Wingstop SOUR PATCH KIDS Wicked Punch Wings (October 2026)
Wingstop teamed up with SOUR PATCH KIDS to launch Wicked Punch, a limited-time sour-then-sweet redberry wing glaze finished with candy Bitz, with Club Wingstop early access on October 23, 2026, and a nationwide launch on October 27, 2026, according to Wingstop announcement covered by USA TODAY and Nation’s Restaurant News.

Candy on chicken sounds like a Halloween prank, and Wingstop knows it. Company president and CEO Michael Skipworth said in the launch announcement that the flavor has no business being this good, and that one bite is all it takes to understand it. The idea is a direct translation of the candy brand promise: sour first, then sweet, delivered as a redberry glaze with actual SOUR PATCH KIDS Bitz scattered on top.
The timing is deliberate. Wicked Punch is the first taste of the SOUR PATCH KIDS 13 Days of Mischief campaign, according to Mondelez International, and it runs through November 5, 2026. That gives it a two-week window that covers Halloween night itself, when a sweet-and-savory dare of a flavor fits the occasion better than any other week of the year.
Deal Details
Wicked Punch is a flavor, not a price deal, so there is no discounted bundle price to report. Wingstop has not announced a nationwide price for the flavor, according to Totally The Bomb, and prices vary by location and protein. What is fixed is the calendar: early access for Club Wingstop members on October 23, nationwide availability on October 27, and an end date of November 5, 2026, while supplies last.
| Item | Deal or detail | Validity |
|---|---|---|
| SOUR PATCH KIDS Wicked Punch glaze | Sour-then-sweet redberry glaze with SOUR PATCH KIDS Bitz | October 27 to November 5, 2026 |
| Club Wingstop early access | Members only, through the Wingstop app | October 23, 2026 |
| Available on | Bone-in wings, boneless wings, tenders, and chicken sandwiches | October 27 to November 5, 2026 |
| Nationwide price | Not announced; menu price varies by location | While supplies last |
The flavor works across all of Wingstop proteins, according to Fast Casual and Nation’s Restaurant News. That matters because it means you are not locked into bone-in wings to try it. Boneless wings, tenders, and chicken sandwiches can all carry the glaze, so pick the format you already like and let the flavor do the surprising.
The partnership itself is a first for both brands in this form. Mondelez senior director Lauryn McDonough said turning the candy sour-then-sweet profile into a wing flavor was exactly the kind of unexpected mischief fans love. Wingstop operates more than 3,000 restaurants worldwide, so the nationwide window from October 27 gives most U.S. customers a nearby chance to try it, as long as their location is participating.
How to Claim
Ordering Wicked Punch follows the normal Wingstop flow, with one date distinction that matters. Club Wingstop members could order it starting October 23 through the app. Everyone else orders from October 27, when it reaches menus nationwide.
- Join Club Wingstop in the app if you want early access to future limited flavors; for Wicked Punch, early access was October 23.
- From October 27, order through Wingstop.com or the Wingstop app, or in store, and select Wicked Punch as your flavor.
- Choose your protein: bone-in wings, boneless wings, tenders, or a chicken sandwich.
- Order before November 5, and earlier if possible, since the flavor is available while supplies last.
If you are ordering for a Halloween party, the tenders or boneless wings are the practical choice, since they are easier to share and eat without a plate full of bones. The candy Bitz topping is the conversation piece either way, so expect the first bite to be a group event.
Terms and Exclusions
The terms are simple but worth stating plainly. Wicked Punch is available at participating Wingstop locations only, from October 27 through November 5, 2026, while supplies last. Club Wingstop early access on October 23 required membership and app ordering. No nationwide price has been announced, so your local menu price is the real price, and it will differ from other locations.
- Available: October 27 to November 5, 2026, at participating locations.
- Early access: October 23, 2026, for Club Wingstop members only.
- Price: not nationally announced; varies by location and protein.
- Ends early if supplies run out at your location.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is Wingstop Wicked Punch?
It is a limited-time SOUR PATCH KIDS collaboration flavor: a sour-then-sweet redberry glaze finished with SOUR PATCH KIDS Bitz, according to Wingstop announcement.
When can I order Wicked Punch?
Club Wingstop members got early access on October 23, 2026. It launched nationwide on October 27, 2026, and runs through November 5, 2026, while supplies last.
Can I get Wicked Punch on tenders or a sandwich?
Yes. According to Fast Casual and Nation’s Restaurant News, the flavor is available across all proteins, including tenders and chicken sandwiches.
How much does Wicked Punch cost?

The Bottom Line
Wicked Punch is the most talked-about Halloween flavor launch of the season precisely because it sounds wrong and might taste right. Sour, then sweet, then savory, with candy crunch on top, available nationwide October 27 through November 5. If you like Wingstop experimental flavors, this is the one to try before it disappears.
Order it on the protein you trust most, check your local price first since none is nationally announced, and do not wait until November 5. Limited flavors with a while supplies last clause have a habit of selling out before the printed end date, and this one has more hype than most.
