Almost every mushroom gummy on the market follows the same formula: a mushroom blend plus a flavor. Wunder is the one line we carry that does something else. Three of its four bags add a second botanical to the mushroom blend, each a different plant with its own history.
Blue lotus, kava kava, and kanna. This review covers what each is, how the four bags differ, and what to know before you pick one.
The Short Version
- Four bags, three of them with a second botanical added
- Pink Lemonade with blue lotus, Grape with kava kava, Kanna, and Strawnana
- No THC, CBD, psilocybin, or amanita
- Pectin based
- Third-party lab tested
- Adults 21 and over only
Why This Line Is Different
On most of our website, the flavor is the only thing separating one bag from another. Same blend, seven flavors, pick the one you like. That is true of Mothership, Road Trip, Moocah, and our own house brand.
Wunder is not that. Choosing between these four is choosing between botanicals, and blue lotus, kava, and kanna are genuinely unrelated plants from three different parts of the world. That makes this the one line where reading the labels actually matters.
The Four Bags
Pink Lemonade with Blue Lotus
Blue lotus (Nymphaea caerulea) is a water lily native to the Nile. It appears throughout ancient Egyptian art and architecture, carved into columns and painted on tomb walls, and it has been used in traditional practice for thousands of years.
Paired here with a pink lemonade flavor, sweet with a citrus edge.

Grape with Kava Kava
Kava (Piper methysticum) is a plant native to the South Pacific. The root has been prepared as a traditional beverage for centuries across Fiji, Vanuatu, Tonga, and Hawaii, where it holds a place in ceremony and social gathering.
Grape flavor, ten gummies per bag.
Important: kava carries a documented association with liver injury. Do not use if you have liver problems or a history of liver disease; do not combine with alcohol; and talk to a healthcare provider first if you take anything processed by the liver. This is the one bag in the line with a real contraindication attached, and it is worth taking seriously.
Kanna
Kanna (Sceletium tortuosum) is a small succulent from the dry western regions of South Africa, used by the Khoisan people for centuries. It belongs to the Aizoaceae family and is not related to mushrooms or to anything else in this lineup.
If you're specifically after kanna, we also carry Ferris Wheel Kanna Gummies, which are built around kanna with no mushrooms at all.
Strawnana
The plain one. Strawberry and banana flavor with the mushroom blend on its own, no second botanical added.
This is the bag to start with if you want the Wunder blend without adding a plant you have not tried before.
Wunder also makes Maxx mushroom tablets in Blue Razz, Watermelon, Mango, and Grape, one tablet per bag scored into four sections.
How to Choose
- New to the line: Strawnana, since it is the blend on its own
- Curious about an ancient Egyptian botanical: Pink Lemonade with blue lotus
- Curious about kava: Grape, provided the liver caution does not apply to you
- Curious about kanna: the Kanna bag, or Ferris Wheel if you would rather skip mushrooms entirely
Worth saying plainly: these are not interchangeable the way seven flavors of the same gummy are. Read what is in the bag before you order.
What Is in Them
The base is the same across the line: water, cane sugar, pectin, sodium citrate, tapioca syrup, natural colors and flavors, citric acid solution, and a proprietary mushroom blend. Pectin rather than gelatin.
What changes is the addition. Blue lotus extract in the Pink Lemonade bag, kava kava root in the Grape bag, kanna extract in the Kanna bag, and nothing extra in the Strawnana.
Every bag has a Certificate of Analysis from an independent laboratory, linked on its own product page.
Suggested Use and Storage
Follow the label on the bag rather than anything you read online, including this page. Store in a cool, dry place, away from direct heat and sunlight, and keep sealed between uses. Keep out of reach of children and pets.
Shipping
FedEx Express or USPS Ground Advantage at checkout. Orders before 11:00 am PT ship the same business day.
Frequently Asked Questions
What makes the Wunder line different from other mushroom gummies?
Three of the four bags add a second botanical to the mushroom blend rather than just a flavor. Blue lotus, kava kava, or kanna, each a different plant from a different part of the world.
What is blue lotus?
Blue lotus, or Nymphaea caerulea, is a water lily native to the Nile with a long history in ancient Egypt, where it appears throughout the art and architecture.
What is kava kava?
Kava, or Piper methysticum, is a plant native to the South Pacific. Its root has been used to prepare a traditional beverage for centuries across Fiji, Vanuatu, Tonga, and Hawaii.

Kanna, or Sceletium tortuosum, is a succulent native to South Africa, used by the Khoisan people for centuries. It is neither a mushroom nor related to the other botanicals in this line.
Which Wunder bag should I start with?
Strawnana, since it is the mushroom blend on its own with no second botanical added.
Is there anything I should know before trying the kava bag?
Yes. Kava carries a documented association with liver injury. Do not use if you have liver problems or a history of liver disease; do not combine with alcohol; and consult a healthcare provider first if you take medication processed by the liver.

They are pectin-based rather than gelatin-based.
Will these interact with my medication?
Kanna acts on serotonin and should not be combined with SSRIs, SNRIs, MAOIs, or other serotonergic medication without medical advice. Kava should not be combined with any liver-processed substances without medical advice. Talk to a healthcare provider before use if you take prescription medication.
Do I need to be 21 to order?
Yes. Sold to adults 21 and over only.
The Bottom Line
Wunder is the line for people who want to know what is in the bag beyond the flavor. Three real botanicals with three real histories, plus a plain option for anyone who would rather skip the extra ingredient. It rewards reading the label, which we can't say about most of the shelf.
