Fanta Facts
Fanta Orange isn’t just a thirst-quencher—it’s a secret weapon in the kitchen!
Launched in 1940 as a fruit-flavored alternative to Coca-Cola, the Fanta brand expanded globally after World War II, with the orange flavor becoming its most iconic and widely recognized variant.
The soft drink was created in Germany when the Coca-Cola bottling plants were cut off from the American supply of Coca-Cola syrup.
Today, Fanta is one of the world’s leading soft drink brands, known for its bright colors and wide range of fruit flavors, including Fanta Grape.
