gummibärli-deck

I recently bought the "gummibärli" tarot and wanted to know, if one of you has experience with it. "gummibärli" are a sort of sweet, like liquorice, shaped like tiny bears in many different colours. This kind of sweet is quite popular, especially among children of course, in the german speaking part of Europe.
The deck itself is definitely R/W based, apart that all beings on the cards are sort of teddy bears in different colours (even the cat at the Queen of Wands!). It is drawn, no photos.
I just did a couple of readings, but I really feel great joy looking at it and it makes my life definitely a bit happier. Just wanted to know if you got experience with it or what you think about it.

All I can add is that Gummi Bears which are pretty much as you describe except I don't think any taste like lichoriche, are a phenomenon here in the U.S..

And, I've never heard of the deck. I thought there was a Teddy bear deck somewhere, but it was not a 78 card deck.

well, it is not actually like liquorice, but I have no better way describing it. Thank you for mentioning the Teddie´s Tarot - I will have a look at it.

it seems to be the "Little Ted Psychic Fortune Telling Deck - P Wood & S Wintle". Actually it seems to be a 78 cards deck, named to be not tarot, but fortune telling, but as far as I can see somewhere inbetween.

I'm curious...do you have a link where we can see these gummi bears online ?
I like the idea, but I think this deck will make me long for sweets too much ;)

I found only three (copy the lines please, I do not know how to make a link work)

That bear on the death card is a fierce gummy bear, haha.
Well this deck certainly put a smile on my face.
I also looked at the hello kitty-tarot, but this one seems to be a better bargain as the cards of the hello kitty are not of good quality and shipping costs to europe are enormous !
Also I read you get a package of gummi-bears with this deck !
mjam, mjam...

Try this that I found by accident. It looks cute.

The Little Ted deck that Lupo138 mentioned is the one I was thinking of but hadn't managed to find yet.
