The Scrunchems Sugar Controller is a soft squishy toy moulded into the shape of a games controller and packed with a thick, sugar-like gel. Press it and the gel shifts slowly under your fingers, giving a smooth, weighted squeeze that keeps returning slowly to shape.

Made for gamers and squish fans

The controller shape is the draw here. It sits naturally in two hands in exactly the way a real controller does, which makes it an easy thing to pick up between rounds, during a loading screen, or while watching someone else play. It is silent, needs no batteries, and will not distract anyone else in the room.

A different feel to a foam stress ball

Most stress toys snap straight back into shape. The sugar-style gel inside the Sugar Controller behaves differently, moving slowly and giving a grainy, weighted resistance that many people find more satisfying. That slower response is why gel-filled squishies have become the standout format in the Scrunchems range.

• Thick sugar-like gel filling. Gives a smooth, slow squeeze with a distinctive grainy texture.
• Games controller design. An instantly recognisable shape that sits comfortably in two hands.
• Silent and battery free. Nothing to charge, nothing to switch on, and no noise in use.
• Collectable. Part of the wider Scrunchems squishy range, which is built around collecting the set.
• Low-cost gifting. A strong choice for party bags, stocking fillers, reward jars, and pocket money treats.

Why squishy toys are so popular

Repetitive hand movement is a well-established way to settle restless hands during a quiet moment, a car journey, or a break from a screen. A squishy toy gives that outlet in a form that is small, silent, and easy to use anywhere, which is why squishies have become a fixture on desks, in bags, and beside consoles across the UK.

• What is the Scrunchems Sugar Controller?
  It is a soft squishy fidget toy shaped like a games controller and filled with thick, sugar-like gel. The gel gives a smooth, slow squeeze with a grainy texture, rather than the quick bounce back of a foam stress ball. It is part of the wider Scrunchems squishy range.
• What is inside the Sugar Controller squishy?
  Inside is a thick, sugar-style gel held within a soft outer skin. The gel is what creates the slow, weighted squish and the distinctive grainy feel under the fingers. The filling is not intended to be released, and the toy should be thrown away if the outer skin splits.
• Does it work like a real games controller?
  No, it is purely a squishy toy and has no buttons, electronics, or connectivity. It is shaped and decorated to look like a games controller, which is what makes it a popular desk toy and gift for gamers. There is nothing to charge, pair, or switch on.
• Who is the Sugar Controller for?
  It is aimed at gamers and squishy collectors of any age, from children through to adults. It works well as a desk toy, a gift, or an addition to an existing Scrunchems collection. Please check the packaging for the age marking before giving it to a younger child.
• Is it good for fidgeting and stress relief?
  Yes. The slow, repetitive squeeze gives restless hands something to do while you read, watch television, travel, or take a break between games. It is silent, needs no batteries, and is small enough to keep on a desk or in a bag.
• How is a gel squishy different from a normal stress ball?
  A gel squishy moves more slowly and feels heavier in the hand. Foam stress balls compress and spring straight back, whereas the thick sugar-style gel shifts gradually and returns to shape at its own pace, which many people find more satisfying to use repeatedly.
• How do I clean a squishy toy?
  Wipe it clean with a damp cloth and dry it thoroughly afterwards. Do not put it in water, in a washing machine, or near direct heat. Keeping it away from grit, sharp edges, and rough surfaces will help stop the outer skin from splitting.
• Are these a good party bag or stocking filler?
  Yes, they are a popular low-cost gift for party bags, stocking fillers, reward jars, and pocket money treats. The games controller shape has broad appeal, which makes it an easy choice when you need something that will suit a range of ages.
