Wizz Fizz is an Australian brand of sherbet manufactured by Fyna Foods Australia Pty Ltd.
Wizz Fizz is available in 12.5g paper sachets in the form of a very fine powder, and it is most commonly sold at convenience stores and supermarkets. The sweet is known for its small plastic shovel, that allows mess-free consumption of the sherbet straight from the sachet.
