Are these actually designed by Haribo? Or is it just a branding on top of a Chinese generic?

I feel comfortable in stating that they are not designed by Haribo, a candy company.

Indeed, but it is odd that it’s apparently only these Haribo batteries with this design. I’d expect them to be white-label products that many companies resell with their own branding.
