Vegan Sweet Hampers & Boxes
Did you know, not all sweets are suitable for vegans? In fact, many of our favourite pick ‘n’ mix varieties, candies and chocolates contain animal products, meaning that they’re not vegan friendly.
The gummy texture in chewy sweets such as jelly babies and fruit gums isn’t made using ingredients such as glucose syrup, modified potato starch or even maize starch… In fact, it is made by using gelatin, and the glossy shine on some sweets and candy is created using beeswax. Plus some colourings actually contain conchiel, which believe it or not is made using ground up beetles!
Therefore, if you’re looking for a gift for a sweet tooth vegan, it’s important to do your research.
Luckily, the Sweet Hamper Company has made it easy to find vegan sweets and gifts appropriate for vegan diets.
