Let's cut to the chase. First, we'll list our top ten picks for vegan sweets. Then, we'll expand on our top picks by mentioning a few sweets we didn't mention, but that might still be of interest to many vegans. We'll end with a discussion about the limitations of most sweets that are suitable to vegans.
Barratt's sweet-maker, Dip Dab, was founded in 1848 by Shoreditch residents. This popular bag of sherbet topped with a sugary lolly mix has been enjoyed for many generations. A sour version of the Dip Dab was also launched in 2015 and is vegan friendly.
For this article, we will be focusing on sweets in the classic sense. This means that they come in packets such as Starbursts or Skittles. These are the ones you might have bought in your local newsagent back in the day (assuming that you're old enough). We haven't included chocolate bars or boxes of chocolates so chocoholics need to visit our vegan chocolate page.
