Yep! The entire Smart Sweets range is vegan-friendly.

Our Smart Sweets range is sweetened using a Prebiotic Fibre, meaning they are good for your gut and you can enjoy the whole bag.

We use Stevia as a natural sweetener in many of our products. We also use sugar alcohols in some of our products. Isomalt is used in the recipe for our sugar free hard candies, and Maltitol is used our soft candies; both ingredients are naturally derived from plants and have been used in Australia for decades. They have been proven to be safe, and contain zero sugar, are dental friendly, GMO-free and a low glycaemic response.

While Isomalt and Maltitol are commonly used in sugar free foods, they can have a laxative effect for some people when too much is consumed. It’s best to follow the recommended serving size on the packets of each sugar free sweet.

We wrap our hard candies when being packed to ensure they do not get sticky or crack. We have trialled a number of paper films to replace the use of plastic, but have not yet found a solution that keeps our candies in good condition and works with our packaging system.

We are, however, always researching options are are currently investigating a compostable film. So, watch this space!
