While most caramels are made by heating sugar, syrup and milk, JJ's Sweets introduced its coconut caramels as a healthier, vegan-friendly version of most sweets on the market today.
The Cocomels come in a variety of flavors like Espresso, Sea Salt and Vanilla, each of which is made with a creamy coconut milk base, in place of a traditional dairy option. The Coconut Palm Sugar Cocomels are also a standout in the brand's lineup because they are naturally sweetened with organic brown rice syrup rather than cane sugar.
As well as offering confections such as its 'Naked Cocomels,' the brand also offers 'Chocolate-Covered Cocomels,' which are encased in a rich, decadent layer of dark chocolate.
