At the 2022 Sweets & Snacks Expo, OCHO Candy introduced Plant-Based Caramels in Dark Chocolate. The soft and creamy caramels are made with European cultured vegan butter by Miyoko's and they can be enjoyed in a variety of sweet flavors, including Classic, Chocolate, Coffee and Cinnamon.
Packaged in 3.5-ounce bags, the plant-based caramels share the benefit of a better-for-you snack that's not just vegan but also organic and fair trade.
The texture-rich caramels are better-for-you snacks that speak to consumers by combining real ingredients with traditional candy-making techniques. OCHO Candy was created to provide candy lovers with a delicious, organic alternative to traditional candy bars, and these plant-powered caramels join existing options like dark chocolate coconut minis and peanut butter bars.
