Candy Corn from Sweet's offers an alternative to traditional candy corn confections, most of which are artificially colored and flavored.
Unlike most candy corn pieces that feature the classic three-stripe design, these ones forgo tradition to introduce solid pieces in three different dye-free colors. These white, yellow and orange pieces are created with flavorful natural fruit and vegetable extracts from pumpkin, carrot and apple. The non-GMO, gluten-free seasonal candy corn treats are made with other natural ingredients like cane sugar, tapioca syrup and coconut oil, offering a healthy take on a classic Halloween candy.
During the Halloween season and beyond, many consumers are looking to indulge their sweet tooth with free-from treats, especially ones that eliminate artificial ingredients in favor of more healthful, natural options.
