Chicago Vegan Foods will be launching its Dandies vegan marshmallows at UK ASDA stores next month in an effort to appeal to marshmallow fans that are seeking a plant-based alternative to the campfire treat.
Before its partnership with ASDA, Chicago Vegan Foods sold Dandies in the United States and Canada at specialty stores. The decision to partner with the family-friendly, budget-conscious retailer is one that will cut the cost of the treat while making the plant-based specialty item more accessible to the masses.
In addition to its all natural classic flavor, Dandies vegan marshmallows will also be released in a seasonal pumpkin flavor. The snack will be available in 5-ounce packs and is the perfect plant-based treat for the fall season ahead.
