Unlike candy that's only created to satisfy a sweet tooth, Essential Candy sets itself apart by sharing "Candy With A Purpose," as its products are infused with all-natural essential oils. The essential oil-infused candies were created to offer support to a friend combating cancer and help manage some of the side effects of chemotherapy. The vegan, low-carb, low-calorie candies are free from artificial colors, flavors, preservatives or sweeteners, and they boast just two grams of sugar per piece. Essential Candy's Signature Blends include the Baja Blend, the Clarity Blend for congestion, headache and allergy relief, and the Digestive Blend with lemon, ginger and peppermint.
Essential Candy also offers CBD hard candies with similar benefits.
