Michael Hemsworth — January 7, 2021 — Marketing
These new Mars vegan candy bars are being launched by the brand in the UK to help consumers enjoy some of their favorite treats in a way that better suits their lifestyle. The chocolates will come in two varieties including Bounty Vegan and Topic Vegan, which are dairy-free versions of the namesake originals they are based on. The products come in response to the brand's launch of the vegan Galaxy chocolate range in 2019 and its continued growth of its free-from product varieties.
General Manager at Mars Chocolate Drinks & Treats Michelle Frost spoke on the new vegan candy bars saying, "We are so pleased to be offering more consumers the opportunity to try our brands. Galaxy Vegan has proved incredibly popular and we believe that Topic Vegan and Bounty Vegan will add something excitingly different to the free-from category."
