This recipe for homemade vegan candy corn allows you to indulge in a festive fall treat while also adhering to your dietary restrictions. From Julie at the Free People blog, the alternative autumnal sweet is easy to make as well.
The vegan candy corn contains far less ingredients than the standard version you would find on grocery store shelves. According to its creator, it also tastes surprisingly similar to cookie dough. You can make your own at home with Lyle's golden syrup, vanilla, coconut oil, confectioner's sugar, gluten-free or tapioca flour. To get the characteristic tri-color variety, food coloring is used.
This fresh vegan treat is perfect for this time of year, especially with Halloween coming up right around the corner. They also make a thoughtful gift.
