Frequently asked questions
What is Vegan Candy and Why is Swedish Candy Leading the Market?
Vegan candy is confectionery that is completely free from all animal-derived ingredients. This means we rigorously exclude:
- Gelatin: The most common culprit in chewy sweets, traditionally made from animal collagen.
- Dairy: No milk or butterfat is used in our chocolates or caramels (often replaced with oat or rice milk).
- Carmine: A red food colouring derived from insects.
- Shellac: A glazing agent sourced from insects.
Swedish candy is leading the way because many Nordic producers have intentionally innovated, replacing animal ingredients with advanced plant-based alternatives without changing the beloved taste and texture. This commitment to ethical ingredients and high quality makes them the best vegan candy option globally.
Are Gummy Candies Vegan?
- Traditionally, no. Most classic gummy candies rely on gelatin for their signature chewy texture.
- The NordicBangers answer is YES! Our range of Swedish gummy candy is often 100% vegan. Pioneering brands use advanced plant-based gelling agents to achieve the perfect bite.
How is Vegan Gummy Candy Made Chewy Without Gelatin?
The secret lies in cutting-edge plant science! Instead of animal gelatin, our Nordic vegan candy uses high-quality, plant-derived substitutes:
- Starches (Potato or Corn): These are commonly used in famous Swedish "foam" and soft-chewy candies (like BUBS) to create a delightfully soft, airy, and non-rubbery texture.
- Pectin: A naturally occurring fiber found in fruits, giving a great chew, similar to jams and jellies.
- Agar-Agar: A fantastic, powerful gelatin substitute derived from seaweed.
