SmartSweets first made a name for itself with gummy bears and now it is introducing two new kinds of plant-based candies—Sour Blast Buddies and Sweet Fish—that offer a better-for-you alternative to some of the most beloved confections available.
These free-from candies boast a miniscule amount of sugar, just three grams per bag, and are made without sugar alcohols, artificial colors, sweeteners and GMO ingredients. While the Sour Blast Buddies are naturally colored and flavored to taste like berry and citrus fruits, the SmartSweets Sweet Fish also celebrate natural flavors and an iconic red color.
With these new products, SmartSweets is setting itself apart with "the first candy that kicks sugar—naturally" and still allows consumers of all ages to indulge, guilt-free.
