This post about natural candy and better Easter basket options was brought to you by The Lovely Candy Company, who provided a media sample to facilitate my review. All opinions are my own and honest.
Still looking for new ways to stuff those Easter baskets? Well, it’s time for the chemical and dye-laden jellybeans and other junky stuff to move over and make room for the newest candy in town. Made with all natural ingredients, Lovely Candy is one option that you just might not want to part with when it comes time to play Easter bunny.
Lovely Candy is a perfect option for those craving better-for-you sweet treats without any artificial ingredients or colorings. The line is also certified gluten-free, non-GMO, certified kosher, contains no high fructose corn syrup, and the fruit chews are vegan.
Get them at Target!
Think a product like this would have to be ordered online? Found in a specialty shop in some city? Nope. 6-ounce bags of Lovely Candy Original Chewy Caramels, Chocolate Swirl Caramels and Superfruit Chews in Cranberry, Raspberry and Blueberry can be found in Target’s new Choose Well section (in the candy aisle), which are aimed helping health-conscious consumers find options they can feel good about.
But how do they taste?
OMG…if you have a sweet tooth, run. Don’t walk. I’m not kidding. You’ll taste the purity in these candies, and then you’ll keep a bag in your desk drawer (like I do.) They really are the best tasting caramels and fruit chews I’ve ever had. (And this is coming from a pretty seasoned candy fanatic, and everyone I’ve shared with agrees!)

I have tried several of the candies made by the Lovely Candy Company and I can tell you first hand that they were some of the best candies I have ever tasted. I like that they are gluten free. I wish that they could make the candies in a gluten free sugar free line especially the chocolate swirl caramel.
A new candy I would like to see them make would be a chocolate swirl caramel pecan clusters sugar free and gluten free.
Can you make snickers bars healthy?
I’d love to see licorice and sweedish fish done healthy.
I’d like to see sugar-free caramel turtles or sugar-free coconut bars.
