10 Homemade Vegan Candy Recipes

By Flora & Vino Leave a Comment

10 homemade vegan candy recipes that taste better than the originals and are made with real ingredients. All of the recipes are gluten-free, too!

Hellooooo, friends! 

It’s that time of year when bags of Halloween candy mixes tower over us near the store check out line. 

Instead of grabbing a bag, why don’t we make some of our own? 

I realized this month that while I have a Halloween Recipe Round Up, I don’t have an archive exclusive for candy. 

I’m fixing that today by bringing you 10 Homemade Vegan Candy Recipes.

I think that these homemade copycat candies taste better than the original and they’re made with real food ingredients. 

They’re all vegan, gluten-free, and refined-sugar-free.

While you never need my permission (or anyone’s, for that matter)  to enjoy a sweet treat, but I hope these recipes inspire you to indulge a little!

This round up is perfect for Halloween, Christmas, Valentine’s Day, or anytime of year when you’re craving candy. 

Bookmark this round up and come back to it to make everything at least once!

Hi, I'm Lauren!
You can find me in the kitchen making healthy and creative plant-based dishes with whole foods, on my yoga mat stretching it out, or curled up with a good book and a glass of red. Searching for balanced living in an unbalanced world. I live it, eat it, drink it, write it, photograph it, and share it all here.
