Vegan Halloween Sweets

 

Sweets can be a bit of a minefield for vegans - some sweets that look like they should be full of animal products don't, and some that look like they should be fine are actually full of gelatine, E120 or beeswax! Thankfully companies are being more proactive with their labelling, but here is a rundown of some easy-to-find vegan treats just in time for halloween 👻
