2. Lily’s Sweets

Lily’s offers no-sugar added chocolate that aims to show chocolate can be an everyday indulgence, not a guilty pleasure. The chocolate bars come in many flavors, though we’re partial to the salted almond. With so much variety, they make a tasty gift or snack to enjoy this winter. Buy them here.

3. Linda’s Lollies

What’s a better gift than a bouquet of gourmet lollipops? Linda’s offers exotic, delectable flavors in long-lasting lollipop form. Flavors include pina colada, mango chile, mint chocolate chip, and mocha cappuccino. They will turn your tongue an unnaturally bright color, but for the sugar rush and novelty, it’s worth it. Buy them here.

The OWYN drinks deliver all nine essential amino acids, are a good source of fiber, high source of vegan omega 3 and blend kale, spinach and broccoli. If you’re relying on OWYN to get you through the day, you can rest assured that there is nothing artificial and the drink is gluten free, vegan and free from the top eight food allergens. Buy them here.

Truth Bars are prebiotic and probiotic, scrumptious to taste (we love the chocolate peanut butter crunch bars) and an ideal size for a sweet snack. They’re non-GMO, low in sugar and contain Omega 3s, to boot. Truth Bars emphasize good gut health and pride themselves on using “ingredients with a purpose.” Buy them here.
