Pre-vegan me loved Sour Patch kids and they were very much my favourite sweet. Finding a suitable alternative has been a bit rocky, as whilst there are some great vegan candies out there, nothing is yet a perfect replacement for Sour Patch Kids.
Which means I am quite glad they make vegan sweets themselves. Annoyingly, they have yet to make a vegan version of the actual Sour Patch Kids, but their watermelon sweets are very tasty and help scratch those sugar cravings.
I was therefore optimistic when I found these peach sweets at my local Sainsbury’s. These are – as expected – peach shaped and very much taste like peach. So they do anything ground breaking for the sweet industry? No. But are they a new tasty sweet option on the market? Yes they are.
I bought a packet for £1.40 at Sainsbury’s, and this seems to be the going price for these. Luckily they are also the same price as most other sweet options on the market so luckily there doesn’t seem to be the ‘vegan yax’ added to these.
