The season of love is back which means some sweet cards and also a lot of sugary treats. If you are looking to pass along something with better ingredients and/or products that are a little lower in sugar, this list is for you. Check out some of our recent favorites:
1. Yum Earth: Maker of organic and allergy-free lollipops, they have two great options for Valentine’s Day with their Organic Valentine’s Fruit Pops and their Organic Valentine’s Gummy Fruits.
The pops also have a space where you can personalize a message for a special Valentine.
Both options are vegan, non-GMO, organic, gluten-free and nut free and made with organic concentrate (Apple, Carrot, Pumpkin, Blackcurrant), among other ingredients.
2. Made Good Snacks: We love Made Good snacks and their granola bars are regularly on rotation in our kids’ lunch boxes. For Valentine’s Day, you can get the Made Good Organic Chocolate Chip Mini Granola Bars at Target.
These portable bites are also safe for schools since the bars are made in a facility free from the most common allergens; peanut, tree nut, soy, dairy, egg, fish, shellfish, gluten, and sesame. Bonus: they’re organic, gluten free, non-GMO project verified, made with whole grains, low in sugar and the granola bars even include a full serving of vegetables. Perfect for Valentine’s Day or an easy addition to the lunch box.
3. UnReal: For a chocolate fix, UnReal is where it’s at. The line features UnReal’s twist on the classics where you’ll find a line that uses organic and non-GMO project verified and sustainable ingredients. Some products are also also certified gluten free and vegan. This includes dark chocolate covered peanuts, milk chocolates, dark chocolates with crispy quinoa, dark chocolate peanut butter cups, to name a few options.
4. Annie’s Snacks: For a non-sugary treat, you can fill up a mini bag with Annie’s crackers and a sweet Valentine’s Day card. Their crackers are made with 100% real organic cheese and sourced from non-GMO ingredients.
