The new year calls for new habits, and health is a common theme for our resolutions. But that doesn’t mean you have to leave sweets in 2024 — we’ve pulled together some brands that satisfy without all the junk. Keep your sweet tooth healthy this new year by packing your pantry with these four delicious treats!
MIGHTYLICIOUS
For a sweet and healthy addition to your sweets repertoire, we love MIGHTYLICIOUS and their line of gourmet, all-natural gluten-free cookies. They use clean ingredients you can pronounce to make delicious cookies you can feel good about eating — all of their cookies are certified Kosher, gluten-free, and non-GMO. You can find them in delicious flavors like Brown Butter Chocolate Chip, Salted Peanut butter, Double Dutch chocolate, and Oatmeal Raisin. They also have a vegan Chocolate Chip cookie that is just as delicious and chewy as their regular counterparts. Pick up a bag for your next party, or level up with a variety pack to give multiple of their delicious choices a try.
Wiley Wallaby’s Licorice
For a delicious twist on a classic, we love Wiley Wallaby Licorice. They take the licorice we know and love and introduce new and inventive flavors that bring their taste to new levels. Their wide range of gourmet flavors range from Green Apple and Huckleberry, to Hot Cinnamon. They also have Grab & Go mini versions and Gluten-Free options, and of course, my favorite – their Sourrageous Sour Licorice Drops. Each of these selections offer a new take on licorice that is bursting with flavor – and totally free of high fructose corn syrup, making it an option that feels just as good as it tastes.
Sweet Chaos
For the perfect afterschool snack, we love the wide variety of seasoned and drizzled popcorns by Sweet Chaos. They promise to help you escape the chaos of the day with an indulgent sweet or salty treat. Their popcorns are all made with all-natural ingredients you can feel good about — they are certified Non-GMO as well as free of preservatives, artificial flavors and colors, and even gluten. They boast a wide variety of flavors, both sweet and savory — choose from indulgent picks like Pumpkin Spice or Cake Batter, or flavor-packed options like Jalapeño Blue Cheese or Dill Pickle. With dozens of flavors bound to entice, you’ll find yourself reaching for these just as much as your little ones. Keep an eye out for their seasonal Fall and Winter drizzles, with options like Pumpkin Spice and Iced Gingerbread!
Antonina’s Gluten Free Bakery
For when you’re hit with a major sweet tooth, we love Antonina’s Gluten Free Bakery and their selection of gluten-free muffins and cakes. Their unique blend of gluten-free flavors make their cakes moist and fluffy, and as Antonina’s loves to say, you won’t believe it’s gluten-free. I particularly love their cupcakes, a light and fluffy cake with the perfect balance of sweet buttercream frosting. Based in Puyallup, Washington, Antonina’s ships nationwide – or check out the store locator on their website to find their products near you.
