JJ's Sweets



Recently, JJ's Sweets generously sent me samples of their Cocomels, Chocolate-Covered Cocomels, and hard candies. The Fleur de Sel and Original varieties of Cocomels were my favorites of the bunch with their coconut milk-based creaminess and hint of coconut flavor. They were delicious!

For my taste, the dark chocolate overwhelmed the caramels, completely masking their delicate flavor. The hard candies were sweet and lemony and reminded me of old-fashioned ribbon candy. There are some very interesting flavor combinations of the hard candies available on their website that would make lovely gifts, too.

You can order directly from the JJ's website or from Vegan Essentials.

Oh, these caramels are to die for! I haven't tried the chocolate-covered variety, but I can imagine how incredible that would be...

Thanks all, much appreciated. If you have a moment please take a second to vote for Cocomels in the latest VegNews poll. We're up for "favorite vegan candy"
