Candy for the Feingold Diet

Since I'm on the subject of candy and special diets, I had to mention another store, The Squirrel's Nest, that makes and sells candy suitable for the Feingold Diet, without any artificial colors, flavors, or preservatives. They make different kinds of chocolates, so that children who can't tolerate the artificial stuff don't feel left out.

Although we can't really eat most of their products anymore because of E's allergies (which we're praying he outgrows!!), I've ordered from them a number of times in the past. Their candy was delicious, they were always friendly, and their service was great. Definitely the type of company I like to support!

Candy for Special Diets


With so many holidays celebrations that include candy and other treats that the kids can't eat, I'm always on the lookout for products that meet our needs. I think I hit the jackpot today! I haven't ordered from them yet, but I'm definitely going to.

The company is Natural Candy Store.com. They have a huge selection of candy and they label every single type of candy as to whether it's allergen-free, gluten-free, vegan, organic, suitable for Feingold Stage 1 or 2, corn syrup-free, Kosher, and Made in the USA.

Natural Candy Store.com offers all sorts of different types of jelly beans, gummy candies, hard candies, and gum, all without any of those artificial colors that drive my kids (and ultimately, ME!) up the wall. They even sell cotton candy, which is something I didn't think I'd ever be able to give my kids!

None of the candy is manufactured on site, but they do include all allergy information given to them from each company whose product they distribute. Works for me!
