Yummy Earth Helps Green Halloween! Have a Happy Healthy Halloween!

It all started with two dads, their kids, and a sweet tooth! Two dads with a love of lollipops realized their kids would inherit this sweet toothed fancy--as all kids do. Committed to feeding their children Jonah, Rose, Leo, and Moises organic foods--untainted by the Yucky chemicals, pesticides and dyes that invade so many of the products we consume--yet eager to allow them the childhood fun and joys of candy Yummy Earth was born!

Every year I dread Halloween! The candy mania and the worry that my children are stuffing themselves full of chemical and dye laden, globs of sugar. We also remember however the important roll candy has played in our lives. I think many of us can still name our favourite candies and feel the surge of childhood memories well-up as we peruse the candy displays by checkout counters. A peppermint from a grandparent a lollipop from the local post mistress, candy forms indelible memories of happy times! I would love to form those memories for my children with Yummy Earth organic candies! No MSG, artificial dyes, and flavours, Yummy Earth's lollipops owe their fabulously luscious taste to their all natural ingredients earning them the moniker "The Best Taste on Earth!" and praise by the TODAY Show food editor as "The Best Lollipop I've ever tasted." But I wasn't going to take their word for it I wanted to hear it from the real candy experts...kids like mine! The Organic Lollipops, Organic Gummy Worms and Organic Gummy Bears passed their extensive taste testing with flying colours! Yummy Earth Organic Gummy Bears, launched this Halloween, come in a variety of explosive flavors such as Pomegranate Pucker, Strawberry Smash and Sour Apple Tart!

After my children's initial taste testing they were ecstatic to share this new found delight with their friends. I sent Yummy Earth lollipops to school for all their classmates and the response was a resounding, "They Rock!" {and yes this is a quote}. They even tempted the teachers' taste buds. Admittedly the Artisanal Candy in the Blood Orange Cocktail flavour and the Organic Candy drops satisfied my husband's insatiable sweet tooth and even tempted me with their delicious real fruit flavour!


What makes Yummy Earth so much better you ask? Yummy Earth candies taste great because of the real fruit extracts, organic black current, apple, mango, pomegranate just to name a few. You would even be surprised to learn that there are a few sneaky organic vegetables hiding amongst the listed ingredients! Yummy Earth candies are also great for alternative dietary needs they are gluten, casein, dairy, and nut-free and are 100% vegan. The certified organic ingredients are planet friendly so Yummy Earth can transform your Halloween to Green and Healthy. The fun and flavour without the scary ingredients!

One lucky reader will receive a Yummy Earth care package of: YummyEarth Organic Lollipops Family Pack, 3 packages of YummyEarth Organic Gummy Bears, 3 packages of YummyEarth Organic Gummy Worms!
