Although candy is probably one of the easier foods to find gluten-free options available in your traditional grocery stores, ingredients seem to always be changing (especially with candies), so it is important to verify that your candies are and remain gluten-free every so often.
I’ve found the easiest thing to do is to review your favorite candies every year around Halloween time, but each person can find a system that works for them. To date, the best resource I’ve found is the gluten-free candy list maintained by our friend Nancy Lapid of About.com.
As of todays’ date, her list includes information about the following companies:
- Nestle USA
- Wrigley’s
- Jelly Belly
- Just Born Candy Company
- Necco
- Fannie May Chocolates
- See’s Candies
- Let’s Do Organic Gummy Bears
You’ll find more specific information about each company (including which products they are known for), and contact information to contact and verify products are still indeed gluten-free. If you are interested, you can check out the updated gluten-free candy resource here.
