Caramel Sans Cow’s Milk?
Caramel is, in essence, caramelized sugar. But to get that chewy texture, most candy makers will mix in heavy cream, butter, and/or milk. Suddenly, vegans and anyone with a dairy intolerance is left in a lurch.
Well we say “no more!” to that. All of the caramels you’ll find here are 100% dairy-free.
Top Caramels & Chews Brands
These folks are the maestro’s of caramel and chews:
Cocomels
Most of the caramels on our website come courtesy of Cocomels. This dairy-free caramel maker uses coconut milk in place of heavy-cream and other animal products to create chewy treats that are even more delicious than the majority of milk-based caramels. Like many a great idea, the concept for Cocomels began at a local farmer’s market. Today, the brand can be found in stores all over the country.
Torie & Howard
If you’re into a fruitier chew, then let us introduce you to Torie & Howard. The dynamic duo has a straightforward mission, and that’s to make wholesome snacks that taste great. Every one of their chews is made without preservatives, gluten, dairy, soy, dyes, or preservatives.

Do you love ginger? So do Abbie and Bruce Leeson. They love it so much, in fact, that in 1984, they started a company called The Ginger People. For more than 20 years, they’ve only used the highest-quality, most sustainable ginger in all of their products - and that includes their marquee commodity: ginger chews.
