Our Organic Vanilla Extract is ethically sourced from the island of Madagascar, where a local co-op of farmers cultivates high-quality, Bourbon vanilla beans. This pure extract has a rich and exotic flavor that lends itself beautifully to baked goods, savory sauces, and more.

Made from organic coconuts ethically grown in the Dominican Republic, our cold-pressed Organic Coconut Oil Spray has a delicate, nutty flavor you’ll love. It’s bottled using natural air pressure technology—which means there are no additives or propellants inside this bottle. Use it to lightly coat pans before roasting, sautéing, and baking.

Vegan Marshmallows by Dandies - Thrive Market

<p>Once <a href="https://thrivemarket.com/blog/vegan-versus-vegetarian"target="_blank">veganism</a> became more mainstream, brands took notice and started creating a range of plant-based options to rival their conventional counterparts. Take Dandies, a marshmallow company that’s been turning heads at campfires and school bake sales since 2008. That’s right—this company only makes one thing, and they do it so well that their marshmallows are a favorite of both vegans and carnivores alike. One of the reasons you might want to make the switch is because traditional marshmallows are known for being loaded with not-so-great ingredients and made with gelatin (an animal-based product). Yes, this family-friendly treat still falls in the dessert category and doesn’t make any claims to be a health food, but with an ingredient-list makeover, you can indulge feeling better about what you’re putting inside of your body. </p>
<h2>The History of Dandies</h2>
<p>Dandies got its start in 2008 when founder Ryan Howard wanted his son to try a marshmallow for the first time. It should have been a straightforward process, but since his son <a href="https://thrivemarket.com/diets/vegan-diet"target="_blank">was vegan</a>, there weren’t any options on the shelf that accommodated people who didn’t eat animal products. Howard was a trained food process engineer, so he started working in the test kitchen to make a marshmallow his son could enjoy. Within a year, Dandies had a processing plant and was ready to launch its first product at a national trade show. By the end of the day, orders had been placed from health food stores across the country and the rest is history. </p>
<h2>Dandies Company Mission</h2>
<p>Dandies wants to make <a href="https://thrivemarket.com/c/marshmallows"target="_blank">a better marshmallow</a> for everyone to enjoy. The family-owned brand is a branch of Chicago Vegan Foods, a brand that’s been making cruelty-free food products since 2001. As Dandies continues to grow, it maintains its core philosophy to put both people and animals first, and create vegan foods that are better for you—and the planet.</p>
<h2>Benefits of Dandies</h2>
