Everyone deserves candy!
For one reason or another, not everybody can indulge in a sugary treat when they're craving something sweet. Luckily, there's a world of sugar alternatives that allow candy companies to replicate their recipes with incredible results! Some, our Candyologists say, are even better than the full-sugar versions!
Our Candyologists have put together a list of their Top 10 Sugar-Free Candies to help your sugar-free shopping a little bit easier. The list does include chocolate and drinks, but whether or not those count as candy is a blog topic for another time!
Valor Sugar Free Chocolate
Imported from Spain, Valor Chocolate is the best No Added Sugar chocolate on the market! Sweetened with stevia and maltitol, two plant-based sweeteners, it quickly conquers any chocolate cravings you may have!
Valor Chocolate has a smooth luxurious texture and a wonderfully melty mouthfeel. Every square of chocolate is rich, creamy, and decadent. And even the milk chocolate bars aren’t too sweet!
Not all Valor Chocolate is created equal, however. While all our Valor bars do not contain any added sugar, not all are Sugar-Free. Some bars, like Orange Cream, do have a tiny bit of naturally occurring sugar from the milk powder and the orange concentrate used to give the chocolate its citrusy zing. Always check the label and consider serving size if you’re choosing a chocolate that must be 100% sugar-free.
If only the best will do, Valor Chocolate is the bar for you!
Double 'D' Sugar Free Marshmallows
Super soft and sugar-free, Double ‘D’ Sugar Free Marshmallows are a cloud of squishy joy!
Perfectly plump and plush, these marshmallows are the perfect addition to a mug of hot chocolate, a s’more, or enjoyed all on their own!
Their primary sweetener is isomalt, which is made from sugar beets! It has virtually no impact on blood sugar or your teeth!
Double ‘D’ doesn’t just do sugar-free marshmallows! They also have sugar-free fruit jellies, butter candy drops, and fruit drops!

Oreo Ultra Thins Zero Sugar Rose (China)
Ultra thin and ultra delicious!
Rose Oreos from China are light, aromatic, and amazing! A thin layer of rose flavoured creme is nestled between two wafer-thin chocolatey cookies.
