Why are Savvy Sweets more expensive than traditional sweets?

This is a question we hear often, and the answer is simple: Savvy Sweets are not your typical sweets! 

Our sweets are crafted with premium, health-focused ingredients designed to support your wellbeing journey. Unlike many traditional confectionery brands, we never use gelatine, making our sweets suitable for vegetarians and those looking to avoid animal-derived ingredients.

What Makes Savvy Sweets More Expensive?

Savvy Sweets stand out because of the high-quality ingredients we use, including:

Prebiotic fibre to support gut health.

All-natural flavours and colours free from artificial additives.

No added sugar, for a treat that’s both delicious and mindful of your health.

Plant-based alternatives to gelatine, keeping our sweets vegetarian-friendly.

Our commitment to clean, premium ingredients does mean our production costs are higher than those of traditional sweets, which often rely on cheaper, artificial components.

However, this slight increase in price reflects a significant investment in your long-term health—not just a quick sugar rush. One happy customer put it best:
"Switching to Savvy Sweets was the best decision for my family. Now we enjoy treats guilt-free, knowing we're making a healthier choice!" 

 What Do Traditional Sweets Use to Keep Costs Low?

While traditional sweets might seem like a bargain, they often come with hidden health costs. Here are a few common culprits:

Gelatine: Derived from animal by-products, gelatine is used as a thickener in many sweets. At Savvy, we use plant-based alternatives, keeping our treats completely animal-free without compromising on taste or texture.

Preservatives: Additives like BHT and BHA extend shelf life but have been linked to health concerns such as breathing problems, heart conditions, and even cancer.

Hydrogenated Oils/Trans Fats: These unhealthy fats can increase the risk of heart disease, strokes, and type 2 diabetes.

Excessive Sugar Content: Traditional sweets often contain up to 22 times more sugar than Savvy Sweets, leading to blood sugar spikes and increased risk of chronic diseases.

By choosing Savvy Sweets, you're investing in your health and making a delicious, guilt-free choice.
