Dandies: Making a Better Marshmallow Chicago Vegan Foods’All-Natural, Gelatin-Free Marshmallows are the First to be Non-GMO Verified

Chicago, IL – The marshmallows from our childhood desperately needed an ingredient list makeover. That’s why Chicago Vegan Foods, a familyowned company with vegan values, created Dandies. The first Non-GMO Project Verified marshmallows on the market, Dandies are made with all-natural ingredients and completely free of gelatin, artificial ingredients, and high fructose corn syrup. The products are produced in the company’s dedicated facility, which is free of dairy, eggs, peanuts, and tree-nuts. Dandies marshmallows are also free of wheat, gluten and corn, 100% vegan, and certified kosher by the Chicago Rabbinical Council.

The best part is, these marshmallows are indistinguishable from their conventional counterparts. Dandies are air puffed, which gives them a traditional texture and flavor that melts and tastes just like the marshmallows we grew up with. Light, fluffy and kid-friendly, Dandies are perfect for roasting over a fire, making gooey summer s’mores, cooking up crisp rice treats, or putting the finishing touch on a loving cup of hot chocolate.

“Marshmallows should make people happy, not be made with scary ingredients,” shared Dan Reed, Marketing Director for Chicago Vegan Foods. “We’ve updated this classic comfort food to be in line with today’s values, and the appreciation we’ve received for Dandies from families across the country has been incredible.”

Marshmallows are available in big (campfire style) and mini sizes at Whole Foods Market and other natural foods stores across the U.S., Canada and select International markets. The SRP is $4.99 for a 10oz package. Dandies are also available for foodservice applications.
