Are Rice Krispie treats vegan?
Traditional Rice Krispies treats are not vegan. I created my vegan-friendly recipe so you can enjoy this classic treat without sacrificing flavor.
What kind of marshmallows are vegan?
Dandles is my brand of choice for vegan marshmallows. However, Trader Joe’s, Yummalo, Freedom Mallows, and Mallow Puffs are all other brands that offer vegan options.
What’s the difference between regular marshmallows and vegan marshmallows?
The number one difference between regular marshmallows and vegan marshmallows is the gelatin used to make the former. The gelatin is made from boiled-down animal parts, such as connective tissue.
