J.Luehders Soft Vegan Candy, Red Berries (10 x 80g)
J.Luehders Red Berries is a vegan candy option from a German soft candy maker that has been in business since 1909 and describes its recipe as traditionally manufactured. These berry-shaped chews swap out gelatine for pectin, so you get the same soft bite as a traditional gummy without the animal-derived setting agent. Each pouch is produced in Germany and distributed locally by an Australian supplier. This listing is the 10 x 80g case, ten resealable pouches in one order.
Flavour and Ingredients
- Made with 20% real fruit juice from pomegranate, elderberry and blackberry
- Coloured naturally with black carrot juice rather than artificial dyes
- Free from gelatine, artificial colours and artificial flavours
- Gluten free
The tartness of pomegranate and blackberry comes through alongside a deeper, slightly earthy elderberry note, which sets this pack apart from the more tropical profile of our Exotic Fruits pack. Citric acid and potassium citrate provide the classic sour-sweet lolly tang, while starch and a light glazing agent keep the pieces from sticking together in the pouch.

Who This Candy Suits
Because there is no gelatine involved, this berry gummy candy works for vegans, vegetarians, and anyone who avoids animal-derived ingredients for religious or personal reasons. It is a straightforward snacking candy rather than a supplement, so there is nothing to dose out. Keep the pouch in a cool, dry place, and use it as an everyday treat, a lolly bowl for guests, or a party favourite that happens to be vegan friendly.
Prefer a lighter, more tropical flavour? J.Luehders also makes an Exotic Fruits pack with pineapple, apple, mango and grapefruit. Both sit within our Healthy Snacks range alongside other better-for-you treats.
