Eventually, Rowntree’s was bought by Nestlé, and today it continues to market products such as Fruit Pastilles, Fruit Gums, and Jelly Tots, which are the ones vegans are interested in when inquiring about their products. The new shapes were designed by a Nestlé employee who has worked for the firm for almost three decades and will carefully hand carve the mould for each new sweet before it is taken to mass production. There are over 100 shapes, in four different textures and six different flavors. Billions of combinations

We have had many requests from consumers over the years asking if we can make Fruit Pastilles vegetarian or vegan. We want the brand to be enjoyed by as many consumers as possible and so we are delighted to be able to introduce our new vegan-friendly recipe across the full range of sweets. Sharing bags containing only Squish’ems (squishy foam and fruity jelly in one sweet), Foamies (foamy sweets) and now sour sweets, Randoms Sours, are joining the existing range of Rowntree’s Randoms from this week, the company announced.

On the other hand, when we buy their vegan products, we can compel them to launch more vegan products, which is quite impactful in the grand scheme of things. So, which Rowntree’s products are vegan? Rowntree’s original product range is not vegan because they contain gelatin. However, they have recently introduced a new range of Fruit Pastilles and Jelly Tots that don’t contain any animal ingredients. We are often faced with ethical complications when it comes to buying products from giant companies, such as Nestlé, which profit largely from products of animal origin.A Nestlé spokesperson said: “Sweet tastes and trends change over the years and Tooty Frooties have become much less popular in the decades since their launch. In 2019, people prefer the jelly and foamy sweets you find in Rowntree’s Randoms and that’s why we’ve decided to concentrate on new products under the Randoms brand.” Rowntree’s are the nation’s fruity favourite, with more single tubes of Fruit Pastilles sold than any other fruit confectionery product in the UK. In fact, our products are enjoyed by 15 million people every year! www.rowntrees.co.uk

Rowntree’s: Which Sweets are Vegan?

Even though the three products Rowntree’s has launched are vegan, there are still some vegans who aren’t too receptive to the idea of consuming products from a company like Nestlé which has an unethical footprint. Should we buy from companies like Nestlé? Nestlé has announced a major refresh for its historic Rowntree’s brand and an expansion of its Randoms range. We’ve been working very hard to make this year the best yet for Randoms and are delighted to introduce new shapes, tastes, textures and flavours that all our consumers will absolutely love!”

Hannah Smithson, assistant brand manager for Rowntree’s said: “ We are so excited to announce all of this new news for Rowntree’s Randoms’. There is truly something for everyone in the new range whether you prefer the jelly Squish’ems, the foamy sweets or something a little more on the sour side​. Given the experience from this consumer, I’d say that Rowntree’s Fruit Pastilles are not gluten-free. Are Rowntree’s Fruit Pastilles Halal? In other words, the company will begin to invest its profits into creating more vegan products, which may entice non-vegan consumers to eat vegan products, reducing animal suffering on a broader scale. We’ve been working very hard to make this year the best yet for Randoms and are delighted to introduce new shapes, tastes, textures and flavours that all our consumers will absolutely love!​”Hannah Smithson, Assistant Brand Manager for Rowntree’s said: “We are so excited to announce all of this new news for Rowntree’s Randoms’. There is truly something for everyone in the new range whether you prefer the jelly Squish’ems, the foamy sweets or something a little more on the sour side. Rowntree's Brand Manager Meg Miller said: “This one is for the Rowntree's Randoms superfans. They told us, we’ve listened and we’ve given them a whole sharing bag of Juicers to enjoy with their friends and family. Our Randoms Juicers come in two flavours, each soft fruity jelly is filled with a jammy liquid centre and comes in and loads of fun shapes.” Most of Rowntree’s products are not vegan because they’re confectioned using gelatin, an ingredient that is obtained by boiling skin, tendons, ligaments, and/or bones with water. The introduction of new choices in the Rowntree’s Randoms range comes at the same time as a major re-brand for Rowntree’s which covers Nestlé’s full range of sugar sweets including Fruit Pastilles, Fruit Gums and Jelly Tots as well as Randoms. In addition to the new shapes, the green sweets, currently lime-flavoured, will now be apple-flavoured after the change proved more popular in testing. All of the sweets continue to contain no artificial colours, flavours or preservatives.
