Magical Vegan Candy Bar Party from Trupo
Can you imagine receiving a 50-bar delivery of vegan Snickers, 3 Musketeers, and Nestle Crunch? These veganized classic bars now exist, thanks to vegan brothers Brian and Charlie Trupo. Craving the nostalgic bars they grew up with, the twin brothers created the most heavenly plant-based candy bars made with gooey caramel, fluffy marshmallow nougat, roasted nuts, and rich oat milk chocolate. You may be tempted to plow through this massive delivery all at once, but don't worry, you can freeze for instant treats all year long!
