Made in small batches without the top 10 food allergens and fortified by superfoods like sunflower seeds and blueberries, free2b are made WITHOUT peanuts, tree nuts, dairy, soy, wheat, and are verifiably vegan, Kosher, and non-GMO certified!
Did you know 2.5 million Canadians self-report having at least one food allergy?* And that 300,000 Canadian children under 18 live with food allergies? (*Overall Prevalence of Self-reported Food Allergy in Canada, 2015) Canadians commonly suffer from food allergies and the dangers associated with them are so severe that many schools across Canada outright ban allergy-inducing foods like peanut butter from school lunches and snacks.
Thankfully, there’s good news! Back to school season has arrived, and NEW free2b chocolate treats are free of Canada’s top 10 food allergens. This new tasty treat is here to take the stress off parents and provide chocolate lovers (of all ages) with a delectable answer to allergy and dietary restrictions. Newly launched in Canada and distributed nationally by Layda’s Yummies Inc., free2b is high-quality, small batch chocolate and confectionary that answers the call for allergy sufferers and dietary conscious consumers from coast to coast.

Perfect on their own for a mid-day lunchbox treat, guiltless dessert, fail-safe gift, and inclusion in your favourite recipes. This premium confectionery is top 10 allergen free, vegan, and over-the-top-tasty.
