Are Jelly Beans Vegetarian?

But what makes our jelly beans vegetarian? Here at The Jelly Bean Factory, we don’t use any products that come from animal sources, meaning our gourmet jelly beans are completely vegetarian friendly and still have their huge flavours and vibrant colours.
A lot of other jelly beans and gummy sweets use something called gelatine which is often made from animals. Our products however are gelatine-free which, eliminates the use of animal products.
Instead, we had our top jelly bean scientists develop a recipe that uses starch! It’s a natural substance found in corn, it’s vegetarian safe and still gives our gourmet jelly beans the texture of.… Jelly!
