Terms of Use

1. What makes your candy different?

We use simple, high-quality ingredients to craft candy that’s big on flavor without the junk. Think bold, innovative flavors, perfect texture, and no artificial colors, corn syrup, or GMOs. It’s everything you love about candy, reinvented.

2. Is your candy allergen-friendly?

Our gummies are gluten-free and made without nuts, but they are produced in facilities that may also handle allergens. Always check the packaging for the latest allergen info and reach out if you have specific concerns—we’re happy to help.

3. Is your candy organic?

Our candy is made with over 70% organic ingredients, but we’re not fully certified organic yet. We’re committed to transparency and clean ingredients, so you’ll never find artificial sweeteners or unnecessary additives in our products.

4. Do you offer vegan candy?

Not at the moment. Our current gummies are gelatin-based, but we’re exploring plant-based options. If that’s something you’re craving, let us know—it helps us prioritize future products!

5. What’s your return & exchange policy?

Because we sell food products, we’re not able to accept returns for safety reasons. That said, your happiness is a big deal to us. If your order arrives damaged, incorrect, or not up to our usual sweet standards, reach out within 7 days of delivery. We’ll make it right with a replacement or refund.

6. Where can I buy your candy?

You can shop directly on our website and at select retailers. We’re adding new stores all the time—check our Store Locator to find Sweet Stash near you, or get it shipped straight to your door.

7. Do you really donate to arts education?

Yes! A portion of our profits supports arts education programs, giving kids access to music, theater, visual arts, and more. Every bag you buy helps fund creativity for the next generation.
