With Christmas just around the corner, supermarkets and shops across the country are filled up with Christmas snacks and treats strategically placed to catch your eye as you navigate the aisles on your weekly shop. The problem? Most of these Christmassy treats are not suitable for a vegan diet. So, we’ve compiled this handy guide to vegan snacks over the Christmas period. From making your own to buying online and in store, we hope these ideas will help you enjoy some great tasting, indulgent, and sometimes healthy vegan snacks at Christmas.
