Gluten Free, Dairy Free, Organic Sweets? I am a massive fan of Cola Bottles & these Cola Bottles from Biona Organic Sweets really do hit the spot!
As an IBS sufferer, I’ve found that most sweets no longer agree with me; gone are the days of raiding the cinema pick-and-mix in order to exceed my dose of E-numbers within my first strawberry lace. However, I’ve found recently that natural sweets don’t pose such a threat to my now cowering stomach. Hence why I was buzzing to find these cola bottles at Vitality which were not only organic, natural and suitable for vegans, but also gluten, gelatine and lactose free. So how do they fair in the taste test?
The texture is exactly as you’d want from a sweet of the gummy persuasion, soft with a little bit of a chew and obviously, with a great punchy cola flavour. Apart from the taste, the most gratifying part was the lack of stomach cramp and the knowledge that you’re not eating weird chemicals from a mad-scientist’s laboratory. Hooray! Given that I’ve eaten more than half the packet whilst writing this, I hope that you’re getting the overall picture.

We picked up our first pack of Cola Bottles at the Vitality Show 2013 at Earls Court in London, however next time we will be looking to purchase elsewhere. Currently these online sites stock the sweets:
As well as that a whole bunch of different stockists across the UK and the rest of the world stock Biona Organic Sweets, check out ‘Where to buy’ at: http://www.biona.co.uk/page-104.html
