@TwoCrows it’s been a while since i’ve posted on this thread but i had to tell you this!
Lately i have been buying these UK sweets that are absolutely amazing. They taste completely legit which is obviously so hard to find when it comes down to substitutes. They list the ingredients and have catagories you can search, many of my favorites are gluten free and you cannot in any way tell that they are. They have hundreds of options, many are vegan, vegetarian, gluten free, and a ton are soy free! (There are a lot that are all of those.)
The website is
https://sweetmouthfulmixes.com/pages/500g-mix-your-own-bag and they are wonderful. I found out the hard way that the V stands for vegetarian and the V with “egan” super small next to it is of course vegan. Which is a bit strange to me because im always used to V standing for vegan!
Anyways, i hope your able to find a good selection. The bubs, foams and millions are my favorites.
