As you can see, our better-for-you ingredients are way more expensive than sugar and corn syrup. However, as more companies start using these better-for-you ingredients, the market will adjust, and prices will come down! It’s very expensive to operate a gummy startup. The good news is that as we become a bigger company, our costs will go down, and we will pass those savings on to you. In the meantime, the price for our gummies is what we need to charge to make sure we stay in business. We really appreciate your understanding and your continued support for our small business!
