Gluten Free Lollies at Kmart!

Posted: September 25, 2022 Updated: April 22, 2025

Believe it or not but Kmart is actually a treasure trove when it comes to gluten free lollies. From brand names you recognise, remakes of childhood favourites to just plain weird stuff – there is a lot to choose from.

This is super useful for a lot of reasons but particularly for parties and around holidays and special events like Halloween, Christmas and Easter. Do you have an Aussie coeliac in your life that needs gluten free lollies? Then read on!

Gluten free or gluten free by ingredient

As always there are varying degrees when it comes to an item being gluten free. Some lollies at Kmart at legit gluten free, that is they have a nil detected result on the nutrition panel and a gluten free label.

Other lollies at Kmart are gluten free by ingredient. This means that none of the ingredients listed contain gluten and there are no warnings of contamination. These are often listed as ‘may contain’ after the ingredients section. For an Aussie coeliac, may contain is not acceptable. Do not buy them for the gf person in your life!

Glucose syrup from wheat

One more thing before we get into the list, glucose syrup from wheat. Glucose syrup is a syrup made up of basic sugar. It’s made by processing carbohydrates, such as wheat or corn, down into their sugar components. This processing completely destroys gluten proteins, there are no proteins in glucose syrup – only sugar.

This means glucose syrup, despite being made from wheat, is gluten free. Consensus on this was recently reached and work is being done to no longer list the origin of glucose syrup. As time goes by you will begin to see glucose syrup listed just like that. This is to avoid unnecessary confusion and stress when there is no risk to coeliacs. You can read more about this on the Coeliac Australia website.

Allen’s

A quick note here to say that a few Allen’s lollies – namely all of my gluten free favourites are no longer coeliac safe.

This covers, red rippers, minties, sherbies, and milko.

This is because production moved from a safe location in New Zealand to a new one in Australia. The Australian facility, and every packet made in Australia now carry the may contain warning for wheat.

Fantales are still safe for now, however in June 2023 Nestle announced they would be discontinued!

Just one gluten free item from Allen’s since all their lollies are no longer coeliac safe.

• Freckles, 340g. Allergens: Milk, soy. May contain: Tree nuts.

Big Lolly

It’s 2024 and I’m doing a bit of an update by browsing the Kmart website. Big Lolly? When did they come out? Thankfully ingredients photos are up so I can figure out what’s gluten free and what isn’t. Part of the range is made in Brazil and some is made in China – made in China has a may contain.

• Lolly pops, 60 pack, 500g. Allergens: Nil. May contain: Soy, milk.
• Fruit chews, 1kg. Allergens: Soy. May contain: Milk.
• Bananas, 300g. Allergens: Wheat* May contain: Milk, peanut, almond, soy. It’s wheat glucose, safe for coeliacs.

Cadbury

There are not many Cadbury products without a may contain for wheat/gluten – except at Easter. At Kmart you’ll mostly find Twirl products.

• Twirl, 39g, 58g. Allergens: Milk, soy. May contain: Peanut, tree nuts.
• Caramilk Twirl, 39g. Allergens: Milk, soy. May contain: Peanut, tree nuts.
• Twirl Honeycomb, 35g. Allergens: Milk, soy. May contain: Peanut, tree nuts.
• Twirl mini bars, 12 pack 168g. Allergens: Milk, soy. May contain: Peanut, tree nuts.
• Flake Mini pack, 168g. Allergens: Milk, soy. May contain: Peanut, tree nuts.

Chupa chup

It has to be said, the Chupa Chups website is brilliant – individual allergen listings for each flavour of lolly pop and their other lollies.

At Kmart the gluten free Chupa Chup lollies include the classics, fizzy drinks and faces.

Incredible chew – cola, strawberry and apple flavoured chews. These are individually wrapped so they’re perfect for parties and Halloween.

Did you know there’s a Chupa Chups ice cream and it’s gluten free?!

Family Favourites

Okay this is apparently the brand name but I think it’s just a title for a Kmart brand. Family Favourites isn’t a company just a small part of a confectionery distribution. But, every pack of lollies has a big gluten free label on the front and nil detected on the back!

So far I’ve seen four products all in huuuge bags.

• Snakes, 1kg. Allergens: Nil. May contain: Milk. (contains gelatine)
• Fruit chews, 700g. Allergens: Soy. May contain: Cashew, egg, peanut, milk.
• Party mix, 1kg. Allergens: Nil. May contain: Milk. (contains gelatine)
• Ball pops, 700g. Allergens: Soy. May contain: Cashew, egg, peanut, milk.

Jelly Belly

Jelly Belly are a gluten free classic. The nutritional information says 0.0mg detected for gluten. The pack on the left is packet is full of mini packets so it’s perfect for birthdays and halloween alike.

Kmart brand

Kmart has a weird and wonderful collection of gluten free lollies, including remakes of some absolute classics.

Here’s a quick run down of them.

Strawberries and cream are an absolute favourite but unfortunately the Allen’s variety are not suitable for coeliacs.

Sour lollies are a real favourite of mine, and here we’ve got peach hearts and cola bottles. The peach hearts are a little smaller than the gluteny ones I remember but they have the same orange and pink halves. The cola bottles look identical. Both are dairy free but do contain gelatine.

• Sour peach hearts, 135g.
• Sour cola bottles, 135g.
• Strawberries & cream, 90g.

Soft jubes and mint leaves – more classic items. I actually got my mother to send me these mint leaves when I was living in the UK. I had a craving and these just don’t exist anywhere else. You can see on both packets that these are labelled gluten free.

• Soft jubes
• Mint leaves

For the gluten free label to be used it must be tested for gluten and have a nil detected result – this is the case for both packets.

• Emoji fruit chews, 300g.
• Chocolate eclairs, 260g. Allergens: Milk, soy. May contain: Peanut, sesame. I’m not sure you’ll need to buy these as Pascall eclairs are gluten free (and they use Cadbury chocolate!)
• 101 Rainbow straws, 160g. Allergens: Nil. May contain: Nil.

Even more options!

• Bubble gum with tattoo, 550g. Allergens: Nil. May contain: Soy.
• Raspberries, 110g. Allergens: Nil. May contain: Milk. Contains gelatine.
• Party mix, 360g. Allergens: Nil. Contains gelatine.

Lollipops

• Lollipops, 200g.
• Gummy sticks, 40g.
• Large lollipop, 85g.

Lolly Bar Jars

I had to make up a name for this group, these jars of various lollies remind me of the lolly bars you’d see at weddings. You know, the one where they’ll have a sign saying “love is sweet” and mini bags for guests to select their own lollies.

Well, happily most of the range is gluten free with just a few you can’t have. Out of the running are the fake starburst and the marshmallows.

• Gumballs 950g (both the bright and pastel colours)

• Candy sticks 450g (both the bright and pastel colours)
• Jelly beans 600g (both the bright and pastel colours)

• Gummy frogs 500g (contains gelatine)
• Fruit candy 500g
• Gummy snakes 500g (contains gelatine)

• Lollypops 288g (both the bright and pastel colours)

Natural Confectionary Company

I did not expect something from the Natural Confectionary Company to be gluten free! Most of their products have wheat starch which makes them unsuitable.

Happily this one has no may contains so it’s dairy free as well. It’s not vegan though as it contains gelatine.

• The Natural Confectionery Co. Fruity Chews, 180g, 350g. Allergens: Nil. May contain: Nil.

Other brands

I usually have a miscellaneous group to cover the brands that only have one product.

• Push pop. Allergens: Nil.
• Pez – dispensers and refills. Allergens: Nil.

• Fizzer Faves 8 pack 92g Allergens: Egg, soy.
• Mini Fizzer Faves 266g Allergens: Egg, soy.

Skittles

Skittles are happily gluten free and vegan, with soy as the only allergen and no may contains. The share packs have 12 mini boxes / bags. Side note, I can’t believe how many varieties there are now.

Ingredients across the board are largely the same. The smoothie flavour does not contain dairy, despite the creamy taste advertised.

Starburst

I’m pretty sure Starburst made the headlines when Woolies started importing it last year. While Woolworths sells a small 127g bag, you can get a big 332g bag from Kmart.

Swizzels

Swizzels are a UK based company founded almost 100 years ago in 1928! They are famous for lollies your parents or grandparents would be more familiar with like candy hearts and parma violets. Happily, most of their range is gluten free and they have a great search function on their website for selecting allergens!

In terms of what you can buy at Kmart this is what I’ve found.

• Scrumptious Sweets 350g
• Double Dip 19g
• Curious Chews 350g

I’ll need to check more of these in person as the Swizzels website lists many items as suitable for coeliacs but Kmart says there are may contain!

Toblerone

Mini Toblerone. Are there two sweeter words out there? It’s always felt like a blessing to me that Toblerone is gluten free. It’s such a luxury chocolate after all.

This bag has single serves individually wrapped, great for lolly bags, piñatas and Halloween.

• Toblerone Milk Chocolate Gift Bag 120g. Allergens: Milk, almond, soy, egg. May contain: Nil.
• Toblerone chocolate bar, 50g. Allergens: Milk, almond, soy, egg. May contain: Nil.
• Toblerone, 360g. Allergens: Milk, almond, soy, egg. May contain: Nil.

Trolli

Mini burgers gave me so much amusement as a kid, pulling apart the layers and eating them one at a time.

Note the Trolli range all indicate they are made on a production line processing soy and milk and they contain gelatine.

A lot of Trolli products at Kmart are individually wrapped, making them a perfect gluten free Halloween trick or treat option.

• Trolli Mini Burger Bag, 432g.
• Trolli Pizza XXL 9 Slices 45g
• Trolli Mini Gummi Burger 50g
• Gummi lunch, 77g.

• Trolli multimix hits, 500g.
• Sour gecko, 19g.
• Trolli brite crawlers, 500g.

• Brite Crawlers, 625g. Allergens: Nil. May contain: Milk, soy. Contains gelatine.
• Strawberry Clouds, 600g. Allergens: Nil. May contain: Milk, soy. Contains gelatine.
• Classic gummy bread, 625g. Allergens: Nil. May contain: Milk, soy. Contains gelatine.

Kmart also stock a few of the mega 1kg bags.

• Watermelon, 1kg. Allergens: Nil. May contain: Milk, soy. Contains gelatine.
• Brite Crawlers, 1kg. Allergens: Nil. May contain: Milk, soy. Contains gelatine.

Warheads

I did not realise so many Warhead products were gluten free by ingredient! I am only adding these to the guide in 2025, as they recently arrived at Kmart.

• Warheads party pack, 850g. (individual mini bags)
• Mini Warheads, 49g. Allergens: Nil. May contain: Nil.
• Warheads All Mixed Up, 150g, 1kg. Allergens: Sulphites. May contain: Milk.

Wizz Fizz

• Original Sherbert, 125g. Allergens: Nil. May contain: Nil.
• Wizz Fizz party pack, 229g. Allergens: Nil. May contain: Nil.
• Wizz Fizz fruity pops, 15 pack. Allergens: Nil. May contain: Nil.

Zappo

Yet another lolly I remember regularly buying at the high school canteen. The classic Zappo chews are of course grape but they also have strawberry. Both flavours are gluten free by ingredient and no may contain – however they do contain gelatin so they are not vegetarian.

• Zappo grape and strawberry, 104g. Allergens: Nil. May contain: Nil. Contains gelatine.
• Zappo Millions, 368g. Allergens: Nil. May contain: Nil.
• Mega variety pack, 780g. Allergens: Nil. May contain: Nil. Contains gelatine.
