Plant Based Snacks UK: Authentic, Vegan-Friendly Indian Snacking Since 1985
If you're searching for genuinely tasty plant based snacks UK shoppers can trust, you've landed in the right place. At Chandra, we've been handcrafting authentic Indian snacks since 1985, and a huge part of our range happens to be naturally vegan, dairy-free and entirely plant based. No compromises on flavour, no hidden animal fats, and certainly no shortcuts — just the same recipes our family has used for generations, made with chickpea flour, lentils, spices and pure vegetable oils.
Whether you're a committed vegan, a flexitarian looking to cut down on animal products, or simply someone who loves the bold, spiced flavours of Gujarati snacking traditions, this is your home for vegan snacks UK households have been buying from us for decades. Our snacks are popular with UK locals discovering Indian flavours for the first time, as well as British-Indian families who grew up on this exact taste of home.
Why Choose Chandra for Plant Based Snacking?

Every batch is made fresh, using traditional methods passed down through our family, with absolutely no animal-derived ingredients in this range. That makes our entire plant based snacks UK collection a genuine option for anyone seeking healthy vegan snacks UK wide — not just a tick-box vegan label slapped onto a generic product.

- Made using traditional Gujarati and wider Indian recipes
- No unnecessary additives or artificial preservatives
- Naturally high in fibre and protein from lentils, gram flour and pulses
- Ideal for vegans, vegetarians and anyone reducing dairy intake
Healthy Vegan Snacks UK Shoppers Can Actually Enjoy
There's a common myth that "healthy" and "tasty" can't sit on the same shelf. We disagree. Our healthy plant based snacks are roasted or baked using traditional techniques, generously spiced, and made to be properly satisfying — not the sad, flavourless rice cakes that usually get filed under "healthy." If you're after plant based savoury snacks UK wide that deliver real crunch and real flavour, our Sev, Gathiya and Chakri ranges are an excellent place to start.
These aren't just snacks for vegans — they're snacks that happen to be vegan, which is exactly why they appeal so widely across the UK. You'll find them just as suitable for vegetarian snacks UK households, as well as anyone simply looking for dairy free snacks UK options that don't taste like a compromise.

Natural, Honest Snacking — No Ultra-Processed Nonsense
We know UK shoppers are becoming far more conscious about what's actually in their food. That's why so many people now search specifically for non UPF snacks UK retailers, looking to avoid heavily processed products dressed up as "snack food." Our approach has never changed since 1985 — real ingredients, traditional preparation, and nothing hidden in the small print.
If that's the kind of natural snacks UK shopping you're after, you're already in good company. Browse our broader Healthy Snacks UK range and our dedicated Non UPF Snacks UK collection to see exactly how we approach better-for-you snacking without sacrificing taste.
Great for Snacking, Sharing and the Office Snack Drawer
One of the best things about plant based Indian snacks is how versatile they are. They're equally at home in a lunchbox, on a sharing platter for guests, or restocking the office biscuit tin with something a little more interesting. If you're stocking up for your desk, our range also fits neatly alongside our High Fibre Snacks UK selection, giving you something genuinely filling to reach for between meetings rather than another packet of crisps.
Many of our regular customers tell us they keep a stash specifically for this reason — it's one of the simplest ways to swap out less healthy office snacking habits without feeling like you're missing out.
Rooted in Tradition, Loved Across the UK
Plant based eating might feel like a modern trend, but in Indian households, it's been a way of life for generations. Many traditional Gujarati snacks were never made with animal products in the first place — they were simply made with what was fresh, local and delicious. That's exactly why our Traditional Indian Snacks UK range overlaps so naturally with modern plant based eating.
For shoppers who want the full picture of what we offer beyond this category, our complete Vegan Snacks UK page brings together every product across our range that's 100% free from animal-derived ingredients — useful if you're building a full vegan snack cupboard in one go.
