It's definitely not easy and takes some research, but it's not impossible.
For example, carmine is used as a red dye and is made of small insects that are processed for the dye. Some sweets use these, baking ingredients can too. If you don't know that, you may end up supporting something non-vegan as a vegan.
It's these little things, "unknown" and obscure knowledge, that can get you if you're not well informed.
