Babybel earns favorable reviews as a reliably tasty, creamy, high‑protein snack with nostalgic, fun-to-peel wax packaging, but it divides opinion on flavor depth and perceived processed taste. Reviews praise portability, variety (including probiotic and plant-based options) and meltability, while critiquing the low-fat version’s flavor, occasional synthetic mouthfeel, and excess packaging.

The new Babybel Pro cheese wheels come in a 12-pack and contain 5 g of protein each as well as probiotics. The real cheese comes in a wax enclosure and reminds me of the old days growing up in Europe! It tastes very fresh, is perfect as snack anywhere and has a mild taste like a mixture between Münster, Butterkäse and Mozzarella.

OMG I LOVE THIS SNACK SO FREAKING MUCH!!!!!!! THE CHEESE TASTES LIKE MY OLD COW JUNKY-HEAD'S CHEESE!!! MMMMMM-MMMMMMM-MMMMM!!!!!!!!!!😍😫❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

I never understood the point of the individually wrapped cheeses personally not only because they are wasteful but also because they are expensive as well. The wax can be reused for those that want to melt it down into something else, but the outer plastic wrapping kind of defeats the purpose because the wax already protects the cheese inside. The taste is fine, but I don't think it's worth the extra price.
Babybel makes delicious cheeses that are just the right portion size and great for kids. I pack them in lunches or take them on road trips. The cheese is creamy and pairs well with fruit and crackers.
Who doesn't love cheese? I remember eating these as a kid. Babybel is basically just an aggressively mild rubbery cheese encased in wax. For me the most prominent memory is how weirdly satisfying they are to open.

Does cheese need to have so much packaging? Wax, plastic plus netting is so overkill. Personally I'd just buy a block of Edam and cut it up. Actually scratch that, I'll go for a vintage cheddar, ripe brie or gruyère. Maybe this is not the cheese for me.
Lunch box staple. Whenever my boyfriend and I get nostalgic we pick up one of these. It's the perfect size for cheese. For some reason unwrapping one feels so satisfying. I put him on on melting it onto a tortilla for a quick quesadilla. Tastes good but I think the experience of eating one is what makes it special.
Babybel cheese is the perfect snack—creamy, smooth, and packed with great flavor. The fun wax wrapper keeps it fresh and makes it easy to take anywhere. High in protein, satisfying, and always reliably delicious!
These are great for on the go or a snack when hungry and not sure what to eat
This is such a classic snack. The cheese is simple, consistent, and tasty, and the wrapper was always so much fun as a kid.
Babybel cheese is such a classic cheese snack. Love the packaging!
Love the cheese and love the concept. My only two gripes are that I think the plastic wrapping is unnecessary if the wax already protects the cheese and is sterile, and I hate that I have associated a specific Lush soap with this delicious cheese because they look exactly the same and neither are entirely edible.
They taste good, yet look and feel in the mouth overly processed.
yummy and cute snack throughout the day! good flavor
Babybel is a classic cheese snack, I love that you can take it on the go and use it in many different ways. I personally love their mozz as it isn't sour or has a weird after taste!

A classic! Not my favorite flavor, but a great protein-rich and satisfying snack.

Our family loves Babybel cheese. I grew up snacking on these and the little wheels are such a treat! We still buy them on occasion, and they’re perfect for an on-the-go snack!
This cheese is as delicious as it is easy to open. I'm not gonna lie I have no idea what type of cheese it is though and I kind of wish that was advertised on the packaging or the website somewhere. After browsing for a bit I've found they make more varieties of cheese in the same cute little wax packaging! I don't love the netting packaging so much, but I understand the purpose. I compensate by using it as a sponge for really dirty pots and pans that I would rather not take my regular sponge to.
I have these little low fat cheeses as a snack almost every weekday. They are only 50 calories.and have 5 grams of protein, plus they are a real food! I love how fun they are to unwrap and always taste fresh. Such a great departure from processed protein sources
Love babybel products once you try them you will be in love. 😍 great for snacking, or making a charcuterie board.
These taste way too good! I can eat multiple without thinking
