Healthy Hippo Naturals Reviews

4.9

Healthy Hippo Naturals proves to be an effective low-sugar candy brand in reviews: shoppers praise its soft, nostalgic texture and clean monk-fruit sweetness but note some sour SKUs are overpowering and suggest larger or varied pack sizes. Reviews highlight consistent flavor, non-bloating texture, and kid approval while flagging uneven sour intensity and limited bag options—useful for buyers who want a healthier gummy that still tastes like the originals.

    I have nothing but positive VIIIIBES for the Healthy Hippo Naturals brand! They're changing the game of low-sugar candy and are bringing back delicious flavours with a nostalgic twist; making them a perfect low-sugar alternative. Simply Amazing!

    Feedback

    As an avid candy snacker, the taste of low-sugar candy always worries me. Either they are sweetened with Stevia which leaves a bad aftertaste. Or, they simply don't taste good! Sorry, not sorry! BUT, Healthy Hippo Naturals Candies are the EXACT OPPOSITE. They are sweetened with Monk Fruit which is a game changer and their flavours are just spot on! As I get older and more health conscious, I'm looking for alternatives to reduce my daily sugar intake and I think their candies are the perfect low-sugar alternative! The only improvement would be to offer larger bag options because I just want to eat more than what's currently in the 50g bag!

    My son loves Healthy Hippo Gummies. We packed the gummies on a 10 day boat adventure and they were our daily go to snack. We ran out so we’re super happy to find more at some local grocers on the islands not once but twice!!

    We loved the portion size, texture and flavour.

    The kids love them and I love that they are healthier for them.

    I bought the Healthy Hippo variety pack, which consisted of two bags each of five flavors. These delicious candies are plant-based, low in sugar, and sweetened with monk fruit. I love Swedish fish so the Swedish hippos and the Hippo gummies were my favorites. I like sour candy so the sour hippos and sour keys were also pretty good. However, the fizzy colas took sour to a new level and I just couldn't finish those. I will be definitely ordering the non-sour flavors again.

In their own words

It all started with our love of candy! Wanting to enjoy our childhood faves without compromising on taste or ingredient. We spent over 3 years innovating to perfect our recipe and launch into the brand we are today! Healthy Hippo is dedicated to bringing better-for-you alternatives that you (and your little ones!) can trust, with full transparency from our ingredients to our carbon footprint. What sets us apart? Healthy Hippo is the only North American low sugar candy brand sweetened using solely Monk Fruit Juice Concentrate and the first in our category to be Non GMO Project Verified and Carbon Neutral Certified.
