Reviews mention

  • Low-glycemic formula, blood-sugar friendly
  • Soft-baked, chewy cookie texture
  • Colorful, eye-catching packaging
  • High-fiber, portion-controlled packs
  • Occasionally dry, cakey texture
  • Noticeable sweetener aftertaste
  • Small cookie size, scant quantity
  • Inconsistent, muted flavor intensity

Joydays earns largely positive reviews as a low-glycemic, low-sugar cookie that satisfies sweet cravings without spikes, with many comparing the soft-baked texture to Chewy Chips Ahoy and praising colorful packaging, generous chocolate chips, fiber, and portion-controlled packs. Reviews also flag downsides: frequent dryness or “healthy”/aftertaste notes, small cookie size, inconsistent texture, and polarizing flavors (notably peanut butter), making them a better-for-you alternative rather than a true classic cookie replacement.

  • Quite pricey. The cookies are small (snack size) seemed to be free formed (not perfect circles). I purchased the Chocolate Chip Cookies, hoping they would taste like what I am used to. Once you bite into the cookie, you can tell the texture is different, there is an aftertaste and they are dry. I think it is the dates that are used in the recipe that throws me off. These cookies aren't my cup of tea and probably won't purchase again.

  • These were some really delicious chocolate chip cookies. They were not a lot in the box, which is my only wheel critique. When I opened the plastic around the cookies, some of the chop that had already melted onto the plastic. Later, I put the whole box of cookies into the refrigerator. Either way, the cookies tasted delicious. I’m very grateful to have this opportunity to review them. I would happily suggest that others try out this brand. It’s very tasty. It’s not overly moist or chewy. It taste like a chocolate chip cookie should.

  • Love the taste for a healthier cookie! Definitely choosing this over a regular rookie with tons of sugar. My 7yo picky eater devoured it!

  • They are nice and soft cookies with low sugar. I would say they’re more of a savory cookie because I don’t taste a sweetness to them at all. comes with 10 cookies in each box.

  • Really enjoyed the chocolate chip cookies. They are just right in sweetness and have a great soft lightly chewy texture. They're also decently healthy compared to lots of other desserts, especially lower sugar. Only downside is there's not a lot in a box and so cost for the amount is a little high.

  • These cookies are pretty good for being low sugar. I like how they use natural sweeteners instead of artificial sweeteners. The texture is nice and chewy as well.

  • Tried the chocolate chip cookies. They were very very tasty. I could definitely taste fig in the cookie but that's a good thing as i enjoy figs as well

  • The packaging is so cute first of all. I love the ingredients and the fact they’re 1 gram of sugar . A tasty little sweet treat

  • The Neighborhood Walmart I went to only had the pink and yellow box (Chocolate Chip). The product was in the health and nutrition section in the pharmacy area of Walmart. Other items that were near were health and protein shakes. You will not find this cookie with the rest of the cookie and cake snacks because JoyDays are a health snack and supplement. If you do not look closely, you could miss it, so make sure you have your eyes open for the box of choice or the JoyDays brand in general. This is best for those actively and seriously changing their diet and health lifestyle.

  • It is the perfect size package of ten cookies. I enjoy the small size as they are an occasional treat for me. The flavor is great and the sweetness is not overwhelming. I like the chocolate taste and the overall texture.

  • As I opened the package the cookies smelled so sweet like Maple. They are soft to the touch and soft biting into. They taste very similar to regular cookies and dont have the after taste that monkfruit tends to have in some products. These cookies are not dry, but they are dense. I would highly recommend for someone who needs low glycemic snacks or who wants to a low sugar diet to watch weight. Most cookie snacks serving size are 2 cookies with high sugar. This serving size is 3 cookies with low grams of everything. This is a winner!

  • SOOO GOOD!! With anything that says low sugar nowadays I keep my expectations low because stevia is often used but these are a lot better than I even expected.. maybe because they use allulose in addition to monkfruit. I love how they taste soft and delicious like chips ahoy but without the guilt! The price however is extremely expensive for what you get: $6.98 for 10 tiny cookies. (I ate one so the pic is missing one.) For that reason I don't know if I'd buy again.

  • Texture was really good and I usually prefer crispy cookies, I did end up microwaving the 2nd one. The flavor was very light the only peanut butter thing about these cookies were the actual peanut pieces.

  • As someone watching their sugar intake, Joydays cookies are a lifesaver! The chocolate chip are my favorite - so soft and decadent without the sugar crash. These let me indulge healthily.

  • It's good to know that when you crave something like a chocolate chip cookie that you can actually eat some of these and not feel guilty about it! The only thing was that the cookies are kind of on the small side and you could possibly over eat the recommended servings size.

  • Soft chewy chocolate chip cookies. Chocolatey with a very light sweetness from the natural sweeteners. No chalkiness and better than I had expected. These aere about small little cookies which helps me limit my intake. Side note,Inner tray is a bit flimsy

  • Packaging is very colorful. Love the one gram of sugar and 5 g of fiber in a serving, which is 3 1/2 cookies. The flavor was good. It left no aftertaste. They were crunchy and satisfied my sweet tooth.

  • I like JoyDay cookies. The cookies were delicious. Low sugar levels are good. The taste was amazing. They are soft and fresh. I like their packaging.

  • My family and I tried this one evening for dessert after dinner. My children loved the flavor. I thought they reminded me of fiber brownies. Also I would have liked for these to be gluten free. I was not a fan. I will not be buying again.

  • Joydays cookies were not the best I’ve ever had, but that’s to be expected when they have a ton less sugar in them. I also love how much fiber is contained inside each one as well. My baby wants a bite of anything I eat, and I felt better about giving him some of this compared to a real cookie.
