Lil Bucks makes a collection of grain-free crunchy snacks and toppings made from buckwheat.

Lil Bucks, America's buckwheat brand, makes crunchy snacks and toppings out of the underutilized superfood, sprouted buckwheat. The company's mission is to improve American diets and soil health through the love of buckwheat. The products are uniquely crunchy, and are gluten/grain-free, high in protein, fiber and antioxidants. The buckwheat is sourced sustainably from a trailblazing regenerative farm in Minnesota.

Lil Bucks earns positive reviews for delivering crunchy, nutrient-dense buckwheat toppers and Clusterbucks that elevate yogurt, smoothie bowls, salads, and ice cream, with standouts like Golden Chai and birthday cake flavors. Reviews also flag weaknesses—oversized hard chunks that can hurt teeth, excess crumb “dust,” occasional overpowering cinnamon, and a desire for more consistent cluster sizes and grab‑and‑go formats—making it a strong pick for texture and clean ingredients if one can tolerate the crunch intensity.
