4.7
Lil Bucks earns strong reviews for flavorful, crunchy buckwheat toppings and Clusterbucks snacks that elevate yogurt, smoothie bowls, and even salads, delivering protein, fiber, and low‑sugar satisfaction. Reviews also flag drawbacks: oversized chocolate chunks that can hurt teeth, too much cinnamon for some palates, and excess “treat dust” and crumbiness at the bottom of bags.

I jumped at the chance to taste test Lil Bucks new product and purchase the flavor I wanted the most when it was for sale online. I shared with my partner and my three boxes are gone so had to reorder. Rice crispy treats are a childhood favorite for many. Their version didn't disappoint on texture or taste. The ingredients are pretty good and all organic and added plus of vit d. Perfect on the go snack and pretty good on top of a smoothie bowl too.

I was lucky to have had the opportunity to taste test a new product from Lil bucks. I received two other flavors different than the strawberry one. I love anything strawberry so jumped at the chance to buy a 3 pack of these. The texture and taste is very close to non-vegan rice crispy treats, but obviously healthier ingredients and a pretty good nutritional panel. While small, it is a decent size snack to have on the go.

I have been purchasing the lil bucks sprouted buckwheat crunchy toppings for a while now, and they are literally perfect on everything. sweet or savory, they add a great crunch and a nice protein and fiber boost too!
I am a returning and frequent customer of Lil Bucks since at least May 2022. While I can't recall how I learned/tried this brand, it is something I see as a staple to have. The company is ever evolving in how to be sustainable and be the best they can be for their customers. With the exception of the two products with honey, their products are vegan. I love all the clusterbucks which are flavorful, but not overly sweet. I recently started having them as a snack by themself which is good. Otherwise, each flavor is great for topping a smoothie bowl. The nutritional panel is pretty promising as well. The seasoning bottle they have is something that I really love to use to season certain meals and especially avocado toast. A newer product is the everything bucks clusters which is very similar to the everything seasoning; I liked it upon trying it out early before it reached other consumers and it a great topping on salads and savory meals alike.

Our founder Emily first fell in love with buckwheat for the crunch and health benefits, but it was learning about the soil health benefits that possessed Emily with the mission to popularize buckwheat in the U.S.A. Healthier soil = healthier crops for humans, and abundant harvests for generations to come.
