Magic Spoon reviews and discussion
Reviews mention
- High-protein 13g cereal
- Nostalgic, playful packaging
- Gluten-free, grain-free formulas
- Fun, diverse flavors lineup
- Artificial-tasting sweetener aftertaste
- Gummy, teeth-sticking texture
- Inconsistent chocolate flavor execution
- Small, pricey box portions
Magic Spoon largely satisfies those seeking a healthier, high‑protein, low‑sugar riff on nostalgic cereals, according to reviews, but it is not universally loved. Reviewers praise its 13g protein per serving, gluten‑free/grain‑free formulas, fun flavors like Fruity, Cocoa, Cinnamon Roll, and Maple Waffle, and cheerful packaging; common complaints cite an artificial or stevia/monk‑fruit aftertaste, gummy texture that sticks to teeth, flavor inconsistency (especially some chocolate/peanut butter variants), limited satiety for some, and very small, pricey boxes.

Not fantastic
Feedback
This brand is mediocre. It draws you in with the whimsical boxes, but leaves you high and dry with a poor taste in your mouth.

The flavor was actually awesome. I ordered three boxes and ate them all :)
Feedback
I wish there were marshmallows, fruit, clusters, or another type of texture. Personally, I like my cereal to have multiple types of ingredients/textures or I get kinda bored eating it.

Was super enticed by the packaging, but honestly just tastes like a mild version of fruity pebbles.
I'm surprised there are so many negative reviews! We love Magic Spoon and have tried many of their flavors. Nice to get some low-carb breakfast cereal options.
Love Magic Spoon! Combining the peanut butter and chocolate flavors is my go-to. I get it for myself occasionally, or I send it to my nieces on special occasions, or when they have deals. Definitely a little pricy for day to day compared to other cereals, but with all the benefits I think it's worth it.
Not my favorite - but if you’re looking for an alternative cereal with no sugar and keto, this brand may work for you.
Feedback
Work on more flavorful products!
Delicious! When I ate it with milk it was fantastic, great flavor- only issue is that if you eat a lot (which is easy bc it’s delish) or if you eat it dry it leaves a weird feeling in your mouth and takes a while to go away.
The cinnamon one tastes great, I have ordered it several times. I stopped buying because I'm waiting for a vegan SKU. The texture gets stuck in your teeth but the flavor is great.

Vegan SKU
I have tried a few of their flavors so far and love them all! They have great macros and have quickly become my go-to quick breakfast. I find that they keep me full until lunch time and give me the energy I need to get through the mornings.

Great taste; great macros, reasonable ingredients. This is the best tasting keto cereal that I've ever tries. I've tried many of their different flavors - if you're a cereal person then I can definitely recommend.
Feedback
Portion size is small. Could be great if macros could continue to improve
Expensive cereal that doesn’t taste great. There are plenty of other better-tasting, less expensive alternatives out there.
Feedback
Overall quality for price

expensive, flavor is just okay.
Feedback
improve the taste of the cereal. lower costs.
Really wanted to love this but the texture and flavor both threw me off. I tried about a year ago (2021) so it's possible the formula has changed because I still have coworkers that rave about the stuff and have only tried it more recently.
Honestly, very meh. I didn't really like the taste, and it had a weird, gritty texture that you often find in high-protein, low-quality packaged foods. Packaging is very cute, though.
Feedback
Taste & texture :(
4y ago
The flavors were underwhelming and the texture makes me not want to repurchase. I do appreciate a fun cereal option for those who prefer a lower-sugar, higher-protein option.
Website and branding are super cute! Flavors are definitely appealing.
Feedback
The product didn't quite deliver on flavor and there's sometimes a strange aftertaste.

love the branding & ingredients but i wish it tasted better
Magic Spoon’s was first on the scene for alt-cereal and they’ve made a subscriber out of me! Order a 4-box of Maple Waffle now, thank me later.
Feedback
Improvement critique is more reading-the-tea-leaves: I hope Magic Spoon doesn’t sacrifice quality for expansion.
Great Taste, Flavor, and Macros.
Feedback
Need better pricing to make it a more sustainable part of the diet.

Their customer service is incredible, and speaking on behalf of my brother - he loves the taste!
Feedback
I wish they had a dairy-free cereal option. I also reached out to suggest that it might be beneficial for them to use a different, non-seed oil.
