Reviews mention

  • High-protein 13g cereal
  • Nostalgic, playful packaging
  • Gluten-free, grain-free formulas
  • Fun, diverse flavors lineup

  • 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.

  • The box design, branding, illustrations, and overall color and concept of Magic Spoon is so good! I also thought the flavor of their cereals was really good too. But what I'm here to talk about today is the paste that formed in the back of my mouth. Maybe it's my mouthal anatomy, I can't be sure. No matter the flavor, no matter the day of the week, as each spoonful of Magic Spoon entered my mouth and my teeth got to work, some kind of science occurred which directed the chewed cereal mush to collect behind my molars. Imagine my discomfort as I had to shove my longest finger to the back of my mouth to scoop out the pink mush from 5 minutes ago. I've never eaten anything before that has done this! And I don't shy away from experiential foods, so this wasn't all bad—I finished all 4 boxes that I bought!

    IDK maybe test the product on a diverse set of mouths to make sure paste isn't forming?

  • Bringing back that childhood nostalgia but not making me feel guilty at the same time.

  • The taste is just as bad as the price!!! Ouch way overpriced for cereal..so many better breakfast options out there and way cheaper who has 9 bucks for cereal and it's a small box..wish the taste and price point was way better

  • These are fun, low-carb cereals! I try to eat higher protein and lower sugar, and sometimes it is hard to find variety. I enjoy having these cereals once in a while for a change of pace!

  • A relief seeing Magic spoon on the market. When we think how many people don’t want to eat sugary cereals but don’t have time to make eggs, this is the place. The branding is very hard to ignore and the taste is much the same! As someone who is very busy, very healthy and someone who takes care of themselves, this cereal has made my goals attainable.

  • I need that bowl they show on the website! The cereal is pretty good too lol

  • I like everything about the product except for the prices. If they could bring this to be in the $6 range instead of $15 then we would be talking.

  • Ok I honestly wanted to give them a 1 star but I think it’s better at 2. I wanted to love this cereal. But. I don’t. I can’t recommend it to anyone. The thing I do not like is that the whey protein tends to stick to my teeth. This is a deal breaker. The flavor is ok. But this texture issue seals the deal I won’t be buying this again

  • I like that the cereal has high protein and less artificial preservatives but I don't like the aftertaste that it leaves. This is somewhat reminiscent of my favorite childhood cereals so if you're craving those it might be a decent substitute.

  • Didn’t love the aftertaste this cereal has. I’m all for looking for healthier alternatives but the taste just doesn’t do it for me

  • I finally purchased Magic Spoon cereal. It was better than I thought and healthier than regular cereal. Definitely will repurchase.

  • This cereal is perfect for our gluten-free dairy-free household. We love every flavor. I usually pair it with sweet almond milk. Eat it dry, for breakfast or three times a day. It's so delicious.

  • Taste and texture was bad, texture was sticky stuck to teeth and ingredients was not as clean as id like them to be. We need to do A lot better in the us!

  • I love the idea behind this cereal. They use fruit juice instead of sugar. But I just don't like the cereal.

  • This is a great alternative to high sugar cereals with no nutritional value. Tasty and high protein is important.

  • Love having a gluten free cereal with some flavor. It is expensive for what it is though so more of an occasional splurge.

  • I love this cereal because it tastes good and it’s not too sugary for my children. I have recently switched to less sugary options for cereal and snacks due to family medical history. This is a perfect balance of great tasting and good for you.

  • I love the flavors and macros of magic spoon. Besides a stick-to-your-teeth texture, the taste is amazing! Cinnamon roll is by far my favorite.

  • Omg!!! These are so good! A friend recommended them to me. The grocery stores are filled with cereal that have artificial food dyes that are not good for consumption for kids. Having a toddler who loves cereal, I love having this alternative and not worrying what harmful stuff she’s eating!

  • I love their fun and unique packaging, they showcase very clear how beneficial their grain-free cereal is. They are higher protein and less caloric than most cereals in their sector.
