  • 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.

  • Was pretty good but to expensive. Can't afford it.

  • Great taste! Enjoyed this while I received it, but ended up not buying again because hard to justify the cost.

  • Soo good but those sugar alcohols will teach you why moderation is key…

  • I really like the flavors. There’s definitely a great nostalgia vibe since I can’t start the day with sugary cereal anymore. I also don’t feel sluggish after eating these in the morning like I do with traditional ceral. It does stick to your teeth! I usually brush again after eating. It’s also pretty pricey.

  • Sooo processed. All of the ingredients are unrecognizable. Also tastes terrible - like eating chalk.

  • Great high protein option when you’re craving cereal. Love the different flavors. I get to eat the cereal I loved as a kid and get to enjoy some adult health benefits.

  • Decent incredigents but chalky taste

  • I've tried the fruity and cinnamon flavors - they scratch the itch of the sugary breakfast cereals, but don't go into it expecting a clone. These have a totally different texture and taste pretty good, but if you're used to the sugary cereals and are expecting something alone those lines you will probably be disappointed. These are a reasonably healthy alternative and will leave you feeling much more full on a smaller portion. Yes, the boxes are smaller and you get much less cereal by weight, but you also have smaller portions than you would a normal cereal. It's pretty good for those of us adults who grew up enjoying those kids breakfast cereals and like to have a quick and easy option for times when you're in a rush, but they are altogether a different product. My main gripe is the cost - I only pick these up when they are on sale at the store or I get a coupon. I appreciate that they now sell in stores, as I always wanted to try but didn't want to spend $40 for 4 boxes of something I might not like. If you're looking to try them out, check out your local Kroger/Target and watch for sales. It's a good way to give it a try without committing.

  • I wanted to love these, I really did. I’m all for the packaging, the gorgeous branding, the nostalgic vibe of all my favorite childhood cereals, BUT healthy and for adults. Sounds like a win, win - but I’ll be honest I just could not get down with the taste. Some flavors were better than others, but overall I wasn’t the biggest fan. The best flavor was the frooty loops one. But probably won’t be buying again, especially for the price.

  • Certain flavors like chocolate are great! Other flavors I’ve tried lime peanut butter have a cardboard after taste

  • Most delicious clean and healthy cereal out there! I wish more came in the box for the price but it is truly a one of a kind cereal.

  • Our breakfast routine has become so much more enjoyable since discovering Magic Spoon. The whole family gathers around the kitchen on busy mornings, pouring bowls of cereal and sharing laughs. It's become a special moment we look forward to each morning. If you're searching for a delicious and guilt-free cereal, we highly recommend Magic Spoon. The Frosted flavor has become a beloved staple in our pantry, and we're confident it will in yours too.

  • I’ve tried most of the flavors and as someone who doesn’t really eat much cereal, it’s pretty good. Its a great alternative to name brand cereals and has much better ingredients.

    Maybe offer more flavors in the future

  • My toddler and I tried the frosted cereal and to me it tasted like maple which I liked. My toddler obviously didn’t tell me what he thought it tasted like, but he ended up eating all 3 boxes so I call this one a win!

  • Love sugar free and keto mission! But the price knocks me out every time.

    Feedback

    I’m diehard keto and will flock to anything that gives me the satisfaction of a sweet treat without the carbs. in theory Magic Spoon should be the holy grail…but for some reason, I can never bring myself to buy it because of the price. Which makes no sense because I’m willing to AU ridiculous amounts of money for a Nick’s chocolate bar.

  • I tried the cocoa flavored and was underwhelmed. The texture and taste combination was quite odd. I wanted to love it, but would rather have had a bowl of coco puffs.

    Expensive and odd taste

  • I've seen and heard ads for this cereal for years. When it was available at Target, I gave it a try. While it tastes great (I tried the Cocao), it wasn't worth purchasing again. I'm glad I never purchased the cereal while it was only available on their website.

  • I was given a box from a friend bc her son didn’t like the taste. I can see why Terrible after taste. My family of six gives this cereal a 👎

  • Some flavors are the best thing in the world! I love honey nut, blueberry muffin, and fruit. However some other flavors are a little lacking. Overall, it depends on the flavor preference, but I love it! Great source of protein and healthy option!

    Same thing I said above. Ones I will avoid are cinnamon roll, maple waffle, and chocolate.
