  • 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.

  • ✨🥣 Just discovered my new breakfast obsession—Magic Spoon Frosted! 🌟 This cereal is like a sweet trip down memory lane, minus the sugar crash. I’m talking about that classic frosted flavor we all loved as kids but with zero guilt attached! 🙌 Packed with protein and none of the junk, it’s basically nostalgia in a bowl. Perfect for those cozy mornings when you need a little magic to start your day right. Have you guys tried this? Let me know what flavors are your faves! 💬👇

  • Truthfully I wanted to like this, but it just tastes so chalky. If you want to taste like you're eating a high protein cereal then you should get it, but it doesn't replace your classic cereals

  • Magic Spoon is everything I’ve ever wanted in a cereal—delicious, nostalgic flavors but with none of the guilt! The low-carb, high-protein formula fits perfectly into my lifestyle, and it’s such a treat to have a breakfast (or snack!) option that tastes indulgent without all the sugar. The flavors are spot on—[insert favorite flavors like Frosted, Fruity, or Cocoa]! They’re crunchy, satisfying, and genuinely fun to eat. Plus, it’s gluten-free and keto-friendly, which makes it a win for anyone with dietary restrictions. If you’re looking for a healthier alternative to childhood favorites, Magic Spoon is worth every penny. Highly recommend!

  • These cereals are yummy but also made with clean ingredients which allowed me to feel great about it being a little late night snack. I was surprised with how tasty the flavors were!

  • Love the mission! LOVE the proteins! LOVE the packaging! BUT I think I got the WRONG flavor - I got the fruity box and it was just okay. Def wouldn't buy that flavor again but I'm open to trying other ones.

  • I tried the fruity cereal which I liked. It tasted like a more lemony version of fruit loops. To me the flavor was good but subtle. I did think the cereal got mushy really fast after adding milk so I was not the biggest fan of that. Definitely wish it was not as expensive!

  • I actually loved this cereal but it is so expensive. I dont think I would buy again

  • The kids tried the colorful version, and enjoyed it. We will try more flavors

  • I tried the cereal bars which are essentially healthy rice krispy treats with protein and they are delicious! Such a good healthy snack. Minus 1 point for me due to the high price point, wish they were more affordable.

  • Cereal has a good texture. It tastes ok, not too sweet. It satisfies my carb craving and high protein needs. The taste doesn't stand out compared to other cereals. The quality ingredients sound amazing, but I can't really "taste" it. The price is relatively high, so I'd think twice for getting it again.

  • not sure I will buy again. Tho I gave it a go few months ago after reading thingtesting review.

  • It's alright. My mom loved it because it's low sugar, but I don't think I'd go for this over my standard cereals if I were to shop for cereal again

  • The taste was not very sweet… it honestly lacked flavor. I wonder if it would taste better if mixed with some additional ingredients because on its own it’s very bland.

  • I love cereal but being low carb makes that difficult, in comes magic spoon for the win!!!

  • HUGE fan of magic spoon. The flavors are delicious (both the evergreen and seasonal ones), the cereal is actually filling, and it makes me feel like a kid again (emotionally) without all the sugar and crap of traditional cereals. I've tried tons of different "healthy" cereals and this one definitely takes the cake. Pricey, but worth every cent for me.

  • Pretty good adult cereals! I like that the flavors aren't super sweet but still give you the nostalgia of childhood classics. I had a subscription for a while but got bored of them after a few months and cancelled. They're a bit too pricy to just have around (if I'm not actively eating them). May start another subscription soon, but I doubt I'll go longer than another few months.

    Could use more flavor or purchase options

  • Good cereal if you’re looking for something with protein. Overall though texture and taste is not good has kind of a chalky feel.

  • Soooo yummy. The fruit loops and peanut butter are my favorite, but all of the flavors are great. Thrilled to have a healthier cereal option that actually fills you up.

  • For what this cereal is and it's nutritional content, It's amazing! I am a huge fan of cereal, and while if I was simply going for taste I might prefer a couple other way less healthy traditional cereals, but If I'm eating cereal in the morning this would absolutely be my go-to. It's filling, not overly sweet, and has a nice texture.

  • I jumped on this ship early, and despite occasional wavering, continue to buy their cereal. There's just something fun about eating cereal that reminds me of childhood favs without totally destroying me. And their merch is EXTREMELY fun!

    *sigh* the biggest improvement is that, while fun, there is a slight artificial flavor that can linger. Not always, but sometimes. And the flavors have been major hit or complete miss for me - fruity, pb, and frosted have been pleasant. the others...not so much. I also wish I didn't have to commit to such large orders.
