I really wanted to like these, gummy candy is my favorite. I bought the sour watermelon and it was fake sugary tasting and so sour I couldn’t choke them down. Super disappointed, as I like another sour gummy type candy but these were way off the mark.

Sometimes i try to cut down my sugar intake and this is the perfect for those times when im craving something sweet.

Didn’t like the ones I purchased. It made me not want t to try them again. Flavorless and would rather have regular candy with the sugar in it because these tasted like bland

Hate to say it but they’re just not that good. If you have a craving for candy, you can try and pretend that they’re the sugary processed kind. They still aren’t so great for you and the texture is so off.

I first saw these on TikTok and I knew I wanted to test them out. I soon went to Target to purchase them and they were super yummy. The peach rings are my go-too!
Okay, so these taste better than I expected them to, a little artificial but not terribly so. My main complaint is that they do have a lot of artificial sugar so if I eat a whole package (which of course I'm going to do) I get a stomach ache and pretty bad bloating.

Love having a low sugar option for that gummy candy craving! The texture is a little odd but the flavors are consistently great.

These sweets are low in sugar. Not too sweet for me. I love the texture. I take them to work with me and I share them with everyone. They all love them.

I really wanted to like this brand, especially with how much I eat gummy candy. The sugar alternative is so strong and I can't get past it. The after taste of the flavor makes it harder to keep eating. As well, they get stuck on my teeth which is a bit annoying.

Taste pretty good, but texture is a tad bit off

The gummies stick onto your teeth which I don't like. It might be having better ingredients but the aftermath of having sticking gummies between your mouth is not good.

I love SmartSweets. They really curb my appetite for candy and sugar without the guilt of eating a whole bag of super sugar candies. My favorite are the Swedish fish inspired ones but they are all good. They get stuck in your teeth a little bit but that’s expected of candy for me.
I love these candies! Guilt-free and tastes amazing! My favorite is the gummy worms and swedish fish. Definitely will choose these over the common brands. Try it!!

Overall, these are fine sugar-free candy alternatives. The price is a little crazy for the amount you get. At my Whole Foods, the small bags are about 3x the price of a standard/regular bag of candy, and are the highest-priced "alternative" candy in the aisle. They do however get the job done. If you are watching your sugar intake, these candies will knock your sweet tooth out in a great way. From that perspective, I do appreciate having them around. It can be worth their cost if it means staying on track with my diet goals.

Well the sour watermelon weren’t as sour as I expected and more firm than gummy.

Love this brands products. I’m obsessed with gummies, so it’s great to find a “healthier” version.

Great tasting sweets to satisfy that sweet tooth. I personally love the small package size because it helps stop me from over indulging.

They look appealing and similar taste to what I like, but can feel less guilty.
