SmartSweets earns positive reviews for genuinely tasty, low‑sugar takes on nostalgic gummies like Sweet Fish, Peach Rings, Sourmelon Bites, and Red Twists; it satisfies cravings and often avoids “fake” sweetener aftertaste. Reviews also flag real drawbacks: many candies are extremely sticky or tough, flavors can be inconsistent with occasional stevia/allulose aftertaste and GI upset, and portions feel small. Overall, SmartSweets is good if cutting sugar, but texture quirks and formula variability make it a compromise for purists.

Fantastic alternative to Swedish fish, honestly prefer the taste of these now. Snacking without worrying about excessive sugar is lovely.
Such a tasty treat without the added guilt of bad sugar. Helps curve the sweet craving with high fiber and minimal calories.

i love the taste but always give me a stomach ache...
Yummy! But the packages are pretty small. I prefer the taste of regular candy, but these are a good alternative. They're a little bit hard/chewy.
These do not have a lot of flavor, and they are hard to chew.

love the concept. candy that is better for you! I find the stevia after taste to be too strong for me to enjoy it. I would prefer to just have the real thing and a smaller portion.
Snartsweets are perfect candy to get the I need something sweet without all the sugar. It tastes great and they have many varieties that are similar to the ones loaded with sugar.
These are really tasty for being low sugar. They are a bit expensive and I can only find them at target. I usually buy them when I travel for an airplane snack.
Smart sweets is such a great low sugar alternative candy! I don’t feel guilty when eating this snack at all. They make some of my favorite candies from when I was a kid and they are more healthy than ever

I love these as a healthier alternative to candy. The biggest issue I have is that the candy gets really hard and difficult to chew through, it's almost like a jaw exercise.
Definitely a great candy alternative but if you’re sensitive to fiber, these can be a bit harsh.
a wonderful alternative for kids' candy! please make more!
Not my favorite
Great tasting candy! Tastes just like the original version of peach rings, but with way less sugar & calories. These are a great alternative to eating regular candy! I brought them camping, and my family (kids included!) thought they were delicious. I'm very satisfied with these candies and my family & I will definitely be trying other flavours!
i've tried a handful for smart sweets products. my favorite are the sweetfish, they're the perfect amount of chewiness and taste great. the peach rings are a close second and they're just as good.
Pretty good for the ingredients!
I have been trying to cut sugar and curb my sweet tooth, but sometimes I just want peach rings or sour gummies. Smart sweets have the right flavor to be satisfying, although the gummy texture leaves something to be desired. They're nice to keep on hand, especially a bag in my purse, so I can have a little something sweet and then move on with my day without accidently adding 1,000 calories.
I'm honestly so happy with this company. These treats/gummies are so soft and full of flavor. Its nice to indulge in something and not have to worry about the calories or feeling bad after.
This is a great alternative to traditional candy. The taste and texture is different than expected but you’ll get quickly used to it. My favorite candy from this brand is the Swedish fish
