SmartSweets earns largely positive reviews as a lower‑sugar candy that satisfies cravings—standouts include Sweet Fish, Peach Rings, Sourmelon Bites, red twists, and gummy worms—while recurring complaints in reviews cite an extremely sticky, tooth‑clinging texture and occasional odd or stevia‑like aftertaste. Reviews also note inconsistent chew across flavors and batches, plus some GI sensitivity for a few users; if you want a healthier candy fix and can accept a different chew, SmartSweets is a compelling swap, but purists may prefer the originals.
AI summary based on Thingtesting reviews
Really don’t get the hype around these. The texture and flavors are not great. Best ones are definitely the gummy bears but not my favorite clean candy!
I wish there were more in each bag but if you're trying to stick to a plan, these are great! Flavor is not lacking
Smart Sweets sound like a great alternative to traditional candy because they have low sugar content. Unfortunately, I was not the biggest fan of the candy's taste and sticky texture.
My new addiction. Peach rings are my fave!
honestly i wanted to love these but it feels so sugar free and many of these get stuck in your teeth
Tasty snacks! Great for travel or to pack in your lunch as a mid day pick me up. Will purchase again.

Going to start by saying obviously these are not as good as the candies they replicate. However, they are tasty in their own right and really help curb my sweet tooth. The red twists, sweet fish, and gummy worms do the best job at mimicking their counterparts. Really nice to keep on hand when those cravings hit!
I will pick these up from Costco because it's pricey to buy individual packs but there are limited flavours. I don't think they can completely replace traditional candy but it's nice to know there is a brand out there trying to create alternatives that is a lot healthier. My friends and family really enjoy this when I grab them for them.

best healthier candy option. Tastes amazing and has so much less sugar. Great for kids, gets that sweet tooth without all the added sugar!
This is the only candy we buy in our house now! It's satisfying and sweet without the guilt!
Delicious and helps stop me from eating high sugar items
These are a great alternative to the junk that other brands put in their candy. Some snacks are better than others but I love having these on hand for when I have a sweet tooth and want to snack on something without feeling so sick afterwards.
This product is pretty good when you want a sweet. Just be careful and do not eat too many in one setting or it will tear your stomach up.
Pretty good but has so much fiber it can hurt your stomach. Not my favorite
Tastes okay but still a good alternative to regular candy
Really disappointed by these. If you are sensitive to the taste of artificial sweeteners i don’t recommend buying. Also not a fan of the texture of most of their candies. The Swedish fish ones are so sticky and impossible to eat.
Love these sweet treats without all the sugar!
SO yummy! I love the peach rings and the gummy bears!!!
SO much fiber!!! And actually sour and delicious!!!! Stick to your teeth but for hitting that candy craving without supporting bad companies or ingredients, it’s sooo worth it.
Good healthy snacks.
