Unreal Snacks wins praise in reviews for tasting like upgraded versions of Reese’s, M&M’s, and Mounds—especially the dark chocolate peanut butter cups, coconut bars, and crispy quinoa gems—while using cleaner ingredients and less sugar. However, critiques surface around dryness in some nut-butter cups, occasional chalky or dusty textures, strong dark-chocolate bitterness for sweet-tooth palates, use of palm oil, and inconsistent flavor in gems; several reviewers also note that it doesn’t always replicate classic candies and can disappoint those expecting exact dupes.
AI summary based on Thingtesting reviews
The coconut minis have a hold on my family! These have hit such a sweet spot with our Mounds fan family. The bags don’t stay around for long.

One of my all time favorite better for you candy brands. I’m obsessed with the chocolate coconut bars. Everything I’ve tried from them tastes just as satisfying as conventional candy. I love the peanut butter cups too! A little expensive but to be expected for a premium brand. They are sometimes on sale at Whole Foods :)

Even though I haven't tried many of Unreal Snack's products, I've tried and really enjoyed their Dark Chocolate Coconut Minis. They are tasty, convenient, and also a more healthy options on the market.

I love coconut so I had to try the Unreal Coconut bars - much better than the conventional brand and super clean and perfect amount of sweetness. I like to get the big bag at Costco when they are on sale.

These are SO good – the dark chocolate tastes real and doesn't have a stevia flavor like some of the better-for-you sweets do... my only complaint is that there aren't a ton of pretzels for the size of the bag.

UNREAL! I've tried the Unreal dark chocolate coconut snacks - they have a large bag at Costco. Anytime I see them, I grab a bag and it lasts maybe a week in my house. It's the perfect amount of sweetness, not overly sweet at all, and I love the coconut. If you're a big fan of coconut, this is a perfect addition to your fridge.
Feedback
I wish the brand was more readily available - I've only seen the brand at Whole Foods and Costco only sells the one product.

While candy may not be the healthiest food item, Unreal candies are healthier than other available options. Unreal products have 40% less sugar and use sustainably sourced/fair trade ingredients. Their dark chocolate candies are vegan and are colored with natural ingredients like beet root and carrot juice. The Unreal products I tried were yummy and tasted no different then the less healthy alternatives.

I do not get the hype, can someone explain it to me? I tried both the dark chocolate peanut butter cup and the dark chocolate almond butter cup. I was expecting to love it, but instead my mouth felt super dry. The middle part (the almond butter or peanut butter) that is supposed to be soft / oily due to the natural oil of the peanut or almond, is actually dry. It's like a dry powder. Like what the hell is this.

Huge fan of peanut butter cups so to find a low sugar alternative is always a good thing. Some of the "healthy candy" brands tend to taste like crayons, where Unreal does a pretty solid job of not tasting... crayon-y! I bought a bag of the Dark Chocolate Peanut Butter Cups and ate them a little too quickly. I did manage to save 2 to photograph for Thingtesting!

I am not a chocolate fan but I totally love UNREAL. My favorate is the dark chocolate caramel peanut nouget bars. I have a box of the 0.67 oz bars and it takes so much will power not to eat multiple bars at a time. I like that Unreal ususes better for you ingredennts. I would suggest unreal as an alternative to traditional chocolate snacks. It is amazing thaUNREAL a better for you snacks taste better than anything else out there.

I’ve always been a chocolate lover however ever since starting my weight loss and fitness journey I wanted to eat less sugary food. This is when I discovered unreal chocolate. My favorite go to chocolate whenever I am craving something sweet but I do want to stay healthy and in my deficit would have to be the mini coconut chocolate covered bars. These are very delicious and it’s as if I am eating a bounty bar but for less the calories.

This brand is NOT gluten free. I have a severe allergy to wheat and after eating half the bag of their chocolate gems I had a full celiac response. I can tell you the difference between mere cross contamination and a complete exposure. This tells me that they do not even clean their equipment to minimize the exposure to allergens. I know they can pay for the gluten free certification based off of their ingredients alone, but they obviously are not concerned with providing a product that is safe for sensitive consumers.

My brain wants to think of M&M when eating them but they are better. There is more crunch to each bite, healthier amount of sugar and better quality. I love it as a snack and would recommend it to anyone with a sweet tooth. Strangely tastes good in my yogurt. It’s worth trying for a road trip, snack in the office or at home. Great gift!

Unreal chocolates satisfy my sweet tooth (when I have one) without the usual guilt. The ingredient list is impressively simple and clean, which I really respect. While not overly sweet, they deliver just enough indulgence with quality cacao notes. Great for those moments when I want chocolate that aligns with my wellness goals.

Loved them however sugar content is still too high.

I really wanted to like the Unreal brand, as I love chocolate candy but always try to find better options. For me, the Unreal snacks tend to be unlike the "real thing" which leaves me feeling like I indulged without really enjoying.
I really like that use better ingredients but would really only purchase them if they were on sale. I don’t think the price point is worth it.
The coconut ones in the blue packaging taste unreal. Literally addicting. Among the top brands for healthy chocolate alternatives that are out there. However, I think it's only worth it to buy the big bag of these from Costco, the price for a regular sized bag is kinda unreal as well. Lives up to the name...
Unreal Snacks are a total game-changer! They offer the perfect balance of deliciousness and healthier ingredients, without sacrificing taste. The candy options are rich in flavor, yet free from artificial junk, and I love that they use real, clean ingredients. Whether it's their chocolate or nut butter cups, each snack feels indulgent but guilt-free. A must-try for anyone looking to satisfy their sweet tooth while still making a mindful choice!
