Delicious. I bought these because I was taking antibiotics that made my mouth taste bad. I don't typically eat candy and I didn't want something sugary. These are the perfect treat. They taste great and have no aftertaste.

I've enjoyed hard candies throughout my life, but unfortunately they all tend to cause pretty bad plaque buildup after eating only one or two. Felt gross and wasn't good for my teeth at all. These haven't caused any gunk to buildup, even after eating a fair number in short order. They don't have a ton of flavor, but you can definitely tell what each candy type is. Only real complaint is the minty ones (mostly white with a sort of coral color) do NOT mix well with anything I drink. That's probably more a mint thing than this brand of candy though. I'll be ordering some again!

I think if you manage your expectations you'll be happy with these. They're not little blocks of pure sugar so they won't taste like a jolly rancher. In fact, the main sugar alcohols (erythritol and xylitol) definitely seem to be chosen as much for tooth health and eating comfort as for sweetening. A major sweetener in the recipe, erythritol, is WAY easier on the gut than other common sugar alcohols and sweeteners, and it doesnt seem to cause blood glucose spikes either. Erythritol is like 3/4 as sweet as plain sugar, and it has a very slight cooling affect, so these candies are really distinct in flavor and not as sweet as some, maybe for the better. Some are definitely better tasting than others, like the peppermint and butterscotch, but they're all pretty ok. The cherry one is the only one I'm really disappointed with. I sorted the flavors out and there are only like 10 or so flavors? I forgot to count. The flavors aren't evenly distributed, i got tons of peppermint and hardly any lemon for example. Overall if you're worried about your teeth or keeping your blood sugar down these are pretty good. *My old review said I disliked the cherry. I take it back, I kinda like it now. The lemon is the worst of all the flavors, blegh! This candy uses xylitol, which is VERY toxic to dogs! Store safely out of reach of dogs!!

I recently tried these sugar-free candies, and while I appreciate the high fiber content and health benefits, the overall flavor profile leaves a lot to be desired. It seems you can't have both healthy and tasty in the same candy! The variety of flavors was disappointing. The yellow candy is probably the best of the bunch, though it’s hard to classify as "lemon" since the flavor is so faint. The purple one doesn’t taste like grape at all, and I honestly couldn't identify the flavor of the green one. Most of the others are virtually flavorless—they’re just "hard." If you prioritize health over taste, these might be fine, but they didn't live up to my expectations.

I was very surprised when I first tasted this candy. I tried one piece and I was pleasantly surprised that it taste like regular sugar hard candy. I will definitely purchase this brand hard candy again. I just wish that it wasn't priced as high, but I understand that healthy foods are little more expensive.

Excellent taste

I have never been more disappointed in a sugar free candy in my life. I did not expect them to taste like real candy, but I did expect them to be edible. These are so gross. I don't know what flavors these are supposed to be. I waisted $27 (with tax) on something I have to pitch in the garbage. They do not accept returns. Keep your money.

There is no fruit flavor to these. Lemon should have a lemon taste, cherry a cherry taste, even lime should taste like lime. These taste like air. Will not get them again unless they get real fruit flavor in them.
