Koochikoo Plant Based Candies – Product Review

Koochikoo Plant Based Candies – Product Review – Koochikoo plant based candies are unique in the sense that they are USDA organic, without sugar and are made from prebiotic tapioca and are gluten free.

I’ve always been a mindless snacker, and the quarantine has only exacerbated my bad habits. I’ve noticed that munching sugary snacks just makes me crave more of them. So, I have realized that if I crave sugar I might as well give in a little. I like combining the craving food with a healthful one, so I though I’d give Koochikoo candies a try.

Koochikoo Plant Based Candies – Product Review

So, Koochikoo uses organic tapioca fiber which is naturally sweet. And I am truly obsessed by these. I wouldn’t even notice a difference between these and a standard sugar-y candies if I tried them side by side. Additionally, these taste great – have unique flavors, are not overly sweet, and are made from quality ingredients. 

Tapioca is the starch extracted from the cassava root, a tuber used as a food staple in many parts of the world. As per webmd  , the minerals in tapioca can provide important health benefits. For example, calcium is important for keeping your bones strong and preventing the development of osteoporosis.

Tapioca also contains iron, an essential mineral we need to help transport oxygen throughout the body. Modified tapioca starch may have properties that help lower insulin levels. In one study, diabetic mice on high-fat diets were given modified tapioca starch. So that itself is so exciting.

Koochikoo candies come in a variety of super fruit flavor combinations and are available in a variety of sizes to fit your need. Some of the flavors include Fuji Apple, Pineapple- Orange, Pomegranate- Blueberry, Blueberry-Lemon, Lemon-Lime and Peppermint. Each flavor probably has its own advocates. Get the variety pack to figure out which one you like!

Lemon-Lime and Peppermint are my personal favorite.

Where do you buy these?

These candies are available on Amazon, Costco, TJ Maxx, Home Goods and Ross Stores. Here is a link to their amazon page.

Final Thoughts –

Finally, I’m so happy I stumbled upon these candies because they are amazing and they go everywhere with me.  Moreover, their variety of flavors they offer make sure I never get bored and the price point is fantastic! These are definitely a winner in my eyes. Additionally, the flavors are delicious and my girls ages 12 and 10 approve these too. They don’t taste like regular sugary candy, but they are fantastic.
