Quest Nutrition Coated Candies, Peanut Butter, Candy, 1g Sugar, 10g Protein, 4g Net Carbs, Gluten Free, Keto Friendly, 12 Count

Love these Keto friendly snacks. They help me feel like I'm indulging, but I'm also getting a nice amount of protein and muscle creation/sustainability

I bought these Quest candies for when I just need something sweet. They have a lot of protein, quality ingredients, have always been fresh and taste great. They are very similar to the name brand version of this candy, and are a great price, too.

These keto friendly candies taste very close to candies made with real sugar. These have a lot of erythritol which is keto friendly, and this uses enough that it may be almost too sweet for some. I haven’t eaten this kind of candy for years and I was pleasantly surprised with how good these are. If I was used to eating a lot of sugar, I might like these less and prefer sugary candy, but for an occasional treat or snack, I’m very impressed. These are not low calorie, they are low sugar. They fit fine into a keto diet, but for those interested in weight loss, it is still important not to overdo it. I have about two or three of these packets a week. I haven’t had any unpleasant GI side effects or any other unpleasant effects from these, eating as much as I do. For anyone avoiding candy and sugar, looking for an occasional sweet peanut buttery treat, these are likely to be just the product you’re looking for.

I didn’t expect these to be this good. They have a satisfying crunch, rich peanut butter flavor, and just enough sweetness without the sugar crash. Best part? 10g of protein per serving. They taste like a guilty pleasure, but they’re actually keto-friendly and guilt-free. Perfect for tossing in a gym bag or sneaking during a work call. If you’re trying to stay on track but still need your candy fix — this is the one.

I love this candy. Even though it's sugarfree it taste real good. I will buy it again. It takes care of my sweet tooth without the sugar. I often look for things I can eat as a pre-diabetic. When I google it said it was ok to eat if you are pre-diabetic but of course check with your doctor.

I bought these on 06/06/2025 for $19.69. The “Best By” expiration date is for 07/30/2025. The copyright for Quest Nutrition, LLC is for 2024, so the reduced price was likely to clear old stock. I’ll go through these fast, but it’s worth mentioning for anyone who plans to keep these for more than a couple months or wants a fresh product. When the price is higher, it may be new stock. They taste fresh, or at least not stale. These don’t remind me of Peanut M&Ms, despite the attempt to dupe them. The first ingredient is Peanuts, so they have that checked, but the second is Erythritol which is an artificial sweetener that has a cooling effect. The third ingredient is Palm Kernel oil which makes up the “ChocolateY” confectionary filling, then Whey Protein, more Erythritol, Sodium Caseinate, THEN Cocoa… and more ingredients I don’t need to list to explain the flavor. I state the ingredients to paint a picture in your mind of this flavor. Erythritol is the main flavor after peanut, overwhelming everything else, with a hint of cocoa. It’s sweet, but if you’ve had Erythritol you’ll know it has a hard to describe cooling sensation. It has the texture of a Peanut M&M, but the flavor reminds me most of the Peanut Chocolate covered Drumstick Ice Cream Cones. The Erythritol is cooling enough that it reminds me more of a peanut ice cream cone than Peanut M&Ms. This is not a good source of protein, but if you’ve like me, it could be methadone for your Peanut M&M addiction. I was eating way too many Peanut M&Ms, so while the flavor isn’t the same, the texture is on point and scratch the same itch. I’d rather be eating Peanut M&Ms because a few bags of these in a day would probably make me sick while M&Ms would just make me fat and happy. I let my girlfriend try some. She had one and won’t touch them. Hated it. If you don’t tolerate Erythritol, Sucralose, or Allulose sugar substitutes, the aftertaste could make these inedible to you. Obviously it’s poison if you have a peanut allergy, but there’s so many ingredients in here I’d check them for things you don’t tolerate before buying. I won’t buy them again, but I will eat them all.

I made the mistake of purchasing these when the weather in Arizona climbed to 84°. They arrived melted and gross. I placed them in the fridge and they are ok. Again, this was a result of MY miscalculating the weather!! They are delicious if you order them during the cool months. My husband suffers from dry mouth from radiation treatment, and usually cannot eat candy like this. These mildly stimulate saliva production in the mouth, (they must have xylitol in them?! I’ve not yet read the ingredients). The level of sweetness is perfection. The texture is good. Nothing off putting about these. The protein helps me control in between meal hunger. The quantity in each package is generous. I’m very pleased with this product.

Candy with protein, does its job. Does kind of taste artificial but I’ll buy it again.
