definitely worth trying
From Anonymous of Chicago, Illinois on .
I’m going to leave a similar review for all of the candy I try from here and a lot of this will probably apply to most of the bars. I know that a lot of this is personal preference so I’m going to give specifics and you can decide if it’s a negative or positive. If you’ve had the traditional versions of these bars it’s hard not to compare them but it’s probably the best way to explain! To preface I’ve never been a huge candy or chocolate person so I only purchased these because Halloween is approaching and I’m nostalgic! (1) The chocolate they use is darker than “Normal” milk chocolate. But very smooth. (2) the peanut butter is smoother, creamier and “wetter“ than Reece’s cups. A negative for me but I’m sure lots of people think that’s a good thing. (3) So sweet!! If you’ve been off of processed sugar and other sweets for a while then beware. I can only have a few bites at a time. (*) I know the review seems negative but these are good and I love that this is an option for vegans. If you’re someone who’s never had a traditional peanut butter cup and you don’t mind super sweet and chewy you’ll probably love it. But if you’re newly switching from regular candy they will likely be an acquired taste. And if you LOVE chocolate in general you’ll probably like it. If you’re like me and aren’t a big sweets or chocolate fan this won’t turn you into one.
Delicious!
From Stella of Lexington, Kentucky on .
These are great! I was a big Reese's fan, and I like these even more! The chocolate is so gooey without being messy, and the peanut butter filling is incredibly smooth and creamy, which I prefer to Reese's relatively dry and gritty filling. I ordered a whole box of these for Halloween (just for my partner and I). No regrets.
Perfect Vegan PB Cup
From Emily of Depew, New York on .
It is hard to find a vegan alternative to Reese 's that hits all the right components; a good peanut butter, a hint of salt, and not an overly bitter chocolate. Cleo's delivers on all of these. The chocolate is still a little "dark", but for what it is, it satisfies. The PB is straight from the jar creamy, and it has the salt to it!! I really like these and wish they made mini ones too. One of the best dairy free peanut butter cups out there.
Amazing, Delicious, 10/10
From Anna Lapchenko of Everett, Washington on .
I devoured these cups in no time! I have missed Reese's so much but this blows even them out of the water. The chocolate is darker (obviously, not milk) and the peanut butter is actually creamier. Reese's actually comes off as too sweet, artificial with crappy peanut butter when you compare them to Cleo's. This was perfectly executed! I will be buying more for my pantry! All in all, Cleo's is clearly superior to Reese's and I think most, if not all, people will enjoy these cups more.
Near Perfect!
From Nima L. of memphis, Tennessee on .
These come really close to tasting just like Reese's cups. If you're looking for a Reese's taste-a-like, these are probably the best out there. Perfect amount of salt, the chocolate tastes just like real milk chocolate.. delicious. As far as texture goes, it is super smooth, but in my personal opinion I would like for the peanut butter to be more pastey like reese's is, because reese's has actual ground peanuts in their pb, but nonetheless, these really satisfied my craving for them. I haven't had one in almost 3 years, up until that point i've probably had one almost every day of my life. I am so happy these exist.
The most delicious peanut butter cup!s!
From Chris McVarish of Bellingham, Washington on .
Go Max Go makes the most delicious vegan candy in the world!!! This company's commitment to alleviating animal suffering by using 100% Vegan ingredients is inspirational and their candy is out of this world! They have created an incredible line of Vegan candy, which far surpasses all non vegan and vegan candy in the marketplace today. Cleo's peanut butter cup is an incredible chocolatey peanut butter sensation, which is absolutely perfect. I have given this candy as a gift to my family and friends, both vegan and non vegan, and everyone loved it. Cleo's peanut butter cup has my highest recommendation possible!
Soooo Gooood!
From Troy W. of Saint Paul, Minnesota on .
There are a few dark chocolate peanutbutter cups on the market that are vegan (Justin's, Theo), but I like milk chocolate much better, so I'm sooooo glad Cleo's exist because they are amazing! Creamy chocolate, plentiful, but not too much peanutbutter, and no unnecessary papery cup liner!
my favorite
From jen of fishers, Indiana on .
These are my favorite vegan pb cups. salty, gooey, and oh-so yummy.
Excellent
From ARBIE of ADA, Michigan on .
Very good, melty so best kept in fridge.
Better Than Reese's
From Jill Finkley of North Collins, New York on .
These are SO good! The chocolate is thick and tastes like chocolate. The peanut butter is smooth and creamy. Together, they are perfectly delicious! Please try them!
Seriously delicious
From Rebecca J. of San Francisco, California on .
First bite, I was comparing and contrasting these to the peanut butter cups I grew up with. I noticed that the peanut butter filling is creamier, not at all like Reese's (as far as I can remember, anyway - it's been years and years since I've had one).
Then it hit me how creamy and delicious the candy was, a pure sugar explosion in my mouth, soft and melty... wow. This is a really amazingly good confection.
Pretty good
From Anonymous of Port Orchard, Washington on .
These certainly don't taste like the real thing, or are even better than the real thing but they are pretty good. they're a nice balance between peanut butter and "milk" chocolate. So far, the best I've tried.
Really good!
From Brittany Faux of Edmonton, Alberta on .
Tasted like the real thing. My only cons are that the texture isn't exactly the same, and they seemed to melt easily, so keep them in the fridge. I didn't take stars away though because taste is all that matters.
Better than Non-Vegan Versions
From TCT328 of Detroit, Michigan on .
Most people buy vegan candy hoping to replace their favorite non-vegan version, but I have to say that these PB cups are far better than Reese's. The PB filling is not salty like Reese's and the chocolate is incredible.
Highly Recommended
From Melissa of Westborough, Massachusetts on .
Successfully satisfies the craving for Reese's!
Simply the BEST--vegan or nonvegan--Peanut Butter Cup Out There!
From Aged Goth of Athens, Alabama on .
These are the stuff of dreams. I can't praise them enough, so I'll end with, "GO GET THEM!"
Wow, Wow, WOW!
From The Picky Vegan of Boulder, Colorado on .
Now this is a PB cup worthy of eating. The family (my husband, three kids and myself) did a comparison of Cleo's cups and Justin's PB cups and we unanimously declared Cleo's the winner. Great smooth PB filling and the chocolate is fantastic.
Almost a Reese's Dupe
From Danielle Sanders of Pennsburg, Pennsylvania on .
These are really good. They are almost an exact match to a Reeses cup. There's something a little different about the flavor of the chocolate and the peanut butter but in a good way. I will definitely be ordering these again. Probably in large quantities.
Best vegan milk chocolate peanut butter cup yet.
From Anonymous of Oak Park, Illinois on .
Bought this along with Justin's and Sjaak's to compare and the Cleo's are by far my favorite. Just as I remember Reese's to be but without the cruelty. If you like dark chocolate, go with Justin's. Didn't get to try Justin's milk chocolate, can't find it anywhere so Cleo's FTW!
Gotta get you some!
From Anonymous of Ontario, California on .
Creamy and smooth. Great taste! Highly recommended.
Totally like Reese's
From Monica of Chicago, Illinois on .
As someone who spent her childhood allowance almost entirely on Reese's, I can vouch that these come closest. They're perfectly sweet and the chocolate is nice and creamy. I ate mine quickly but I bet they would be even better if stuck in the freezer for a bit to get a little crunch.
Like Reese's...but Justin's are better
From Amanda of Tewksbury, Massachusetts on .
If you want a Reese's, this is it. But if you are an adult now, these will be too sweet, and you'll want to go with Justin's.
Do not taste like Reese's
From Isela Redman of Petaluma, California on .
Most of their products are very spot on, but this one was a miss. I might have liked it more had I not been expecting an analog, lol.
Best PB Cups EVER
From Danielle Kichler of Washington, District of Columbia on .
I really missed peanut butter cups after I went vegan. Sjaak's has a nice variety, but they are kind of expensive and hard to find. These are the perfect salty-sweet combo for peanut butter cups. I discovered that keeping them in the fridge makes them taste especially good, so you may want to do that.
Yum yum yum yum!!
From Anonymous of Los Angeles, California on .
These are creamy and delicious! Will be ordering again and again!
Worlds Best Peanut Butter Cups!
From Michelle Taylor of Oakland, California on .
Wow. A friend gave a pack of these to me and they are INCREDIBLE! I love them MUCH more than Reeses Cups. Highly recommend!
OMG!
From Anonymous of Portland, Oregon on .
These are by far the most delicious candies on the planet. Far superior to any other peanut butter cup attempts out there. Wow.
AMAZING!!!!!!!!!
From Anonymous of Prov, Rhode Island on .
WOW!!!!! I am sooo mad I only order 2! What was I thinking? So delicious! I would swear these were not vegan except I have a milk allergy and enjoyed every last bite. Taste like what I remembered Reese's being like!! Way better than Newman's own!
Unbelievable! The best peanut butter cups in the world!
From Susan Sterner of Martinsburg, West Virginia on .
These peanut butter cups are so incredible, I can't even begin to describe them. I thought that I would never taste something like a Reese's peanut butter cup again, until now. But these peanut butter cups don't just taste as good as a Reese's, they taste a million times better than a Reese's! The rice-milk chocolatey coating is the best in the world, and the peanut butter filling is perfectly creamy, sweet, and salty. I couldn't be more impressed!! I would give this a million star rating if I could!
