Without a doubt the new sf reeses peanut butter cups. they are so close to the real thing, which used to be my second favorite candy (now we just need sugar free snickers and sugar free butterfingers!!!)

Default Russell Stovers

Russell Stovers chocolates are the BEST!!! My favorites are the peppermint patties...but there's also choco truffles, peanut clusters, choco toffee, peanut butter cups, choco caramels, and that's just the regular size. They also have different flavors of miniature candies. The thing I like best about them is that they are small and the serving sizes consist of several pieces, so I can mix and match during the day with out going overboard or getting board.

i've attested to other products, but 5 min ago, i had a Carb solutions chocolate almond candy bar. the chocolate tastes like the kind of chocolate found in goodbars, or nestle, and it had tiny bits of almond in it. wicked good. and 0 or 1 carbs per bar. good deal.

I have to agree with Freckles - the Russel Stovers are wonderful and are small so you can eat just a few instead of the atkins advantage, I end up eating the whole thing! Also the Russel Stovers make me feel less sick than the Hershey's when I eat the same amount of candy.

I've found some sugar free salt water taffy, it was delicious, but unfortunately I ate too much and it gave me major gas and bloating! Just be careful on the portions, those sugar alcohols really do it to me!

I have to say the Ross Chocolate Bars are the best tasting - more like real chocolate and the Russell Stovers Truffles are a close second.

Are any of these candies made without sugar alcohols? Sugar Alcohols and I do not get along. I end up spending the day in the bathroom.

I like the Atkins peanut butter cups and the peanut butter sticks though I don't care much for their other bars. From a post here I tried puredelight and I must say the carmel is as smooth and good tasting as any bar I have tried...sugar or no sugar. I also like the carbsolution almond bar. Guess I just like choclate although I only have one or two a week at the most.
