These are wonderful! The flavor of the frosting and filling is perfect, rich and sweet, but not too sweet. It's perfect for a light snack. I used to pull off the crust of poptarts because I hated the stale taste, but the crust on these is DELICIOUS. It tastes so moist and fresh, reminding me a little of what a real pastry tastes like. I don't get a stomach ache from these like I did after eating poptarts... and these are organic! I am definitely buying these from now on!

If you are wondering about the ingredients, they are:

Organic wheat flour, organic evaporated cane juice invert, organic palm oil, organic evaporated cane juice, organic brown sugar, organic whole wheat flour, organic corn starch, organic vital wheat gluten, organic dextrose, organic molasses, organic rice starch, sea salt, leavening (baking soda, cream of tartar), natural brown sugar flavor, organic maple flavor, organic cinnamon, organic honey, organic rice bran extract, organic cocoa, organic caramel flavor, organic vanilla flavor, organic caramel color, algin sodium citrate, monocalcium phosphate, whey protein isolate (milk).

The Frosted Strawberry ones are really good, too.

I don't like toaster pastries, but my husband and children love them. We've been really watching for hidden sources corn syrup in things for the last year or so, and the big name brand toaster pastries do use corn syrup. We found these, and they don't contain corn syrup or gelatin. They are shelf stable for longer than it takes my family to eat them. Not nutritious, but you don't expect toaster pastries to be nutritious. It is a snack that I don't feel guilty about having on hand.
This is my son's favorite flavor, and my daughter likes them a lot as well. She prefers the chocolate though. The pastry part is much like the big name pastries in consistency and texture. The frosting is sweet, and the filling is a true maple flavor.
If you look at the ingredients and don't know what inverted sugars are, they are sugars that are made sweeter, usually by heating and adding a bit of an acid like lemon juice, which makes it an organic and natural alternative to high fructose corn syrup.

If you a Pop Tart loving adult...these are great! But...let's face it, the majority of the "toaster pastry" population is school age so here is a review from my kiddos (ages 7 & 12):

-Thin layer of icing is just sweet enough...more of a hint than a mouthful of hard sugary coating.
-Tastes even better when you toast them!
-The inside is the best part...its not gritty or jelly-ish.

We buy a lot of organic and sometimes there just isn't an organic approach that my kids love...but this brand and flavor is a HUGE exception. My son has ADHD so I try to keep HFCS, refined sugars, and ALL artificial dyes out of his diet. This brand helps me AND he sees as a treat.

I have an Amazon subscription to these and the strawberry. My kids love them and they are better than other brands. I buy them from Amazon with a subscription and they are much less than in my local grocery store.

In a effort to eliminate High Fructose Corn Syrup from our family diet, I've been searching high and low for substitutes that won't leave the family feeling deprived. The kids (and the dad!) love these Maple Brown Sugar Toaster Pastries. I can recommend them with confidence!

I love natures path toaster pastries but hate the high price, normally, over 3.00 per box...i got a pack of 12 boxes which came out to about 1.66 per box with amazon...THANK YOU...will definitely keep coming back with prices like these and gourmet products that are still fresh and taste great!

These are delicious and so much better for you than the other toaster pastries. Good prices too. My husband and I both love them.

I had to stop eating frosted Pop-Tarts when I became vegetarian 18 years ago (the gelatin in the frosting). The brown sugar cinnamon ones were always my favorites. And my poor son, who is four, had never so much as tasted a Pop-Tart due to all of the nasty additives and HFCS in them. I'd tried health-food-store versions before but they tasted like dog biscuits and they never even had the option of frosted ones. Enter Nature's Path Organic Toaster Pastries. We are huge fans and keep them on hand all the time now. Fantastic guilt-free treat!

These are not your typical "health food" copy of a national brand product, which may look similar but tastes terrible. These toaster pastries actually taste so good, you won't believe they're organic. No junk in them to make you feel guilty giving them to your kids. My son took a box to camp and ate them cold! I've ordered them on subscription and only tried them because I loved the frosted brown sugar Pop Tarts (but didn't like the ingredients). Try them, you'll love them.

It's been my goal to try all of the flavors of these toaster pastries. The Brown Sugar Maple was another tasty one. I might like this one the best because of it's richer flavor. As far as the fruit flavors go, I'd say the Strawberry is the best, followed closely by the Apple, and Cherry Pomegranate.

The only two flavors I haven't tried yet are the Blueberry and the Chocolate. I'm sure the Blueberry will be just as good as the other fruit flavors. The chocolate I'm not so sure about.

Remember, whichever one you do choose, always go for the frosted versions.
