As someone with a sweet tooth who also needs dairy free stuff to taste good, these are repeat snacks for me. Bonus: some are organic and / or are higher in protein!
Hands down, these are my favorite protein bars. They actually taste like a candy bar and you'd never know they're vegan!
Misfits Protein Bars
Hu is possibly the best-tasting dairy free chocolate I've tried. If you like a darker chocolate, you'll love both the regular and filled varieties! The Hu gems are just as good.

WOW. These bars are incredible!! How are they plant-based with 12g of protein? They really do taste like a gooey, crumbly cookie.
Lenny & Larry's Cookie-fied Protein Bar - Cookies & Creme Vegan
These remind me of a chocolate-covered granola bar or crispy bar. They are dense, chewy, and I'd never guess they're vegan.
Nugo Vegan Protein Bars
Dairy free and gluten free, these donuts are my new favorite. I'm partial to the vanilla and strawberry. The glaze is so thick and I'm still shocked these are high protein and dairy free! (P.S. I tried the Drumroll muffins, and they're a little dry. ...

Is this better than a real brownie? No. But for a vegan protein brownie, I'm seriously impressed! They're soft with a nice chocolate flavor that doesn't have a weird aftertaste.

If you like Mexican wedding cookies or Italian wedding cookies, these taste like the real thing, in mini form!
Siete Grain Free Mexican Shortbread Cookies
These fig truffles are one of my ALL-TIME favorite dairy free chocolate snacks. I prefer the fig flavor to the date or banana ones. When these are in stock, I have them on monthly subscription, and sometimes buy extra. They're that good!
That's it. Organic Chocolate Fig Truffles
Better than Oreos or other basic sandwich cookies, these are thick and creamy with incredible flavor that you'd never know was plant based.
Back To Nature Cookies
The perfect mix between a graham cracker and animal cracker! And they're organic!
Annie's Organic Birthday Cake Bunny Grahams
These tiny rice cakes are packed with flavor! The frosting drizzles are SO yummy, and I've loved every flavor I've tried. The ingredients are fairly minimal, too.
Drizzilicious
I was skeptical, but Hershey's managed to create a plant-based chocolate bar that actually tastes good! For a cheaper chocolate option, it's a winner.
HERSHEY'S Plant Based Creamy Almond Sea Salt
Do I think these actually boost metabolism? No idea but that's not why I tried them. I like the amount of protein and ingredients overall. And they taste good, which is always a MUST.
METABOLISM PROTEIN SUPER BAR
Dairy free caramels are not easy to find. These hit the spot and don't taste too coconutty —and I say that as someone who does not love coconut flavored foods.
Cocomels Sea Salt Coconut Milk Caramels
The muffins and cookies are my favorite. They're SO dense! Yes, they taste “healthy-ish” but in a good way, if that makes sense. If you typically like flax in foods, you'll love these!

Savoury Snacks
You don't have to compromise on flavor or satisfaction with these savory dairy free snack options.
Somehow, all the flavors are dairy free and they actually taste good—not bland or healthy.

Such a good alternative to Goldfish crackers! These are dairy free but don't taste fake.
MadeGood Star Puffed Cheddar Crackers
The white cheddar has a surprisingly intense flavor for being dairy free. The flavoring is powdery, and coats the pretzels. If you love a cheesy flavored pretzel but can't or don't eat dairy, give these a try!
FitJoy Pretzels
Trust me on these beans. They are packed with flavor and beyond better than roasted edamame. I offered some to my brother-in-law and he said, “You want me to eat dried beans?!” And then he tried them, and now he's hooked. They're that good.
Bada Bean Bada Boom Plant-Based Crunchy Broad Beans
These chips surprised me! The seasoning is perfectly bold and they're slightly thicker than regular tortilla chips, but still crunchy. And, they have 10g of protein per serving!
