Editorial policy

Sugargoous follows a strict editorial policy. We buy every product we review at retail, unless a brand sends a sample for a specific comparison, which we disclose. We do not accept gifts, free trips, or paid placements. Our editors have no financial stake in the brands we cover.

Reviews are written by the editor who tested the product, then edited by a second editor for accuracy and clarity. We fact-check ingredients, weights, and price at the time of testing. We do not publish a review until the product has been tasted by at least two people on our team.

We do not allow brands to preview or approve reviews before publication. We do not remove negative reviews. We do not use AI to generate review scores. Our opinions are our own, based on hands-on testing.

We may update reviews if a product changes. We note the update date at the top of the review. If you spot an error, please contact editorial@sugargoous.com.
