10 Best Rice Cakes | UK Nutritionist Reviewed

In at number one, we have these gorgeous Organic Multi-Grain Rice Cakes from Clearspring - a UK-based family business specialising in organic Japanese and European foods.

You're in good hands with Clearspring, who really care about creating organic, vegan, and macrobiotic foods and ingredients. Light and crispy, these rice cakes are healthy and delicious. Eat them straight from the pack or with a range of toppings or spreads. It's snack time!

It's time for something a little different with Kallo's Apple & Cinnamon Rice & Corn Cakes! Made from a low fat, gluten-free recipe, each rice and corn cake is only 32 calories while providing a gorgeous touch of sweetness.

Perfect for those who love subtle flavours, these rice and corn cakes are sure to become your new vice. They also work wonderfully paired with toppings like cashew or peanut butter. With only a few natural ingredients suitable for veggies and vegans, this Kallo offering is a fab choice. 

These Chocolate Orange Rice Cakes by Nature's Store are gluten-free and made without any artificial colours, flavours, or preservatives, but they're also devilishly delicious! The contrast of the chocolate orange flavour with the wholegrain rice cake makes for a super-satisfying snack.

Containing rich, dark chocolate blended with orange oil, these rice cakes are a luxurious snack option while still keeping it reasonably healthy compared to biscuits or desserts. And with the mainly wholesome, natural ingredients, you could do a lot worse!

Biona Organic can always be trusted when it comes to organic, sustainably-made food products, and their Quinoa Rice Cakes are very tasty. Made simply from rice, quinoa, and sea salt, they make a delicious base for toppings or dips but are also great on their own.

The combination of wholegrain rice and quinoa creates a lovely nutty taste that works well with avocado, cucumber, and cream cheese or even almond butter. Delicious, nutritious, and totally worth buying in bulk if you eat rice cakes regularly.

If some sweet snacking is what you're here for, Kallo's Dark Chocolate Rice Thins are divine! They're also organic, gluten-free and made without any artificial colours, flavours, or preservatives.

If you can somehow restrain yourself from eating the entire packet, these rice cake thins provide a guilt-free chocolate fix — and really rich, good quality dark chocolate at that. At 55 calories per rice cake thin, they're a delicious after-dinner treat!

Marmite Rice Cakes? Now we're talking! If you love savoury flavours or are just looking for something to go perfectly with cheese, you're probably going to love these. Just be careful, they're very addictive!

Marmite yeast extract isn't suitable for those on a gluten-free diet as it contains a blend of grains, including wheat, but it does offer vitamins and minerals like folic acid, niacin, and thiamine. We all know Marmite's slogan of “you either love it or hate it”, but we think on rice cakes, it's downright delicious.

Highly rated on Waitrose, everyone seems to love these Rice Cakes With No Added Salt, which are also organic, gluten-free, vegan, and contain less than 3% fat. Each rice cake is only 18 calories making them the ideal everyday go-to for toppings like hummus or cheese.

Light, thin and tasty, these rice cakes will perfectly complement the tastes and flavours of your chosen topping. An extremely healthy choice with the only ingredient being organic wholegrain brown rice which some will adore, but for others might be a little too angelic!

For those who fancy a salty treat but are trying to steer clear of crisps, Salt and Vinegar Snack a Jacks are just the ticket. Popped rather than fried, each bag contains 78 calories and is made without any artificial colours or preservatives, making for a healthy snack that satisfies.

Coming in a bag the size of a crisp packet containing small rice cakes, these Snack a Jacks are a convenient treat on the go. However, the salt and vinegar flavour is rather bold, so they will probably be best-loved by only the most savoury snackers.

Itsu's tagline is "Eat Beautiful", and their Yoghurt & Berry Rice Cakes look that good. Both gluten-free and suitable for vegetarians, these are perfect for breakfast but make an elegant snack for any time of the day.

Made of whole grain and white rice for a crisp crunch, coated with yoghurt and sprinkled with wild berries, they look super-healthy, but they do contain a lot of sugar. They also have a long ingredients list containing things like skimmed milk powder, soya lecithin, and sugar, which might not be too appealing for those who like to keep their snacks simple.

If you've got a bit of a sweet tooth but you want something low in calories, Caramel Snack a Jacks are a yummy choice. Slightly sticky with a temptingly sweet taste, each rice cake contains only 51 calories — but be aware that they are very moreish!

The bold caramel flavour makes these rice and corn cakes a good alternative to biscuits or chocolates, but the ingredients list isn't exactly angelic. Containing artificial flavours, colours, and emulsifiers, these rice cakes may be low-cal, but they're not the healthiest pick.
