Ordered 3 weeks ago and still not dispatched. My first email to the email address on their site got completely ignored. My chase up email for the email address from their social media I got an auto response saying they’ll try and get back to me in up to 4 business days. Trying to get a refund now, they’ve lost a customer Show details
I usually order the Hydramama watermelon flavour and really enjoy it, but decided to try Hydramama mixed berry and honestly thought it was awful. The flavour tasted very artificial and left a really unpleasant aftertaste. One sachet barely had any taste, so I kept adding more from a second sachet just to get some flavour, and by the time I could… Read more
actually taste it, the artificial taste was overwhelming.
For the price, I just don’t think it’s worth it anymore. Even the watermelon flavour is so subtle that you often need more than one sachet, which makes it way too expensive to keep buying regularly.
I originally left a comment on their Instagram about my experience, but it was deleted, so I thought I’d leave my review here instead in case it helps someone else avoid wasting their money. I’ll definitely be looking for a cheaper alternative brand from now on.
I have contacted this company multiple times regarding mould in their product that I and my child have been consuming. No response. Will not be purchasing any products again. I have spent so much money on hydramama and beauty bites. Extremely disappointed that you cant even respond to my emails.

I absolutely loved beauty bites! I used to eat one a day and when they were recently half price at chemist warehouse decided to stock up on them. I noticed when I opened 1, it looked like it was off and had a mouldy film over it so I proceeded to open another and another to find I received not only 1 but 3 mouldy beauty bites. Super… Read more
dissatisfied with this, I contacted krumbled via email (no response) then instagram where they finally responded only to tell me it was a third party issue and to contact chemist warehouse where I purchased them from and not krumbled who is the manufacturer direct? I’m sorry but you as the manufacturer shouldn’t be selling mouldy products that are still in date! Clearly there is a problem in the warehouse but krumbled disregarded my messages and ignored my concerns. I received no refund, no replacement. Left a very bad impression with no concern for customers or quality at all and honestly glad I didn’t eat these whilst I was pregnant as this is a massive concern! Please check your bites before putting them in your mouth! Disgusting.
I usually purchase beauty bites in store but it’s becoming harder to buy them. I jumped online and also found that Krumble Foods sell mini + me so purchased both. Products arrived within the week & packaged nicely. Show reply
Mouldy food, poor customer service – Ordered $100 worth of beauty bites - half were covered in a layer of mould however still in date for 9 more months, I sent three emails over 7 days and no response, commented on their recent post, comment was deleted and I was told Via Instagram message that customer service would be in touch however nothing. Frustrating to see how prompt the… Read more
Company is in marketing their product on social media , however happy to send customers toxic mould and not bother to return emails, apologise Or compensate.

Still waiting for my order to be shipped. Been over 2 weeks and was told it would be shipped end of last week. Have emailed for a refund and now no response. Wouldn't recommend or purchase from them. Show details
Follow-up · They never responded to my request for a refund, but my package was shipped a day after this review on the 12/06. Still wouldnt recommend. Everything tasted ok but not worth the stress or waiting.
Never received product + terrible customer service – I never received their products and they never sent a replacement nor offer me a refund despite me having to initiate numerous emails. I've asked them for a refund three times now and they are continuously avoiding it by taking a long time to reply… Read more
or else replying to say they are checking on my order, which at that point has been late for over a month!
What kind of a proper Aussie business behaves this way? Don't let your popularity get to your head that you don't even bother to attend to new customers who spent hard earned money to try your aggressively marketed products. Shame on you.
Follow-up · Eventually received a refund. Won't bother trying to order again.
Absolute terrible company. Made an order and 15 days later i still haven't received it. I've emailed them and they either ignore me or send an automated email about them moving offices which says if I reply to their email my order and query will go to the back of the queue!
Follow-up · The product did eventually arrive a lot later than expected. The product was good. The taste was better than many of the others I've tried.
Thank you for your honest review. We are grateful… Read more
Positive reviews
To be honest, I ordered hydramama sachets before I read the reviews . As far as delivery goes, I was pleasantly surprised! I ordered on the weekend and then had tracking info by Monday! It has just been delivered today(Wednesday- I’m in the inner city suburbs of Sydney and ordered to our local parcel locker) no issues from what I can see from… Read more
opening first sachet . Haven’t tried the product yet but so far so good on the delivery front and first sachet I opened looked ok so we’ll see as I progress through the box!
Love their beauty bites. Been buying them for a few years. Now My favs are always sold out. I also think they have made a significant management error with their ‘relocation’ business planning, where they should have put shipping on hold or very clearly changed their shipping logistics company.

Received a sample of the white chocolate and macadamia beauty bites in my second hydramama order. I hadn't considered trying the beauty bites but now that I've tried it, I'm considering it. Not overly sweet but delicious. Kind of like a soft white chocolate macadamia cookie actually. I love the hydramama drinks, they've been a life saver for a… Read more · 1
soft drink lover but my partner also loves them after his gym work outs too. Received orders quickly when placed too.

Negative reviews
Takes sooo long to get tracking information. Ordered on the 4th and emailed on the 10th to follow up and got a standardised email saying they are working on it. Finally got tracking on the 17th. I enjoy the product but the lengthy delays on shipping is what is putting me off ordering again. Show details
I wish there was a no star option. I should have read the reviews before ordering, it’s obvious they delete poor reviews off their website as 4.8 star reviews compared to 1.6 star reviews here which are all honest!! I ordered nearly two weeks ago, I’ve received no dispatch email, no responses to my follow ups and usually I wouldn’t complain about… Read more
this however my friend ordered a week after me and her order was shipped next day and delivered the day after, 2 day turn around!! And our orders are practically identical. What an absolute joke, instead of bringing out new flavours they should focus on getting peoples orders to them and replying to their emails!
Should have looked at the reviews before ordering. I ordered hydramama products and it's been 1 week since and no dispatch confirmation. Website also doesn't state how long it takes for dispatch. I sent them an email and was shocked with the auto response as it says it will respond within 5-7 business day. Show details

I love this product and I order regularly as it helps with pregnancy hydration for me! but I have to be honest this has the be the slowest shipped product I have ever ordered and I genuinely don't understand whyyy? I have just made another order from hydramamas and have also made one from a similar product from a different company and the other… Read more
company have already shipped and is expected in two days, hoping it is good b cause I'm so over waiting 2-3 weeks.
I would give 0 stars if I could! One of the most unethical brands that exists with the worst return policy. They delete any queries or comments about negative reaction or experience to their products and highly police their socials. Now about their products, their best sellers - beauty bites - to get the regular dose of collagen you need to eat 3… Read more
of the bars. The packs are not sealed properly, 8/10 bites were open on one side in the bundle. Rather buy chief collagen bars that are clean and cheap compared to this shite. Their mini and me electrolytes - again to get the necessary dosage of electrolyte you need to have 3 -4 packs making it the most expensive electrolyte on the market, to make things worse some of the flavours like cola, lemonade etc taste downright synthetic yuck Their skincare brand habitual beauty is a scam. With latest reviews being 6months to 3 years old, the products smell like bleach and made me breakout for the first time in my 40yrs! Again they posted my 3 star reviews of the eye cream but did not publish my 1 and 2 star reviews for their moisturizer and mask.
Do not fall for this crap brands unless you want your wallet to crumble
Wish I had of checked reviews before ordering. It's been 2 weeks and no communication at all. I have tried emailing and no response other than a generic email saying not to email again as that will mean I will be pushed to the back of the queue - a very rude response in my opinion. Won't order from them again. I am sure there will be many more companies that offer the same product with less customer communication issues. Show details
I have ordered twice since as the product ia actually quite good, and although not as quick as some… Read more
The service is actually terrible. Shipping takes well over 2 weeks. They spend more time sending stuff to influencers and in damage control on social media than shipping their orders. After waiting for my order for 10 days and no movement on its whereabouts online, I resulted to email to ask if my order would be shipped soon. No reply. After 14… Read more
days I commented on their Instagram and Facebook politely, MANY people were quick to reply to me saying they have had the same issue with slow shipping, however the company are quick to reply to DM for update on your order, when you DM the reply is generic and says it should be shipped soon. And then they delete your comment online for damage control. Finally shipped. I have bought this product multiple times from local small businesses and thought I’d support the company directly. Never again. A not to bad product that needs a lot of work on its logistics. I paid for express shipping also, I understand that this is for once it has left the business but I mean the business didn’t even ship the order fast so no point in express. Too bad to the poor women who purchase this for terrible morning sickness and are relying on this for some relief.
Product finally arrived. Most flavours are good, stay away from cola. One of my blackcurrant… Read more
I ordered the Mini + Me Hydrate and spent over $100. After more than two weeks, I still haven’t received the order, any dispatch confirmation, or tracking. When I contacted customer service to ask what had happened, I received a generic automated email explaining the team had taken a Christmas break and asking customers not to follow up. I… Read more
completely respect businesses taking a break, but there was no notice on the website, at checkout, or in the order confirmation advising of extended delays.
The issue isn’t the delay itself — it’s the lack of proactive communication after payment. Customers shouldn’t be left in the dark wondering whether their order has even been packed or sent.
Very disappointing experience so far. I hope communication and transparency improve.
Worst customer service. Sent an email asking for refund after 8 weeks for them to send shipping information the next day but no email. Then an email saying 'sorry it's been delivered no refund'. Woeful. Show details

Purchased $150 of mini&me - made a mistake and emailed for change of one product within 4 hours of placing order. Took 8-9 days to ship and there was no attempt to change the flavour of the product...i've made a couple of ordering errors through the years and never had such inflexible responses and the time it takes to respond is very very long. They won't respond at all to let me know how to return the product...very poor Show details

2 X experiences of long shipping times and poor customer service. I requested a refund after realizing that the shipping was still taking forever but never received a response. They have spoken about moving locations, however I feel like this could have been much better managed and maybe a pause on shipping would have been a better approach. Won’t be ordering again.
It took 3 weeks and 6 days for them to even ship my product from when I ordered it. In that time my morning sickness stopped (the reason for the purchase) and I lost my baby - when I contacted them to request to cancel the order they lied and told me they had already shipped it. In reality the still didn't ship it for another 7 days. Unethical - I would give zero stars if I could. Show details
Great idea and all but stop trying to reach new customers with all the ads and social media influencers and people shilling youe products and concentrate on being a better business for your existing paying customers not the influencers or friends Show details

Purchased a week ago and no sign of dispatch or confirmation. They say they're relocating and ask people to avoid sending them emails following up lol! Extremely unprofessional... they're too busy investing in ads instead of working on their customer service and logistics!!

I placed an order 2 weeks ago for hydramama and it still hasn’t been shipped. I have emailed them and never got a response. They haven’t sent any updates about delays. Reading other reviews I worry I will never get the order. Show details
Great product! However, it’s been over a week and my order has not been shipped. Difficult to get in contact with team. No response on when my order will be shipped. I would be hesitant to order from the website if you need the products ASAP. I will be outsourcing next time. Show details
There is a note on their website about delivery delay cause of warehouse move. It’s now the 11th of Sept and I’ve emailed about my order. They’ve now responded and told me that there is a delay because of the warehouse move and to see the delay on their website. Which is 7-14 business days, it’s been 4 weeks. Not only that they told me part of my… Read more
order was unavailable due to “damage in the move” and I could choose a diff product to make sure no further delay and then offered to upgrade to express like it was doing me a favour. This is surely a scam because why are they still selling and unable to send product. Never again will I purchase from them. This is my second purchase and my first purchase also took 4 weeks to be delivered. Prior to warehouse move.
