how many colours of smarties are there

There are 8 colours of Nestlé chocolate Smarties: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, violet/purple, pink and brown.

Quick Scoop

• Standard Nestlé Smarties (the chocolate ones sold in the UK, Europe, etc.) come in:
  • Red
  • Orange
  • Yellow
  • Green
  • Blue
  • Violet/purple
  • Pink
  • Brown

• Historically there were small changes (like blue briefly being replaced by white while a natural blue colouring was developed), but current packs list those same 8 colours.

• If someone is talking about American “Smarties” (the tart tablet candy, not chocolate), those typically come in 6 pastel colours per roll, but that is a different product from Nestlé Smarties.

So if the question is “how many colours of Smarties are there?” for the classic Nestlé chocolate version, the answer is 8.
