Did you know that our olfactory senses are fundamental when it comes to sexual stimulation? Studies have shown that specific tastes and smells play an essential part in sexual arousal for both men and women. These stimuli can be pheromonal, as well as tastes and aromas from food and drink.
One of the best methods to incorporate these senses into your bedroom is through the use of edible flavored lubes. If you enjoy food-based foreplay, edible lubes are a hassle-free way to replicate that experience. They're easy to use, budget-friendly, and a lot easier to clean up!
At The Enhanced Male, we always stress the importance of lube when using toys and having sex. A friction-free experience is always going to be more enjoyable for you and your partner. Regardless of whether or not you think you need to use lube, using it will elevate your sex life and add a lot of variety - and fun - to sexual encounters.
Edible lubes are body-safe lubricants designed for safe consumption in moderation.
Some of the most popular edible lubes are those that taste like candy, fresh fruit, and chocolate. If you're a fan of giving/receiving oral, but you or your partner don't enjoy the taste, flavored lubes will be a game changer for you.
Today, we're going to run through the best edible lubes on the market. We'll go into detail about what makes them the best, see how our testers found them, and then give you some advice for choosing a lube.
Edible lubes are body-safe lubricants designed for safe consumption in moderation. They're made to replicate the taste and smell of various delicious consumables. Although they are safe to swallow in moderation, we have to be clear: never ingest them directly out of the bottle - despite how good they may taste!

Safety Features: Glycerin-Free, Paraben-Free, Non-Toxic, Easy to clean | Features: Realistic aroma, Long-Lasting, Sensitive formula, Non staining |
When it comes to arousal, few things are as effective as the scent of a vagina. In fact, studies have shown that vaginal aromas can increase testosterone levels and sexual arousal in men. Pussy Juice lube is a product that captures that scent, allowing users to experience it whenever the mood takes them.
This is a lube that's suited for both solo and couple-play. What better way to boost your solo sessions than some vagina-scented lubricant? A dab of Pussy Juice on your fleshlight or stroker can enhance the realism and add variety to your solo routine.
Pussy Juice was made with high-grade ingredients to remain slick and slippery throughout, and while the consistency is slightly thinner than other lubes on this list, it manages to be an extremely long-lasting product. As always with water-based lubes, add a bit of water if it becomes tacky during sex, or use a touch more lubricant.

Swiss Navy Water-Based Flavored Edible Sex Lube
Price: $$$$ | Volume: 4 fl. oz |
Lubricant Base: Water-Based | Sex Toy Safe: Yes |
Flavors: Chocolate Bliss, Cooling Peppermint, Passion Fruit, Pina Colada, Salted Caramel, Strawberry Kiwi, Wild Cherry | Best For: Blowjobs, Rimming, Enhancing Vaginal moisture, Penetrative sex |
Safety Features: Sugar-Free, Hypoallergenic, Paraben-Free, Non-irritating formula | Features: Easy-to-use pump, Distinctive flavor profile, Long-lasting, Quick clean-up, Non-staining |
We think Swiss Navy Edible Lube is the best option on our list for blowjobs. Deliciously sweet, Swiss Navy comes in a variety of seven different flavors, all with their own unique traits. It's designed to mask unwanted tastes, which can be helpful for people who are sensitive to flavors during oral.
Each flavor of Swiss Navy is unique, and with seven options, there's sure to be something you find appealing. Swiss Navy collaborated with a Fortune 500 food company to create flavors that genuinely capture the tastes they're aiming for.
If you want to experiment with different tastes in the bedroom, Swiss Navy lube is a great jumping-off point.
We particularly like the cooling peppermint flavor - a tingly lube that feels amazing for both the giver and receiver. Swiss Navy has a gel-like consistency - when you dispense it, it stays in place, and then as you apply friction, it liquifies, becoming a slick and sensual lubricant. One pump goes a long way with this lube, as it's long-lasting and has been carefully formulated to enhance the body's natural lubrication. It's great for sustaining vaginal moisture, and it's also 100% paraben-free, so you can rest easy knowing your skin will be protected.
Swiss Navy lube is sugar-free, which keeps it from becoming sticky. Food-grade ingredients have been used to create intense flavors, and the lack of sugar makes the cleaning process all that easier, as there's less sticky residue, and it washes off with water. The gentler nature of sugar-free lubes helps reduce the risk of irritation and yeast infections in sensitive areas.
Although we think Swiss Navy is the best edible lube for blowjobs, it also works great for going down on your partner and rimming. It's an enticing and reliable lube that functions well during penetrative sex, plus its latex, condom, and sex toy friendly.
Results of Our Testing:
- The pump is excellent - incredibly easy to use to dispense as much lube as you need
- Testers loved the natural feel of it on their skin
- A little goes a long way with this lube
- Cleans incredibly easily and doesn't stain
- The flavor is strong enough to cover up unwanted tastes during blowjobs, cunnilingus, and rimming
- It dries up quicker during vigorous sex but is easily remedied with a dab of water or additional lube

How to choose the best edible lube
1. Decide what taste you want to go for
Taste is crucial when it comes to deciding on the best-flavored lube for you and your partner. You should choose a flavor that appeals to the person tasting it, otherwise, they'll find it harder to enjoy the experience. With so many flavored lubes out there, ultimately, it comes down to personal preference.
If your partner has a sweet tooth, then a candy-flavored lube will likely be your best bet
On the other hand, if they're more into natural flavors, then a fruit lube, or even a cum flavored lube, maybe more to their liking. Take the time to sit down and have a discussion with your partner if you want them to use the flavored lube on you; it's their taste buds, after all.
Whatever flavor you land on, as long as both of you have a say in the decision-making process, you'll be fostering intimacy. It'll make paving the way to flavorsome sex a lot more satisfying.
2. Consider ease of cleaning
When you're enjoying an edible lube, the last thing you want to be worrying about is the aftermath. Try and choose a lube that can be effortlessly and thoroughly cleaned and that won't stain your clothes or sheets.
Some lubes are specifically designed for a quick clean-up in order to let you enjoy the experience worry-free.
Luckily, the lubes included in our list are all super easy to clean - purely because they're all water-based. In general, water-based lubricants don't stain and wash away with warm water and soap.
More often than not, edible lubes will be water-based. However, there are a number of oil and silicone-based edible lubes out there that will be harder to clean up, so bear this in mind when making a decision.
3. Make sure it is compatible with your toys (if you use them)
If you're looking to purchase a flavored lubricant to use with any toys, you should definitely ensure your toy and lube are compatible. Understanding lube compatibility is crucial, as the use of an incompatible lube can lead to your toy slowly breaking down and becoming harmful to your health.
Let's run through the basics:
TYPE OF LUBRICANT |
DESCRIPTION |
Water-based Lubricants |
|
Hybrid Lubricants |
|
Silicone-based Lubricants |
|
Oil-based Lubricants |
|
4. Check ingredients and safety
You may be wondering: is flavored lube safe? The answer is yes, as long as you check the ingredients!
Not everyone is going to be compatible with every lube, and it's important you check the active ingredients before purchasing in order to prevent any allergens. Some ingredients common in edible lubes, like glycerin and parabens, have been known to irritate skin and cause yeast infections (in people prone to them). There are also other ingredients that you may not react well to.
If you're unsure, try a skin spot test - dab a spot of lube on your skin and leave it for a few minute.
Only you and your partner will know if you have sensitive skin or are prone to infections - stay aware of the ingredients to avoid complications. If these ingredients do indeed cause skin irritation, natural-flavored lubricants are a good backup - just make sure to check the ingredients.
If you're unsure, try a skin spot test - dab a spot of lube on your skin and leave it for a few minutes. If there's any irritation, don't use the lube.
5. Look at the size and packaging
The lubes on our list come in a variety of sizes, ranging from 2 oz to 8 oz. The size you'll want depends on how often you think you'll use the lube and whether you're still trying out new flavors or settling on a bedroom mainstay.
2 oz lubes are great for people experimenting with different flavors, as they're affordable and give you the option of buying a few different flavors to play with. Once you find that perfect flavor, a bigger bottle makes more sense.
Pump bottles are user-friendly, easy to control, and won't waste lube.
Packaging-wise, whether the lube is in a bottle with a pump, disc top cap, or flip cap may make all the difference in your decision. Pump bottles are user-friendly, easy to control, and won't waste lube. Flip-cap bottles are better for travel and are more secure. Disc top cap bottles require you to squeeze to dispense lube, and while they're efficient, it's easy to forget to close the lid, leading to accidental leaks.
Make sure to factor packing options into your decision to help find the best lube for your needs.
6. Figure out what you're going to use your lube for
While most lubes are versatile, some are designed with specific activities in mind. If you're on the hunt for an edible lube simply for oral, you'd be better off looking for one that focuses on flavor over slipperiness.
Some lubes will excel when used for oral but can falter when it comes to penetrative sex.
Some lubes will excel when used for oral but can falter when it comes to penetrative sex.
That's not to say they won't work; rather, some are better tailored for specific sexual acts.. If you're struggling to decide, try thinking about what you want to use the lube for, as it will allow you to narrow down your search. And if you're not sure, don't panic - there are plenty of excellent all-rounder edible lubes.
