This month I received more items than usual. This is because some of the boxes differ slightly. Some will contain alcohol and others won’t. Therefore if you sign up for a box you will usually receive between 10-15 items monthly but mine this month has more as its a combination of all the available products.
“This month’s products”
May box bought with it, a lovely variety of sweet, savoury, cupboard items and drinks too. Degustabox is always full of variety.
- “Product of the month” Brioche Pasquier – This is a brand we are very familiar with. Brioche do a range of French style breakfast treats and this time it’s “all butter croissants”. We love these warmed up in the microwave and they are lovely alone or with a dollop of chocolate spread. £1.80.
- Next to the Brioche are “Mrs Crimbles classic Madeleine’s. These are gluten free treat size cakes.
- Cranes alcoholic drink – Cranes is not something I have heard of before. I am not a big drinker of alcohol but this is quite nice and refreshing. Especially served ice cold on a warm day. It is made with crushed cranberries so fairly healthy too. It is also low in calories, high in natural juices and comes in three flavours. £1.90.
- Kallo – We all really like these coated rice cakes. They are big and full of yummy flavour, in this instance it is yoghurt coated rice cakes and milk chocolate corn cakes. £1.29/£1.69.
- Wonderful company – It’s almonds and nuts in these little packets all sun-ripened in California orchards. They come in small snack size packs, perfect for on the go snacking. £0.90
- Get Fruity – A combination of fruit and oats in a bar. The bright fruity packaging will possibly appeal to children. It’s all natural stuff and a good alternative to less healthy bars. £0.90.
- Pechkeks fortune cookies – I actually came across these a few weeks back at the Blog on MSI conference. I did wonder if it was some sort of joke shop novelty trick food. What you have are black fortune cookies but instead of a nice message of luck or wisdom inside; It will more likely be something a little crude or humorous. £1.00.
- Pomegreat – Another product made from fruit grown in California orchards. A very sweet tasting, refreshing carton of juice. £1.49.
- Garofalo pasta – From Italian pasta makers Garofalo. Corkscrew shaped pasta made with quality drum wheat. Much softer and better tasting than ordinary supermarket shelf stuff. £1.99.
- Beloved dates – I was a bit skeptical about this one as I am not a lover of dates at all. This however is date nectar. It is made from 100% pure dates but it has a sweet caramel taste and is more like syrup than eating dates. It can also be used as a alternative to sugar or honey and suitable for vegans too. £3.50
- Jack Daniels – Not quite the drink itself but a Tennesee barbecue honey glaze. It has mild flavours of the Jack Daniels drink and hints of honey. Good for dipping, glazing and barbecues. £1.99.
And that concludes my May Degustabox reveal which I really enjoyed opening this month.
