October Degustabox UK Review



Its that fantastic time of the month again...... Degustabox time!! We were so excited to receive the box as always, I just love the surprise of what you are getting. The delivery text was successfully received which is brilliant as it gave us a two hour time frame for delivery..... always good when planning around little ones! My wife will very soon have an unboxing video up on her personal YouTube channel if any of you would like to see that.

A Degustabox can be yours for just £12.99 a month incl delivery and you can buy for yourself or as a gift for someone! So without further ado let me talk you through this months amazing box and its contents.

This months absolute favourite has to be the Brioche rolls, the little ones wanted to get them open before we had even finished unboxing (they are a firm favourite and a big hit in our house).


Brioche Pasquier Pain Au Lait with Choc Chips RRP £1.60

They are a favourite in our house anyway but it has to be said they are super tasty. The recipe is the same as the Pain Au Lait but with chocolate chips and I have to say they just take so soft and yummy. Some chocolate brioche rolls can be a little dry but these are not, they are amazing.


Brioche Pasquier Sliced Brioche Loaf RRP £1.69

This loaf was so convenient as its sliced and it was scrumptious as well. Its made using the same ingredients as the rolls and again it was so soft and tasty. Fabulous product for a sandwich, toast or even part of a recipe.


Kent's Kitchen Tikka Massala Meal Kit RRP £2.50

This is such a genious idea! Instead of using a jar sauce you add some fresh ingredients to this and voila a healthy restaurant quality meal that you can be proud of. I also think this would be a great product to keep in the cupboard for those days you don't quite know what you want and don't want to spend ages in the kitchen. These are ready in just 20 minutes and come in five different flavours.


Solo Marshmallow Creme RRP £1.99

This product is a spreadable marshmallow which can be used either on toast, in a recipe or even straight out of the tub! My wife was very excited about this product as she loves to bake and so can't wait to find a recipe to use it with! Solo Marshmallow is available at americansoda.co.uk and comes in toasted or orignal flavours.


Blue Dragon Sweet Chilli Sauce RRP £1.39

This product is advertised as 'Britain's Best Tasting Sweet Chilli Sauce' and I have to say I agree. We have tried it drizzled over a meal to give it some flavour and also in a recipe and it was so good!!


Bear Alphabites

These were a sample present and I fear my children will be fighting over who gets to have them for breakfast!! We had the big box in our June Degustabox and they absolutely loved them. They were a huge hit and as they have no nasty things added and are made with five tasty grains they are super good for young tummys!!


Special K Cracker Crisps RRP £1.29

These were really tasty and you wouldn't be able to guess they were 60% less fat than an average packet of crisps. They come in four flavours: Sea salt & Balsamic Vinegar, Sour Cream & Onion, Sweet Chilli and Barbecue. We received the Barbecue ones to review and they did not disappoint and happily the whole family enjoyed them so it is a good one for us to share.


Jelly Belly Jelly Beans RRP £2.50
We love Jelly Beans with over 100 true-to-life flavours who wouldn't? We received the Sour ones to sample and it's not something we would have bought as we'd have gone for the safe 'normal' flavours but they were amazing!! We had great fun tasting them and pulling faces. So much fun over one packet of Jelly Belly Jelly Beans!


Get Buzzing bar RRP £1.30

This is a 100% natural flapjack bar which makes a great tasty healthy snack. It was really yummy and is brilliant for slow release energy!! If you head over to www.getbuzzing.co.uk to see the new range you can get 10% off your first order with the discount code 'newbuzz10'. Enjoy guys!


Enhance Drinks RRP £2.49

This genious little pot is perfect for handbags, saving space in your cupboard and it super cute! You just add one quick squeeze to water to transform the water into a lovely fruity drink with natural flavour. It is made with real fruit juice and no added sugar which is a must for children in my eyes.


Dr Oetker Fine Dark Cocoa Powder RRP £1.89
Dr Oetker Premium 90% Extra Dark Chocolate RRP £2.49

We haven't used these yet but as I mentioned earlier my wife is super excited to get baking and we are a big fan of Dr Oetker products and can't wait to use them. The cocoa powder is specifically created for home baking and is pre packed into handy pre measured 25g sachets! The chocolate is brilliant for melting/breaking into chunks for chocolate recipes that will give you a rich, delicious flavour.


Bear Paws Fruit Snack RRP £0.55

This product went down amazing well with my three children, it is a pure fruit snack with no added sugar or any other nonsense. The little pieces are baked into paw prints and were really tasty. Definitely something we would buy again!!
