GIFTED
It’s beginning to taste a lot like Christmas….well taste like Christmas.
@cakesandcrumbsbykim contacted me on Instagram and asked if I would like to try her cakes, what I didn’t know till later is that she would be gifting me two boxes.
The first is the Christmas Eve box and the second was the Christmas Day box.⠀⠀
I started with the Christmas Eve box, as it made sense too.⠀⠀
Box Contents :
- Cookies for Santa⠀
- Reindeer Food (plus message)⠀
- Candy Cane cup for hot chocolate⠀
- Chocolate Christmas Tree Cupcake⠀
- Vanilla Snowman Cupcake⠀
- Candy Cane Marshmallow Cups⠀
Firstly let me say WOW I was MEGA impressed at the display, the paper, the items everything looked very very professional!⠀
Everything was very colourful, and due to the paper colour it made every item stand out more and create a great look.
Now it was time to see if they tasted as good as they looked.
Cookies for Santa
First thing I noticed was visually they looked super festive, and very much eye candy…time for a taste. ⠀
I have a sweet tooth and these instantly hit the spot, so much so I actually had two one right after the other hehe ⠀
The flavour and texture was really good and perfect for all you sweet tooth followers :)⠀
Oh and yeah I am sure Santa would love to nibble on these.
Candy Cane Marshmallow Cups
How cute are these, with the wee candy cane on top?
These were very cute, and I loved the taste the base was like a biscuit which worked very well with the marshmallow ⠀
These would be perfect with a nice hot chocolate or coffee
Chocolate Christmas Tree Cupcake
This cupcake was visually really nice, I loved the colour and the decorations…I know what your thinking “not really the right word for a cupcake” but hey its a Christmas Tree cupcake so it works :p
I didn’t really want to bite into this as I liked how it looked….but I had to.
The base was lovely and soft and the top mmm and both worked really well.
I could have easily had two of these
Vanilla Snowman Cupcake
How cute does this wee guy look, part of me didn’t want to eat him but the other part wanted to see how he tasted.
This guy was really nice, the base was nice and soft buttery and the topping very creamy and tasty.
Just like everything in this box, I could have easily had more
Reindeer Food⠀
This is a lovely idea, plus the little message that comes along with it…a very very nice touch
I am sure kids and big kids will love reading the message, and sprinkling this outside.⠀
Overall :
Note : Just because this was gifted, that has not influenced my thoughts in any way. The above is a 100% honest review of the Christmas Eve Box.
Let me start by saying a big thanks to @cakesandcrumbsbykim for gifting me these boxes, they were a delight to look at and an even bigger delight to eat.
From the first bite to the last, everything tasted amazing and I am not just saying that. Everything was baked with perfection, the presentation was perfect and these boxes would be amazing for young and old to lift their spirits up or a nice wee gift.
Please do visit @cakesandcrumbsbykim Instagram profile, follow and place a wee order I promise you that you will love these boxes.
