Graze Box Review


My first Graze box arrived! I have them delivered on Tuesdays so this one came last Tuesday, as i ate one 'punnet' a day i have only just got round to reviewing it!


It comes with two cute little booklets and has a different pretty picture on the top of the inside of each box.





Inside my box was 'herby bread basket', 'tropic sundae', 'jaffa cake' and 'omega booster seeds'. I will talk about them in the order of my favourites. This little booklet has all the nutrition information which is really helpful :)


First up: 'Jaffa Cake' 

The 'jaffa cake' punnet included Belgian Dark Chocolate coins, orange raisins and roasted hazelnuts. The Belgian dark chocolate coins were very yummy, but i love all chocolate so this was no surprise. The orange raisins were amazing, they were so good, in my opinion, them alone tasted like jaffa cakes ahaa. The roasted hazelnuts were alright, but im not really that much of a fan of hazelnuts. Overall, it was really good, and actually tasted like jaffa cakes! ahaa 

Nutrition Information (per punnet)
208 Kcal
19g carbs
18.3g carbs (sugars)
3g protein
13.5g fats
3.5g fats (saturates)
2.6g fibre
11.5mg sodium

Next up the 'tropical sundae'


This included dried pineapple pieces, dried mango, dried banana coins (ascorbic acid and citric acid). The dried pineapple was very delicious and tasted great, the dried mango was a bit chewy but still tasted nice, the dried banana tasted quite interesting but was still yummy. Overall was very enjoyable and was one of your 5 a day so added bonus!

Nutritional information
77.6 Kcal
18.4g carbs
15.5g carbs (sugars
0.8g protein
0.3g fats
0.1g fats (saturates)
2g fibre
7.7mg sodium

My next favourite was the 'herby bread basket'


This included mini garlic croutons, mini basil breadsticks and oregano rice crackers. The mini basil breadsticks were the best think in the punnet and were very yummy, the mini garlic croutons were also very nice and the oregano rice crackers were alright but weren't that great in my opinion. Overall, was satisfying and with only 83 calories per punnet, can't really complain ahaa.

Nutritional information
83.1Kcal
10.5g carbs
0.9g carbs (saturates)
1,6g protein
5.2g fats
1.8g fats (saturates)
0.5g fibre

Finally, the 'omega booster seeds'


 The omega booster seeds included sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds and golden linseeds. As i am not an expert on seeds and they were all mixed together i couldn't really tell the difference between them (my bad ahaa). If you're like me and not really a fan of seeds i would suggest going in with an open mind as they weren't as bad as i expected, they were actually quite nice, just a little dry. However, they actually have lots of healthy benefits, they include: Omega 3, Copper, Vitamins B1, B6, B9 & E, Magnesium and Zinc.

Nutritional information

5.6g carbs
0.7g carbs (saturated)

Overall, i'm really glad I ordered this and will continue to order them each week. Can't wait to see what i get in this week!
Go to Graze to get more information, but i would recommend it. If you want to try it for free (come on it's free food ahaa) I got a 'feed your friends code' which you can use: WKD4XKTD I will keep the code at the side of my blog so if you ever want to use it just look over there >>> 

Hope you found this interesting or enjoyed it or something ahaa 
Let me know if you use the code or if you get graze boxes, let me know if you like them :)

  6. Hi tried them last year as i had a free trial, they were amazing but often i ended up throwing them away as i wouldn't eat them all. I say to anyone who want to be healthy in your diet, try them as they will really help you.
