First up we have COCO PARADISE, this snack pot contains Belgian milk chocolate drops, cranberries and coconut flakes.
The Benefits - This snack pot is high in fibre and a delicious source of copper, which is needed for energy metabolism and supports the immune system and protects cells from oxidative stress.

I normally really like this snack pot, but this time round I wasn't really fond of the coconut flakes as I have been before, I still enjoyed the cranberries and the chocolate drops were really nice and very moreish.
Next up we have NOT TOO SPICY VEGGIE PROTEIN, this snack pot contains black beans, wild rice sticks, chilli corn and carrot crisps.
The benefits - this snack pot is high in fibre and is only 140 calories per punnet, the carrot crisps are made with innovative microwave vacuum technology, dehydrating fresh carrots slices to capture their natural sweetness, with no added sugar, salt or oil. It's also a source of plant protein which helps your body build muscle.

I'm always happy to keep trying snack pots like this one, as my mind can change each time I have it, this time though I was 50/50. I wasn't really a fan of the black beans, but they were edible, even if I left them. I wasn't really fussed with the wild rice sticks either as this time round they seemed a little bland for me. Now the positives, I really liked the carrot crisps, they had a really nice crunch and added a little sweetness to the snack pot. I absolutely loved the chilli corn, the tangy kick worked really well with the sweetness of the carrot crisps.
Next up we have THE GRAZE BROWNIE, this snack pot contains a beetroot brownie.
The Benefits - this brownie is made without butter and wheat flour and replaced with ground almonds and beetroot, making the brownie rich and moist. Rapeseed oil is also used which only contains 7% saturated fat, with butter having 51%m the rapeseed oil is also a good source of omega 3 and omega 6.
- Only 110 calories
- Source of fibre
- Contains no butter or wheat flour

I love the smell of this brownie, it smells so good and chocolaty, the brownie was really soft and spongy, and more importantly it was very moreish, I'd happily bake this myself to share with others.
Lastly we have CRACKLING BLACK PEPPER NUTS, this snack pot contains redskin peanuts, black pepper cashews, unsalted roasted cashews and black pepper almonds.
The Benefits - Peanuts have a lot to offer and perfect to include as part of a balanced diet, they contain manganese and phosphorus, which both are needed for healthy bones and energy levels, they also contain magnesium for brain health and electrolyte balance, they're also rich in dietary fibre, natural protein and amino acids. Cashews also have plenty of essential minerals and nutrients. They're a source of manganese, magnesium and copper, which helps with energy production and the maintenance of healthy bones. Cashews also contain zinc which helps support the immune system and keep hair, skin and nails looking their best.

I wasn't a fan of the redskin peanuts, they weren't really for me, I thought the black pepper almonds were a little bland for me personally, but I loved the unsalted and black pepper cashews, the black pepper worked really well with the cashews. This is my first time with this snack pot, so I'll see if my mind changes when I receive this snack pot again.
