Each box comes with 4 healthy portioned snacks, that is picked by the Graze team based on your preferences when you subscribe, you also get a little info card that tells you what's in each of your snack pots.



First up we have CHOCCY WONDERS - BANANA & PEANUT, this snack pot contains dark chocolate, banana coins, cocoa dusted almonds and baked salted peanuts.
The Benefits - This snack pot is high in fibre and is reduced in sugar, due to the use of naturally sweet chicory root fibre. It also doesn't have any artificial sweeteners.
- High in fibre
- 75% less sugar than average dark chocolate
Suitable for vegetarians
The banana coins were not for me, for me they had an odd taste, they're often a hit or miss with me.
The almonds were really nice, the cocoa added an extra something to them.
I don't normally like dark chocolate, as I often find the taste too string and bitter, but this was really nice and I was able to eat and enjoy it.
I thought the peanuts were nice but they weren't anything special.


Next up we have BANANA PROTEIN FLAPJACK, this snack pot contains banana protein flapjack.
The Benefits - All of Graze's flapjacks are baked in small batches, the whole rolled oats keep their natural goodness, making this snack pot a source of fibre and manganese, a nutrient which supports the immune system and protects cells from oxidative stress. Added to this recipe is protein crispies which are made from soy protein, tapioca starch and a pinch of salt, which are then puffed up like rice crispies.
- Source of fibre
- Source of protein
- Made with whole oats
- Suitable for vegans and vegetarians
I love this flapjack, it's always really nice.
It was really soft and chewy, which is what I love from a flapjack.
I really enjoyed it, and I always enjoy it when it appears in one of my Graze boxes.


Next we have LEMON & POPPY SEED CAKE WITH AN AFTERNOON INFUSIONthis snack pot contains lemon & poppy seed cake and an afternoon tea infusion tea bag.
The Benefits - To make the lemon & poppy cake butter is replaced with rapeseed oil, this is because rapeseed oil only contains 7% saturated fat compared to butter which has 51% fat, it's also a good source for omega 3 and omega 6.
- High in fibre
- No artificial colours, flavours or preservatives
- 76 calories per portion
- Suitable for vegetarians
This cake was really nice and tasty.
The tea was really nice too.
The tea & cake work really well together and compliment one another too.


Lastly we have a CHERRY BAKEWELL FIBRE FLAPJACK, this snack pot contains a cherry bakewell fibre flapjack.
The Benefits - All of Grazes flapjacks are baked in small batches, so the whole rolled oats keep their natural goodness, making this flapjack a source of fibre and manganese, a nutrient which supports an energy-yielding metabolism and protects cells from oxidative stress. Each flapjack has 50% less sugar than the average cereal bar.
- High in fibre
- High in manganese
- Made with whole oats
- No artificial colours, flavours or preservatives
- No artificial sweeteners
- Suitable for vegetarians
This flapjack smells gorgeous, you could really smell the cherries.
It tastes divine, it really reminds me of Cherry Bakewells, you can really taste the cherries and almonds.
It was really soft and chewy.
It's become one of my favourite Graze flapjacks.

Each box comes with 4 healthy portioned snacks, that is picked by the Graze team based on your preferences when you subscribe, you also get a little info card that tells you whats in each of your snack pots.



First up we have PUNCHY CHILLI AND LIME NUTTY PROTEIN POWER, this snack pot contains chilli and lime flavoured cashews, baked salted peanuts and almonds.
The Benefits - This little snack pot is a source of plant protein for healthy muscle and bones, as well as vitamin E and essential minerals, like phosphorus, magnesium, copper and manganese. Giving you a snack that also protects cells from stress and helps metabolise energy.
- Source of protein
- High in fibre
- Mild kick
- Suitable for vegans
I thought the flavours were a little weird for me, but I liked the almonds I thought they were nice, I really liked the baked salted peanuts, and thought that there was a nice chilli kick to the cashews. Overall I think this is a nice savoury snack pot.


Next we have SWEET AND SALTY CHOCOLATE CURIOSITIES, this snack pot contains almonds, salted coated peas, dark chocolate salted edamame beans and baked salted peanuts.
The Benefits - This snack pot gives you protein from the beans and nuts as well as fibre from the veg, meaning you can indulge on the dark chocolate while gaining benefits.
- High in fibre
- Source of protein
- Source of vitamin E
- Suitable for vegetarians
Sadly this is a snack pot that if I saw it on the shelves in a store, I wouldn't be grabbing it to snack on. Even though I thought it was enjoyable, I just couldn't finish it. I thought the almonds were nice, and I really liked the salted coated peas, which I didn't think I would, as well as really enjoying the baked salted peanuts. I'm not really a fan of dark chocolate or edamame beans, but I thought they worked really well together, I just found the dark chocolate a little overpowering for my taste buds.


Next we have AMARETTI AND ALMOND CHOCOLATE CURIOSITIES, this snack pot contains blanched almonds, cocoa dusted almonds, dark chocolate roasted chickpeas and amaretti drops.
The Benefits - this snack pot gives you protein from all the nuts as well as protein from all the veg, meaning you can also indulge on the chocolate while gaining benefits.
- High in fibre
- Source of protein
- Source of vitamin E
- Suitable for vegetarians
I thought this snack pot smelt gorgeous, I liked the blanched almonds, which is something I don't often like, I really liked the dark chocolate roasted chickpeas, they were just like chocolate coated biscuits, the dark chocolate was also just right for me. I loved the amaretti drops, which I always do, I just love getting these in my snack pots. Sadly though I wasn't a fan of the cocoa dusted almonds, the cocoa powder was too overpowering for me.


Lastly we have a LEMON & POPPY CAKE WITH AN AFTERNOON INFUSION, this snack pot contains lemon & poppy cake and and afternoon tea infusion.
The Benefits - To make the lemon & poppy cake butter is replaced with rapeseed oil, this is because rapeseed oil only contains 7% saturated fat compared to butter which has 51% fat, it's also a good source for omega 3 and omega 6.
- 89 calories
- Suitable for vegetarians
This whole snack pot smells absolutely gorgeous, I couldn't wait to get stuck into the cake. The cake is mouthwatering, it's soft and full of flavour and works really well with the tea. This snack pot together is a perfect reason to stop whatever you're doing and have an afternoon break and snack.

Now it's time to get into the business side of the Graze box, each box comes with 4 snack pots with snacks had selected just for you from your preferences you give the Graze team from over 100 choices.

It's time for my first Graze Box post of 2019.



Each box comes with 4 healthy portioned snacks, that is picked by the Graze team based on your preferences when you subscribe, you also get a little info card that tells you whats in each of your snack pots.


First up we have WHITE CHOCOLATE BLUEBERRY BAGEL DIP, this snack pot contains white chocolate dip and wholemeal wild blueberry toasts.
The Benefits - All of GRAZE's dips are portioned perfectly, so you don't over indulge, the snack pot is 130 calories with the bonus of also being a source of fibre.
- Source of fibre
- Under 150 calories
- Suitable for vegetarians
I always really enjoy this snack pot, it smells really nice. I absolutely love the blueberry toasts, they were nice and sweet, as well as having a nice crunch. The white chocolate dip is delicious and creamy, the chocolate dip also works really well with the blueberry toasts, it's a very enjoyable snack pot.


Next up we have SMOKIN' PROTEIN KICK, this snack contains chili lemon broad beans, almonds, hickory smoked almonds and roasted pumpkin seeds.
The Benefits - I couldn't find this snack pot on the graze website for a rundown of the full benefits.
- High in vitamins and minerals
- 8 g of natural protein
- Suitable for vegetarians
I'm always half and half with this snack pot as I don't link the pumpkin seeds and always leave them, on the other hand, the snack pot does smell nice and I love the almonds and chilli lemon broad beans. The broad beans and the almonds work really well together and are the reason I keep this snack pot on my like list on the Graze website.


Next we have ALL DAY ENERGISER, this snack pot contains pear, walnuts and cherries.
The Benefits - This is a healthier alternative to sweets, and gives a light source of fibre. This snack pot is also a source of Copper and manganese, which are nutrients needed for energy metabolism and which also work together to support the immune system and protect your cells from oxidative stress.
- High of fibre
- Source of copper
- Source of manganese
- Less than 150 calories
- Suitable for vegans
I personally didn't think the snack pot smelt very appetising  and I wasn't a fan of the walnuts, they're really not for me. Thankfully I really enjoyed the pears and cherries, they were a perfect combination of a sweet and tart snack pot and work really well together.


Lastly we have a LEMON & POPPY CAKE WITH AN AFTERNOON INFUSION, this snack pot contains lemon & poppy cake and and afternoon tea infusion.
The Benefits - To make the lemon & poppy cake butter is replaced with rapeseed oil, this is because rapeseed oil only contains 7% saturated fat compared to butter which has 51% fat, it's also a good source for omega 3 and omega 6.
- 89 calories
- Suitable for vegetarians
I always love opening up this snack pot because I love the lemon citrus smell. It's still remains to be one of my favourite snack pots, I could eat it all day, everyday, the cake itself is soft and moist, and I always enjoy it with the tea, it's the perfect afternoon snack.

Now it's time to get into the business side of the Graze box, each box comes with 4 snack pots with snacks had selected just for you from your preferences you give the Graze team from over 100 choices.

It's time for another Graze review.



Each box comes with 4 healthy portioned snacks, that is picked by the Graze team based on your preferences when you subscribe, you also get a little info card that tells you whats in each of your snack pots.


First up we have VITAMIN E DEFENCE, this snack contains cranberries, Chilean flame raisins, roasted hazelnuts and redskin peanuts.

- High in manganese

I actually liked this a lot more than I did than the first time I tried it, I thought the flavours really worked well together this time round. All the flavours were nice together as well as a part, I thought the flavour and texture combinations were really nice.


Next we have COOKIES & CREAM, this snack pot contains sunflower seeds, mini cocoa cookies, Belgian white chocolate buttons and Cornish cocoa fudge.
The Benefits - the sunflower seeds are the nutritional core for this snack, they are high in vitamin E, which helps protect your cells from stress, as well as a source of vitamin B1 and copper which work together to support your metabolism and immune system.

The cookies were very moreish and they tasted really nice and had a nice crunch to them, I wasn't really a fan of the fudge which is surprising as I normally love fudge. I was also surprised that I didn't mind the sunflower seeds too much as I normally don't like them, I really enjoyed them this time round. The chocolate buttons were divine, and my favourite part of the snack pot. Altogether the flavours and textures worked really well together.


Next up we have THE CHEESE BOARD, this snack pot contains cheddar cheese bruschetta, cheese flavoured almonds, cheese flavoured cashews and Gouda puffs.
The Benefits - This snack pit uses nuts to give you a source of protein for healthy muscles and bones.

This snack pot smelt really nice, I loved all the individual flavours, this snack pot worked really well together as well as eating it all individually. I loved all the different textures, this snack pot is a definite keeper.


Lastly we have a LEMON & POPPY CAKE WITH AN AFTERNOON INFUSION, this snack pot contains lemon & poppy cake and and afternoon tea infusion.
The Benefits - To make the lemon & poppy cake butter is replaced with rapeseed oil, this is because rapeseed oil only contains 7% saturated fat compared to butter which has 51% fat, it's also a good source for omega 3 and omega 6.

This is one of my Graze snack pot favourites, I love the lemon flavour and the cake is very moreish. I also love the afternoon infusion tea and think it compliments and goes with the cake very well.
