It's time to get stuck into another GRAZE Box!



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 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.
- High in fibre
- Source of copper 
- Made with real Belgian chocolate

- Suitable for vegetarians
This snack pot smells gorgeous as usual, I really love the coconut flakes as well as the sweetness of the cranberries and the chocolate drops are just divine, they just melt on the tongue. The sweetness of the cranberries work really well with the coconut flakes and the chocolate drops. Always an 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 not a fan of pumpkin seeds and I feel no different with the pumpkin seeds in this snack pot. I love the almonds and the hickory smoked almonds, the flavours are really nice. I absolutely love the chilli broad beans, there is just enough flavour without giving them too much of a kick. All the flavours together work really well and make it a very moreish savoury snack.


Next up we have CHEDDAR & RED ONION VEG CRUNCHERS, this snack pot contains cheese & onion pitta bites, cheese & onion chickpeas, salted corn and Gouda puffs.
The Benefits - This snack pot uses the power of vegetables to give you a source of protein which contributes to the maintenance of your muscles and bones, it's also only 97 calories per portion.
- High in fibre
- Source of protein
- Under 100 calories
- Suitable for vegetarians
I loved the pitta bites, I thought they were gorgeous. I thought the chickpeas and salted corn was okay but I absolutely loved the Gouda puffs. I really enjoyed this snack pot and I'd happily eat this snack pot over a bag of cheese and onion crisps any and everyday.


Last up we have an ORIGINAL PROTEIN FLAPJACK, this snack pot contains an original protein flapjack.
The Benefits - All GRAZE's flapjacks are baked in small batches, meaning the whole rolled oats keep all their natural goodness, making their flapjacks a source of fibre and manganese, which are nutrients that support the immune system and protects cells from oxidative stress. The linseeds, sunflower seeds and pumpkin seeds which are added to the mixture makes this flapjack a powerhouse of essential minerals, fibre and protein.
Even though there are no added flavours with this flapjack and is pretty much a plain flapjack, it's full of flavour and it's another moreish GRAZE flapjack.

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 to review another of my Graze box'.



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 CHOCOLATE PRETZEL DIPPERS, this snack pot contains cocoa hazelnut dip and lightly salted pretzel sticks.
The Benefits - The pretzel sticks are baked and then lightly salted and the cocoa hazelnut dip is made with real hazelnuts and blended with cocoa and milk.
- Source of fibre
- Less than 150 calories
- Made with real hazelnuts
- Suitable for Vegetarians
The pretzel sticks are really nice just as a snack on it's own, the dip tasted a little different to the chocolate dips that I'm used to but it did taste really nice. The pretzel sticks and hazelnut dip work really well together and are really nice. What I love about this snack pot is that you get a mixture of a sweet and salty taste, for me also there was just the right amount of the chocolate dip. I would happily have this as a little snack.


Next up 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 cake smells absolutely gorgeous and lemony, the tastes of the cake and tea really work together for a perfect relaxing snack. The cake is really soft and moist and taste gorgeous, I'd definitely want this recipe to recreate it at home.


Next up we have RHUBARB & PEAR COMPOTE, this snack pot contains rhubarb slices, pear and cranberries.
The Benefits - This snack pot ticks off one of your five a day and is better than heading to the sweet jar to snack on something sweet and chewy and is made with real fruit.
- High in fibre
- Less than 150 calories
- Made with real fruit
- Suitable for vegans
The cranberries are really nice as well as the rhubarb, the rhubarb was a little tough but it was enjoyable all the same. I wasn't a fan of the texture of the pear but the taste wasn't impacted on because of the texture, it did still taste nice. I would gladly snack on this snack pot instead of some sweets.


Lastly 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
The combination of all the ingredients were really nice, I'm not a fan of the pumpkin seeds but with all the other flavours, they were more enjoyable to eat. I can see why it was voted to be a limited edition snack pot.

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.

I'm no longer doing a review on every box I get as I'll just end up repeating myself so only reviewing boxes where I get snacks I haven't tired or reviewed yet, in cases like this one where I get snacks I have already had before with a snack I haven't I will do an updated review.

See you soon!

It's time for a review of my 2nd Graze box since returning to my subscription, lets get stuck in!




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 BOSTON BAGUETTES, this snack pot contains BBQ relish and Tomato baguettes.
The Benefits - The mini baguettes are baked and not fried and seasoned with tangy tomato and aromatic oregano. The BBQ sauce is made with fresh tomatoes and mixed with herbs and spices such as coriander, cardamom and cumin, with a dash of balsamic and a twist of black pepper to give it a smoky twist. A perfect alternative to crisps.
- Less than 100 calories
- Suitable for vegetarians
- A crunchy and light alternative to crisps.
I really liked the BBQ sauce it was sweet but had that smoky tang to it, I wasn't a fan of the relish on it's own but it worked really nice with the tomato baguettes, the baguettes on their own were nice and crunchy.


Next we have VITAMIN E DEFENCE, this snack contains cranberries, Chilean flame raisins, roasted hazelnuts and redskin peanuts.
The Benefits - the roasted hazelnuts and the redskin peanuts make it a snack rich in manganese, a source of vitamin E and copper to help your cells from oxidative stress, the fruit also gives a source of fibre.
- High in manganese
- Source of vitamin E and copper
- High in fibre
- Suitable for vegetarians
I loved the cranberries and raisins, I'm a fan of raisins anyway. I didn't really like the redskin peanuts but I really like hazelnuts so that made it tastier. I wasn't really a fan of all the ingredients together but in 1 taste but the hazelnuts were nice alone and the cranberries and raisins together were really nice.


Next 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
The combination of all the ingredients were really nice, I'm not a fan of the pumpkin seeds but with all the other flavours, they were more enjoyable to eat. I can see why it was voted to be a limited edition snack pot.


Lastly 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
- Suitable for vegetarians
I'm a big fan of beetroot so I was excited to see that this was a beetroot brownie and while this did taste really nice, I was gutted that I could taste more chocolate than beetroot. It was really soft and crumbly but personally for me I like when brownies are a little more chewy, but this has made me want to make my own batch of beetroot brownies.

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. Each box is £3.99, with your 1st box being half price on subscription, You can choose between having your personalised box delivered through your letterbox every week or fortnightly with also the choice of being able to skip a box or take a holiday if you're away when you box is due.
