201 Shares

Hey ya’ll! I have been “sweet treat” tasting, believe it or not? Who me?? Pshaww…right!?

I love taste testing new twists on treats and sweets and sharing my experiences with you. And, if you are any kind of a sweets connoisseur , you should really try these Treatsie artisan sweets sampler boxes.

Each box includes up to $25 of gourmet sweets from 3 to 4 small, confections from independent vendors from all over the country, which change each month according to the season and are delivered right to your doorstep. Meaning you will get more chocolate in the cooler months. You know how I am about my chocolate! But when it comes down to it, as long as I’m getting some kind of sugar buzz here and there, I will forgive. 🙂 Thank you Treatsie!

Oh, and I will be receiving 2 more Treatsie Boxes in September and October that I will be sharing with you as series to this post, what I received and my honest reviews and guess what? We will be getting chocolate!! Happy, Happy Day!! So, let me share with you what I got for May!

Yay! Here’s how the cute little box arrives!

Opening….(Comes with a card with the description of treats on back side (descriptions added below with pictures) of the ‘Gimme Some Sugar’ post card and the treats are wrapped in pretty, mint colored tissue paper. Classy!)

Opened! *Ta-Daaaaaa!*

Here’s what was inside…until you know, I went into DEVOUR Mode!

Starting with….

Izard Chocolate Original Caramels

Super soft, buttery bites shine with classic caramel flavor and visable vanilla bean specks.

What did I think? Yum!! They are every bit the description above and addicting as heck. Melt in your mouth, soft, gooey caramel! Heavenly for sure!

Next…

Grey Ghost Bakery Chocolate Expresso Cookies

Sophisticated, rich and mellow. Decadent chocolate with a kiss of expresso.

Grey Ghost Bakery Cinnamon Pecan Cookies

A new take on a southern tradition-Buttery cookies rolled in toasted pecans and cinnamon for a delicious crunch.

What did I think? If you are tempted by soft, small, and dainty cookies, these cookies are for you. They weren’t packed with tons of flavor like I was expecting from the descriptions, but it was still fun taste testing. (Of course, I’m not going to turn down a cookie, but I’m completely spoiled by home-made cookies with some girth to them, which explains why I have these and many more on the blog.)

And lastly…

Raley’s Confectionary – Acid Drops Hard Candy

An old-fashioned sour candy with plenty of flavor. Assortment contains green apple, orange, cherry and raspberry.

What did I think? These little zingers are really good. Reminds me of Jolly Ranchers only smaller, but not as intense, but very flavorful. Thumbs up!

Overall, I have to say I enjoyed my Treatsie Box. I realize, there are going to be some things that I might love and you might not or visa versa. I can’t wait to see what September’s box contains when it arrives with some more varieties of treats to try, which will include more chocolate! Yessss! If you want the “connoisseur” experience or looking for a unique gift for a birthday, thank you or holiday treat, sign up before the 15th to receive this month’s box. If you sign up after the 15th, you’ll receive next month’s box.

The plans have monthly, quarterly and annual plans you can choose from.
