Amazon Prime Surprise Sweets Box Review – March 2017

Love your website.

I did not get the whoopies in my Amazon box, so I just ordered them. They gave me a link for $25.00 off order Cape May Whoopies. link: goldbely.com/?dc=icedcoffee1201 or Referral code: icedcoffee120. I don’t know if it will work. Good luck!

I finally got around to setting up my button (we were a little nervous about all the settings the app wanted access to, so we eventually installed it using an old, factory reset phone) and I’ve already ordered two boxes. So far, I’ve fallen in love with the Nutwhats from my first box, and also enjoyed the cookies a whole lot. We’ve only tried the taffy and brigaderios from box 2, and already love the latter. They’re delicious!

Personally, I’m a little confused by people who dislike their boxes – it seems that they just don’t like sweets to me. We all have preferences, of course, but if you refuse to eat any dark chocolate, why are you buying a mystery box of boutique sweets? I have a few flavor combos I don’t like as much as others, but I’m open to trying all different ingredients and recipes. I think the box works well if you’re in the same category. So far, my favorites (the Nutwhats and brigaderios) are unique treats that I probably wouldn’t have tried otherwise since I have no clue where to get them. The value isn’t amazing, but they are from small companies and so I’m not expecting crazy discounts.

I feel bad for people still on the waitlist, though. It just seems random, but you’ll get off eventually (and who knows, you might not like it anyway lol).

I was so excited to order my first box after I saw this review. I got mine today and it was a complete miss. It had biscotti (which are mostly all broken to bits), the salt water taffy (that was featured in the 2014 Popsugar Resort box (no one in my house can eat that either… braces, teeth stuff), and 2 other dark chocolate items (husband might eat it, but he’s the only one that will eat dark chocolate in my house). So, nothing like MSA’s box that had such a nice variety of items.

I’m not trying to be too picky – my feeling is if I can eat at least one item, I’m ok with it. But, I figure if I can’t eat a single item in the box, then it’s a no go for me. I did call Amazon’s Surprise Sweet customer service number to see if I could return the box and they said that they won’t take it back (due to health concerns from returning food items), but they did credit my account, so that was really nice.

I asked what would I should do if this happened again, and she said just call us back if I’m not happy and they will refund me. I hit my Dash button again, so hopefully the new box will be better. If not, then I’m guessing this box isn’t for me or my family. 🙂

I’m not sure how they pull people off the wait list, is it by how much you spend as a Prime member? I go through a few grand a month in Amazon purchases and was only on the wait list for this for ONE day! Which I AM NOT complaining about but I feel that it should be first come first served.

Getting this dash is the worst decision I’ve ever made! The boxes are so great I can’t stop clicking it. I need to hide it. But I loved almost every single item I’ve gotten (or I gifted them to very happy friends) and I just want to see what else they have to send.

i’ve only had one box so far. i also got the whoopie pie in mine and oh. em. gee!!! that thing is frigging divine! i didn’t think it would be so yummy! i wish the entire box was all whoopie pies!

the rest of the box didn’t blow me away. some kind of dark chocolate mint, flavored popcorn, toffee and the bonus piece of chocolate that seems to be in a lot of boxes. luckily, it was $4.99 less (dash button rebate). even saving, i still felt it wasn’t a great value.

i’m going to order another box soon, hoping i get one that i like better!

I have been really happy so far, with the boxes I get. my only unhappiness is Amazon doesn’t sell any of the sweets. So if you really like something, it is hard to get it again.

Still not off the waitlist and have been on since January. I’m over it.

Different strokes time. That chocolate bar was one of the best things I’ve ever eaten. Got it in a box last year and have looked all over town for one.

This box looks amazing!!! That peanut butter cup though…swoon! ❤ My first box was so disappointing that I’ve been hesitant to press it again. I may have to give it another shot.

This looks so yummy, that whoopie pie in particular!

I am with a few others down below, I requested my button back on the same day you guys posted your first review. Even though we use Amazon a lot, have Amazon Fresh, and use several buttons in our house for other products I still haven’t been taken off the waiting list. Seems a little disappointing, but maybe it’s a lot more popular than I guessed?

Well now I’ve gone and pressed the button again. I hope I get to try that whoopie pie!

Is this the only box like this that Amazon has?

My first delivery of this box comes tomorrow and I’m getting:

CocoaPlanet Mandarin Orange
Very a Chocolates Luxury Chocolate Tiles
Fran’s Chocolate Mint Thins
Mrs. Weinstein Toffee Milk Almond Toffee Squares
KUL Chocolate Artisan Crafted 70% Dark Chocolate Bar, Saltsation
Bissinger’s Caramelized Blood Orange
CocoaPlanet Deep Dark Truffle

Would love to get the box reviewed though! Looks delish! Maybe it will show up for my next one!

Oh… I wonder if I push my button, will get this amazing box?! Awesome!!

EVERY box you’ve reviewed was DRAMATICALLY better than the lame one I got. Mine was disappointing enough for me to chuck the button in the garbage.

This is the best looking Amazon Sweets box I’ve seen BY FAR!

I requested January 2nd and still have not received my invitation 😢

Yummy. Very tempting.
