Orange Glad includes an informational card that details every item involved. One thing I also found interesting is that it also tells you how soon they recommend consuming it.
The Vagabond White Chocolate & Hazelnut – 3 oz (pack of 4), value: $4.50
Donsuemor Dipped Madeleine – .74 oz, value: $.65
Both of these treats were delicious, but my favorite between the two is the Dipped Madeleine. I liked the biscotti okay – I think it will be better with a cup of coffee!
Mighty Brittle Orange Blossom Flavor – 2.5 oz, value: $6
Sucre Macbubl – .74 oz
This macbubl is my favorite new discovery in the box! It’s described as an inside-out macaron. The outside is chocolate, then there’s a gooey chocolate ganache inside, and a crunchy delicious cookie in the middle. They don’t sell online (until June 2015), but apparently you can find them at Whole Foods!
Sugardaddy’s Auburn Original Brunette Sweetie - $4.75
This brownie has some espresso in it, and pieces of roasted walnut. This sounds like it would be especially yummy warmed on some ice cream!
Verdict: Overall, I was really happy with this month’s Orange Glad box. All of the treats were very interesting and I liked almost all of them quite a bit. The value adds up to about $16 (without considering a value for the macbubl, since I couldn’t find it). I wish it had a little more value, but I think this box tends to be more about discovery and featuring small businesses than value. Plus, they say they send 5 treats every time, so the box still meets my expectations.
