When life gives you macaroons....

July 23, 2012 by Sarah Howells 4 Comments

When I was told I was going to be sent some samples of Mrs Crimble's goodies, I hadn't expected this....

A WHOLE BOX OF YUMMINESS!!!

I was told this is part of a new campaign by the brand to 'Share the Love', and I have to say, I certainly was feeling the love BIG TIME when this turned up on my doorstep!

I've just about, a couple of weeks on, managed to plough my way through most of the goodies, so here's what I though!

(Apologies for lack of photos - camera has run out of battery and I seem to have misplaced my charger so just a few crappy phone snaps)

Jam coconut rings

These treats made me think of children's tea parties!

The coconut rings are sweet (but not too sweet) and the jelly-like jam in the middle gives you a little something to look forward to!

I like to nibble mine all round the edge then eat the jam bit last....how about you!?

Chocolate Macaroons

These were some of the first gluten free products I ever remember trying. Back as a kid, it was a revelation to find these goodies (bottom right of the pic above).

These are super sweet coconut macaroons, coated in chocolate - the perfect indulgent treat if you have a sweet tooth!

Cranberry macaroons

My favourite of all! (Right)

I could have demolished these in 10 seconds flat!!

They weren't as overpoweringly sweet as the other macaroons, and were just sooo delicious!

I really, really loved these beauties!

Mini chocolate orange macaroons

Like the above, only smaller and orange-y! Personally am not a massive fan of orange-flavoured stuff, but these certainly went down a treat with my family and were gone in a matter of minutes!

If you'd like to nominate someone to receive a box of goodies, you can share the love by nominating them here.

    I LOVE Mrs Crimbles products! Did the jam rings have edible paper on the bottom - I love that, such a nice touch. HOW did you manage to balg all this free stuff by the way!?

      Yes they did! Mmmm they were yummy. They actually contacted me through my blog! Stroke of luck I think, you'll have to persuade lots of people to nominate you for a box in their Share the Love campaign 😉 x
