My final box from the World Sampler Box service by Yummy Bazaar arrived awhile back and once again I found myself discovering and enjoying some new foods. The contents of the April 2018 box amounted to 6 items from Spain, Germany, and France.
Two of the items were sweet and nutty. Chabert Guillot, a famous almond nougat from France, had a soft, chewy consistency based on a recipe that hails back to 1650! The other comes from Germany; Milka’s Nussini hazelnut wafer is crispy and chocolate dipped.
Yummy Bazaar also included a second German item, dill salad dressing mix from one of my favorite dry goods company, Knorr. I didn’t personally this product, but it looks really easy to make. Just add water and olive oil!
I’ve never had a cake from Spain until I subscribed to Yummy Bazaar. Ines Rosales delivers their cakes in small square servings packed with flavor and density. Described as a citrus cake, the crumbly dessert actually tastes like pumpkin spice with only a light lemon essence. I felt like I was eating a slice of pie at Thanksgiving!
My favorite item in the box was two authentic French croissants by Brioche Pasquier. I was so surprised to see them when I opened the box – would they taste fresh? Yes they were! I can’t begin to describe how good I enjoyed them with a cup of coffee. The croissants were perfect: soft, sweet, and buttery.
Rounding out the box was another French delicacy, sugar free mints. Rendez Vous’ Pastilles are round bead-like mints with natural coloring and flavoring. Customers received different flavors; my box came with “Menthe Creme.” C’est tres bien!
My experience with Yummy Bazaar’s World Sampler subscription was positive. I did not expect to like every item I received, but that give me a great opportunity to share with others. For the average price of $10 a box, it’s one of the better subscription box deals I’ve seen online. Visit their website at www.yummybazaar.com to see their grocery store and subscriptions.
