February Degustabox



I received my February Degustabox.  When I got my email saying it would be delivered today I was rather excited as I had a months break.  The thing I love most about these boxes is you never know what is going to be in there.  I love a nice surprise
So here is what I got in this months box.

Schwartz Flavour Shots
I received the Spanish Paella and Indian Mild Masala Curry.
We can't wait to try these little pots of yumminess to create 2 lovely dishes.
Once we have used them I will share the recipes with you.
£1.40 for 2








Jack Link's Beef Jerky
I have always wanted to try this out of curiosity.
These beef snacks were made for people on the go so they could have a tasty snack when busy.  The beef is seasoned with herbs and spices.
£1.39




Melba Thins
I love a good healthy option that is still full of flavour.
Melba thins are slices of crisp toast.  I am going to add some
ham to mines, or maybe some goats cheese. The toppings are endless.
£1.39







Lily O'Brien's
I love love love Lily O'Brien's chocolates.
In today's box there was a bag of their Cocoa Cookie Crunch.
You have to try their chocolates, best ever!
I have hidden these from the children hehe.
£2.60







Beet It
The number one nitrate brand in the world. These little bars contain beetroot juice which is proven to lower blood pressure and improve performance. I will certainly be trying these.
£1.85 for 2





Laimon Fresh
Lemon, Lime and Mint flavoured drink.
This is crisp and refreshing.  I really like the flavours.
All natural ingredients is always a good thing.
£1.99







American Muffin Company
These little muffins didn't last 5 minutes once the kids set eyes on them, and that includes the husband being the biggest kid.
Gluten and wheat free the muffins are still packed with yumminess.
£2.50




Whole Earth
Three nut butter (cashew, hazelnut and peanut)
I am not a fan of peanut butter but James and the children like it.
With no added sugars I don't mind them having some.
Also suitable for vegetarians and vegans.
**not suitable for those with nut allergies
£3.00





Peanut Hottie
The worlds first peanut butter hot drink.
With a mix of American peanuts this drink it a little different to the norm.
This will be used by my husband and possibly the kids.
**not suitable for those with nut allergies
£3.00








Overall I am very happy with this month's box.  What do you think of the contents?  I have a money off voucher for anyone who is interested.

  1. Sounds like a good box this month. Sometimes they can be pretty random can't they?

    I've got some of that peanut hottie, it seemed like a good idea at the time but I haven't actually tried it yet.

    1. I quite like this month's box. They certainly can be random. A few times I have had energy drinks which I give away as no-one on my house drinks them.
      The peanut hottie is for my hubby lol I am not a fan of peanuts x

  6. I'd be worried about waste if there were items that we didn't like - we tend to steer clear of packet stuff anyway, too leery about what's hidden in there!

    1. I have been lucky with the products I have received in the boxes. I have to be careful with fat content but this box has been quite good that way.

  7. Some interesting things. Can't imagine what a peanut hot drink would be like. I love peanut butter though so would be good to try.

  10. There is a varied combination in your box. I'd like a bit more choice in what I received. Can you for example say you don't like nuts or chocolate and they won't send those in future boxes?
