Orange Glad Sweet Box is a subscription that allows you to get all those fashionable cavities you have been wanting but just haven’t had the time to get. They strive to bring interesting and gourmet sweets right to your doorstep all for the price of about $15 a month plus shipping. There are many codes and different options you can sign up for so keep an eye out!
I first starting getting subscription boxes I would think to myself that a sweets box would be the last think I would want. I mean, yeah, I like sweets but they are all over the place. Now I finally understand. The joy that Orange Glad brings is the discovery of new bakeries and treats that you would otherwise might not ever get a chance to try.
Needless to say I get super excited when I get a shipping notice because I know FOR SURE that I am getting something happy in the mail!
I know there is something inside for me!
The info booklet is always pretty and makes me want to eat my sweets in a field or not in the dark after everyone has gone to bed…
Euro Snack – Le Waf: Belgian waffles are really good. They have this sugar of them that when warmed makes them a treat of epic yumminess. I can confirm in Brussels they are crazy for waffles. They have stands that sell them all day. Some are plain, some are dipped in chocolate. It is a no joke! So this will be a great morning snack for when I can convince myself that I am starting my day off right by eating such things, because it feeds my international palate.
Yet, waffles that are made at home are still american waffles…
La Petite Occasion – Chocolate Caramel with Pink Himalayan Salt: These are good, but they do not have the strong chocolate taste that would be suited for dark chocolate lovers and stated in the info card. It did not stop me from stuffing them in my gob. I tend to like my caramels a bit more buttery but these were sweet and did not gum up my teeth. So I totalllly would eat this again…
I feel like I could be a super cool grandma and instead of having Werthers Originals in my giant purse I could have awesome artisan caramels!
The Crispery – Chocolate Sprinkles Crispycakes: This brand has been sent before but in a different flavor so I am not mad. It is HUGE and heavy! I cannot stress how bad your day must be to actually be able to finish this in a sitting. I mean one would think a crispy cake, can’t be too rich right? Not right. This thing is super heavy! I haven’t tried it yet…
This would be an awesome item for a realty show food fight!
Marlo’s Bake Shop – Original Soft Bake Biscotti: I like to dunk these in mocha’s. It is like an awesome combo that everyone should enjoy or they are missing out. Now, a regular dry biscotti isn’t really my thing. I will eat one dry, but I will think the whole time about dipping it. This is soft baked so it is not as dry as others. Have you every had a biscotti that you bit into and though “my word, that would have broken my tooth!”?
I think biscotti was invented by dentists to make more money!
Raley’s Confectionery – Citrus Mix Fruit Rock Candy: I have had these sent in another Orange Glad box. I believe not that long ago. They are totally good but it sort of gets my goat to get them again. Come on guys, I get this box to try new stuff!
This is the perfect stuck in traffic treat… sour about the traffic or sour about the candy? I’ll never tell!
Verdict: Orange Glad Sweet Box is usually a box full of wonder and sweet sweet goodness. This month all the treats were good but I felt it was a bit repetitive. I wonder if they will branch out to try different types of products and not repeat brands or even out and out products. I will stay subscribed because honestly I enjoy the treats, however, it doesn’t really make for a fun review when many of the items are repeats…
I need to add “google recipe for shelf stable waffle recipe that I will make for my wee ones but I would end up eating”. Nommy review as always!
I want to know how they do it as well! Also how do they get that light sweet covering on it?!?
Thanks to YOU I got my first box today. I had it sent to my office. Epic mistake!!!! I don’t know what I’m going to do when I have to work late and am left alone with the giant marshmallow treat dunked in chocolate sprinkles. The waffle and biscotti, with coffee for breakfast yum yum. I may share the citrus candy with my coworkers. I bought the box with intentions of coworker sharing, a fun sugar party, but I’m afraid it may turn into a solo sugar pity party.
It would be WAY too hard for me to share in an office setting. I have to be honest, I would hoard it and eat it all quiet so that no one knew I had anything good hahaha I would tell myself that there wasn’t enough for EVERYONE… so like… better I just eat it all silent at my desk….
Lol! I really like this box. I think it would make a great gift. It reminds me of a candy Yuzen box, nice presentation, nice packaging, & fun yummys. Thanks for reviewing I never would have known.
“I think biscotti was invented by dentists to make more money!” – Ha! You’d never see that in a review on MSA… that’s why this blog is my favorite. 🙂
Every time I read your reviews of this box, I want to order it…. then I imagine myself eating it all alone in my closet hiding from my loved ones so I don’t have to share……
Yeah it is kinda a tragic life but I figure it is better then the other stuff I think up … 😉
