Hey-O, Farmcat is one of our amazing readers. She got this box called Crafted Gluten Free that I have been dying to try but can’t convince my husband to let me purchase under our food budget. Anyhoo- She agreed to share her impressions and…her kitties.

Crafted Gluten Free is a GOURMET Gluten Free sub box.
Price starts from $50 with shipping included
I purchased this box when I went a little ok a lot sub box crazy. I bought one month at $59 with shipping included. Everyone gets the same first box. And if you cancel and resubscribe just shoot them an email and they will start you where you left off. And it is easy to cancel.
Your first month’s box: Edison Grainery Quino Mac n’ Cheese; Backyard Safari White Bean Chili seasoning; Whitney’s Cheddar Crisps; Artisan Truffle Salt; GH Cretors Chicago Mix Popcorn; Sweetwood Cattle Co. Jerky; Bearded Brother’s Fablous, Ginger Peach Energy Bar; Yes Bar Macadamia Chocolate Chip; and Sante Seasoned Cashews.
This is the first time I have purchased a good sub box. While I was waiting for the box to arrive I was feeling like I went out on a limb.
At first look the box makes a good impression. The box seems big and I see full size products 🙂 and at first glance I can see carbs! I love carbs 🙂  I’m already starting to like the box.

Aww the rustle of the snack bags gets a kitty every time!
Ok now onto the noms:

The products:

This was amazing! It has amazing organic ingredients. The cheese is cheddar cheese which is always a plus. And this package is 5 servings 5! Most gluten free mac n’ cheese are only 2 1/2 servings. And not only is It deliciously smooth; it was filling. And if you want to make a more adult version of it just add some of the Artisian Truffle Salt that is also in this box.
$8.95
I love that they have seasonings in this box. Just an FYI: some packaged seasoning and spices do contain gluten. It serves 8 and there is a recipe on the back. This could go well with the Whitney’s Cheddar Crisps that are also in the box.
Yum carbs! I ate them all before I knew it. I was going to see if I could break some into crumbs and use it as part of the breading when I make homemade chicken nuggets. This made in a gluten free factory! The Vermont cheddar cheese they use is award winning.
$4.99
Artisan Truffle Salt:
I’m happy that included seasoning since some prepackaged seasoning and spices have gluten in it. It is a great gourmet salt. But I would have liked to have seen a different seasoning since I hardly use salt.
$16.99
I have had this before and it is great. And with this being a full size bag (7.5 oz) I was happy that it was in this box. In this bag there is a delightful mix of cheddar cheese popcorn and caramel popcorn. If you haven’t guessed by now I love cheddar cheese. And the caramel popcorn has just the right amount of sweetness.
$3.28
I ate this bar when I was a little low on energy and I did feel a difference. And it tasted great. It had a little sweetness to it thanks to the peach flavor.
$2.79
Macadamia Chocolate Chip Bar:
I found this to be a bit salty but good texture.
$3.50
I love that they have cashews in this box.
$5.49
I had gotten the Original. This jerky is great! I ate it all in one sitting. It was juicy and surprisingly a tiny bit sweet. Honey was one of the ingredients. This jerky is made from grasses beef. They also sell steaks.
$7.99
Total is $57.94 which I think is great for a food box.

This kitty is pleased with this box!
Verdict:
Crafted Gluten Free did a great job curating this box. I would recommend this box to anyone who is looking for a gourmet gluten free box or a gourmet food sub box or a gluten free sub box. What I would like to see in future boxes is pickles and chocolate. The pickles simply because I’m having a hard time finding pickles that are gluten free. And chocolate because well it is chocolate. And where I live I have extremely few choices for gluten free chocolate.

Crafted Gluten Free also has a Kids Gluten Free Subscription Box. So if you have children they have a children friendly subscription.
In their shop they have theme boxes and a lot of amazing products. I had gotten some buttercream frosting from their shop. The buttercream frosting was amazing……

    Thanks for sharing. I love that Chicago mix popcorn and the cheddar crisps.

    Vlasic pickles are gluten free and not processed in a plant that process any gluten.

      Thank you about Vlasic pickles. I love the cheddar crisp too. When I order some more. I’m going to try out to smash some into crumbs and make it as part of the breading when I make homemade chicken nuggets.

      I hope you love it! I know I did. It quickly became one of my favorites. Whenever I order some more buttercream frosting I will be ordering the Mac N Cheese too. The last time I put the buttercream frosting on some brownies I baked. It was a great combination!

          Thank you for commenting and thank you for having the review on your blog. When I first try to go gluten free a few years ago I thought it was going to be impossible. I love bread, pasta, pizza, pasteries, CHOCOLATE… Eventually I found gluten free versions that I like. Some I found to be more delicious than the gluten version. I have been surprised on more than one occasion that I like sometimes love gluten free versions of some foods I didn’t like at all. I never knew how much food and drinks that had gluten in it. And I’m still finding out (some times the hard way) some of the stuff has gluten hidden in it. I came by this sub box by chance and saw what was in their shop or market and I knew this was a great food sub box for me. The products in this box are made with quality ingredients And delicous ingredients.

            I posted your review on their FB page under a post because they don’t allow posts and I will get the pics up on Instagram. If any gluten free box wants a review I will see if you want to do it. I think it is really best to have a GF person review a GF box!
