I am sharing a delicious and simple no-bake Easter treat with you today that your family and children are just going to love. Chocolare and Peanut Butter Cheerio Cups! Chocolatey, peanutbuttery, and crunchy. Not overly sweet, but still a delight. For Easter I have decorated the tops with candy covered chocolate mini Easter Eggs.
Every month I am the lucky recipient of a Degustabox. Once a month, around the middle of the month, I am sent one of these lovely boxes which contain a delicious assortment of all things foodie. I just love these boxes. Opening each one is tiny a bit like opening a Christmas gift. Always a surprise, and always filled with things that pique my interest and desire to try. Degustabox is a monthly foodie subscription service that sends out a range of 10 to 15 specially selected foodie products.
There's always a great mix of new products that I haven't tried before, as well as plenty of treats from more established brands. Quite often you will have the opportunity to try new products before they arrive in the shops, so it can be a bit of a sneak peak! Each Degustabox costs only £12.99, delivery costs are included in the price, and there is no fixed contract involved. You can cancel at any time. I love getting these boxes! In my opinion, they are great value for money spent. This month I can even offer you a discount. (more about that below) This month's (April) box was the Best of British Box!
