Orange Glad is
a new subscription box that sends out baked goods and artisan sweets
each month. The month to month plan is $15, plus $6.95 shipping &
handling. Since these are sweets that are highly perishable and/or
meltable this shipping cost seems quite fair, since mine arrived in
perfect condition.
If you love sweets and want to
sample some of the most unique gourmet treats from across the US, Orange
Glad is a great choice in my opinion. I was really pleased with my
first box!

Unboxed |
|
Chocolate
Cake Bites from I Live for Dessert: These two little deep chocolate
cake bites are moist cake filled with bittersweet chocolate chips and
cocoa. We dusted them with the included cocoa powder/chocolate mix and
they were really great. So rich that just one will satisfy your
chocolate craving. |
|
Pineapple
Coconut Biscotti from Hottie Biscotti: These two decadently dipped
biscotti have a layer of white chocolate and are then rolled in flaky
coconut. The taste of pineapple is fairly slight, with coconut and white
chocolate being more predominant. This is absolutely my favorite fancy
biscotti that I've ever had. A creative flavor that I fell in love with. |
|
Lemon
Frosted Sugar Cookies from Gianna's Homemade Baked Goods: These are
very soft sugar cookies with lemon icing. The lemon is something I
wasn't sure I'd like, but it was perfectly done: A hint of lemon so that
you knew it was there but it was definitely not overpowering at all.
Not too sweet, not too sour, this would be a great cookie with tea, I
think. |
|
Popcornopolis
Caramel Corn with Chocolate Stripes: This was so, so, decadent and
incredible. It is not just your ordinary caramel corn: It is the
richest, most buttery caramel corn imaginable and it has drizzles of
chocolate on top. So delicious. |
|
Chocolate
Sprinkles Crispycakes from The Crispery Crispy Cakes: The best rice
krispy treat ever. It was sweeter and more dense than your standard rice
krispy treat. Absolutely awesome. The krispies are layered with
marshmallow fluff and then topped with a layer of chocolate sprinkles.
This was HUGE and around 2 inches thick. I shared it with several others
and we all got a very big piece of it. |
|
A
wooden honey dipper was also included in the box! I loved this
unexpected inclusion because it is an item that I'll be able to use for a
long time. |
I absolutely loved the Orange Glad box,
especially because it's the first box of its type: It's not
candy-specific, but has baked goods of all kinds. The portions were very
generous and this box is plenty of treats for a couple or a family.
It's a great way to discover some unique new food favorites. I'd
recommend this for any sweets lover or any foodie as a fantastic gift.
