Vitalicious Review!
Happy Friday!
I don’t know about you, but this week has seemed particularly long. I mean, it kind of flew by, but I’m just exhausted! I’ll have to scrounge up some energy for the weekend, as it’s going to be pretty busy. (#VAisforbloggers meet up on Saturday!)
Anyways, the awesome folks at Vitalicious sent me a few boxes of their new 50 calorie VitaCakes to review, and since they’re awesome, I thought I’d do a review of the cakes AND the muffins! So let’s begin:
If you’ve never had a VitaMuffin (Kat, I’m looking at you!) these things are delicious! They come frozen, and since they don’t have preservatives, you need to keep them frozen until ready to eat. You can either leave them out for a few hours, or nuke them in the microwave for instant gratification.
I’ve tried both the double chocolate chip and the banana nut flavor and both are excellent.
VitaMuffins and VitaCakes are:
- Low in calories
- High in fiber/protein
- Easy to eat on the go
- Have no artificial additives or preservatives
- A delicious way to satisfy a sweet craving
They also taste really rich. They don’t taste like cardboard cakes, like some “low calorie” cakes do. Really the only downside is the price. They’re not cheap. (Around $5 for a box of 4…) but sometimes they’re on sale, and it’s cheaper than grabbing a muffin at a coffee shop.
That’s the banana nut muffin with a smear of nut butter on top, because everything is better that way.
Or if I want a smaller snack, the new VitaCakes are only 50 calories!
I usually take one with me in the mornings, and it’s thawed by the time I need a snack! (They also don’t smush, because they’re frozen… which sounds silly, but we all know is kind of a big deal.)
There are lots of other flavors I haven’t tried, but I can definitely vouch for these two!
These look like such a good, tasty treat! I don’t usually have any snacks. I never think that far ahead.
awesome review! i usually carry a couple of granola bars in my backpack at school 🙂
I REALLY want to try these! I will once I go to the US again (hopefully) sometime soon. 🙂
i’ve always wanted to try vitamuffins but always bulk cause of the price 🙁
Great review! I have had a few of these before and they are so good! A bit expensive though, so a more once in a while thing
I saw these in Target last night if you’re looking to save 🙂
have such a great time in CVille tmrw – can’t wait to hear about/see a recap!! 🙂
oooh these look tasty boo to not being available in the uk:( my favourite snack is a nakd bar bit like your larabars
I used to love these – I just wish they were gluten-free! Now I totally rely on Pure bars!
Oh goodness…I snack all day long and my purse if FULL of packaged things and nuts 🙂 LOL!
Happy Friday!
