Giveaway & Review: Edible Gifts Plus Gourmet Treats [CLOSED]

Many people associate the words "Mother's Day gift" with words like thoughtful, pampering, and indulgence. Well what could be more indulgent than a beautiful box of hand decorated gourmet treats?

I was so excited when Edible Gifts Plus (a successful mom-owned business run by single mom Margo Rappel) offered to send my family a sample of their Belgian Chocolate Dipped Oreos to try. My husband was looking forward to these too. He is an Oreo cookie fiend.

Take a look at what arrived at our door . . .




Here is what my family and I thought about our Chocolate Dipped Oreos:

1) I was very impressed by the presentation. The windowed box with the pink satin ribbon and bow looked very sweet and elegant.

2) Each cookie was decorated so beautifully, that I thought they looked too pretty to eat. (I did eventually have to do my duty and eat one. The sacrifices I have to make for an accurate review, right?)

3) Even though my son did not know exactly what they were, his eyes grew wide when he peered into that box and he just knew by looking at them that they were something special.

4) The cookies were sealed in plastic for freshness. I was very surprised to find that the cookies were very crisp and not soft or stale at all.

5) I appreciate that there was a very detailed label on the bottom of the box that contained the nutritional facts and ingredients. By the way, even though these particular confections do not contain nuts, there may be traces of nuts (including peanuts) in them. Anyone with peanut allergies should be aware of this.

6) I liked that there was one cookie that said "Mom" on it. It made it a special cookie that was just for me and I did not have to fight my husband and children for it.

I think anybody would love to receive a beautiful box of gourmet goodies from Edible Gifts Plus. Their selection is vast and they really make it easy to choose a personalized gift. I had no complaints whatsoever about these heavenly cookies, but my husband wanted to make one suggestion. He would like to see Margo add dipped "Double Stuff" Oreos to the selection.
