The Cravory Review & Giveaway

The Cravory 
The Ultimate Cookie Experience
"The Cravory is home to over 950 customized cookie creations 
from sweet to savory. If you can imagine it, we can create it - 
whether it's Savory Rosemary Balsamic, Pancakes and Bacon, 
Red Velvet, or Chocolate Chip. The Cravory Cookies are the 
ultimate cookie experience with a perfectly baked surface 
and a soft cookie center that melts in your mouth!"
From the moment I discovered The Cravory online 
I have honestly been craving..no joke..a good chewy 
mouth watering cookie! I was good and didn't give
into my crazy prego hormones and run right out to find
one, instead I patiently waited for my package from 
The Cravory to arrive hoping it was going to be just as
good and mouth watering as they looked on their website.
I excitedly opened my package to find their cute striped
box filled with six of their Signature Creations!
So many delicious sounding choices, my hubby and I 
couldn't decide what one to dig into first!
 
We decided finally to go with the Oreo Milkshake!
Thick chunky and mouthwatering goodness for sure..it did
not disappoint, I finally got my caving fix and boy was it good!
So full of flavor combining chunks of tasty Oreos and Guittard
White Chocolate chips filled the cookie dough. I bit into something
a little different, a texture and crunch I didn't expect as well, but
still with great flavor. I got online to see the ingredients and found its
 made with a Malted milk & hand chopped malt balls base! Awesome!
Next we tried the Red Velvet, which was one I was hoping we
would receive and one that sounded to good to be true!
Once again, it didn't disappoint one bit!
 
Its red color and appearance gets your tastebuds on edge 
waiting to discover the flavor inside! A Swirl of cream cheese and 
Creamy Guittard White and Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips 
melt in your mouth with each bite. This one too is definitely a must try!

We had to stop ourselves before we enjoyed the box all in one 
sitting! When my parents stopped by while in town the next day
for a quick visit we pulled the box out again and let them
be a part of The Cravory experience as well!

Another that instantly caught my eye online was the Chocolate Truffle
the name says it all! You can just imagine the goodness it contains!
How does one describe the taste of such another amazing treat? 
The look, the taste..it was all there..and oh so good! I like the way
they descibed it online so I am going to let them help me tell it
like it is, my comments just won't do it justice! You just have to try it!
"Get your apprehensions valeted at the front, because once
you’re inside, there is no going back. Its powdered sugar curtains 
give way to layers of complexity patterned with excessively
large nuggets of creamy Lindt Swiss Chocolate Truffles. 
Each step inside takes you further into its velvety abyss. 
You’ve taken the first bite. Powdered sugar is flurried across
the top, encrusting this creation as you linger and sink into its
plush comforts. It’s ok to be a lush here, we understand."
Only one I was iffy about. Really a cookie Savory Rosemary Balsamic
hmmmm this could be interesting. I am thinking mini red rosemary 
potatoes, or a rosemary balsamic salad dressing..but a cookie
questionable. But of course we gave it the benifit of the doubt 
and all took a chunck to explore its flavors. My first though..just
as I said. Interesting. Was it bad..no. Was it disgusting..no.
Is it something I would fall in love with..not exactly, but it wasn't to bad. 
The flavor was good, once I could get over the fact that it was 
a cookie! My parents and husband had almost the same
reaction. After a few more bites the more the flavors make sense
and the more you enjoy its uniqueness. Definitely packed full 
of flavor and the rosemary and balsamic really stood out. It was
fun to taste, try and experience for sure. 

We had so much fun giving our taste buds a little love
and enjoying each new flavor. We loved the Birthday Cake
and I would honestly prefer it over the actual cake itself..I would
be so up for a box of Birthday Cake Cookies over a full cake!
 Its a delicious sugar cookie mounded with colorful sprinkles 
and great vanilla taste..complete with creamy vanilla chips! Yum!

And last but not least the Ultimate Chocolate Chip. Always 
a favorite, always a fan to cookie lovers! Generous amounts of
Guittard Gourmet Bittersweet Chocolate, as well as milk and
semi-sweet morsels and a small amount of sea salt crystals to 
bring it all together..what more can I say.. what are you waiting for?
The Cravory is for sure the ultimate cookie experience! 
I highly recommend you try it out!

  1. I love savory baked goods (hello, bacon cupcakes!), so the savory grouponer mix actually sounds pretty good. I would love to try the Mexican chocolate, or the lemon cherry basil. Although, that birthday cake one sounds pretty interesting as well! And, I am a GFC follower. :)
