Like most subscription boxes, you'll get an information card that details each sweet in the box.
Chocolat Moderne: The Lover Avant-Garde Bar - Value $8
Our first sweet was a white chocolate bar filled with insane taste mixtures from Chocolat Moderne.
This bar has absolutely earned its Avant-Garde name. It's impossible for me to describe the filling taste - it's caramel with passion fruit and cardamom. It's a bit of a flavor explosion combined with white chocolate. For me, it was interesting/not-bad but probably one I wouldn't reorder.
Three Tarts: Raspberry Marshmallows - Value $9.50
These were my first gourmet marshmallows from my surprise sweets boxes!
The box contains 10 marshmallow bricks. These are really tasty! I was a little worried that the raspberry might be a bit overwhelming, but it was subtle enough to be tasty and last with a great aftertaste.
Albina City Nuts: Candied Pecans - Value $5
The last full-size treat is a bag of candied pecans from Albina City Nuts.
I knew I'd like these the minute I open the bag to the delicious scent! These are candied with some simple honey and organic cane sugar - but it really pops the flavor of the pecans. If you love pecans, you'll enjoy these as much as I do.
B.T. McElrath Chocolatier: Salty Dog Bite - Value $.70 on Amazon
I received the same bonus item in my first-ever box in January, so I knew what to expect from this little dark chocolate bite.
Each bite is filled with butter toffee and sea salt. It's a nice taste mixture against a dark chocolate. I love toffee, so this little bite was always going to be a winner.
Verdict: This month, my value comes to around $23.20 (not factoring in any shipping cost). The value of each box seems to sit right in the $22-27 range - so you're getting value for your $18 box, but if you hate one sweet, that value my drop off. This is our third time reviewing the box, and I've been excited to try something new each time - so for me, while the monetary value isn't a home run, the chance to taste test random sweets is pretty great.
