Universal Yums!, who kindly sent me this box to review, is a monthly subscription box featuring international snacks. Each month you will receive a selection of snacks from a different country delivered right to your door. They offer a “Yum Box” for $13/month which includes 6 or more snacks every month and a “Yum Yum Box” for $25/month which includes 13 or more snacks every month.. I received the Yum Yum Box to review.
Universal Yums! ships via USPS Priority Mail. Their first box won’t ship until 12/1, but this the box you’ll receive if you subscribed.
It took me a second to realize that the tissue paper matched the theme this month, but once I did I thought it was very creative!
The first Universal Yums! snack destination was Germany and included the following items:
~Monster Munch Cheese: I would describe these as thin, ghost shaped cheese puffs. Except they are better. We all loved these. I need to find them locally!
~Haribo Gold Bears: Does anyone not love gummy bears? We are all big fans here and will be fighting over these.
~Kinder Happy Hippo Hazelnut: We actually have these at our local gourmet grocery store and have gotten them a few times. They aren’t the best Kinder chocolate out there, but they are one of the cutest!
~Dr. Quendts Dinkelchen: I quickly glanced at the package and thought these were chocolate cover raisins. Turns out they are chocolate covered A’s. They remind me of a cereal covered in chocolate. Not a bad thing at all.
~Naturals Paprika Chips: I don’t like these quite as much as I liked the cheddar ghosts, but they are good.
~Hitschler Softi Kaubonbon: The best way to describe these would be a thinner (better) version of Laughy Taffy. The packages were kind of hard to get open, but that’s kind of to be expected with candy like this.
~Ritter Sport: I think we have these here as well. I haven’t tried them before this arrived though and I am a fan.
~Curly Peanuts: I am cracking up because B saw these and was like no, I am not having those again. I don’t remember them at all, but he clearly did. I tried them and didn’t think they were fantastic or anything, but I didn’t think they were awful.
~Schluckwerder Marzipan: This is marzipan covered with chocolate. I haven’t gotten a chance to try it yet, but I will. I am really amazed by the things that people can sculpt with marzipan. Have you ever seen marzipan babies? Wow. Just wow.
~Manner Lemon Wafers: Loved these! I love all lemon cookies so suspected I would enjoy these as well. They were more tart than other lemon wafers I have tried, but I thought it made them better.
~Leibniz Pick Up!: These appeared in another snack box a while back and I loved them. They are chocolate filled biscuits and are amazing.
~Saltletts Classic: I thought these tasted like regular pretzel sticks, but B thought they were “lighter and more buttery” than other pretzel sticks. Either way, they were good!
I didn’t do a cost breakdown on the Universal Yums! box, but I thought it was a very fun box to get and can’t wait to see what other countries they decide to feature. Like I mentioned, if you subscribe by 12/1 you will receive this box and for a limited time they are offering their Yum Box for only $10 (reg. $13) and their Yum Yum Box for only $20 (reg.$25)! They have also offered to let me give one away, which you can enter right here! Best of luck!
