Try The World, who kindly sent me this box to review, is a bi-monthly subscription box that allows you to try products from around the world without leaving your house. Their team of travelers and local experts curates a collection of products that best represent each country / city. The first box starts in Paris and then boxes move to Toyoko, Rio and other cities around the globe. Boxes include not only delicious gourmet finds but also a companion on the history of the products and how to use them.
The box I received for review is their Limited Edition Holiday Box. It’s $50 and is a one-time purchase box and includes winter culinary traditions from different countries.
The Try the World Holiday Box shipped in a plain brown box, but inside was this gorgeous box. It’s totally read for gift giving and you wouldn’t even have to wrap it.
The box included a Holiday Culture Guide and was packed full of items. I was excited to dig through everything and see what was inside!
The Try the World Holiday Box included the following items:
~Urbani Tartufi Truffle Products: I have tried the chocolates and, just as expected, they are fabulous. I do not believe B has used the black truffle oil yet, but we’ll find something fancy to make with it.
~La Palais Des Thes Fine Teas: As you know I don’t love tea, but my cousin loves it and is coming down to visit soon. These teas can be enjoyed hot or cold and use “warm spices and winter fruits”.
~Rip van Wafels Traditional Dutch Waffes: Love these. I have loved the traditional wafel since the first time I tried it, but I have never tried the Cocoa Filled one before. In fact, I didn’t even know it existed. I do now though!
~Mini Doce De Leite Milky Spread Gift Pack: I am still not sure about these. LOL! They are okay, but I am just not sure if I love them. Or if I want to have them on my ice cream, toast, etc. They aren’t like Nutella or peanut butter or anything that I want to eat off the spoon.
~Anna’s Pepparkakor Ginger Cookies: These are described as Scandinavian’s take on a gingersnap. I actually liked them better than gingersnaps though. These are thinner and pretty good.
~Les Confitures A L’Ancienne Hot Chocolate Powder: I have gotten this in a box or two in the past and it is amazing hot chocolate. So so good. I might have to have some tonight after L’s conferences.
~Favarger Chocolates: This chocolate is made in Switzerland and is amazing. I cracked into it as soon as I finished up taking all these pictures last week and really liked it. Super good!
~HazerBaba Turkish Delight with Pistachio: Every box comes with a Mystery Treat and this one was mine. I just don’t know about this one though! I am hoping that one of you can shed some light on this for me. What exactly is all happening here?
I didn’t do a cost breakdown on this box, but it works out to be $6.25/item which I don’t think is outrageous. I don’t know quite where I would get some of these items around here and while I didn’t love everything, it certainly is fun to try it!
What do you think of Try the World? For a limited time you can get a free Holiday Box (aka this box) with the purchase of a new subscription. When that offer expires (and I am not sure of an exact expiration date) you can use coupon code “SUBURBANMOM50” to save 30% off your first month!
