I was sent this box for the purpose of review. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
It is that time of month again for my Degustabox review. This month, the theme of the box was ‘Picnic’. The box retails at £12.99 but you can get your first box for just £7.99 with shipping included. Just use this code WDGX9 on the website here (the code gets you a one time discount of £5).
So what did we receive in this months box?
MONIN Butterscotch Coffee Syrup – £3
Now neither me or Steve drink coffee but love butterscotch. We haven’t tried this yet but may use it in other things instead of coffee such as porridge.
I have been seeing ads for this everywhere and had been meaning to pick a bottle up so was glad to see this in the box. Everyone is really enjoying this – it is deliciously refreshing and is low in calories with no sweeteners or preservatives. Yummy.
Frank’s RedHot Original Cayenne – £1.50
Steve loves a hot sauce so was very happy to see this included in the box. It is very flavourful and great paired with some BBQ food!
Ravish Pineapple & Yuzu salsa – £1.50
Words cannot express just how much Steve and I like this – it is delicious! It was almost gone within an hour of opening, we had to restrain ourselves from eating it all. We will definitely be getting more of this…so good!
Kallo Belgian milk chocolate mini rice cake snack packs – £1.99
These were another item from the box that almost went straight away. My kids love rice cakes as a snack and these snack packs each contain six miniature rice cakes. Both my kids really enjoyed these so we will be buying more on our weekly shop.
Ape Snacks Coconut Bites Sesame Seed – £1.49
These were a delicious little snack that I wasn’t expecting the kids to like but they really liked them too! Very coconutty and super crunchy, these are a great snack to have in your bag on days out.
Deli Kitchen Greek Style Flatbreads – £1.35
We love flatbreads and these are soooo good. They’re fluffy, filling and great for making something different for dinner.
Mister Free’d Vegan Tortilla Chips with Beetroot – £1.99
Now these did something amazing – Steve doesn’t normally like beetroot but he really enjoyed these, especially dipped in the pineapple salsa. These were fully consumed by us all on the day the box arrived, they’re so tasty!
Rowntrees Randoms Squish’ems & Sours sharing bags – £1.29 each
We’ve had Randoms a few times in the boxes recently so it was nice to see two different items from the Randoms range rather than just the original pack. These were very popular with the whole family and tasted great.
Simply Cook Piri Piri Chicken 3 Step Meal Kit – £2.50
Steve and I love piri piri chicken so this is very handy. This is a chef’s authentic flavour blend and you pair it with your fresh ingredients for a tasty meal. We are yet to use it but it will definitely be used and enjoyed.
The boxes contents come to just under £19 which is great when you consider the box costs you just £12.99. That’s a saving of almost £6 and whilst other boxes have sometimes been over the £20 mark, it is still a great saving.


I like the idea of degusta box, but I think there’s stuff that we just wouldn’t ever use in there and it seems a bit pants to pay money for things you might now like. Maybe I’m just too tight, haha! I suppose stuff you don’t like can be donated. I love the sound of butterscotch syrup though!
This is right up my street. I always get those coconut bites as a snack at work. Love them! The Pineapple & Yuzu salsa sounds amazing, will check out the link and code!

My oldest son loves Frank’s. The box had some neat things in it that I’m not familiar with, I’d definitely be up for trying chocolate covered mini rice cakes.
The Piri piri chicken meal kit would go down a storm in our house!
I love my monthly Degustabox and it’s so exciting to open. Looking forward to trying out the Butterscotch syrup
Love the idea of Degustabox. It must be exciting to open the box every month to see what you’ve got and to try new things. The butterscotch syrup sounds delicious.
I really must try one of these boxes, they always look so good! Great value for money too. Kaz
I’ve never heard of these boxes before but they look really great value. I like the variety you seem to get.
It’s certainly the weather for a picnic themed box! This looks great, I’d love to try that salsa
