Almondina Gourmet biscuit cookies



Ever want a nice treat of a cookie without the guilt of all the calories? Also do you like Almonds? Almondina contacted me to try out their think crispy cookie. I was excited to try it since I had never had one of them before and really enjoy trying new things.




Darin was especially happy to see the box of goodies since he loves almonds. He’s always happy when we get a package with food it in. I don’t always tell him something is coming, but this one I did, so he was looking forward to it.

In the box was almost all the different flavors that Almondina offers. They have a huge variety of choices:

  •  Original - America's all natural favorite with almonds and raisins
  •  Chocolate Cherry - We combined the world's finest dark chocolate with plump cherries to produce an irresistible, decadent treat without guilt.
  •  Choconut - Rich tasting crunchy chocolate, but low in calories
  •  Cinnaroma® - The original biscuit for cinnamon lovers
  •  Gingerspice - Trend setting, with chunks of Australian ginger
  •  AlmonDuo® - Double-nut wonder with almonds and pistachios
  •  AnniversaryT - Award winning delight with a touch of anise
  •  BranTreats® - Made with oat bran and the finest cinnamon "Cookies For Breakfast"

  •   previously offered only certain times of the year is now available year round
  •  Delights – The Original® Almondina totally encased in Milk chocolate

Both myself and Darin are huge Cinnamon fans and our favorite flavor was the Cinnaroma. It didn’t have too strong of a taste on cinnamon, it was just perfect.
