Holiday Gift Guide: Nicobella Truffles Review and GIVEAWAY!!!


Oh, you guys.. I hope you are ready.. This is a good one. 


Nicobella is a company that sells Organic Vegan Dark Chocolates. They specialize in the most amazing truffles ever! The difference is that Nicobella replaces the cream and sugar that is typically used in the filling of the truffles with vegan natural ingredients such as agave nectar or brown rice sryup. And the result is pure bliss!!!

I received a ton of samples of Nicobella's wonderful chocolates to review. They have so many unique flavors, it was hard to choose my favorite! I would have to say that I love the Pumpkin Chai and the Blueberry Almond the best! They also have other great flavors like Ginger Green Tea, Sunflower Banana Butter, Walnut Flaxseed, and Pure Cocoa Bliss. I was a little worried about how the truffles would be, since I don't know much about Vegan or Organic foods. I was afraid they wouldn't taste as good as "regular" chocolates. I am happy to report that I think I honestly like them better than regular chocolates! I am a huge fan of dark chocolate anyway, so these were right up my alley! 

Truffles aren't the only thing that Nicobella knows how to do! They also make "munches", which are sooo yummy! My favorite is the Maple Nut Munch, which is dark chocolate, pecans, and sea salt. It is really the best snack I have ever had! They also have Coconut Munch, and also Mama Munch, which was designed with the needs of pregnant women in mind. 

From the Nicobella site: 

Nicobella Mama Munch is a healthy indulgence made with organic, Fair Trade 72% dark chocolate, candied walnuts and toasted flax seeds, which are naturally rich sources of Omega 3 fatty acids, protein, lignans, antioxidants and fiber. Mama Munch was developed with the special nutritional needs of pregnancy in mind, but can be enjoyed by anyone who would like more Omega 3, fiber and antioxidants in their diet. Mama Munch is a deliciously decadent way to get these essential nutrients.

A big thanks to Nicobella for letting me try your wonderful products!

  23. oh! i just purchased a sampler and finished them yesterday. here's my take:
    blueberry almond: OMG YES!!! they reminded me of these totally non-vegan chocolate covered raspberry jellies i used to gorge on when i was little.
    ginger green tea: very tasty
    pumpkin chai: eh. give or take. it was kind-of bland, but i'd be up for giving it another try.
    pure cocoa bliss: very nice. it definitely had a fruity undertone, and was nice and simple
    walnut flaxseed crunch: eh.
    sunflower banana butter: a little disconcerting. the flavors didn't seem to match all that well.
