I’ve bought and enjoyed the bag of “Stella di Notte” cookies. They are very nice with coffee or tea. Chocolatey, and very crispy and light. In addition to snacking, they’d be great as crumbs in a crumb crust. I bought a bag for my daughter as well.
One of the crew told me she was not impressed by the bourbon coffee. I look forward to trying a sample of it at the coffee station though, just to see.
I bought a box of the pixie pie mix today. It is just too interesting not to try. I’d love to see a similar product with a chocolate base instead of the sweet potato too, and a graham cracker crust. MMMMM…s’mores Pie!
I detest anything cranberry, so will avoid those products with it (sigh, there are a lot this time of year, aren’t there?)
Just picked up the pixie pie yesterday. Made it that night and it was amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Everything sweet and delicious about sweet potato marshmallow casserole in a delicious buttery rich pie. Super easy and quick to make. Love it! Need to go pick up a couple more boxes. Definitely bringing this to thanksgiving this year.
I did not care for the Stelle di notte cookies. I thought they were quite tasteless and there was no cocoa flavor to me. Made me wish I took advantage of their policy to sample anything in the store, as I find their snack products tend to be hit or miss.
Stelle di notte and Bourbon Barrell coffee
Picked these up last week. Liked the chocolate wafer cookies. One or two are good weith tea.
Was not as happy with the Bourbon Barrell aged coffee. The bourbon flavor slightly overpowered the coffee flavor.
I tried the Stelle Di Notte cookies… they are so crispy and with the right amount of chocolate! They are a product of Italy which is the reason I bought them. Mmmmmm!! I APPROVE.
