Fruit Bowl - Various Products

So recently I was very kindly send some Fruit Bowl goodies to try out! I have a 6 year old son who I am always trying to find new snacks for. I had heard about Fruit Bowl before but I had never tried any out.

When the package arrived I was so excited, and so was my son! He really wanted to try them out straight away! He is a child who eats little and often so he is always asking for a snack just after school - I thought these would be perfect to try out at that time! I apologise for the lack of pictures - this is just due to most of them being used on the go! All the products were really good and we will definitely be trying out all the others in the range! My daughter is almost 1 so I would like to try out the little fruit bowl range too which is for children ages 12months +

The packaging is brightly coloured and easily recognised on the shelf! I would recognise the brand easily. These snacks are all suitable for putting in a lunch box, they seem great for all ages (including adults I loved the mango flakes!). Getting my son to eat fruit isn't too hard, but I have to say there is always waste, and when it has been in his lunch box there is always mess! Using some of these snacks can give your child 1 of their 5 a day without the mess or waste! You can use them out an about as well - as I previously said I took most of these as after school snacks for my son, they come in individually wrapped packages which are perfectly sized for little ones. I only personally ate the mango flakes which tasted delicious - I almost felt I was eating sweets they were so nice! I think this could be a great way to get your children to eat fruit especially if they are fussy or just do not like many fruits! I have found in the past that some fruit snacks have lots of ingredients in them - therefore they are probably not exactly as healthy for you as they claim to be! Fruit bowl, however, have very little ingredients in them besides the fruit! All of the snacks are Gluten free and suitable for vegetarians and the fruit flakes are also dairy free too. My son can be fussy with what he eats and we really do struggle with him eating enough sometimes so I was really glad when he liked all the snacks that he tried - I know he doesn't like mango and I do which is why I ended up having those.

On their site you can buy some of the snacks in the range, you buy them in packs of 18 for flakes and raisins or 24 for the bars and peelers. All the snacks work out between 30p and 40p each which is a really good deal and nothing compared to the chocolate bars you might buy for them to eat! A lot of the snacks are available from most leading supermarkets - on their site you can see which products are available from which stores.

As an example I took a look at Tesco and saw that you could buy 6 packs of Yoghurt Raisins or 6 packs of Strawberry Yoghurt flakes for £2 making them 30p per pack. You could also buy a pack of 5 school bars for £1.85 making them 37p each. These prices are very good, especially for the quality of ingredients you are getting inside them!
