Custom Choice Cereal Review and Giveaway
Cereal….it’s a staple of our every day diet! We eat it every morning for breakfast and sometimes as a snack during the day! Bottom line we love cereal at this house and love to experiment and try new and unique cereals so when we came across Custom Choice Cereal we just had to give them a try to make our perfect cereal!
About Custom Choice Cereal (Taken From Website):
Custom Choice Cereal enables you to create great tasting gluten-free cereal from a variety of high quality ingredients and delivers each mix conveniently to your doorstep.
That is it in a nutshell. Are you looking for "more meat on the bone" - or in our case - "more cereal in the bowl"? Read our story below and find out more about Custom Choice Cereal as a company by navigating through the menu on your left.
The Idea
We love cereal! Breakfast is the most important meal of the day, and cereal is a great way to start your day on the right foot. While on the phone with a gluten-intolerant friend one evening in 2008, Hajo learned first hand about the limited variety, limited availability, and often mediocre taste of gluten-free cereal. Having realized the challenge of finding a variety of tasty gluten-free cereal, he and a group of students at UNC's Kenan-Flagler Business School came up with a plan to transform the gluten-free breakfast world.
After months of hard work, Custom Choice Cereal came to life in October 2009. We make your taste our priority, which is why we let you design your personal gluten-free cereal with only the ingredients you love!
We understand the very specific needs and concerns of being on a gluten-free diet and decided to address them by
choosing only the highest quality ingredients
focusing exclusively on gluten-free items
testing all of our ingredients for gluten and potential cross-contamination
maintaining a dedicated gluten-free facility
delivering your personal mix conveniently to your doorstep
We strive to make your online mixing process a fun experience while at the same time providing interesting and useful information about each of our ingredients.
Our Thoughts:
We had the opportunity to create our own custom cereal to review and I must say the process is very easy and quick!
First you select your base (the main piece in your cereal) we decided to go with the Cinnamon Granola in our mix since we both love granola and cinnamon.
Next we chose our ingredients, with so many choice we had a hard time agreeing on what to put into our mix but we finally decided on:
Organic Raisins
Natural Almonds
Pecan Pieces
Then you finish off the creation process by naming your new cereal which we decided to call Raisin Nut Crunch!
Here is our finished cereal:
The shipping process was lighting fast! Once we received it we just had to try it and we are very pleased with our results and have really enjoyed it as our breakfast and my husband loves to eat it dry as a snack!
Bottom Line:
We are very pleased with our experience creating our custom cereal and the taste was amazing the flavors really blended together nicely and includes all of our favorite ingredients! We really enjoy getting to eat our very own custom cereal and will be ordering more in the very near future we are running pretty low. I think that this would make a wonderful gift for any occasion and be a perfect addition to any gift basket!
