Canadian Natural Mama ~ Product Reviews: Saul Good

That's right.

?

This is not your regular grocery store fruit basket delivery.

? Seriously.

It is so far from it it's not even funny.

Have you ever been the recipient of a gift basket?

Have you ever GIVEN a gift basket?

What's SO cool about Saul Good, is that not only are the products gourmet, but they are all LOCAL to Vancouver and the surrounding BC area. Yep, that's right. LOCAL. So not only are you giving an awesome gift that isn't just going to sit on a shelf, but you are supporting a ton of different local companies all at once.

Saul Good also partners up with organizations that are working towards improving people's lives.

Love that!

" For products that are made here but sourced from other places, our coffee gift baskets being a prime example, we make sure that the entire chain of supply is fair trade. You can be sure that everyone who was involved in our gift baskets are being treated fairly and that we are continually working to make our company, as well as our gift boxes, as environmentally sound as possible."

Why do more companies not have those standards?

There are more than a few "baskets" to choose from:

Which one sounds like something you would be interested in?

Each heading also has a selection of options within, so you are guaranteed to find something in your price range to suit your needs.

I, myself, received a sample box, and it was too beautiful for me to even really SAMPLE at first.

It took me an entire week to even really open anything.

Does that sound lame?
You have to see the quality of these boxes.

The box itself is made of 100% recycled materials and wrapped in plain, brown paper and is not only solid, but ultra-cool, AND re-usable as well.

LOOK, it's VANCOUVER!

How cool is that!?

Ta-da!

Inside.

Like, I said.

I could not even eat anything at first.

The presentation of this gift box was just so amazing.

However, I caved, and the very first thing I tried was the Wendy Boys Vanilla Salt Caramels.

mmmmmm.

Who can resist chocolate anyways!?

?Vanilla, Salted Caramel, Peanut butter and milk chocolate.

Delicious.

And packaged sweetly in the cutest little cardboard box stamped with Saul Good Gift Co.?

(as you can see pictured in the bottom right)

Up next was the Pretzel Nut Mix covered in Caramel Sauce by Wendy Boys.

My family is full of big pretzel lovers.

These pretzels were unlike anything we had tried before.

Sweet, salty AND spicy.


Then...

Milk Chocolate Covered Caramelized Pistachios by Beta 5 Chocolate.

Cannot say that I have EVER seen chocolate covered pistachios before.?

They were a HIT.

A pen was also included, made from 100% recycled plastic packaging, and printed with Saul Good's logo.

Thanks guys! I actually really needed a pen for my bag, and now that I have one, I can brag about your awesome company wherever I go.

Definitely a winning gift basket if I have ever seen one.

Seriously, NOTHING to be thrown out or forgotten.

If this was just a SAMPLING, I would be amazed to see the full-sized baskets.

Like this one...

Have someone visiting from out of town this year? Planning on showing them around town? Why not provide them with an awesome gift box to give them a real taste of Vancouver, too.

?Key to Vancouver.

"There are no platitudes lofty enough to describe the products that make up ?The Key to Vancouver.? Alas, we must rely on clich?? this is the best of the best, not to mention the biggest. It is the cream skimmed off the top of our finest collection of savoury snacks and delicate confections. It is the spare-no-expense-OMG-wow-just-wow gift created to communicate to your colleagues and clients just how incredibly special and important they are to you and your business."

Cannot really say it any better than that.
Vancouver really is filled with an amazing array of beautiful little shops and eateries.
This gift box, is just a sampling of what our beautiful city has to offer.
Really, it would be impossible to fit EVERYTHING in, but Saul sure has given it his best effort and I am truly impressed.

?What about:

?When I had an office job, I wish that we would have had snacks like THESE in our lunchroom.

Yummm!!! What a great gift to give someone with a new job, or promotion.

New office, new Saul Good box. Yep. The two really do go hand in hand. The best thing about these snacks, is that you know that they are quality. All items have had to pass Saul Good's strict guidelines and rules in order to even be included.?

Snacks that you can feel good about in this day in age, are snacks that are GOOD with me!?

No need to worry about over processed JUNK here.

Saul Good not only offers food incorporated boxes but also really cool options PERFECT for real estate agents, or for friends/family that have just moved.

?Now those are some amazing products.

? I just love the little extras and care that goes into hand selecting each item and packaging each SO carefully and creatively.?

The attention to detail is amazing.

You can tell that each box is packaged with care, and love by someone that really cares about what they do, and what their company stands for.

Every filler is 100% recycled, from the beautiful paper shreddings, to the cardboard boxes themselves, to the brown paper the whole thing is wrapped in.

I never thought 100% recycled could look so GOOD.
