Element Snacks contacted us a while back and offered some free vegan snackage for review. Here it is. First off, you must know that I love snacks. Usually, I eat fruits (dried or fresh), nuts, and these were really all my options.
Here is what you need to know about Element: the products are made in Italy (fancy, right?), they taste like a snack bar, but without the nasty preservatives and loads of calories.
So, let’s talk about the vegan options you have with Element. There are dark chocolate rice cakes, and dark chocolate corn cakes. I am not a big fan of dark chocolate, but these products surprised me a lot because the chocolate tasted delicious. They were also tasty, not bland or overpowered by the chocolate-y flavor. What is nice is that you can taste the corn and the rice cakes underneath the chocolate. Personally, I started off preferring the corn cakes, but then I fell in love with both.
Okay, they’re tasty, but are they healthy? Sure! I got a packet of mini corn cakes and six of them (very filling) were only 120 calories. One of the larger, regular sized cakes is only 80 calories. And, believe me when I say that these cakes are filling. They taste good, but they are low in calories. There are no GMO’s, gluten free, and none of the other bad stuff you can imagine.
Each package comes with six cakes, too, so you get a nice bargain and a pretty good deal. They’re tasty; they’re healthy, and they are vegan! Lovely, lovely products. Give them a try!
