    Tastes like my moms homemade cup cakes, so yummy !!!

    These cupcakes are so yummy, I have tasted them with my family and everyone loved them !!! They brought me to my childhood since they were tasting just like my moms cupcakes with a healthy touch. I could taste the fibre and fruit very nicely. It is not to sweet just like the way I like, it is soft and moist, the right size for a portion. I could definitely think this as a snack or part of my morning breakfast with a nice healthy shake, would definitely look for it in the healthy muffin aisle and would recommend it to my friends and family.

    Better Than Expected Though $$$$$$

    When I received my coupons for this product I was expecting a DRY, CRUMBLY and Relatively TASTELESS product, based on past experiences with mass produced muffins. Given that they are a whole grain muffin I was DELICIOUSLY SURPRISED!! They were moist and not mealy or crumbly. There are chunks of blueberries and cranberries throughout the muffin. The only thing that would keep me from purchasing these on a more regular basis is the cost. $4.99 for 4 muffins is a little too much for my taste.
    All in All though IF they were in sale or a lower price point I would definitely purchase these on a regular basis.

    If you microwave it for a few seconds, it's good.

    These muffins, at first taste, we're just ok: nothing special. They tasted ok, but are very crumbly and fell apart, which was frustrating. The side of the box mentions, in small print, to microwave it for 10 seconds for a just out of the oven baked taste. I'm glad I noticed it because boring muffins became pretty good! After microwaving, the taste of blueberries and cranberries became enhanced and it was a nice treat! They are 280 calories each, which I find a bit high for a snack but decent for a muffin. Sugar is kind of high at 17g, but with 5 grams of fibre and 5 grams of protein, it makes up for it. I would probably try again, however, my kids were not fans.

    Maybe in a different flavour?

    Please note that I have received this product for free as part of the ChickAdvisor Product Review Club.

    I was asked to review the Good & Simple Fruit + Fibre Muffins. In this specific case, the "fruit" part is made up of blueberries and cranberries which sounded very good on paper. Unfortunately, I didn't think that the taste was up to par. Let's just say that the "fibre" flavour is extremely present despite the content of the muffin not even being very high in fibre either at 5 g per muffin. I have to say I was actually shocked to read the ingredients as well as the nutritional information: there is not much good nor simple about it. Each muffin contains 13 g of fat. And I don't care for the way the company listed the good ingredients in bold and the not so good in regular characters, it kind of makes you wonder if they think most customers are too dumb to read the entire list and will be satisfied with what is in bold. I have to say, I almost found this to be a bit condescending.

    What I did like is that every muffin is individually wrapped which keeps freshness sealed and is convenient for lunches. Despite the freshness being sealed, however, the muffins were pretty dry and crumbly.

    I see that the reviews for other flavours seem better than for this one, but I personally would not bother with them again, given there are so many healthier and tastier options available, but it might just be my taste!

    Moist & Yummy

    These days I'm all about finding wholesome products. I usually avoid muffins because I find them overly sweet. I must say that this muffin is yummy, and it had a good balance of sweet and fruitiness. It's very filling, felt like I had a mini meal. This will make for a good snack, especially late afternoon when lunch is wearing off. I got to try this muffin for free but would definitely purchase in the future.

    Moist and delicious

    I really enjoyed eating these muffins. They were moist and very flavourful. The blueberries inside tasted very fresh and wholesome. There was no artificial taste or aftertaste. The texture was nice and light, yet the muffins were very filling (probably due to the added fibre, which was a nice plus for me). I enjoyed having these at breakfast or a quick snack. I love that they were individually packed and sealed, it helped to keep them nice and fresh. I highly recommend these and look forward to purchasing them in the future.

    I #GotItFree from ChickAdvisor in exchange for an honest review.

    Homemade muffins, no baking required

    Thank you @chickadvisor for chosing to try these #gotitfree. These fruit and fibre muffins are so delicious and full of cranberry and blueberries. Lower in fat and calories than coffee shop baked goods. I love how convenient they are. Individually wrapped - so it is grab and go! Highly recommended!

    Fruit and Fiber muffins are not that good value for the money, but I like that they are individually wrapped and no preservatives or artificial flavors. They taste was good but I would have put just a hint more of sugar. Overall I like that there is real fruit in those muffins, I would buy them again but a different flavor. .

    perfect breakfast addition

    I #gotforfree from Good and simple and chick advisor for the fruit and fibre muffins and loved them. I truly enjoyed the taste but did find that they were very fibre tasting (bran flavour almost). It was a great addition to my breakfast routine and my 2 year old even ate them with me, he is picky with his muffins. I could see it becoming a part of my morning routine. I have recommended them to a friend already who saw me eating them, they said they may try themselves as well.

    Great tasting muffin but not my price point

    The muffin did taste great but to pay $4.55 for 4 muffins is not great value for me. In most muffin packages, you receive 6. If price is not a concern, I would recommend the muffin based on taste. The combination of blueberries and cranberries was delicious. I do like that they are individually packaged.
