Aloha everyone!
Before I made the plunge into going raw I had the delicious opportunity to try Chia Chicks cookies! Misty and Marija were so sweet and sent me four different cookies to try, let's just say they didn't last very long. Yum!
"The Chia Chicks met while working for a large corporate immigration firm in the New York City area. The two quickly became friends and soon discovered that their paths had crossed for a reason other than doing paralegal work together! The Chia Chicks had a common interest in nutrition. They both felt that there was a demand for healthy snack options in a market where so many people are affected by specific, and sometimes, life-threatening, dietary needs.That is the main reason they decided to create their fabulous Chocolate Chia'p Cookies. The Chia Chicks wholeheartedly feel that there is a need for nutritious, allergy-conscious snacks that are made from high quality, all natural ingredients and actually taste good too. The Chia Chicks motto is "snack food should not to be synonymous with junk food".As small business owners, they feel there is a fine line between personal success and running a successful business, and their heart and soul is completely ingrained in what they do. This is why they can honestly say that their cookies are “baked with love and chia seeds”!Just knowing that their products are reaching those who need them, specifically, knowing that children with food allergies can have a snack without having to feel fear, embarrassment or isolation, and instead just enjoy being a kid... That’s the true Chia Chicks’ mission and that is the pinnacle of success for them." -http://chiachicksnyc.com/about.php
The girls sent me samples of their "Chocolate Chia'p Cookies", "Double Chocolate Chia'p Cookies", "Coconut Double Chocolate Chia'p Cookies", and "Oatmeal Raisin Chia Cookies".
The cookies arrived in the cutest packaging.
Each individual package held three cookies.
Seriously... how adorable?! Just wait till you see what's inside!
Super yummy cookies! I was so impressed with how delicious, soft, ooey and gooey these cookies were.
1. Chocolate Chiap
These cookies taste just like momma's! They're a perfect example of the classic chocolate chip cookie but with a healthier twist. They're crunchy but soft, chocolately and sweet, and they melt in your mouth.
2. Double Chocolate Chiap
Holy chocolate! These are for my fellow chocolate lovers. These cookies remind me of a freshly baked chocolate brownie. Crumble these babies on top of some soy ice cream and you'll be on cloud nine!
3. Coconut Double Chocolate Chiap
Put the chocolate in the coconut and eat it all up. Yummy! Coconut is my favorite food, smell, flavor, everything. So these cookies hit the spot. They're a little more savory than the Double Chocolate Chiap and have a little more crunch.
4. Oatmeal Raisin Chia
My favorite of the four! I could have eaten a whole box filled with these little delights. They're the softest of the four, have juicy raisins, and taste like the best warm bowl of oatmeal. They have a hint of cinnamon and vanilla and turn into butter in your mouth. I rate these cookies 10 stars!
All in all Chia Chicks rock! They make delicious vegan and gluten free cookies that even non vegans would love. Go check out they're website and order some of these delicious cookies at http://chiachicksnyc.com/ and follow them on twitter! @chia_chicks
