Vitalicious Deep Chocolate Vitatops: Giveaway!

April 18, 2010 By admin 233 Comments

One of the best things for my diet has been Vitalicious VitaTops! At only one Weight Watchers Point, I can indulge my late night chocolate craving without cheating on my daily calories. The worst part about them? They only come in boxes of four…until NOW! For the next 4 weeks, the Deep Chocolate VitaTops are available in boxes of 12 which will keep me from having to run to the grocery store every week! If you have never had these little morsels of heaven, here is a little bit of info from the press release:

“Nothing can start the day off WORSE than a huge, fat-laden muffin with your morning cup of coffee. Cutting the fat and calories while packing in the flavor, Vitalicious Deep Chocolate VitaTops — convenient, healthy and delicious 100-calorie muffin tops — are a healthy way to indulge.

With no preservatives or artificial ingredients of any kind, Deep Chocolate VitaTops provide all the flavor of freshly baked muffins without all of the sugar and fat. Only 100 calories, VitaTops contain 6g of fiber; 3g of protein; 8g of whole grains; and only 1.5g of unsaturated fat per 2 oz serving. And they are addictingly good.”

These treats are kept frozen and are so delicious when you heat them in the microwave. Want to know my special secret for an even better snack? Put a scoop of Fat Free Vanilla Yogurt on top of the heated VitaTop for an a la mode experience! YUM!

The muffin tops and brownies from Vitalicious Foods Inc. will satisfy my cravings for something sweet before bedtime and help me stay on my diet without sacrificing dessert!

One Vitalicious SuperSampler Pack which includes an assortment of 100 calorie natural muffin tops and brownies. The sampler pack includes the following varities:

4 Low Fat Deep & Velvety VitaBrownies, 2 Low Fat Chocolate Mint VitaTops, 2 Low Fat Banana Nut VitaTops, 2 Low Fat Double Chocolate Dream VitaTops, 2 Low Fat Deep Chocolate VitaTops, 2 Low Fat Fudgy Peanut Butter Chip VitaTops, 2 Low Fat Golden Corn VitaTops, 2 Low Fat CranBran VitaTops, 2 Low Fat AppleBerry VitaTops, 2 Low Fat MultiBran VitaTops, and 2 Low Fat BlueBran VitaTops. About Vitalicious Foods Inc.:

First to market with 100-calorie servings, Vitalicious continues to lead the way with a holistic approach that maximizes satisfaction with minimum calories.

It is no secret that I love chocolate in just about any form. Chocolate chips, chocolate cake, chocolate cookies, chocolate milk….I love it ALL. So, when I decided to join Weight Watchers this past September, the thought of giving up my nightly chocolate was almost overwhelming. But after seeking the advice of a friend who had recently lost weight, and visiting the incredible website, Hungry Girl, I discovered Vitatops. They certainly LOOKED yummy, but at just 100 calories, 5 g of fiber, less than 1.5 g of fat, no preservatives, no artificial sweeteners and 15 vitamins and minerals, they certainly couldn’t TASTE yummy, right?

WRONG! These things are like a little slice of heaven wrapped up in a low calorie, good for you package! At just 1 Weight Watchers Point per Vitatop, they are the PERFECT nighttime snack. Simply remove one from the freezer, toast or microwave and eat! The size of the Vitatop and the quantity of fiber in each snack will leave you feeling full and satisfied. Since I am a chocoholic, my favorite variety is the Deep Chocolate Vitatop followed by the Double Chocolate Dream. However, I did share my sampler pack with a few friends and they loved the CranBran Vitatop as well.

Need a little something extra? Check out the delicious recipes including a Double Trouble Chocolate Trifle!

Vitalicious Foods Inc. is my new best friend. Seriously. Anybody who can make chocolate good for me and “legal” on my diet is the best.company.ever! I absolutely love the SuperSampler Pack because I got the opportunity to try several varieties and select my favorites before committing to one muffin top exclusively. Next time, I would love to purchase the Chocolate SuperSampler! Since doing this review, I have found the Vitatops sold locally at Winn Dixie for a new low price! I am stocking up!

Check out the Vitalicious Holiday Promotion where if you buy $99 worth of products from the Vitalicious website, you will receive a FREE 4 pack of MultiBran Vitatops!
