From the Eyes of a Parent:thumb_4209284581

It’s great that this mix makes more than one cake and comes in a re-sealable bag. I love that I can make so many different types of cakes with this one mix and that they are all gluten-free for my gluten-sensitive daughter! I’ve finally found a gluten-free cake mix that my whole family can enjoy!

Product Review: Just in Time Gourmet – Caramel Apple Cheesecake https://www.thecreativekitchen.com/product-review-just-time-gourmet/ https://www.thecreativekitchen.com/product-review-just-time-gourmet/#respond Fri, 03 Oct 2014 09:30:18 +0000 http://www.thecreativekitchen.com/?p=8488 Parent Picked Kid Approved logo

Just in Time Gourmet is just in time to save dessert on a busy school night or a child’s weekend birthday party. They plan dinner and dessert for you! Just in Time Gourmet, owned by PheonixFood, creates dry mix food products made from quality ingredients. Each mix contains the mix itself, a recipe on the back of the box that outlines any extra ingredients needed, and step by step instructions on putting the dish together. We love Just in Time Gourmet because they understand that even though life gets busy, a great meal and an even better dessert should be easy AND tasty. Their Caramel Apple Cheesecake is our favorite and is perfect for a kid’s birthday party or to make with your kids any day of the week!

 

From the Mouth of a Kid:

The caramel is sweet and sticky. The cake even tastes my favorite fruit: apples! I always ask mom for a second piece!

From the Eyes of a Parent:

Just in Time Gourmet Caramel Apple Cheesecake is a new family favorite in my house. I make it for all of our family gatherings—it’s a crowd favorite on Thanksgiving and my kids’ birthday parties! It’s even great for a special treat during weeknights. Every time I make it, my kids get in the kitchen and help me pour and stir the mix into a delicious dessert. It’s so easy to make—we only have to follow the recipe, adding a few extra ingredients. I also love the Caramel Apple Cheesecake mix because it is not overly sweet, but is sweet enough to ease my kids’ (and my) dessert craving. Plus, it has a fresh apple flavor. Its few ingredients let me know what’s in the mix and what’s going in my family’s tummies!
