Alessi Taste of Italy Holiday Variety Gift Box, Sampler of Culturally Inspired Soups, Risottos, Farros and Premium Bread Sticks

I bought this box to use as part of my Christmas gifts to my woman's group. These are a lovely assortment of mixes, most with "clean" simple ingredients that I'm sure my ladies will love. My daughter claimed the breads ticks for her work lunches and really enjoys them. The price was quite reasonable for the quality of food. I'm quite happy with this box.

These soups are so easy to prepare and healthy too.Each serving has 8 grams of protein. The taste is delicious and comforting, like a warm cozy hug from grandma. I sent this to my adult daughter who lives an hour away when she was sick. I knew she would appreciate having a hot bowl of soup that was quick and easy to fix. I think these are very practical gifts for anyone. I like having them on hand as well. I love pairing mine with toasted sour dough bread. Our dogs love getting a spoonful as a snack on a cold day.

Love this brand, wife didn;t like a couple, but I loved each one. Only negative is the bread sticks were nearly all broken but not taking a star off for something that is to be expected, the bits were just as tasty!

Variety of easy to make italian food that is an authenticly italian

Gave as Christmas presents. Was well received and delicious.

I got this for myself and my two sisters for Christmas. I’m going to split up the pouches among us. From what I’ve eaten so far, they are absolutely delicious. However one thing. The soups are deceptive. I tried the white bean and split pea soups, and they are just broth, no beans or peas in them even though the pictures on the fronts of the pouches showed bowls of soup with the beans and peas in them. The broths were very flavorful, but I was expecting more than just broth, which is why I gave this four stars instead of five.

Very surprised at the excellent quality of this product. I'm planning to send it for gifts

I didn't like most of the flavors in this, especially the saffron risotto. The cheese flavors didn't have any flavor at all (quite disappointing), and the soups were bland. I expected some delicious flavors but ended up disappointed. I won't purchase this again. The only thing I enjoyed was the breadsticks, and that's not saying much because they lacked flavor as well.
