The Review
I began my Dorset Cereals journey with their simply delicious muesli. This vegan-approved cereal contains raisins and sultanas, sunflower seeds, dates, brazil nuts and roasted hazelnuts with multi-grain flakes. What I noticed though was how long it took for me to chomp through those grains. I eat muesli all the time but this was the first time it was a workout!
Definitely less sweet than other muesli I have eaten but I could tell the quality of every element in my bowl was super-high.
The simply nutty muesli truly does contain a ton of nuts, along with dates and sunflower seeds.
The super cranberry, cherry and almond muesli definitely had a generous amount of cranberries and flame raisins but the cherries were totally of lost on me. I do not remember them being there.
My least favourite is their super high fibre muesli. All of the other cereals balanced the flakes, nuts and dried fruit perfectly but this one… I hardly noticed the coconut and at the end had these giant flame raisins at the bottom of my bowl that were challenging to eat on their own.
My absolutely favourite was their honey granola. I think they played around to transform oats, sunflower seeds, flaked almonds, rye flakes, pecans and pumpkin seeds gently baked in honey with just a hint of vanilla from muesli to crunchy granola. Definitely healthier than most granolas out there, I would eat this every morning and not feel guilty at all. And my tummy would be very happy.
Dorset Cereals produce a pure high quality cereal that true “granola” or should I say “muesli” kids will adore. They contain whole grains, no preservatives, naturally occurring sugar and are UK Vegetarian Society approved.
The company is from an English village in the ancient country of Dorset, just outside the historic town of Dorchester. They really do not scrimp when it comes to nuts, seeds and fruit. It is clear that they truly do source out the best of the best from around the globe to deliver a high quality cereal “full of healthy goodness.”
These cereals are not for the sweet-toothed. They are so “pure” that they might not be sweet enough for many foodies out there but if you are trying to improve your diet and want the highest quality food for breakfast, this is the cereal for you. For that customer, I give this product five out of five wooden spoons.
Personally, I need a little more sweetness, just a touch. Some were challenging for me to eat, the whole grains took a long time to break down and I liked some cereals more than others. As a result, I give Dorset Cereals four out of five wooden spoons.
Good luck everyone!

Hi Suzie!
I am a total health nut! haha This giveaway is perfect for me, since I have actually been trying to drastically cut back on added sugar in my diet. In fact, for that reason, I’ve been eating fresh fruit (apples, oranges, berries) topped with non-fat plain greek yogurt and Love Grown granola for breakfast.
I’ve seen the Dorset Cereals in my local grocery store and have ALWAYS wanted to try them, but they are so expensive and almost never go on sale, so this is a perfect opportunity!
Thanks!
Meg 🙂

Oh wow, I love Dorset – what a great giveaway!
I’m on my way to being a health nut… twenty pounds down and a whack more to go… but hey, I’ve (**fingers crossed**) kicked cancer to the curb so I can’t complain!
This Dorset basket would be absolutely perfect for my upcoming cleanse/Low Iodine Diet in preparation for my Radioactive Iodine Treatment this August — no added salt?? That means no added Iodine! Love it!
Hugs!

I am a health nut.
I’m also a bit frugal.
It’s a problem. I love the Dorset cereals (they taste SO good!), but I go nuts over the price! So the solution is, we mix a small handful of the Dorset cereal we love into a bowl of yogurt. YUM!
The cereal lasts a lot longer that way. If I left my hubby to his own devices, a box of Dorset would last him about 4-5 breakfasts and that’s it. He is a big eater!
Thanks for the chance to win this gorgeous basket of yummy, good for us stuff!

I am a total health nut!!! Well, I try anyway 😉 I have been consistent with an eat-clean diet for a few months now… No refined sugar, no additives, nothing processed. I have only found Dorset cereal in one flavor at my local supermarket and it would be fantastic to try the others!

Hey Suzie,
I am a complete health nut usually 😉 Since getting pregnant in November, it’s been a challange. However our baby is due mid July, which means I can start my healthy eating again, and am very excited about it. So this would be the perfect gift for me to kick off my healthy eating with my new born baby, and will make quick easy breakfasts for this first time mom!

I’m a health nut and even joined a gym yesterday (stop laughing!!!)
I eat a lot of grains – quinoa, barley, wheat berries, etc and would love a healthy, crunchy cereal that doesn’t taste like the box it came in 🙂

I’m a no-salt nut. It’s hard to find things (even cereal) that are low or no sodium. I’m super sensitive now to things tasting too salty. I’ll be on the look out to buy some of this cereal. Will be great to give to my 16 month old as well.
I’m still working on becoming a health nut, one meal and one walk at a time 🙂

Hi, Suzie~~
I am a confirmed health nut—since 1973—just ask my longsuffering kids! (Some of them actually eat the way I taught them as children.) I’ve never seen these cereals but they look and sound scrumptious, and I would love to try them. They would be a nice change from my usual breakfast of 0% Greek yogurt, ground flax seeds, cinnamon, Stevia, and blueberries.
Keep up the good work, Suzie! ;-D
