Product Review: Dr. De Lish Gluten Free Ginger Snaps

I can’t resist starting this review by saying how cool the name Dr. De Lish is. It brings to my mind the old school names that famous people would use: Dr. Funkenstein, Dr. Love... You get my point. I do realize that the name, however cool it may be, has no bearing on the taste of a product. So, I suppose I will move on now and tell you what you really want to know :)

I really liked these gluten free cookies. That being said, I’m not sure they are for everyone. Dr. De Lish Gluten Free Ginger Snaps are about the spiciest ginger snaps I have ever eaten. They actually make your tongue tingle. There is just enough sweetness to balance out the spice, leaving you with a fantastic aftertaste of heat and sweet.

This amount of spice in a cookie is definitely a personal preference thing. I tried them at a family function and the kids in the room did not share my good opinion. Funny enough, though, their complaints that the cookies were too “hot” didn’t stop them from coming back for more.

I really enjoyed the texture as well. The cookies are crispy, but not hard. There was a bit of chewiness to them that kept them from being dry. There is a coating of spiced sugar on each cookie that compliments the texture well.

The cookies themselves are a good size and there are a lot of them in the package. This becomes an even bigger bonus when you take into account that the package is re-sealable so the cookies don’t go instantly stale.

Overall, I recommend Dr. De Lish Gluten Free Ginger Snaps to anyone who likes their snacks to pack a punch.
