Tortuga Rum Cakes Review + Giveaway

Looking for a unique Valentine's Day gift that is not only sweet,  but an out of the box kind of gift?  Then you must visit Tortuga Rum.com and check out their selection of remarkably delicious rum cakes,  treats,  and more!  For over twenty-five years TORTUGA has been providing customers with excellent products,  as well as customer service,  and their products continue to provide the same superior quality that they have since the very beginning. Take a look around their site and you will not only find rum cakes,  treats,  and of course their famous rum,  but also coffee and a nice selection of gift items and collectibles,  perfect for Valentine's Day! 

Tortuga Rum provided me with a special Valentine's surprised which included an Original Golden Rum Cake,  along with a sweet box of Chocolate Rum Turtles with Sea Salt.  

I enjoy rum cakes and especially from Tortuga, so I already knew what to expect as I bit down into the delicious cake.  It is like a mini bunt cake,  but super moist and super rich.  The taste of rum is evident not only at first bite,  but actually at the first scent of it.  Matter of fact,  the scent escaped from the box as soon as I opened it up.   These cakes come in 3 different sizes and nine different tasty flavors so you can purchase exactly what your looking for.

I was excited to try the Chocolate Rum Turtles with Sea Salt partially because I had never tried anything like that before and mostly because I am a huge chocoholic.  The logo on the outside of the box read "Tortuga",  which to me means nothing but the best,  and that is exactly what it is!    Inside each box is 12 candies filled with  rum caramel and pecans,  and on the outside is rich milk chocolate sprinkled with just the right amount of sea salt.  They are definitely a gourmet treat with an exotic tropical twist.

BUY IT:  You can purchase the Chocolate Rum Turtles with Sea Salt for $23.95.

Valentine's Day Review- Sweetly You

For a fun review for Valentine's Day I decided to post a review of a really awesome site called Sweetly You!  Sweetly You is a sweet site that offers many different Bath and Body products that can be customized with your favorite Sweetly You scents and themes.  One of my favorite things about their products besides being able to choose your desired scent,   is the fact that you can also include a bag of Jelly Belly's and will be able to choose from over ten different flavors and varieties of Jelly Belly's.  In some cases you can even match the scent of your bath and body products to the flavor of your Jelly Belly's,  making it an easy way to put together your own little customized gift basket of goodies.  Some of the Bath and Body Products that they offer are:  Perfume Bottles,  Dead Sea Bath Salts,  Essential Sugar Scrub,  Moisturizing Bubble Bath,  Foaming Bath Butter and many other relaxing bath and body products!

Sweetly You sent me a Perfume Sampler Set which included 10 different perfume Fragrance samples of my choice.  I spent a while going through their long list of fragrances that included over 50 different scents.   Sweetly You offers everything from food scents to nock offs of famous Brand Names.  I chose a little bit of everything to review.   What is perfect about their products is that because they offer such a wide variety of scents you are sure to find some that you will like and your daughter too!  The Perfume Sampler Set can be purchased for only $9.95.

Here are the following scents that I reviewed along with what I thought about each scent.

1. New Romance-  I thought this was a fun flirty fragrance that smelled rather Fruity.  This would be perfect to wear on a night out with that special someone. 
2. White Ginger and Amber-  This is a somewhat strong smelling scent.  I thought it would be perfect for my mom.  The Amber is noticeable but blends well with the White Ginger.
3. Passion Fire-  To me this scent seemed really spicy!  It is a slightly strong scent.
4. Strawberries and Champagne-  This scent reminds me of a Popular Victoria's Secret Scent!    This is really a romantic scent.  It was very light and fruity.
5. Beautiful- This scent will leave you smelling beautiful while you look it!  This was another strong scented perfume. 
6. Hawaiian Breeze-  Reminds me of a fruity Tropical scent.  It is sure to take your senses straight to the tropics!  I thought this scent would be perfect for warm summer months.
7. Warm Allure-  it is a sweet scent that is perfect for any season.  It actually has a somewhat mild pleasant scent. 
8. Vanilla Macadamia Nut Coffee-  I thought this was an unusual scent different from any other perfume fragrances that I have ever tried!  The Vanilla was somewhat over- rided by the strong nutty scent. 
9. Pomegranate-  This was my overall favorite Scent that Sweetly You has to offer!  It was a very fruity sweet scent!  This scent is perfect for Spring or Summer months but I would wear it during any months! 
10. German Chocolate Cake- This is a definite dessert scent.  I thought it smelled good enough to eat!  It actually did smell allot like a German Chocolate Cake and yes,  "I LOVE German Chocolate Cake"!

I believe I would like some of the scents in Bubble Bath or Lotions instead of Perfume forms.  Although allot of them smelled great as perfumes.  All of Sweetly You perfumes are pure oil fragrances with no ethanol to irritate the skin or alter the scent.  Although they have many different scents I thought of a few more that I would like to see them offer. 

1. Lemon Sugar-  A scent that would remind me of a lemon bar with powdered sugar on top!
2. Amber Chocolate-  A scent that would include notes of Amber along with sweet sensual Chocolate!
3. Sunny Beaches-  A fun fresh scent that would remind me of a sunny day at the ocean. 

 No matter if you are purchasing Sweetly You products as a gift or just to pamper yourself,  they are sure to be happily received!  Relax while soaking in a nice hot  bath of your favorite smelling fragrance or slather on some delicious smelling lotion,  either way you are sure to enjoy Sweetly You products!  They make a perfect gift for Valentine's Day,  Mother's Day,  Birthdays or even just a pampering Spa Day with your daughter!
