I received a coupon for the Becel plant based salted brick for free from Family Rate for review purposes. I decided to put this brick to the ultimate test by baking up a batch of chocolate chip cookies, which are usually made with butter. I usually find that when using a butter alternative, this chocolate chip dough usually comes out more cakey and less like a cookie. However after baking with the plant based salted brick, the cookies came out so melted, thin and chewy that it could easily fool anyone into thinking it was actually made with butter. I highly recommend this as a 1 for 1 replacement for butter in all of your baking needs. -

I received a coupon to redeem a becel plant based brick (salted or unsalted) from chickadvisor for review purposes.
I prefer unsalted for baked goods so that you can control the flavour and outcome of the process. To be honest when I first heard about this product I knew I wanted to try it immediately. My household is vegan so I am always looking for an affordable butter substitute for baked goods. I've tried other brands before but they don't work the same way as the becel one does.
Firstly, it actually feels and looks like real butter. When you leave it in the countertop to soften for a few hours you can easily cream it for your baking needs.
Secondly it melts and bakes like butter. The first thing I wanted to test this stick with is chocolate chip cookies. Depending on the quality of the fat being used, sometimes the cookies don't come out flattened or chewy or the right consistency in general. This truly passed the test and have me cookies that could pass as non-vegan (check out my photo!)
The only thing negative I have to say is that it does use palm oil and since we know that sourcing palm oil is very detrimental to the environment, I would be purchasing this less as to not increase demand

I received this product for free from Chickadvisor for review. I love how high end this cream looks. The jar is much like other high end creams. When you open it there is also a little plastic lid which protects the cream from spilling into the lid. I love that this is really thick and creamy but not greasy. I use this as a night cream which is great because it makes my face feel bright in the morning. -

I got this for free from Chickadvisor for review. I love serums and how it makes my skin feel. I used this before applying the moisturizer and the spf protector. I love that the serum is actually pretty thick, thicker than most serums in used to. However it went on very smoothly and without residue or making my hands feel sticks. -

I received this from Chickadvisor for free for review. Firstly I'd like to say that I love how there is spf in this. It's SPF 30 which is stronger than most other skincare products with SPF. This is most important for me in the spring and summer to use as a day cream so I definitely look forward to that. I also like that despite it having spf in the formula, the cream itself was very light and not greasy. I highly recommend this for a day cream. -

I got this product for free from Chickadvisor for review. I immediately noticed that the scent was very light and fresh which really works with the name. I also liked how the scrubs were not too aggressive and very mild. It was easy to use and easy to wash off. I did notice a difference in my skin but at the same time it might be because spring is right around the corner. Either way it made my skin feel very fresh -

I am always on the look out for natural deodorants that work - often times they fail at protecting me during my workouts. I received the Lavender and Sage from Chickadvisor to review. I love the scent of the smell, when I first applied it my husband actually thought i was a new essential oil that i was using. I also liked that i only needed to apply it in the morning before going to work and it was still effective 8 hours for my work out. The only thing i do have to say is that i don't really like how when I apply it, it does sort leave a thick residue but after rubbing it over with the applicator it works like a charm. I highly recommend this product for anyone looking to switch over to more natural products -

I don't know what I was expecting because usually Korean BBq is just BBQ meat in some sort of soy marinade. I expected it to be spicy which it isn't at all. It taste good when cooked with tofu. Be sure to make it sauce so you can pour it over veggies and rice for a full meal.

I received this seasoning from Chickadvisor for free for review purposes. When I saw it I knew right away that I wanted to make a sushi bowl recipe. The packet doesn't seem like much but a little goes a long way. I was able to use only 1 tbsp of the seasoning to make a full week of lunches. It's spicy and peppery and so flavourful. I paired it with tofu but I could see it being delicious on anything even just rice. -

I received samples of this in small satchets. A little goes a long way! This cream is super thick and creamy. It does not leave any greasy residue like other thick creams and makes your face and hands feel super soft. I also really like how the scent is fresh and smells almost like herbs. Would be purchasing full sized in the future -
