I was really excited when I was chosen to participate in a DOLE Fruit Crisps party for Mom Central. I love to throw a party and tell my friends about new products. I thought it would be fun to get together with some of my other Mom friends and have an Easter egg hunt for the kids, while the Mom’s got a chance to visit and try new DOLE Fruit Crisps. I have already published about the Easter bunny hats, bird nest treats, and the carrot egg planters from the Easter egg hunt aspect of the party and now I’m excited to share with you the whole reason we got together in the first place.

DOLE Fruit Crisps are a new product from Dole. They have fruit on the bottom and some crunchy oat topping to mix in. They can be served warm or cold. When you don’t have time to prepare a mid-day snack or an after dinner dessert, DOLE Fruit Crisps are a quick fix to satisfy your cravings. Everyone really enjoyed the DOLE Fruit Crisps. That included the Moms, kids, and my husband. My personal favorite was the Apple Cinnamon. It reminded me so much of apple pie, especially when it was all warmed up. Yummy!

The great news is that the DOLE Fruit Crisps are only around 160 calories for each cup. It’s a  really great pick-me up snack. As part of the party, I received some tip sheets for busy women. It has some great tips like buying a sharpie that matches your nail polish so you can do some quick fixes for chipped nails.

Another great tip was to keep some peach juice and vanilla on hand so you can make a Peach Crisptini Mocktail when you have guests drop by. A Peach Crisptini is simply peach juice with a splash of vanilla. I made up a big pitcher and served that at the party too. Peach flavor isn’t my personal favorite, but lots of people really loved it. My husband equated it to drinking the peach liquid out of homemade canned peaches. To him, that is just about the best thing ever.

Here are some pictures of the fun we had at the party. You’ll have to excuse my cheeseball friends. Get a camera out and they are sure to ham it up. We had such a wonderful time at the party. The kids played in the grass and the adults got to sit around and visit. I think we partied for about 3 hours between all the activities!

Please head on over to Dole to find out more about DOLE Fruit Crisps. They got at least 10 thumbs up from all my party guests.

I wrote this review while participating in a campaign for Mom Central Consulting on behalf of Dole. I received product samples to facilitate my party and review, and a promotional item to thank me for participating.
