Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Wine Country Brenda Walton Toscano 7-Tiered Gift TowerCustomer Review: Nice Gift Summary: 4 Stars
The boxes in this tower are not the usual gift boxes that most of these towers contain. They are made of a thick paperboard and finished with a shiny lacqeur. They are definitely designed to be used for anything once emptied of their treats. The vanilla milk caramels are soft and buttery tasting, very yummy. My only caveat is that I wished there were more than the one Tiramisu and the two Baronie Belgian chocolates (chocolate crunch and cherry truffle), and less of the hard candy. I was not wowed over by the spice cookies either, I would have preferred biscotti or amaretto, spice cookies and hard candy are a dime-a-dozen. The macadamia-nut popcorn reminds me of Screaming Yellow Zonkers, yellow glazed with pieces of roasted macadamias. Yummy! While a pretty nice gift overall, I would not have paid original price for it. Buy it on sale. It will keep for Valentines and birthdays, everything is securely wrapped and the overall tower is in a clear cellophane bag topped with a pretty bow.
Description of Wine Country Brenda Walton Toscano 7-Tiered Gift TowerThis beautiful seven-tier tower of treats is a tasteful spin on a Brenda Walton masterpiece. This lovely tower of treats is packaged so beautifully, all the goodies inside will seem like an extra bonus! Recipients of this tasty gift will love opening each gorgeous box to find seven individual surprises. The tiniest box--an adorable 2-1/2 by 1-3/4 by 1-1/2 inches--holds just one little candy, a delectable tiramisu-flavored truffle, made in Italy. Second from the top are two Baronie truffles--one cherry and one milk-chocolate crisp. Working down the tower bite by bite will uncover 8 Pirouline cookies, 5 ounces of blue raspberry hard candies, 7 ounces of chewy vanilla caramels, 7 ounces of crispy ginger-spice cookies, and 7 ounces of macadamia-nut caramel corn. The largest box measures 9 by 5 by 2-1/2 inches, and when all boxes are stacked together, the tower is 14 inches tall. All the boxes are made of sturdy, laminated, floral and fruit motif cardboard, with lids of complimentary purple and silver. Once all the treats have been devoured, the boxes make wonderful keepsakes to fill with household treasures. --Maile Bohlmann
