New Special K Granola #Review And #Giveaway

New Special K Granola 
Review And Giveaway!


Slimmers go fruit and nuts for the new Special K Granola.

Getting into shape can be tough – there are times when you crave a delicious treat but you still want to feel good about your choice. Now women can enjoy more of the taste they love at breakfast thanks to Special K which has launched its first-ever granola for slimmers.

Women are set to go fruit and nuts for new Special K Granola with its delicious five grain recipe made from Oats, Barley, Wheat, Spelt, and Rye. 

It’s 30 per cent less fat than most other granolas too. It's fortified with 6 B vitamins and iron and will be available in two juicy varieties: Raisins & Red Apples; and Cranberry, Pumpkin Seeds & Almonds - bursting with real fruit and nut inclusions.

Special K Granola will be in all major supermarkets from February 2014, with a RRP of £2.99 for a 370g bag. This is one tasty bag that should be on everyone’s shopping list in 2014.


I'm definitely a cereal kind of girl but I'd never thought of trying Granola before, until now that is. With two flavours to try, I was looking forward to seeing which I would like the best. The Raisins & Red Apples was delicious, the Red apples gave it a slightly sweet taste whilst the raisins added some yummy, chewy texture. The Cranberry, Pumpkin Seeds & Almonds one was my favourite though as I'm a huge nut fan and these definitely didn't let me down.

Both bags are full of goodies and taste great. I'd be happy to swap my bowl of usual cereal every now and again for a bowl of these. A bowl of Granola tasted great and filled my tummy up until lunch time which was even greater. There's nothing worse than feeling hungry straight after you've just eaten you're breakfast and then have to wait and struggle until lunch.

The Giveaway : Would you like to win 2 cases of the new Special K Granola? That's 2 whole cases - One of each of the two new flavours! Simple use the RaffleCopter form below:

    I am terrible at forgetting to have breakfast
    Mostly it's nothing :-(

    If I do remember then it's toast or a toasted muffin or crumpet with a bit of butter on
