My Complete Review of QUITOQUE, the Healthy Seasonal Meal Box

Eating well is essential for feeling good in your own skin! However, when it comes to making a shopping list, it's not uncommon to experience a blank page syndrome… That’s why today, I’d like to introduce you to Quitoque, a meal kit featuring seasonal products sourced from France! I personally had the opportunity to try out this meal kit and I’m excited to share my thoughts on it with you.

Quitoque Baskets in Brief

Please provide the content you would like me to translate.

💖 I Loved It

• The option to choose recipes that suit my dietary needs (vegetarian, pork-free, etc.),
• The simplicity of the recipes,
• The quality of the ingredients,
• The careful packaging to protect my items,
• The fast and reliable delivery,
• The Quitoque app, super handy in the kitchen!

❌ I liked it less

• The price is a bit steep if you're ordering for two,
• The lack of variety in the meals if you order every week,
• No vegan or gluten-free options.

What are Quitoque boxes?

Quitoque falls under the category of general meal boxes. It’s a subscription service that allows you to receive fresh, seasonal produce sourced from France each week, along with recipes for cooking them.

The Quitoque service is very convenient: firstly, it is commitment-free. Secondly, you can adjust the number of meals based on how many people are in your household and the days you need to cook.

The products are fresh, carefully packed in a cardboard box and in airtight packaging. They are pre-portioned, making it easy and quick to cook.

The Quitoque App, a handy tool for cooking 📱

Whether you have a desktop or a laptop, it’s not always ideal to keep it in the kitchen, where it can easily get damaged. Quitoque offers you a solution to benefit from extra tips beyond those provided in the recipe cards, as well as a tool to adjust your measurements based on the number of guests. Simply download the app, which is available on Android and iOS: it’s free and user-friendly, making it a great complement to Quitoque's meal kits!

Is the Quitoque box right for you?

Would you like to enjoy cooking, but aren’t sure where to start? Quotique's baskets offer you a one-stop solution for preparing meals, guiding you with the provided recipes.

This cooking box offers quick and delicious recipes that take less than 30 minutes to prepare. It's perfect for those who may not have the time or energy to go shopping and think of balanced recipes for healthy eating.

✅ Quitoque is just the right fit:

• To young parents,
• To those who are working hard,
• To those who don't enjoy grocery shopping,
• To students who haven't yet mastered cooking,
• To a family wanting to eat healthily with ease.

Can I gift a Quitoque subscription? 🎁

What is the price of the Quitoque offer?

With Quitoque, the price changes based on the number of meals ordered: it is reduced depending on the number of people in your household and the number of dishes purchased each week.

🍴 For a family of 5 ordering 9 meals a week, the lowest price is R82.00 per plate. 5 meals for 3 people gives access to a rate of R110.00 per plate. Feel free to simulate directly on the homepage of the site to get your personalised price! 😉

❌ They were less impressed with the door-to-door marketing of the brand (for those who had this experience), and for some, the starchy foods made from wholemeal flour.

About Trustpilot

👉 Trustpilot reviews are submitted by invitation only, meaning you need to have ordered from Quitoque. The overall rating is 4.2 out of 5, with a large number of highly positive reviews.

💚 Customers generally appreciate the quality of the products, the fact that it is a flexible and non-binding offer, and the simplicity of the recipes. The high-quality packaging is also highly valued.

❌ They criticise the brand for the lack of clarity on the website regarding the different offers, as well as the requirement to cancel 6 days before receiving their order, which can catch some customers off guard.

Can we trust the Quitoque brand?

Quitoque is a company that has been around since 2012 and is based in France. The general terms and conditions of sale are easily accessible on the website and clearly outline the ordering process.

Additionally, the brand takes the time to respond to reviews on Google and Trustpilot, in order to inform consumers and assist them in case of issues. There are numerous positive reviews, and the negative comments are often related to delivery issues that are more dependent on the courier than the brand itself.

Lastly, the customer service can be easily reached by phone and via WhatsApp.

✅ Quitoque appears to be a reliable and trustworthy online shopping company.

My verdict on Quitoque baskets

💙 After trying out several Quitoque boxes, I can confidently say that the quality of the delivered products and the deliciousness of the prepared recipes are impressive. I've truly rediscovered the joy of cooking and the variety of food in my daily life. The prepared meals are well-balanced.

🧡 However, since there are two of us at home and I usually order 7 meals (6 dinners and one meal for Saturday or Sunday lunch), the cost of the meals comes to just over R100 per plate, which I find a bit pricey for everyday dining.

👉 I would recommend Quitoque as a temporary help for a busy period or to regain your confidence in the kitchen, especially if you're looking to get your diet back on track! 😉
