I was delighted to be selected to take part in the Burtons Biscuits Mums Say Trial. As a mom of 3boys, I am constantly restocking the larder and trying to come up with quick snack ideas. I was really impressed with the Under 100 Cal Club range from Burton's. As it is, my boys just love Maryland Cookies and I regard them as the original choc chip cookie - so much better than other brands that really just taste of sugar. To know that the sugar content has been reduced and that wholegrain oats have been introduced is brilliant. All moms try so hard to limit the sugary snacks and a tasty treat that you know is under 100 calories really helps in this battle.
To be honest I had not heard of the Under 100 Cal Club prior to this trial. However having sampled all the products I will certainly be adding them to the shopping list. My kids are big into athletics and I am always looking for a pre run snack that is quick, light and not full of sugar. The Maryland Oaty Cookie Bars really tick this box and for this reason were a favourite in our house.
I also loved the Jammie Dodgers Jam and Yoghurt Snacks - most especially because they are individually packed and easy to fire into the kids lunchboxes. This just makes the lunchbox prep easier and I am happy knowing their Friday treat is fresh and intact. The Maryland Minis Choc Chip bags are great and very handy to have in my bag or in the car for an unexpected car journey. Keeps everyone happy at once - and me sane! I will definitely be recommending this range to my friends and families.

Thanks very much for allowing us test the new Under 100 Cal Club range from Burtons Biscuits - we loved them.
I'm very conscious of what the kids are eating and try to ensure there is a balance of healthy wholesome food while still giving them the occasional treat - you have to be realistic about these things, and the reality is kids want/like treats. But I do worry about sugar and was very happy to see that there is a 20% reduction in sugar and calories in these biscuits. The kids LOVED the chocolate chip cookies - they were definitely a favourite.
And I loved how they were mini portion packs so everybody knows where they stand - both the kids and me.
This new range means I can include them in the shop knowing exactly what I'm getting and what I'm giving the kids. They are a great addition to our weekly food shop, I will happily buy them again would have no problem recommending them.

Absolutely loved taking part in this trial. Love Maryland biscuits - they are often in the trolley, but as I'm a creature of habit I had only been very familiar with the choc chip cookies (which are yum). I hadn't been aware of the new lower cal / lower sugar selection, but I'm thrilled to see it. A great idea, and very welcome for mums struggling to find the right snack for kids.

The kids were delighted, and I was happy to have something to give them as a snack / treat that wasn't a huge bar. The fact that they are small individual packs, just the right size for kids, makes them a great addition to treat Friday lunch boxes, or sometimes after school when they often come out starving. Great to have these on hand.
Will buy again. Would absolutely recommed.

We had a brilliant time testing the Under 100 Cal Club range! I hadn't heard of it before seeing it here on MummyPages, but we know the Maryland biscuits. I was really happy with this range as I like to control what the kids have in relation to treats and snacks. This range is great, it's just the right size to give a child, and yet it's still a proper treat.
We loved the full range, and I've already bought a few of them again, but our favourites ones were Jammie Dodgers Jam & Yogurt Snacks and the Oaty Cookie Bars -these were great for school lunches or for an after school snack.
I would recommend this range to other mums, they are such a handy thing to have in the cupboard.

Thank you for sending us these to test - needless to say the kids were ecstatic.
In general, our house rule is that we eat healthy during the week, although it's not always easy to stick to. Between treat Friday at school and endless after school activities which means we are running from pillar to post before we get to sit down for dinner in the evening. Our go to snack is always fruit, and the kids are really good about it, but it's also nice to have something extra to have in the sports bag when they come off the pitch looking for something to eat.
I'm very pleased with the small packs, with the reduction in sugar and the fact that they are all less than 100 cal. It means I don't have to worry about what they might and might not be getting, I just know.
The kids loved the Jammie Dodgers, and Chocolate Cookie Bars for treats, and for after activity snacks they were delighted with the Oaty Bars.
I will buy these again, and have already told my mum friends about them.
