The packaging looked appealing and the product felt convenient and family-friendly. I liked that the cookie dough was ready to bake, which made it feel like a simple treat that wouldn’t require much preparation. It also prevented overindulging in a full batch of cookies! I thought the concept was really good. The packaging was bright, attractive and easy to understand, and the ready-to-bake format made the product stand out. It gives the impression of a fun product that would be particularly appealing to families. The instructions were clear and straightforward to follow. The baking process was easy to understand, although a little more detail around exact baking times for different ovens could be helpful, with reference to air fryers too if possible. The mix was very easy to use. There was no complicated preparation involved, which made it convenient when wanting freshly baked cookies without having to make the dough from scratch. Overall I thought the dough baked very well. The cookies had a lovely appearance and were nicely cooked, with a good balance between a slightly crisp outside and a softer centre. The flavour was enjoyable and tasted indulgent without being overly sweet. I liked the texture, particularly the softer centre when the cookies were freshly baked. They had a nice homemade-style feel. Yes, everyone in my family had the opportunity to try them. Yes, they were well received by the family. The convenience and freshly baked taste made them a popular treat. I thought the pre-portioned dough worked really well. It made the process much easier and meant there was no need to measure ingredients or worry about having leftover mixture. It was especially convenient for making just the amount needed and I felt the shelf life was appropriate. I think it is important having gluten-free certification gives extra reassurance about the ingredients and makes the product suitable for a wider range of people. I also appreciate knowing that attention has been paid to the quality of the ingredients when choosing treats for the family. I would be interested in trying some of the other flavours. Double chocolate is probably my least favourite flavour and that went down well, so I imagine that the other flavours would definitely appeal to me! The convenience and quality of these cookies make it a product I would consider buying again. They were quick and easy to prepare, and everyone enjoyed the finished cookies. They are a good option when you want something freshly baked without spending lots of time preparing it. I most liked the convenience. Having the dough ready to bake and already portioned made the whole process very simple and prevented overindulging. I also liked that the cookies tasted freshly baked without requiring much preparation. Everyone really enjoyed the taste and texture of the freshly baked cookies. I think they also liked being able to have warm cookies straight from the oven without having to wait for a complicated baking process. The overall quality was very good. The dough was easy to work with, the cookies baked nicely and the finished product tasted fresh and enjoyable. I think there is a good balance between convenience and quality. I think it offers good value, particularly for the convenience. Although it may cost more than making cookies completely from scratch, the time saved and the ease of having pre-portioned dough ready to bake add value. I would consider buying it again because it is convenient, easy to prepare and produces tasty cookies with minimal effort. I would recommend it because it is simple to use, enjoyable for the whole family and a convenient way to make freshly baked cookies. Overall, I really enjoyed the product. The biggest positives were the convenience, pre-portioned dough, ease of baking and the taste and texture of the finished cookies. I think it is a great option for a quick family treat. I have given it 4 rather than 5 stars because there is always a little room for improvement, particularly around value for money and providing even more guidance on baking times. I had a very positive experience with the Doughlicious Ready to Bake Cookies. The product was easy to understand, simple to prepare and saved a lot of time compared with making cookie dough from scratch. The pre-portioned dough was particularly convenient and helped minimise waste. The cookies baked well and had an enjoyable flavour and texture, especially when eaten warm from the oven. The product was also well received by the family, making it a good option for a shared treat. I liked the attractive packaging and the fact that the product is gluten-free certified. I would be happy to try other flavours and would consider purchasing the product again. Overall, These combine convenience and good quality with a tasty finished product, although I think there is some room for improvement in terms of value and baking guidance. Siobhra O’Brien

Looked interesting. Nice packaging knew exactly what it was inside. Easy to follow instructions. Easy to use and baked well. They did cook to perfection. These tasted really good. All the family tried these. The flavour was too chocolaty for one member of the family. Pre portioned meant they cooked evenly. Not really worried about them being gluten free as no one in our family needs to think about this. I will be buying more flavours if I see them in the supermarkets. These are quick and easy to make for all the family. Most liked how easy they are to bake. We all loved this as a Friday night treat. Great quality. Good value for a tasty treat. These are great for a treat but not a weekly occurrence. I would recommend as tasty and easy to bake. Nice treat and something a bit different. We really love cookies so having a quick way to bake a warm cookie is great. Sarah Thirling – Molly & Lucy 11 & 8 Years

Looked nice and good quality, was impressed that they arrived well packaged and frozen. I liked the idea; it looked simple but effective. Instructions easy to follow and not complex. Very easy to us, just put them on a baking tray and they cooked. It was cooked well but was hard to tell when it was fully cooked. Nice flavour but it was a little doughy. All the family tried these. We all enjoyed them, especially the children. Being pre-portioned was effective but the children found it a little boring to help with as there wasn’t anything for them to do. We are not a gluten free family. Probably would not buy these given the price point, you could make them yourselves for cheaper and would be a more fun activity for the children to make them from scratch. These are very quick and easy to make. I liked the ease of use. The family liked the taste of these cookies. Appeared good quality. I think you could make them cheaper yourself. Maybe purchase for a quick treat, but I think I would be more likely to make cookies myself from scratch due to the cost. I would recommend if they were looking for something easy and quick to do. Quite expensive for what they are but tasted nice. Good product makes cooking cookies quicker and easier but not as fun. Zoe Naylor – Chloe and Ava – 9 & 6 Years
