Moeggenborg Sugar Bush


Deb! Deb, you know the cutest places. As soon as I read Deb's post about Moeggenborg Sugar Bush, you bet I hightailed it over yonder to grab a few goodies. The free sample in the heart shaped peppermint soap was so adored I had to make it appear in multiple cameos. I wanted to sample a little of everything and ended up with these fellas.


Peppermint Break Away Tart Melts ($2.50) leans more towards a green minty leaf rather than peppermint hard candy disks. I am excited to add this to my bedtime melting rotation. Two cubes melted strong in the bedroom for several hours. 


Lavender Goat's Milk ($4.00) soap is a winner for sure. It is that perfect lavender blend that is neither too herbal nor too detergent, just sweet, purple lavender with maybe a hint of vanilla. 



The free sample Peppermint Soap has a more perky candy cane peppermint aroma than the wax tarts. I am not sure if this is due to the soap base or if it is an entirely different oil. I adore it either way and will be hard pressed to use it. I may gaze at it longingly until it crumbles into a heap of soap flakes in the year 2025 (that is the year Savanna graduates high school! Gah!).


The Chili Cheese & Bacon Dip ($3.00) was delicious! At Deb's recommendation I served it with Frito's Scoops and I threw in some standard Original Lay's Chips too. Everyone at the family gathering enjoyed it.

I will be back for more from Moeggenborg Sugar Bush. The prices are delightful, the products are of great quality and the TAT is quick. Next on my list to sample is their fudge.

  1. Very nice! I always found their name delightful. So unique, I am curious about the origin.

    I was browsing the scent list and she says the soap is essential oil and tarts are fragrance oils for peppermint, that makes sense. I guess the FO's hold up better being heated for a long time.

    2. It is a fun name! Mmmmmm maple candy. Adam likes to rib me for only using pure maple syrup vs. Aunt Jemima. It just tastes so much better.

      Thanks for finding that out! Makes perfect sense.
