Review: Dark Chocolate Pomegranate Heart Healthy VitaTop and Some Fun News!
Last year I tried the Dark Chocolate Pomegranate Flavored VitaBrownie and they soon became my favorite Vitalicious product, until now! Recently I got a chance to try the Dark Chocolate Pomegranate VitaTop and I like it even better! I mean they taste identical but the size and shape of the VitaTop is nicer, especially when you pull them out of the freezer. They defrost fast and (I can’t believe I’m going to admit this) even taste good frozen. That’s right, I’ve eaten them frozen and so has the toddler. ;~) They also have a better shape to top with a scoop of your favorite lite ice cream!
If you remember I announced a few months ago that I had a Vitalicious store front. Vitalicious and I have been talking about a few promotions and I’m really excited about our new relationship. We are working on a “Roni’s Favorites” sample pack, a contest and I got them to agree to a Roni’s Weigh promotion code! So if you plan on buying any Vitalicious products please use the code RonisWeigh, you’ll get 10% off and be supporting my sites at the same time! Vitalicious will also be launching a new blog soon and asked me to supply some videos! How cool is that? :~)
I’m super excited about this. Vitalicious and I have had an informal relationship for a while. They’ve sent me samples to try and even used some of my ideas in newsletters but this is more “official” and I feel like my blog is growing up in a way. Plus I really like their products! :~)

What's Cooking in my kitchen?

I've recently discovered the amazing combination of cheese and dried cherries. I know, it sounds weird, but seriously… good! The other day I smeared some Laughing Cow Light Swiss on Cucumber slices and then topped with a cherry. It was a fun, sweet twist on standard cheese and crackers. Well, cheese [...] -
If I was a good blogger this idea would have been published BEFORE the Super Bowl not during it. I made these today to have a little fun. Surprisingly, The Husband liked them even though he didn't eat more than one. Why? Because he's strange like [...] -
If you read my weight loss blog you know I'm battling a bit of back and neck pain right now. I'm starting to feel a little better but those first few days where rough. Being the head chef of the household, this meant we ordered in a couple of times. I'm [...] -
I'm LOVING Pinterest! I can just scroll all day long looking at food photo after food photo. I wish I had more time to peruse! (I'm RoniNoone there by the way?) The other day I pinned a Portabello Mushroom pizza and was immediately inspired. It's such a simple idea and so light. [...] -
The other day I found myself craving an Orange Julius. Are they as popular as I think they are? Growing up we had an Orange Julius at our local mall. It was always a treat for us at the end of a family shopping trip. Once I was old enough to be [...] -
So I'm a little breakfast nutty at the moment. Little Bean LOVES eggs and I find myself cooking them more and more. This morning I decided to go super light (after last nights chocolate overload) and it was totally satisfying for just over 100 calories! The trick to making [...] -
A few weeks ago I saw Chef Michael Simon make a raw kale salad on The Chew. He sliced beets up real thin and cut the kale into ribbons. Then made a vinaigrette out of red wine vinegar and olive oil. I was immediately intrigued. So far I've only [...] -
I've had this idea for a quick creamy chicken dish for a few days now. It was time to give it a shot. The whole family LOVED it. I'm not joking. The only complaint came from Little Guy who declared his hate of mushrooms yet again BUT he ate everything around them. Fine [...] -
I made this on a total whim yesterday as I had leftover avocado after feeding the baby and leftover Spaghetti squash cooked from the weekend. I roasted the squash to serve with my Chicken tips instead of potatoes and it was AMAZING! Anyway, I'm getting sidetracked. So I'm sitting there staring [...] -
It's post holiday season. You know what that means? Leftover Crescent rolls to experiment with! Every year for Thanksgiving I buy a few canisters. It's the only time I do as I can't be trusted around them. Let's just say I'd beat you in the How-Many-Crescent-Rolls-Can-You-Eat-In-One-Sitting game and leave [...] -
Last week the kids and I tried parsnips for the first time and I've made them 3 times since. I wanted to figure out the best way to roast them. Yeah, that's it, the best way to roast them. You'll buy that right? Right? The truth is, I'm obsessed. I found myself [...] -
Yesterday just felt like a good day to stuff an acorn squash. I had one sitting on my counter for quite some time and it was just begging to be cooked. Since both husband and child don't like it I made a solo meal just for me and, well, it was DELICIOUS! [...] -
I bought a fennel bulb on a whim for the holidays not knowing quite what I would do with it. Of course I forgot about until yesterday when I was rummaging through the fridge trying to figure out what I wanted to make for breakfast. I pulled it out and stared [...] -
I probably should have warned you I was taking a holiday hiatus. I've been soaking up every moment of family time imaginable these last few days, leaving no time for anything else. Not even blogging! Shocking I know. ;) So I return not with a new recipe, per se, but to [...] -
Here's a quick idea for when you find yourself with a spaghetti squash but don't quite know what to do with it. Come on. Admit it. That's happened to you too. It's sure happened to me! I roasted this squash on Sunday... [...] -
I'm not sure if this will be a crowd pleaser, but I liked it and thought I'd share in hopes it inspires you to have some fun with kale. I loved the combination of sweet pear, earthy kale, salty bacon bits and creamy hummus. The only issue with the wrap was [...] -
I'm going on day 2 of counting Weight Watcher Points and I'm already inspired to come up with light, healthy meals for myself. It's like I needed the constraint of points to motivate me. Isn't that weird? Anyway, all morning I was brainstorming what to make for lunch. I wanted something flavorful [...] -
I have a friend who patiently cleaned, peeled and cubed a fresh pumpkin and then selflessly gave me some. Scratch that, a TON! I would have never even thought of doing something like that! But now that I have it in my fridge the ideas are flowing. First, I roasted some [...] -
CHRISTMAS COOKIES! YAY! Sorry. I'm so excited! Little Guy and I had tons of fun making and decorating cookies today. It may just be my favorite part of the holiday season. I loved it when I was a kid and now I get to do it with my own kids. [...] -
This may be my simplest idea yet, but it was so tasty and satisfying I had to share. Plus you guys know I'm a Laughing Cow Community Leader so I'm all about sharing fun ways to use their products. You guys may also know how I feel about pausing and making [...] -
I made this on Thursday. THURSDAY! I hate when I can't post something I've eaten within 24 hours. It just bugs me. Not sure why, it really doesn't matter when I post it, does it? Anyway, I did whip this up to cure a pizza craving and I couldn't be happier. [...] -
It's been awhile since I jazzed up a tilapia fillet. I've breaded them before, coated them in oats, flavored them like one of my favorite drinks and topped them with a fun salsa. It was time to bring nuts into the party. You are going to think I'm crazy but I've [...] -
Fun leftover turkey idea #2! Click here for leftover turkey idea #1. I had a little Gouda leftover from this years Harvest Salad and decided to put all the same flavors from the salad into a quesadilla. I just can't get enough of the smokey gouda/sweet craisin combo. It goes [...] -
It's the day after Thanksgiving and my refrigerator ROCKS! I have leftover turkey, mashed potatoes, stuffing, roasted Brussels Sprouts, a bunch of veggies and tons of miscellaneous fun stuff. I've already made stock from the bones (like this) and my first batch of soup, Classic Turkey Noodle. I hope to share [...] -
I'm so sorry I've been slacking in the Thanksgiving recipe department. I feel like a bad food blogger. Everyone else is posting festive ideas and here I've gone missing for a few days. Maybe it's because I'm not doing anything special for Turkey day. I finally got my holiday cooking [...]

That ROCKS!!!
Ha! Funny, I just made myself a cup of coffee and nuked a blueberry vitatop before sitting down to catch up on my blog reading. Good stuff : )
that is so cool! Haven’t tried any of their products but plan on checking them out.
that is awesome!! i’ve always wanted to try the corn bread vitatop…but they never have it in the stores. i may have to make a purchase sometime~
Congrats that is very exciting!
i LOVE titatops and THANKS roni for the coupon code. your 10% code is better than the 5% codes that come directly in the vitalicious emails!!
i ordered the cornbread vitatops and they are a new fave in addition to the choco and bran. i take the cornbread vitatop, nuke it for 25 secs and add 1/4c. chili and a sprinke of WW cheese! this is a yummy chili/cheese/cornbread comfort food dish for me! all for THREE points!!
That’s so exciting!
I have to say, I love vitamuffins and vitatops! I really love the fact that you can buy the mixes online because it’s such an affordable option!! I buy them in the 6-mix boxes because they often have sale promotions on those and the shipping is no different than if you buy one box. Gotta love vitalicious!!!
oh thanks for the cornbread vitatop review annabanana!
Hey Roni,
I found you page from Leigh Peele’s blog. I really like your site. I love Vita Muffins! I have not seen these yet. My favorite is the Chocolate Chip ones in the box that you make yourself. I am definitely going to try these.
I love vitamuffis! I buy the chocolate mixes and make my own. I have one every night with a WW Giant Fudge Bar cut up on top of it. What a great treat for 2 points!
Oh – and I have had the chocolate pomegranite brownies – they are to die for!
I’ve been sort of “lurking” around a few weight loss blogs in the past few months as I embarked on what I hope will be my last weight loss journey. I found a link to website on another page and I am just as impressed as I am inspired by your site. I still feel a bit funny sending you or any blogger a comment, but I had to finally write and thank you. Your words echo many of my thoughts and it’s just nice to know that there is a light at the end of the tunnel. I can do this.
Now off to check out the VitaTops! I had heard of the company but never tried anything. Any ideas for sweet tooth cravings are much appreciated.
Thanks again and congratulations on your collaboration with Vitalicious.
Hi Roni,
Is your code/discount available for use in Canada? I order from Vita online, but it’s the Canadian “store”. Just wondering if it’s inter-changeable? I’d love to support your site when I order!
Krista
Congrats! That is so awesome. Pretty soon everyone will be recognizing you. Maybe I should have asked for your autograph. You could have signed my baby! hahaha I’ll have to remember that next time we bump into each other. :)
Hi, I am Roni’s friend from Vitalicious. I thought it would be easier for me to answer some of your questions directly and save Roni from being the “middle-man”. First off, I just want you to know that I also eat VitaTops frozen especially the chocolate flavors- they kind of remind me of the chocolate cake part of the ice cream sandwich.
Most stores are carrying the Golden Corn VitaTops or VitaMuffins & I believe they will eventually be in all stores very soon. Also, the website offers flavors that are not available in the stores.
The mixes are a better bargain because they are approx. 50% the cost per muffin, shipping is less expensive (unless you add frozen items to your order) and they taste better fresh-baked (my opinion- don’t tell the owner).
We can extend the coupon for Canada for 5% off. Pricing is different on that site.
thanks for the discount. I just ordered some and had then sent to my mom so that she can send them to me overseas. I cannot wait until they get here. I am excited. I just hope they are still okay to eat after being in the mail for a week…grr…
Christy, tell your mom that they must be frozen when they arrive & should be shipped frozen. They should NOT be in transit for more than 3 days. She’ll need to explore some rush shipping options. You should also freeze them upon arrival to you. Our product is designed to be re-frozen without any loss of integrity to it. Hope this helps.
