Ma Box Gourmande

What's in the box: The site does not list the contents, but the shop's range suggests Swiss cheese, fondue, charcuterie and aperitif treats rather than olive oil.

Ma Box Gourmande is a gift box from MaFondue.ch, an online shop run by Froval SA in La Tour-de-Trême, in the Gruyère region of Switzerland. The shop is built around fondue, raclette, cheese, charcuterie, aperitif snacks, desserts and fondue accessories. That makes this box a sampler of a Swiss cheese shop's range more than an olive oil or general pantry club. The site does not clearly say what goes in the box, how often it ships, whether it is a recurring subscription or a one-off purchase, or what it costs. The box's own page shows little more than a title, so it is hard to judge value before you order. The shop says it delivers within 24 hours, ships free on orders of 100 Swiss francs or more, and gives 10% off when you sign up for its newsletter. It also has services for businesses, clubs and associations and sells personalised caquelons, which suggests it focuses on gifts and corporate orders. As a source of Gruyère-region fondue and cheese products, the shop looks credible. If you want a curated olive oil or pantry subscription, look elsewhere. You can also email info@mafondue.ch to confirm what the box contains before you buy.
