What Makes HelloFresh Stand Out From The Crowd?
HelloFresh provides quick, easy and delicious recipes with quality pre-portioned ingredients. Most recipes are ready in under an hour and only have three to six steps. Another great feature of HelloFresh is their user-friendly website and app. They make customising your meals, changing your box size, pausing or skipping a week simple. And for those who are keen on an eco-friendly experience, HelloFresh offers Climate Superstar recipes, which are developed to be 75% below the carbon budget threshold of an average Australian dinner.
What kinds of meals are there, and how much does it cost?
HelloFresh offers numerous menu preferences, including Classic, Family Friendly, Quick & Easy, Veggie and more. There are 37+ recipes to choose from, with four Vegetarian and four Plant Based options every week. Prices start from $7.33, based on a plan of five meals for six people. Shipping typically starts at $9.99. There are some unique premium dishes you can get with HelloFresh. They are:
Gourmet and Gourmet Plus: Elevated meals loaded with luxurious flavours and ingredients.
Taste Tours: Delicious feasts inspired by the flavours of the world.
Seasonal Specials: Dinners paired with desserts for special occasions like Easter and Lunar New Year.
How To Get Started
Getting started with HelloFresh is easy. Sign up with your email, Facebook, Google or Apple accounts. Select the plan you want and for how many people. Then provide your location and payment information. You can select delivery dates as well. The plan will auto-renew each week. As a flexible service, orders can be skipped, paused or cancelled before your weekly cut-off date.
Largely, no. Their focus is more on getting people to eat more fresh fruit and vegetables. Some of the meal plans do include organic ingredients, but it is by no means standard. They do mark allergens on all their recipes, but as of yet they do not offer specific plans tailored to those with food allergies. They also mark all of the nutritional information on the recipes.
When Can You Have Meals Delivered?
HelloFresh will deliver any day of the week, compared with some delivery services which will only deliver within a smaller four day span. You don’t even need to be home - the packaging will keep your ingredients fresh until you return, and if they don’t, they will offer a replacement.
Is Their Packaging Recyclable?
For the most part, yes. HelloFresh has an entire page on recycling, and even contains a few suggestions for re-using their boxes. They also work with their suppliers to make sure that their ingredients are as sustainable and environmentally friendly as possible. They do tend to overpackage their ingredients (ex. One bag per clove of garlic), which can work a little against them here.
