WEEKLY CRUMBL | 7.1.24

Happy 4th week, y’all. Anyone taking this week off for vacation? I’ll stay dreaming of the beach and jealous of all of you who aren’t working! I will say despite having to clock in, I always love a holiday week. Food, fun and a little bit of a slower pace are always guaranteed.

I’m also kicking the week off with a Weekly Crumbl- totally out of the norm from our usual end of the week reviews! This week’s lineup looks so so good + has Americana vibes which I love. We opted for the new Strawberry Shortcake, S’mores, Cornbread and Apple Pie. They also had Birthday Cake and Chocolate Chip this week.

Alright, into the nitty gritty. After tasting, my top two are definitely Strawberry Shortcake and Cornbread. I think the new cakes they are coming out with are a fun addition! The shortcake tastes exactly how you would expect- sweet, light and fluffy. All of the textures pair great together, the cake is super moist and it has a great vanilla flavor. The Cornbread is always a top choice for me. I love the cornmeal texture and the frosting. It’s rich, buttery and very sweet which pairs well with the cookie. I also think it’s more unique in flavor and concept which is why it always stands out.

The Apple Pie and S’mores I could personally take or leave. They are good, they just don’t wow me in the same way that the first two do. I should add that I’m not a huge apple pie or marshmallow person, lol. Maybe not the target audience? I still enjoyed them but the graham cracker is really what makes a s’more in my opinion. I feel like the cookie gives off a regular chocolate chip vibe with marshmallow added so I would prefer a little more graham flavor. The apple pie flavor is good, just not my style. All in all, both were still tasty and very fitting for this week!

Which flavors do you want to try this week?
