WEEKLY CRUMBL | 8.12.24


Happy Monday, ya'll. What better way to kick off the week than with a little Crumbl Cookies review? These are from last week's lineup so I'm a tad late with this post but they were too good not to share. I've told you before that I usually have an all or nothing approach when it comes to Crumbl. Basically I have to be excited by all of the week's flavors in order to commit to them. Last week's definitely grabbed my attention with the brand new German Chocolate Cake, Strawberry Ice Cream Bar, Mint Chip Ice Cream, Monster ft. M&M's and Blueberry Crumb Cake. 

I was the most excited by the new German Chocolate Cake. I love that Crumbl is adapting the menu- it's fun, fresh and exciting. One of my favorite Crumbl flavors is the German Chocolate cookie so I was all over this one and would say it was pretty solid. Very rich and decadent. In a perfect world, I could have used more of the coconut frosting with the amount of cake but in taste, it was pretty spot on and very yum! 

I was also excited about the Strawberry Ice Cream Bar which ended up being just okay. The strawberry flavor is definitely on the artificial side but not super strong. I would generalize this one as just being really sweet and more of a sugar cookie with a hint of strawberry. Presentation wise, very cute + representative of the ice cream bars. 

The last three I enjoyed pretty equally. No wow factors for me but all yummy. The Blueberry Crumb Cake was super crumb cake in my mind and definitely more of just a lemon blueberry cookie. I'm hit or miss with both of these flavors but enjoyed this one and the glaze on top. The Monster Cookie was more or less a chocolate chip cookie with M&Ms and the occasion hint of peanut butter. Good flavor, nothing outlandish. I also liked the Mint Chip Ice Cream- I've never been a huge mint fan but it was sweet and not too overpowering. Definitely not as good as the Andes Mint in my mind but lighter and refreshing. 

I've eaten my weight in way too many cookies this past weekend, I need to skip out for awhile! I did see a spoiler for a new Banana Pudding coming out though which will be hard to resist... 

Which flavor would be your top pick?
