Here’s this week’s official lineup! They dropped a Make-A-Wish Cookie too! (This is for Canada only. Apparently, if you round up your Crumbl order at checkout, it will go to help support the Make-A-Wish Foundation.) There are upcharges for the brownie and cheesecake. Minis are available for everything.
While not shocking, I was sad to see Chip City went down this month. They weren’t nearly as large as Crumbl but I keep hearing how Crumbl sales are plummeting.
I really wish corporate wasn’t so tone deaf and would actually give deeper thought and consideration to customer suggestions when executing their business plans.
I cannot speak on Chip City as I didn’t get the chance to order from them. However, I really hope and pray that this will be a wake up call for Crumbl (it won’t) that clearly something isn’t working…
Is it the cookie vendor niche as a whole? I can only speak on my behalf. For me I think it’s the culmination of a few different factors. High cookie prices, not selling enough of the items I enjoyed, a lack of promos/discounts (4 for 6 was at least something).
I do believe we’re approaching the last years of the company but I hope I’m mistaken.
this week really isn’t giving country to me but still 10/10 on alllllll of them especially that pumpkin square my lorddddd😍
It seems like the location closest to me always does a great job with adding the perfect amount of frosting. The cookies are also HUGE this time! Especially my mom’s peanut butter one!
Snickerdoodle Cupcake Cookie-10/10! This is a delicious cookie! I love cinnamon and sugar. I make homemade snickerdoodle and sugar cookies quite often. I’ve loved every snickerdoodle cookie I’ve ever tried from Crumbl. The OG regular snickerdoodle with no frosting was good, but I definitely prefer them with frosting. I know cream cheese frosting isn’t loved by a lot of people, but I LOVE cream cheese frosting. The Churro cookie from Fair Week I think had a touch more cinnamon, but this is just as good as that one was for me!
Peanut Butter Milkshake Cookie-7/10. I like Butterfingers, but it’s not my favorite candy of all-time. I’m also not a huge straight peanut butter fan. I need it with chocolate or grape jelly😂 but I’m also not a huge chocolate person, so I probably wouldn’t have gotten this one either way. This was for my mom. I did try it out though. I just took a little bit and it tasted VERY strongly of peanut butter. Nothing else though. It’s just 100% peanut butter and I think that’s why it wasn’t great for me. My mom LOVED it though. If you’re a fan of peanut butter, I think you’d like this if it gets offered again! As for the buttercream frosting, it was good. I like buttercream frosting, but I just prefer cream cheese frosting most of the time. However, I do not think a cream cheese frosting would’ve worked well with this cookie. Buttercream was 100% the way to go.
Pumpkin Square-9/10! I LOVE pumpkin cakes! I’m NOT a fan of pumpkin pie (pecan pie can’t be beat!) but pumpkin cakes are a huge favorite! I can’t give it a perfect score though because it has a TON of spice in it. It’s a heavily, heavily spiced cake. My mouth kind of tingles when eating this cake. The only time that happens is when I add too much cinnamon to some food item I’m making or baking. Even with all of that being said, I’m still going to enjoy the hell out of both cakes! I will just eat a few bites at a time(: it’s still a delicious cake! I used to have a coworker that made the best pumpkin cake, but I never managed to get her recipe. So this will just have to be my pumpkin cake for the year!
Overall, I think this week was a successful one for the 2 I chose and the 1 my mom wanted. I’m not a fan of chocolate (or marshmallow) so I skipped the S’Mores. I’m also not a fan is strawberries, I tried the blueberry one months ago and it was just okay. I’ve only gone once or twice since my first review (Fair week) and they just haven’t been super exciting or special. Last week’s were okay. I was just HOPING the OG Celebration/Cake Batter cookie would come back, but it did not. I had to just suck it up and eat a chocolate cookie with cake batter frosting. The cake batter blondie was okay too, but I didn’t like the white drops (I think that’s what they were called anyways). Neither were my beloved cake batter cookie though. But I HAD to try the 2 I got today. They seemed like they’d be good and they definitely were! I’m still holding out hope my favorite cookie will make an appearance soon though.
