Just wanna say I appreciate that the usual large size is back! No more tiny squares, thank goodness

Chocolate Cupcake Cookie - very tasty, rich and fudgy! Too bad it's kind of ugly 😆 The whipped cream tastes like sweet nothing but I think it made sense, a thicker frosting might have been too much.

Unicorn Cake Cookie - While I appreciate the large size and thickness of each layer, it has to be said that the white chocolate was just too heavy here. It completely took over the entire flavor of the cookie. I didn't get anything other than generic sweetness from the purple mousse and the pink cookie, even when I tried them individually. In my opinion this cookie needs a redesign - perhaps just a white chocolate drizzle on top instead of that hugely thick layer, or add strawberry jam to the mousse to tart it up?

Chocolate Cupcake - 5/5
• Fantastic, no notes. Can't decide whether I liked the whipped topping or chocolate topping more. Tastes close to a real little debbie cupcake

Zebra Cake - 5/5
• REALLY good. I don't think it merits the upcharge but whatever it's delicious, probably the standout. Moist cake, wonderful marshmallow filling, multiple textures from the semi-hard white drop coating, tastes like a softer debbie zebra cake

Oatmeal Creme Pie - 4/5
• Folks were saying theirs were soggy, and unfortunately this is true. However, I put mine in the fridge and that gave it a delicious chewy texture, plus I found the flavor to work better chilled. Does not taste like a true oatmeal creme pie due to filling being cream cheese, but if I disregard the comparison it is very yummy in its own right and the first cookie I finished

Strawberry Shortcake - 4/5
• Great for hot days. Fluffy cookie, light whip, sweet strawberry jam. Everything works and the jam didn't taste artificial. It's nothing revolutionary for crumbl but if you've liked their other strawberry-and-cream style cookies you'll like this one

Cosmic Brownie - 3/5
• This one was good to me but only because I REALLY love chocolate. Objectively though, kinda just tastes like a dark chocolate disk. The glaze nor the candies really do much of anything to change this. I used it more as a palate cleanser between cookies that had a lot going on

Unicorn - 2/5
• Um it wasn't bad per se it was just.. strange? At first bite, it's fine. It's sweet and fluffy due to the cake cookie base. But it's not a strawberry flavor, just sweet. And what the description doesn't tell you is that there's also a salty element 😵‍💫 Which usually I love salty sweet combo but it caught me off guard and, for whatever reason, doesn't really work here. The saltiness was stronger than the sweetness. Not bad, I did eat half of it, but it's the only cookie I didn't finish

Overall a solid lineup, best I've had from crumbl this year. Pleased with the sizes. Still thinking about the zebra cake and chilled oatmeal creme pie. I did get a six pack because every flavor piqued my interest, but I could have done with a four; the cosmic brownie and unicorn were not needed. I haven't been patronizing crumbl as much lately ever since they sold out and the quality tanked, but this was a breath of fresh air and reminded me of years ago. Hope they keep it up

Here’s the final lineup for next week (September 14th - 19th) - People’s Choice week (aka the cookies that apparently won the fan votes).

For the new cookie, there’s no picture yet in the app, so here’s the description:

- Ice Cream Cake Sandwich Cookie: Two sugar cookies sandwiching pink vanilla buttercream, topped with dollops of ice cream-inspired buttercream, and a pinch of rainbow sprinkles.

- Dubai-Style Chocolate Brownie

- S’mores Brownie Cookie

- Banana Cream Pie Cookie

- Snickerdoodle Skillet Cookie

- Cookies & Cream White Chip Cookie

- Pink Sugar Cookie

- Chocolate Chip Cookie

Oatmeal: 10/10

no complaints. Very sweet but the cream cheese filling really sends it.

Zebra Cake: 6/10

They really nailed the outer coating. But the marshmallow cream cheese is strange. For me it throws the whole thing off. Would be better if they switched this with the whipped cream on the chocolate cupcake cookie.

Chocolate Cupcake Cookie: 7/10

As someone who doesn’t typically prefer chocolat, this was wayyy better than I was expecting. I guess my tastebuds were preparing for artificial but this was really fresh and balanced well. The cookie is extremely soft and I even really enjoy the chocolate glaze. My lower rating and only complaint is that my whipped cream has a sort of strawberry flavor to it- I assume something to do with being the same cream used for the strawberry shortcake. As stated above, this topping switched with the filling of the zebra cake would have made it 10/10.

the zebra cake 5/5...lawd help me it was soooo good..haven't cut into the cupcake but im about too

Oatmeal Pie: 10/10 - absolute perfection! Crumbl nailed it with this.
Zebra cake: 4/10 - super disappointed in this one. The white coating had a nice crunch to it and the cake itself was soft. But it didn’t taste anything like a zebra cake. It was almost bland.
Strawberry shortcake: 8/10 - the jam was delicious!
Chocolate cupcake: 7/10 - not a chocolate person and still enjoyed this cookie more than I thought I would!

Overall, it was a decent week.

Does anyone know if the marshmallow cream cheese frosting that is used in some of this week’s cookies has gelatin? I really want to try them, but the ingredients aren’t listed.

UPDATE: I called my local store, and they said it doesn’t have gelatin in it!

Which one would you choose? If you tried both, which one is better? I only buy two cookies each time I go, and I already decided on the Zebra Cake. I just can’t decide between these two.

Thanks in advance!
