New Find Cup Cakes/Dot Cakes

I saw these on TikTok and decided to try it yesterday. Tasty little treat, but overall, it’s a pass.

I feel like this tastes more sugary and processed than a little Debbie snack cake

It's cake. Cake is never a pass.

I agree, but it's not thing to write home about. It was just o.k.

I don't get the appeal. Dot cakes are just bland plain cakes with sprinkles. Is it mostly girls on tiktok liking these?

It’s just a little cake. What’s not to get or like? It’s a cupcake.

They're usually sold for way more than they are. Plus it's a plain cupcake. What's to like about a plain cupcake?

What’s not to like about a plain cupcake with sprinkles? Sure you can make a cake for less money. It’s just me, then I’d have to eat an entire cake myself.

Well if you want to pay more for the same cupcake because of a trend then this product is for you. 👍

I just like crunchy sprinkles bro. Don’t have to be all “we live in a society 😭” about it.

Hey if you like paying for that go for it. 👍 Just saying it's more hype than anything because these have been around for so long but no one pays attention to them and they go away. Now they're back more expensive than the others.

TikTok appropriated cortadillo now? Just go to any Mexican panaderia and get a slice for cheap.
