Crumbl released its flavors of the week and here’s everything that you can look forward to (or better yet, order from a Crumbl shop near you):

  • Peanut Butter Crisp ft. Butterfinger: This comes with a flavor that might be among your childhood favorites. The cookie is bursting with peanut butter flavor and comes with melted chocolate and Butterfinger pieces. Get this flavor for a crunchy adventure with sweet, peanut buttery ending!
  • Double Fudge Brownie: Here’s something new for Crumbl fans. The Double Fudge Brownie with fudge frosting looks simple on the outside. But one bite will give you semi-sweet chocolate chunks and milk chocolate drops. How does a soft, chunky, and creamy brownie sound?
  • Blueberry Muffin: Not an actual muffin, but a cookie flavored with a buttery cake glaze. It is finished with blueberry muffin streusel topping for a satisfying crunch!
  • Cookie Dough: This sweet cookie comes with a hint of brown sugar. Enjoy the creamy and chunky texture from the combination of cookie dough buttercream and cookie dough pieces on top.
  • Cornbread: If you love the honey flavor all over your cookies, this treat is for you! The Cornbread cookie comes with honey butter-flavored glaze and finished with a dollop of honey buttercream. A drizzle of honey is added on top to complete the cozy treat.
  • Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chunk: Remember Crumbl’s classic Chocolate Chip? Make it chunky and you’ll know what to expect from this flavor. The semi-sweet chunks are loaded into the cookie and topped with a sprinkle of sea salt.

Aside from the flavors of the week, Crumbl will be offering minis every day. Family Confetti Cakes are also available every week, great for sharing with other dessert lovers in your circle. For more food news about Crumbl, visit their website or follow along our latest posts.

Welcome to Chocolate Heaven

Also available this week at select Crumbl stores are their three new test items. The brand is known for their non-cookie creations made to satisfy various dessert preferences. Check out these test items featuring rich chocolate in its different glorious forms:

  • Cookies & Cream Tres Leches: Light, fluffy, dark, and soaked in tres leches sauce. Need I say more? Actually, there’s more…this dark chocolate cake is also topped with whipped cream and cookies & cream streusel pieces.
  • Cookies & Cream Cake: Here’s another chocolate and cookies & cream-flavored cake, but has lots of other flavors that you will enjoy. The two-tiered cake is made with dark chocolate and comes with a rich chocolate glaze. It also features cream cheese frosting and mini cookies & cream topping. This cake alone is heaven in every bite!
  • Molten Lava Cake: This is the only cake that isn’t made with dark chocolate but that doesn’t mean it’s less attractive. Have you seen its center with flowing melted molten chocolate? It’s hard to resist, to be honest. Additionally, the cake is finished with powdered sugar and French vanilla mousse that adds creaminess to the dessert.

Again, these items are available this week only, so you better check if the Crumbl store near you has them!

CosMc’s New Beverage Lineup

Halloween stories would tell you that out-of-this world and unidentified objects come to Earth on a regular basis. This time, though, otherworldly drinks just landed, and they’re from CosMc’s! The brand recently announced the release of six new beverages to celebrate the opening of its 6th restaurant in Texas. The lineup includes the following galactic flavors:

  • Oat & Honey Latte
  • Coconaut Cold Brew
  • French Toast Galaxy Iced Latte
  • Pistachio Swirl Shaken Espresso
  • Iced Vanilla Matcha Latte
  • Sea Salted Caramelactic Shaken Espresso

Halloween Buckets

Halloween buckets are also everywhere this season, which means plenty of donuts to munch on! Tomorrow, October 16, 2024, Dunkin’ is set to release its Halloween Munchkins Bucket that can hold up to 50 munchkins! Reportedly, the bucket will also be sold separately for $2. The munchkins would pair well with Dunkin’s another spooky treat, the Potion Macchiato, this espresso drink is combined with milk and marshmallow ube flavor, giving it a vibrant purple hue.

Tim Hortons Halloween Menu Lineup

Meanwhile, Timbits Trick-or-Treat Buckets from Tim Hortons are now up for grabs. Start the Halloween a little early and get their glow-in-the-dark buckets! The buckets can hold up to 31 Timbits, and will cost $10.99. You can also make a refill of Timbits and pay only $6. Just to be clear, this is not a trick!

In other news, McDonald’s is bringing back its Happy Meal Boo Buckets. While they don’t have sweet little donuts, the buckets still make a perfect accessory for Halloween parties. The Boo Buckets will be back today and will replace the original Happy Meal packaging, most likely until Halloween night.

From The Club

So many sweet surprises from Crumbl this week! The moment I heard about the Butterfinger collab, I knew I’m gonna get the cookie flavored with that candy bar. But I’d like to say that the Cornbread cookie also looks delicious! It got my attention, partly because I love honey and its combination with butter. And that lineup of new test items? It’s every chocolate lover’s dream…For me, it’s hard to pick just one to try. So when I see a testing location, I’ll be running to get them all! 🏃🏽
