Strawberry Shortcake: 8/10
At first glance, the Strawberry Shortcake cookie looked amazing. I’m a sucker for everything fruit flavored; so I was super excited to try it. It was a regular chewy cake cookie topped with super soft and fluffy whipped cream with a tart strawberry jam. In the first bite, I instantly tasted the strawberry jam. It was pretty overpowering in contrast to the whipped cream and the actual cookie. However, I still enjoyed it. My favorite part was the soft cookie. The flavors blended so well with the toppings, not too sweet and not too bland. I definitely recommend trying this cookie.
Churro: 7/10
The second cookie I tried was the iconic Churro cookie. I’m a big fan of churros to begin with so of course I had to try it. The actual cookie was a little crunchier than the Strawberry Shortcake cookie. The icing was a super sweet-smooth buttercream formula dusted with cinnamon sugar. Overall, it was a very sweet cookie. I’m not sure if I liked this cookie better than the Strawberry Shortcake one, but it was definitely delicious and worth a try.

Beetlejuice cookie 4/10
I really liked the design of this cookie — it was fun and colorful — but it didn’t taste good. I’ve always had a sweet tooth, but this was overly sugary, and the icing was a mess. The chocolate cake part was especially disappointing.
It was dry and lacked the chocolate taste I was expecting. The icing on its own was good, but it was completely overshadowed by the already bland cake. The only nice thing about this cake was that I wasn’t the one who bought it.
Semi-Sweet Cookie 6/10
Normally, I’d go for something either really sweet or salty, so I was surprisingly disappointed by this cookie. The large chocolate chunks looked good, but once I bit into it, I noticed the cookie tasted slightly underbaked. I expected a strong flavor balance, but it was more flat than anything. Not too salty or not too sweet, just underwhelming. It might be better for someone who prefers more subtle flavors, but for me, it felt like it was missing something.

Banana Bread: 8/10
To begin, I tried the Banana Bread. When you first look at it, it looks appetizing. It had a cinnamon layer on top, and banana chunks throughout the bread. When you initially bite into it, it has a pleasant banana flavor, and when you chew, the crunchy layer on top compliments the banana flavor. The bread is very smooth and moist as you eat it, and the banana bits and cinnamon crunch create an easy-to-digest texture. There was very little aftertaste, but it does leave you wanting more. Overall, it was very satisfying.
Triple Chocolate: 7/10
Next, I tried the Triple Chocolate cookie. The cookie looked and kind of tasted dry. Initially, there was a chocolatey hint, but you have to chew to release the strong flavor. The cookie is smooth but tougher than the banana bread, and it has very little give when you chew. Although the flavor is very nice, there is little to no variety to it, no fun spin or twist and it is rather unoriginal and stagnant. Overall, the cookie is a good-rich bundle of familiar chocolate flavor, but it could be better.
