Samples received for taste-testing!
It’s always a good day when you get sweet treats in the mail! I recently received some fun packages from Sara Lee, which included a delicious sampling of their new line of Snack Cakes and some useful kitchen items, like a water bottle and insulated lunch tote. I actually used the lunch tote this weekend to pack clothes with me for an overnight trip – now how’s THAT for packing light! š
Something that impressed me about these snack cakes I received was how fresh they tasted. Usually, you think of pre-packaged snacks like this to be a little more on the stale side, but the Sara Lee cakes which I tasted were very spongy and soft. Of their offerings, we tried the following varieties:
- Crumb Cakes: These are delicious little treats that reminded me of a nice coffee cake. I took to eating one for my breakfast because they were oh so good with my morning cup of Joe!
- Buttery Sunshine Cakes: I am not normally a fan of pound cakes, but I found myself really enjoying this because it was so airy and light, with a great flavor. Jai especially loved these ones!
- Cheese Topped Crumb Cakes: Jai sampled this one and said it was most tasty – he’s a big fan of this type of buttery cake.
- Devil’s Food CrĆ©me Cakes: This was absolutely delicious – a chocolate cake with a fudgy center and a white cream filling that was as soft as a marshmallow. Mmm!
Each of these pre-packaged cakes are just the right size to pack along in a brown bag lunch. We would have taken these along for our trip last weekend, if we hadn’t eaten them all before we left – haha!
