Birthday Cake Cookies - Target: Cherry Hill, NJ
It seems like the birthday cake trend is finally coming to an end, most likely due to the influx of pumpkin spiced items for the fall, but Target might have missed the memo. In all fairness I'm not sure when they were first released, but these cookies showed up on in my area last month, and even though I am still confused as to how something is supposed to taste like "birthday cake" when it has no specified flavor combination, I though it'd be interesting to see what Target's take on the birthday cake Oreo sandwich cookie would be like.
Market Pantry Pumpkin Cheesecake Cookies - Target - Cherry Hill, NJ
The Pepperidge Farm pumpkin cheesecake cookies
were very soft and chewy, but expensive, and they didn't taste very
pumpkin-y at all. Maybe these sandwich style Target brand cookies will
be better.
I've talked about Market Pantry being a no frills brand
before, which means they skimp on packaging to provide a cheaper
product, so I'm going to skip over discussing the package itself.
Instead, I'm going to focus on the photograph featured on the box.
Although these cookies are supposed to be the same flavor as the
Pepperidge farm cookies, they tackle the cheesecake aspect in different
ways. This time the cookies are sandwich style, instead of large soft
cookies, and the cheesecake flavoring is limited to the creamy filling. (Similar to an Oreo.) Judging by the photo, these cookie look a lot like ginger snaps, and they seem pretty small.
