Well, they’re not really  known for their food… you walk in, and the first thing you’ll see is rows and rows of cakes, pastries and breads!! I was so excited to try out their cookies. But maybe I should have gotten the mango cheesecake instead…

Here are pictures of the two sugarfree (read: Splenda-ed) cookies I got:

Tropicana Bakery Cashew cookie

Tropicana Bakery sugar free cookie

The first one, I’ll call a cashew cookie, cuz it looks like a cashew. either way, they more or less tasted the same (er.. but they were a LOT prettier before they spent a couple of hours in the hot car…). NOT a fan. It was soft, but a bready soft, not like a cookie soft. it was too cakey for me to like it as a cookie. Taste was bland.. not enough chocolate?! Next time I’ll stick with the pastries!

  • Taste: 3
  • Crust and center moistness: bready / cakey
  • Value: 5 for $1.25. and you have to get 5. $0.25 for a bad cookie is not too bad..?
  • Overall: PASS, get their cakes instead, that is what they’re known for anyway!
