They are served warm. They are too expensive for a cookie. Not even worth it. Not that great.

Too sweet for me, also. I bet they would taste really good if they cut some of the sugar

I like them.

Cinnamon buns are crazy sweet, so if you bought a cinnamon bun inspired cookie, of course it’s going to be very sweet. I agree that their cookies tend to be very sweet and some of them look perfect, but the overall flavor is lackluster. Once in a while, they’ll have a flavor that is really, really good, but most of them aren’t worth the calories or the money. They really do have a great app, great marketing, and good service.

Disgusting. My family bought a box when they first opened and we all hated them. Way too sweet and not in a good way, just in a cloying way.

I like them. I love the real buttercream frosting. I hate cheap bakery frosting. Too pricey for a regular thing.

I like some of their cookies more than others. I’m usually disappointed in their chocolate, love anything lemon or peanut butter. They’re all definitely for people with a sweet tooth, which is me, so that doesn’t turn me off.

They have been around for many years already so they have exceeded your expectations. We tried them once. I think they seemed more fun than tasty. I also would rather a tollhouse than anything else. Can't think of a reason why we would go back.

Too sweet. Best Buns are better. But even then we cut the cookie into 1/4s to share.

This is why Americans are so fat. They consume monstrosities like crumble and even give these freak shows to their children:



I think it is absolutely laughable they define a serving as only a 1/4 of a cookie. Who TF is going to only eat 1/4 of a cookie. No, the entire cookie itself has almost 800 calories, 30+ grams of sugar, 100% DV worth of saturated fat, and over 100 mg of cholesterol.

It's not even a sweet 'treat'. It's a giant health bomb.

My local bakery’s cinnamon bun, which I don’t eat very often, has balance. The cinnamon roll cake thing at crumbl is just main-lining sugar. It’s overboard.

Wow! Is that any specific cookie? I assume the larger premium cookie cake things are even worse! They are usually $1-3 extra too.

That's just the standard chocolate chip cookie. Here is the even worse freak show that is the cinnamon bun cookie:




I can't imagine feeding this thing to a child. Even if you cut it into 1/4 you're still giving a kid 20 grams of sugar they'll wolf down in about 10 seconds. That's borderline child abuse.

Americans should learn to live with the mindset of Swedish lagom. Why does everything have to be so massively excessive in this country? And we.wondee why our people are so unhealthy.
