I hope they bring the old ones back as this new thing isn’t edible,” one personrevealed.
“There was a bunch of arguing in my local Costco FB group about these new muffins.
Someone was excited because they apparently replaced 98% of the seed oils with real butter.
Can confirm, first ingredient is butter on these chocolate muffins!“addsanother.
“I know this isn’t a popular opinion but the round cakes in the bakery.
Got the white cake, frosting was ridiculously sweet.
Like some of the sweetest I’ve ever had.
The cream cheese filling in the middle was maybe 1/4” thick.
The cake part was fine but couldn’t salvage the rest.

Hazelnut Spread Filled Crepes
Another item not very liked in the bakery?
“Those hazelnut spread filled crepes.
Dry and stale,” one personsaid.
And I like bread and I like chocolate hazelnut key in filling but woof.
Smear Nutella in the crepes at home fresh tada the same effect by way better and less stale.
It also had like very little filling I found at least in the ones I tried.
