With a red as bright as the sun itself and the promise of cream
in the centre, this is a treat I could not turn down. I have to
say that the company name is one I've never heard of, and seeing
as they sell snack cakes that never go bad, I have to wonder if
Mrs. Freshley still exists. Either way, I could tell I was in
for some good time cake eating, and it wasn't even my birthday.
Now I have to be honest, two things kind of disappointed me about
this treat. First of all, I thought, or at least hoped, that it
was raspberry cake all the way through. Unfortunately, the raspberry
was only on the outside. The cake inside was basically just a
Twinkie. Not that I don't like them, but if I wanted a Twinkie
I'd buy a Twinkie. I was also disappointed at the presence of
coconut. I'm just not a big fan.
I didn't really taste any raspberry either, which was also disappointing
because it's written in huge letters on the package. The taste
of the coconut didn't bother me as much as I thought it would.
I may be developing a taste for it, but it could also be that
I was so disappointed by the lack of raspberry taste that I forgot
all about it.
