Niagara Chocolates Maple Cream Dark Cups
Score: 6.5 / 10
The chocolate shells around these are dark and incredibly thick. It provides a nice chocolate crunch, but it falls apart after the first bite. The filling looks like gooey caramel, and it tastes moderately sweet sugar with only a tad of maple, so it’s a bit misleading.
Likely released around late summer 2022 for the fall season. These returned in 2023 around the same time. Notably, Niagara Chocolates has been around since the 1950s but recently has had to start closing its doors in mid-2023. Found at Stop & Shop.
Little Debbie Strawberry Swiss Rolls
Score: 7 / 10
Honestly, there isn’t a huge difference between these strawberry-flavored Swiss Rolls and regular ones. The only difference is the cream, which is colored light pink, and like the color, the flavor is light strawberry combined with the traditional cream taste. Aside from that, it’s the typical, fairly sweet, and soft chocolate Swiss Roll. I kind of prefer the OGs.
Released around March 2023. Found at Walmart.
Little Debbie Peanut Butter Creme Pies.
Score: 9 / 10
Most Little Debbie snacks aren’t that big, but these are so large and thick! Two chunky cookies envelop a decent layer of soft, creamy peanut butter. Both the cookies and the filling taste the same: a fairly sweet peanut butter. I don’t think the peanut butter is as sweet as a Reese’s, for example, but it comes close. The entire cookie sandwich is additionally soft and pretty easy to chew through. Such a treat for those of us who love peanut butter!
Released in 2014. Found at Walmart.
