REVIEW: Crumbl Cookies & Cream Pie

/ / Reviews / 3 Comments

Crumbl’s Dessert of the Month for June 2025 is the Cookies & Cream Pie. The returning product is a chilled pie with a cookies and cream crust, smooth cookies and cream filling, and topped with whipped cream and crunchy cookie crumbs.

Despite the amount of whipped cream, I assure you there is a pie under all that, and it is not a whipped cream pie that will be flung into the face of an unsuspecting victim as a prank while they give an interview on television. I also assure you that this pie has all the flavor and some of the crunch you’d expect from something with “cookies & cream” in its name.

Although the word “cookie” is in the description of this dessert three times, only one of those ingredients provides any cookie crunch — the dark cookie crumbs on top. Sadly, the cookies and cream crust, although firm, doesn’t give a satisfying crunch. Instead, it’s what you’d expect from a pie crust. But that’s okay because it amps the pie’s chocolate flavor considerably. Although there appear to be cookie crumbs in the pie’s filling, they are so soft that they don’t even add any grittiness, and when mixed with the white cream, they make the filling look grey in some places.

While being black, white, and grey sounds like the beginning of a riddle, this pie’s flavor is ridiculously good. The cookies and cream balance is perfect, with neither the chocolate nor the cream overwhelming each other. Not even the overabundant whipped cream affects the balance. I’m not sure if Oreo cookies are being used, but it tastes like they are. It’s so good that I’d eat the whole thing in one sitting if I didn’t know its nutrition facts.

Crumbl’s Cookies & Cream Pie is worthy of the Dessert of the Month title. If you’re a fan of cookies and cream-flavored products, this is worth ordering even if there’s a 99-cent premium over Crumbl’s usual offerings.

REVIEW: Kellogg’s Crumbl Chocolatey Chip Cookie Cereal

/ / Reviews / 8 Comments

Let me preface this review by saying, I like Crumbl.

At some points, it might seem like I, in fact, do not like Crumbl, but I like Crumbl!

I don’t love Crumbl. I dislike their “drop the vowel” startup-style name. The blindingly white and clinical aesthetic of the storefront doesn’t pass my vibe check, and the fact every cookie tastes like it’s about 87% cooked through always leaves me feeling a little empty – before I get full from the 800-calorie cookie I shove down my gullet.

That said, I checked my Crumbl app, and I’ve apparently tried 19 of its cookies. That’s a lot of cookies for someone on the fence. Credit to them, they’re always getting my attention with new and interesting flavors that I mostly enjoy to varying degrees. As for its flagship Chocolatey Chip Cookie? It’s solid. I’d probably toss it somewhere near the midpoint of the 19, which is more than enough to get me to try its new Kellogg’s cereal collab.

I haven’t had a cookie-based cereal in years, as I’ve been boycotting Cookie Crisp ever since Officer Crumb, Chip the Dog, and Cookie Crook were replaced with that generic Wolf. There’s room in my heart for a new Cookie Crisp to fill the void, and I promise there’s no bias here, because I do like Crumbl.

This ain’t it.

Look, Crumbl (you too, Kellogg’s). I like you, but what are we doing? This seemed like a slam dunk. At no point did I ever get any real essence of a “chocolatey chip cookie.”

To start, there are barely any chocolate chips. You get a couple of poppy seeds at best. We eat with our eyes first, so give us some more chips. The pieces are smaller, denser, and less chocolatey than Cookie Crisp.

It has a pleasant aroma out of the box, but I’d equate it more to an “almondy café latte” scent than a freshly baked cookie.

Taste-wise, I just never got to the right flavor. It’s a bit synthetic and maybe a tad caramelly. The chocolate is a no-show. There’s so little that the milk barely changed color and certainly didn’t taste chocolatey.

As a cereal, it’s… “whatever.” There’s an acceptable sweetness and a good crunch, but everything is lacking. Here’s where I landed on the flavor – it’s as if they made a blueberry muffin cereal and forgot the blueberries. This tastes like “muffin.” I’m not sure there’s a market for Oops! No Berries.

On top of all that, the box is really small. It’s expensive too. I was gonna complain, but it’s exactly what I pay for a cookie, so maybe that was the plan. There ABSOLUTELY should have been a coupon for a free or discounted Crumbl cookie on the box though. Huge misstep.

This might seem like Cookie Crisp for adults, but it’s just “blah.” Bring back Officer Crumb so he can arrest whoever gave this cereal the ok.

Like their name, report cards leave off “E,” so I give Crumbl cereal a “D.”

Crumbl? More like Stumbl. No, I didn’t mumbl, you heard me – stumbl! But I like Crumbl, I swear.
