I first met the Katz brand on one of my very hungry days in my 2nd trimester of my pregnancy. I was meandering through my local health food store scouting out new and potentially delicious gluten free products when I zoned in on these delicious looking chocolate cupcakes covered in chocolate frosting and sprinkles. While I was pregnant, the baking me kind of took a back seat, so you can understand my excitement when these little beauties came into my sight. Selling for about $5.99 for a pack of 4 cupcakes I was willing to give them a try and I was so glad that I did!
These cupcakes are divine. The chocolate cake portion is textured more like a moist brownie which I am a huge fan of. Atop the cupcake is a thin layer of sweet chocolate frosting, just enough to add a sweet frosty finish to the cupcake. Finally, what cupcake is complete without sprinkles; so to finish theirs off, Katz has dusted half of the frosted cupcake tops with sprinkles. And let me just add that these sprinkles are the good kind, the long, soft sprinkles that add a little extra something to your bite! My only complaint, is that I wish that the whole cupcake top was covered in those delicious sprinkles! Ever since I was little, I always loved sprinkles on top of cookies, cupcakes, cakes, you name it, it was sprinkled. More sprinkles, the better! Such a perfect finish to a sweet treat!
Over the past few years, I’ve tried my fair share of gluten free cupcakes. Overall, the mixes that are available now produce exceptional products and are becoming more affordable as more brands join in. As fantastic as the mixes are, however, every pregnant woman would agree that there are certainly days that go by that you would love to just bite into a perfect pastry without having to make it yourself. Unfortunately, when it comes to purchasing premade gluten free desserts like cupcakes they tend to really lack in the texture department and usually fall apart after just one bite. I’m so happy to share that Katz products have become the exception to this trend! I must say, it was worth every penny to purchase these premade cupcakes that I could enjoy each and every bite of from start to finish without them crumbling apart, thanks to their brownie texture!
Similar to many of their other products, these cupcakes should be stored in the freezer and therefore have an extended expiration date. This is an added bonus if you wish to take advantage of one of Katz’s many special offers and buy these ahead of time for a special event or just to stock up on treats for the little ones for months to come. When you’re ready to enjoy these, you only have to pop one (or two!) out of the freezer and either take a bite right away or let it thaw for a few short minutes!
Like I mentioned earlier, I purchased these from a small, local health food store for about $5.99. Unfortunately, Katz products aren’t easy to find in stores locally around me so I typically order their products online. On their website, Katz offers a pack of 4 frosted cupcakes for $5.79. A plus with ordering from the website is the amazing promotions that Katz frequently offers. Many a time, I’ve purchased products with significant discounts paired with their flat rate shipping fee of only $7.99 for purchases under $50 (free for orders over $50!). So sign up here today for emails for their new products, coupons, and company information and keep an eye out for sales on products that you’d like to try or have already fallen in love with!
If you’re interested in ordering these cupcakes, you can find all of their nutritional information here (these are also dairy and nut free too!)! While you’re there, make sure you check out many of their other fantastic products, such as their everything bagels or chocolate frosted donuts. To catch a sneak peak at these items, check out my bagel review here and donut review here.
As you probably have learned from several of my other product postings, I am a huge fan of Katz’s products and truthfully can say that they helped me through many a pregnant day! Not once have I purchased a product of theirs and come away with any ounce of disappoint. So take advantage of their many special offers and indulge in these special chocolaty delights!!
Sincerely,
Lindsay
