Costco snack and sweet reviews
I never thought I’d see the day when I’d be baking fresh croissants at home! While I may never make them from scratch, these Au Pain Dore Croissants from Costco are the next best thing. They’re frozen and ready to bake, so all you have to do is pop them … Read more
Is it possible to make a truly delicious treat that’s also reasonably healthy? After reviewing a lot of different products claiming to offer this combination over the years, I can say that it is. It’s not very common though. Most of the contenders compromise on taste or nutrition or sometimes … Read more
If you’re judging desserts by the ratio of deliciousness to the number of ingredients, s’mores have to rank pretty high. The combination of graham cracker, chocolate and marshmallow is definitely greater than the sum of its parts, but I think that using a perfectly golden brown, gooey campfire-roasted marshmallow has … Read more
Costco is famous for not offering shoppers a ton of different options for a given product – for the most part, there are one or two options for each item. Chocolate chip cookies are an exception to that rule – there are the Chocolate Chunk Cookies in the Kirkland Signature … Read more

I love ice cream, I have to admit though, I’m a bit of an ice cream snob. I tend to like the fancier, more expensive ice creams – Häagen-Dazs is probably my favorite. I’m telling you this so that you know it means something when I say these Helados Mexico … Read more
I have to be honest. I prefer my cookies soft and chewy. I don’t love hard, crunchy cookies like biscotti. I do enjoy the combination of lemon and blueberry though (especially in muffins!), so I decided to give these Thinaddictives cookies from Costco a chance. Are the real fruit flavors … Read more
Ice cream is probably my favorite dessert. I’d eat it every day if it weren’t loaded with calories, fat and sugar! Thus, a low-calorie, guilt-free ice cream is pretty much my dream product. Unfortunately it’s awfully difficult to make one without sacrificing too much deliciousness. I was excited yet skeptical … Read more
