Cinnabon Cupcake Review and Giveaway **CLOSED

March 10, 2010 in giveaway, review

Cinnabon is celebrating 25 years of business.  And, what does a business like Cinnabon create to celebrate?  Cupcakes!image This past month, Cinnabon released their newest creations in the form of four very tasty cupcake flavors:

  • Chocolate Passion
  • 24-Carrot Cake
  • Cinnacake Classic 
  • Vanilla Bliss

    Cinnabon worked with the original creator and tested out hundreds of recipes before perfecting their cupcakes.  I’d say they did a fabulous job.  They are moist, irresistible, high quality and worthy of the Cinnabon name.

    Serious Tested:
    Delicious.  Moist.  Tasty.  Probably the best cupcakes I’ve had.  I was shocked.  My favorite was the carrot cake.  It had lots of carrot in it (I felt like it was healthy).  We tried one of each flavor.  Second was the cinnacake classic.  It is the perfect ratio of cinnamon and cream cheese icing.  Coming in a tie for third is the chocolate and vanilla.  And, I think that’s just because the other two flavors were a little more unique.
    The girls gobbled them up.  Nat’s is a crumb in her hand, and Iz was kind enough to pose before polishing hers off (and she even gobbled up the carrot cake)!

    Improvements.  None that I can possibly think of for the cupcakes.  The carrying case isn’t the best design.  The sides didn’t stay down, but they had at least accounted for that, and even with the sides open, the box didn’t break.

    Win It: Cinnabon would like to give a $20 gift card to a lucky Really, Are You Serious? reader so you can try out some of their new cupcakes.

    Really, are you serious? (Those are the bonus points for being witty.)

    You want us to pick ONE flavor?

    Well, I can't get past the look of that Cinnacake Classic cupcake. I think I could most likely look like Natalie by the time I was done, too!
