SHOPPERS are going wild for Trader Joe’s new cake pops in the vein of Starbucks’ viral treat – but fans have spotted an important missing detail.
The coffee powerhouse took the internet by storm with their cake bite deserts – but Trader Joe’s have had to leave out a key element – and fans aren’t happy.
A TikTok account filmed a reaction video to the Trader Joe’s version, which in packs, and her opinion did not paint the new treat in a good light.
Upon taking a bite, the reviewer called it “disgusting” and stopped eating it.
The comment section was quick to pick up on her dislike of the Trader Joe’s alternative.
One person said: “Gooodbyeeee my exact reaction when I had these.”
A second wrote: “I had to double check it wasn’t a dog treat.”
Another food review this time on Instagram shared that the desert was a “no” for her.
She descibred them as very sweet and smelling like vanilla.
THE MISSING PIECE
But there was more that surprised people than the taste – as they were quick to pick up on a staple of the Starbucks cake pop that is missing in the duplicate.
The stick is missing from the Trader Joe’s product, instead coming in a regular pack, removing the pick-up-and-go feel of the original snack.
But, this version is better value for money.
While a single Starbucks cake pop costs $3.25, the Trader Joe’s pack sells at $3.99.
They are also healthier alternatives for those still looking to get the sugar rush.
On average, Starbucks’ cake pops contain 160 calories and 16 grams of sugar.
One of the Trader Joe’s Sprinkle Cake Bites has 120 calories and 13 grams of sugar.
