Quick Bites are rapid-fire reviews without the lame story.
Have you ever done something so well that you muttered “Crushed It!” to yourself?
Nestle is REALLY proud of their latest products…
Nestle Crushed It! Cones
Nestle Crushed It Bars
Description: Nestle Drumstick Crushed It! Cones and Nestle Drumstick Crushed It! Bars take their popular Drumstick products and swap out the dipped chocolatey coating with a new, melt-in-your-mouth crushed cookie coating. That’s right… the outside is finely crushed cookie crumbs rolled into a rich chocolatey coating.
Oreo… meet Drumstick. ?
Nestle Crushed It! Cones
The Crushed It! Drumstick Cones come packaged with two flavors: Vanilla Fudge and Cookies ‘N’ Creme.
First is Vanilla Fudge, which features a fudge center in the middle of the vanilla ice cream. One bite into the new cookie coating and I got a wave of Oreo vibes. The coating tastes a lot like chocolate Oreo wafers, while the “meh” vanilla ice cream substitutes partially as an Oreo creme replacement (it’s not as sweet).
The coating is quite good, although it started to taste less like cookies on subsequent bites.
The “fudge center” is so small it’s basically pointless.
The Cookies ‘N’ Creme has more flavor overall and would be my recommendation between the two. It seems redundant and silly to put more cookies crumbs inside the ice cream, but the ice cream itself carries more flavor than the Vanilla Fudge and it really drives home the cookie angle they were trying to spotlight here.
Nothing new, but I love the Drumstick waffle cones with their fat chocolatey nugget on the bottom and the entire inside laced in chocolatey coating.
A delectable treat as Drumstick Cones always are.
Nestle Crushed It Bars
If waffle cones aren’t your thing, just go for the straight cookie-covered bar.
The bars only come in Cookies ‘N’ Creme and allow you to appreciate the impressive new cookie coating for a longer period of time.
I enjoy how thick the cookie crumb coating is. I also consider the texture an upgrade over the normal waxy, hard shell (and don’t get me wrong… I love those crisp shells too.) The cookie crumbs are so compressed and perfectly fixed to the ice cream that they don’t crumble off and make a mess, so that’s a plus too.
Gotta admit… Nestle crushed their Crushed It! bars.
Burning Questions:
- What did they crush? It!
- How many cookies were harmed in the making of these treats? A lot!
- What’s better, the coating or the nugget? Always the nugget.
