REVIEW: Kellogg’s Confetti Cupcake Pop Tarts

by Junk Male · July 8, 2019

When it comes to coping with grief, I like to think I keep my emotions in check pretty well. There is absolutely nothing wrong with a good cry if that’s how your emotions surface, but I can count the times I’ve cried in my adult life on one hand (they were all ugly cries, but only because every cry is an ugly cry if you’re an ugly person like me).

The closest thing you’ll find to me crying occurs when two events happen:

  1. My favorite junk foods are discontinued.
  2. My favorite junk foods are resurrected.

Well shed those tears of joy, my friends, because Kellogg’s has heard your cries to bring back Cupcake Pop Tarts.

Now I must admit: it wasn’t me who did the crying when Confetti Cupcake Pop Tarts were discontinued. In fact, it took me about a year to notice when they were unceremoniously pulled from shelves at some point in 2016. But enough of you whined on social media to make Confetti Cupcake Pop Tarts the second-most requested flavor to return to the Pop Tarts line-up, and Kellogg’s responded not only by bringing those back, by introducing a chocolatey cousin with Chocolate Cupcake Pop Tarts.

My diet is crying a little bit too, because now I have 32 Pop Tarts to get through.


This review is part of a series. Today’s Kellogg’s Cupcake Pop Tart is:

Frosted Confetti Cupcake Pop Tarts may be simple and straightforward, but they check all the Pop Tart boxes necessary to get people’s panties in a tizzy:

  • They are frosted.
  • They have sprinkles.
  • They’re frosted and have sprinkles.

If you like sugar, it’s hard to imagine any scenario where you’re utterly disappointed with these. The primary flavor is simply “sweet”, which combines with the floury flavor of the dough to produce something a little like a store-bought yellow cake. Except this time with pastry dough, it’s more like a birthday pie.

Unpopular opinion: I enjoy pie a lot more than I do cake, so much so that I once forced my office to celebrate my birthday with pie instead. My coworkers were all SO pissed, and for that reason it was one of the best birthday celebrations I’ve ever had.

All of this said, Confetti Cupcake Pop Tarts still manage to be unspectacular in my book. Toasting them doesn’t really make sense for cupcakes but it does improve the flavor of the dough, and helps the sweetness of the filling shine a bit brighter. They share many similarities to the Sugar Cookie Pop Tarts yet are still miles behind them somehow.

Just goes to emphasize the impression that sprinkles will make on some people…


Burning Questions:

  1. Why don’t you like your coworkers? Because I work with them.
  2. What are your favorite pies? Pecan, sweet potato, pear.
  3. I bet you cry when you have sex. Jokes on you; I’ve never had sex!

Place of Purchase: Sent to me by Kellogg’s (thanks guys!)
