So I was excited to see Starbucks had a new Frap out for the holidays and I finally tried the Cranberry Bliss Bar... which I never thought I'd like but it was one of Gayle's favorite things in Oprah Magazine... and you know I love Gayle King- so I needed to give it a try!
Christmas Tree Frappuccino
This is the best of the special limited edition frap that I've tried recently... and I like the Unicorn Frap and the Zombie Frap. This tasted like a mint candy. Like the inside of a Lindor Mint Truffle... that's what this tasted like. And on top they had a Matcha Whipped Cream, Dried Cranberry, and a Strawberry! The cranberry on top of the whipped cream was DELICIOUSLY Sweet and crunchy... it was perfect. I didn't end up eating the Strawberry on Top, but it did really make the frap look like a christmas tree.
It was a really delicious combo of Mint and then when you got some of the Matcha Whipped Cream it was really nice... and then at the end I just got mostly Whipped Cream and Cranberry and it just tasted amazing! I really enjoyed this frapp... hopefully I'll be able to get it again before it runs out... but it is just an awesome frap.
Cranberry Bliss Bar
This I had been hesitant to try because I don't know how I feel about Cranberry in a dessert... but as it turns out this is a really nice, sweet dessert-y snack!
The frosting on it is really nice and creamy, the cake is very soft and sweet and again... the dried cranberries at Starbucks are just deliciously sweet for some reason... not getting as much crunch from it... mine was a little squished today... so maybe that is why... but still its a really nice, soft cakey treat and I enjoy it. I got it yesterday for the first time, today I'm having a second one. They have these in packs so that you could bring it to the office or to a holiday party or as a gift or something... you could eat these Christmas Morning with your family and that would be really nice.
It's just a great bar! I like it a lot! Starbucks has a lot of good treats around the holidays too. The Peppermint Brownie Cake Pops are also a great one to try... so yeah! Hope you guys like it and I'll see you tomorrow with another Less Christmas-y Scribbles About Food!
Byeee!
