New Product Review:

Marshmallow Hot Chocolate Pop-Tarts

Reviewed by Mr Breakfast on 11/26/2012

This year, Kellogg's has given us another new holiday-themed, limited edition Pop-Tart. It's full name is Frosted Marshmallow Hot Chocolate Pop-Tarts.

Made as directed (toasted once on the lowest setting)... none of the individual flavors of the pastry, the filling or the frosting stick out enough to make an impact. Instead, they combine to form a general amalgamation of near-chocolate sweetness. In other words, this product is kind of a dud. But...

Here's some advice I've never given about breakfast product... over-cook these Pop-Tarts. When the pastry is slightly over-toasted, these Pop-Tarts take on a new characteristic. You start to get the flavor of toasted marshmallow. It's still a far cry from Hot Chocolate with Marshmallows, but it is interesting and more or less enjoyable.

For the best holiday-themed Pop-Tart, go for Kellogg's Pumpkin Pie Pop-Tarts.
