IS OVER: THE WAIT

CRUMBL COOKIES FINALLY OPENS IN TALLAHASSEE.

BY JULIA LUCK

Crumbl Cookies, one of the most well known cookie stores all around the United States, is now right here in Tallahassee. After blowing up all over the internet, everyone has been raving about these delicious cookies. On Friday, Dec. 3, Tallahassee officially opened one of Crumbl Cookies’ famous stores in Bannerman. While Crumbl may just seem like another cookie store, there is something quite special that sets it apart from the rest. Every week, Crumbl Cookies comes out with four new flavors on the menu in addition to their permanent cookies, such as classic sugar and milk chocolate chip. Now the big question arises, is Crumbl Cookies overrated?

When you first walk into Crumbl Cookies, you are greeted by pink decor. The actual store is extremely small, especially when there are numerous people inside. There is only one register, but they have two ipads where you can select and pay for the cookies of your choice, which makes the line go much faster. The service is good, even when there is a mob of people inside the store. Crumbl makes all of the cookies fresh, and you can even see them making your order while you wait. Once you get the bright, pink box of cookies, they are nice and warm and “crumbl” the second you pick them up. The entire presentation is very appealing and makes your mouth water the second you look at your delicious cookies.

The actual look of the cookies are significantly better than the taste, however. The cookies are so thick that you can only take one bite before you feel full. On top of that, the flavors for opening week left a bit to be desired.

For the opening day of Crumbl Cookies in Tallahassee, the flavors were Buttermilk Pancake, Hot Chocolate, Snickerdoodle, Milk Chocolate Chip, Red Velvet White Chip and Classic Sugar. The best cookie out of these six is by far the Red Velvet White Chip.

The cookies are a little overpriced as well. The prices of the cookies are $3.98 for a single, $13.18 for a four-pack, $19.58 for a six-pack and $34.08 for a party box which includes 12 cookies. The customer can choose which cookies they want inside each box, which makes for a nice customizable option. In terms of availability, Crumbl Cookies is very versatile. Customers have the option to have cookies delivered straight to their house, and if they do want to go inside, can opt for curbside pick up. On top of that, Crumbl also caters for big events. When catering Crumbl Cookies, you have the option of getting mini bite-sized cookies, which is a nice option for those at events who only want a small snack.

If you are in the mood for something sweet, Crumbl Cookies would be a great choice for some dessert. It may not be worth a far drive, but if you are in the neighborhood, then a Crumbl cookie could make for a tasty treat. Hopefully, there will be some new and better flavor choices in the next few weeks to make Crumbl Cookies the number one cookie shop in town.
