Welcome to the newest edition of the home-delivered treats; these treats are what I have ordered for delivery across the UK during the lockdown. This time, I have ordered from Thomas Cookie Co, a small artisan baker based in Kent. Thomas Cookie Co started selling their treats five years ago, and all products are made with the best ingredients. Easter products were on the menu, so I ordered the Cadbury's Creme Egg stuffed cookies, the Creme Egg Crownies (a cross between a cookie and a brownie), and the Mini Eggs cookies.
The Creme Egg cookie cups contained half a creme egg on top. I would not really call these cookie cups because they are not filled. I would have liked to have seen the Creme Egg mashed up. The cookie around the Creme Egg also tasted too dry and perhaps over-cooked instead of lovely and gooey as a cookie cup should be.
Next up are the Mini Eggs cookies. These cookies have Mini Eggs built on top of them, providing an Easter theme. Similar to the cookie cups mentioned above, I found these too dry and unfortunately inedible.
Last, we have the crownie - a blend of cookie and brownie. In the middle of the creation is a whole (or maybe a half?) Creme Egg. These ones did taste pretty good with the soft and gooey brownie texture. The cookie base was too dry, though.
What's my verdict? I would avoid this one, sadly. The cookies were much too dry and not very tasty when compared to other cookies I've eaten. The crownies were okay, but even the cookie portion of this tasted too dry. Items are baked and shipped in 24 hours, so I cannot imagine that the items were delivered out-of-date.
