These are Little Debbie\u2019s attempt to corner the market on treats made specifically for Mother\u2019s Day. They come in strawberry and lemon, and lemon is the only lemon-flavored product available from Little Debbie. I\u2019m not sure what strawberry and lemon have to do with Mother\u2019s Day, but at least the cakes don\u2019t taste like Mom.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
These have the same textures as most Little Debbie products: cheap, plasticky coating; a super-sweet, oily filling; and dry-ish cake. <\/p>\n

The lemon variety has a powerful scent when I open it; the strawberry is less pronounced, but it still has a fruity smell. I really can\u2019t tell what part of the cake is flavored, whether it\u2019s the filling or the cake. The lemon has a nice citrusy taste, but it\u2019s not spectacular \u2014 Little Debbie played it safe. The strawberry has more of an artificial flavor, but I actually like it better. If they were bite-sized, I could mindlessly eat 500 calories worth. Again, not spectacular, but it is yummy.<\/p>\n
Since these are marketed for Mother\u2019s Day, I had to get the opinions of mothers. My sister agreed with my take on both flavors. My mom agreed with my take on the lemon, but she thought the strawberry was equal to it, not better. <\/p>\n
These are typical Little Debbie fare with fun new flavors. They should not be your only Mother\u2019s Day gifts, but they would be an acceptable supplement. If you\u2019re Cinderella or Snow White and all you have is a wicked stepmother, they would be more than generous.<\/p>\n
