While delicious, I don\u2019t think that Pillsbury ever puts enough packets of it in the box. Each one is teeny-tiny, and you can only use a single packet per pastry unless you plan on eating some of them naked and unadorned. <\/p>\n<p>Setting the icing situation aside, the Toaster Strudel itself was the true star of the show. Post-toasting, each pastry was pleasingly browned and filled my kitchen with the delicious smell of cinnamon sugar, alluding to their sweet, spiced filling. Although the top of each pasty was crisp and flaky, I thought that they were a little dry and chewy on the bottom, and they would have greatly benefited from some more butter or shortening in the dough.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"display:block; margin-left:auto; margin-right:auto;\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Cinnamon-Toast-Crunch-Toaster-Pastries-Pic-7.JPG.jpg?resize=600%2C450&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Cinnamon Toast Crunch Toaster Pastries Pic  7 JPG\" title=\"Cinnamon Toast Crunch Toaster Pastries Pic #7.JPG.jpg\" border=\"0\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Luckily, the much anticipated liquid spice goo more than made up for the pastry\u2019s faults. The filling isn&#8217;t too strong, but it makes this Toaster Strudel taste genuinely reminiscent of Cinnamon Toast Crunch, ensuring that kids and adults alike will enjoy eating these for breakfast.<\/p>\n<h3>Is there anything else I need to know?<\/h3>\n<p>When you bite down onto one of these when they\u2019re fresh from the toaster, the filling is about the temperature of lava, and it will burn your mouth if you\u2019re not careful. Plus, the filling in mine had all run down to one end, leaving me with a few bites of plain dough. <\/p>\n<h3>Conclusion:<\/h3>\n<p>The Pillsbury Cinnamon Toast Crunch Toaster Strudel is a solid addition to the line. Sweet, aromatic, and true to the cereal, these are a solid breakfast choice for a chilly fall morning. <\/p>\n<p><b>Purchased Price:<\/b> $3.87<br \/>\n<b>Size:<\/b> 23.4 oz. box\/12 pastries<br \/>\n<b>Purchased at:<\/b> Walmart<br \/>\n<b>Rating:<\/b> 7 out of 10<br \/>\n<b>Nutrition Facts:<\/b> (1 pastry with icing) 180 calories, 60 calories from fat, 7 grams of total fat, 3 grams of saturated fat, 0 grams of trans fat, 0 milligrams of cholesterol, 180 milligrams of sodium, 28 grams of total carbohydrates, 1 gram of dietary fiber, 9 grams of total sugars, and 2 grams of protein.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What is the Pillsbury Cinnamon Toast Crunch Toaster Strudel?
