No, not in the good &#8220;Oh, my God we don&#8217;t have any Cool Whip? This is a disaster!&#8221; kind of way. It&#8217;s the &#8220;Oh! We have real whipped cream instead of Cool Whip? Nice!&#8221; kind of way. Everyone wants the real thing but will be fine with the tub of Cool Whip that&#8217;s been sitting in the freezer since last Thanksgiving. <\/p>\n<p>Kraft Heinz Foods is trying to change that by introducing new varieties of the ubiquitous dessert topping, and its latest is Cool Whip Mix-ins Birthday Cake.<\/p>\n<h3>How is it?<\/h3>\n<p>I didn&#8217;t know what to expect from this product. Birthday cake frosting can have an overpowering sweetness, and bad frosting always leaves a waxy residue on your tongue. Neither would be welcome on top of my pie. Plus, how will the sprinkles work in this context? Will I have a bunch of loose sprinkles in my mouth once the Cool Whip has dissolved? There&#8217;s a conspicuous lack of pie in my house right now, so I&#8217;ll have to try this eat this with a spoon. A finger would be more typical for me, but I decided to bring out the good silver for this review.<\/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\/2019\/05\/Cool-Whip-Mix-Ins-Birthday-Cake-Spooned.jpg?resize=600%2C450&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Cool Whip Mix Ins Birthday Cake Spooned\" title=\"Cool Whip Mix-Ins Birthday Cake Spooned.jpg\" border=\"0\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" \/><\/p>\n<p>I think this Cool Whip would work just as well on top a piece of pie as a spoon (or finger) because its flavor is subtle enough not to overwhelm anything. It has a distinct taste that&#8217;s really reminiscent of a birthday cake but won&#8217;t turn your mom&#8217;s famous apple pie into a monstrous birthday-pie hybrid. The sprinkles are more than coloring but dissolve quickly and without any waxy residue.<\/p>\n<h3>Is there anything else you need to know?<\/h3>\n<p>There are a lot of new flavors popping up these days, and I&#8217;m getting a bit confused. What exactly is unicorn flavor? Is cotton candy flavor more than just sugar? And what&#8217;s the difference between cake batter and birthday cake flavor? More importantly, how do manufacturers decide what to call their new stylishly mysterious concoctions when there are so many options?<\/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\/2019\/05\/Cool-Whip-Mix-Ins-Birthday-Cake-Top.jpg?resize=600%2C450&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Cool Whip Mix Ins Birthday Cake Top\" title=\"Cool Whip Mix-Ins Birthday Cake Top.jpg\" border=\"0\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" \/><\/p>\n<p>In this case, the Cool Whip people knew that one option was off the table: unicorn. You know why. C&#8217; mon. I can&#8217;t be the only one thinking it. Cool Whip Birthday Cake Mix-ins is exactly what unicorn&#8230; excreta.. would look like. <\/p>\n<p>Yes, unicorns are sacred, majestic, and importantly, not real animals, but they&#8217;re theoretically biological entities and need to undergo the natural biological processes such as waste removal. Now that I&#8217;ve put the thought in your head, enjoy Cool Whip Mix-ins Birthday Cake! It&#8217;s good!<\/p>\n<h3>Conclusion:<\/h3>\n<p>Cool Whip&#8217;s newest flavor threads the needle of being distinct enough from regular Cool Whip to be an enjoyable novelty without overpowering whichever dessert it&#8217;s topping.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Purchased Price:<\/strong> $1.84<br \/>\n<strong>Size:<\/strong> 8 oz. tub<br \/>\n<strong>Purchased at:<\/strong> Walmart<br \/>\n<strong>Rating:<\/strong> 7 out of 10<br \/>\n<strong>Nutrition Facts:<\/strong> (2 tbsp) 25 calories, 1.5 grams of fat, 1.5 grams of saturated fat, 0 milligrams of sodium, 3 grams of carbohydrates, 2g of Total Sugars, 2 grams of added sugar, and 0 grams of protein.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What is Cool Whip Mix-Ins Birthday Cake?
