As I type this, fall is almost in the air, and leaves are getting ready to let gravity guide them to the ground to be raked. Popeyes is welcoming the season with its new Caramel Apple Cheesecake Cup. Although, Popeyes, who uses orange everywhere, looks like it\u2019s always welcoming autumn.<\/p>\n
According to the chicken chain, the new dessert features rich cheesecake swirled with a sweet, tangy caramel apple filling over a buttery graham cracker crust. This isn\u2019t Popeyes\u2019 first foray into pre-made cheesecakes in cups, having also offered Oreo and Strawberry flavors over the years.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
Popeyes\u2019 description didn\u2019t specifically mention the apple bits throughout the dessert. They\u2019re larger than rice grains and had a crunch you\u2019d expect from the actual fruit, but they didn\u2019t provide much flavor. To be honest, they were kind of unnecessary because the caramel apple filling did all the heavy lifting with its artificial tart fruit flavor.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
However, the level of apple varied from bite to bite. Sometimes, I got a noticeable apple and caramel flavor. Other times, I tasted more caramel than apple. And there were moments when I didn\u2019t taste any apple, just the caramel and cheesecake. As for the caramel, it looked like it could be gooey from the top, but it was not. Instead, it blended in with the cheesecake\u2019s texture. The cheesecake itself had a pleasant tang to it beyond what the filling provided, and it had a dense texture one would expect from the dessert.<\/p>\n
While the cheesecake part of the dessert was great, the crust made this dessert for me. It was buttery, mildly sweet, and gritty, contrasting texturally and flavor-wise with the sweet and tart filling. I loved it enough in this dessert that those sporkfuls I scooped out sans crust made me slightly sad.<\/p>\n
Four bucks might seem a little pricey for Popeyes\u2019 Caramel Apple Cheesecake Cup, but it was a tasty way to celebrate autumn\u2019s coming. Although I admit, the 18 grams of saturated fat makes me hesitant to eat this at the end of a Popeyes meal.<\/p>\n
Purchased Price:<\/strong> $3.99* *Because I live on a rock in the middle of the Pacific Ocean, things are a bit pricier here. You\u2019ll probably pay less than I did.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" As I type this, fall is almost in the air, and leaves are getting ready to let gravity guide them to the ground to be raked.
