That\u2019s the best thing about the product \u2014 and its biggest weakness at the same time. I guess the question is how much of a cream cheese-to-strawberry-flavoring-to-fried-dough ratio you prefer. I\u2019d argue that it\u2019s probably something like 45 percent cream cheese, 45 percent fried dough and 10 percent strawberry. As powerful as the strawberry scent may be, the overall product doesn\u2019t taste <em>that<\/em> much like the fruit it\u2019s imitating. Granted, it\u2019s more flavorful than a generic grocery store brand strawberry doughnut hole, but the gap <em>isn\u2019t<\/em> as wide as you might anticipate.<\/p>\n<p>The good news about these Delights is that they\u2019re perfect for instant gratification snacking. Alas, it\u2019s such a mild recalculation of the standard Cinnabon Delight formula that it kind of feels like an unnecessary field trip. If you already love the product, you\u2019re more than likely going to love these, but if you\u2019re not a fan, I doubt these strawberry variants will win you over.<\/p>\n<p>The price point is the real backbreaker here. For two Delights you can literally destroy in ten seconds, it\u2019s a bit expensive, especially considering it almost costs as much as some full-sized cereals. With this particular product, Taco Bell is obviously pitching to people who already enjoy the regular Delights. It\u2019ll likely please them, but newcomers might be a little disappointed in how <em>non-special<\/em> this special edition dessert tastes.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Purchased Price:<\/strong> $7.39<br \/>\n<strong>Size:<\/strong> 12-pack<br \/>\n<strong>Rating:<\/strong> 6 out of 10<br \/>\n<strong>Nutrition Facts:<\/strong> (One piece) 80 calories, 6 grams of fat, 2 grams of saturated fat, 0 grams of trans fat, less than 5 milligrams of cholesterol, 35 milligrams of sodium, 7 grams of carbohydrates, 0 grams of fiber, 4 grams of sugar (includes 4 grams of added sugar), and less than 1 gram of protein.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Taco Bell\u2019s new Strawberry Cinnabon Delights are simply a mild variation on the Cinnabon Delights we\u2019ve been eating at the chain for years now.
