Red Velvet Cream Cheese Sandwich "Worth The Wait"


This was delivered by Xend and was wrapped in a box and a bubble wrap  to secure  the  crinkles. On the note it says "baked with butter and love" and "enjoy" which I really did. I had this for dessert after eating lunch. 


I was excited like a kid when I got a package from Xend today. It was my much-awaited red velvet crinkles or red velvet cream cheese sandwich. It's been a month or two when I saw posts in Instagram pictures of this yummy sweets. I've been following a lot of online sellers who got sweet stuff such as chocolates, cakes, candies, and the like. Some red velvet crinkles are quite expensive plus the shipping fee so I checked #redvelvet crinkles hashtag on Instagram and cheked all online shops who sell these. I came accross Posh Dessertz who has the cheapest red velvet sweets plus she could send it through Xend which is one of the cheapest courier in Manila.

Red velvet has been my favorite for years now. I started my red velvet addiction with cakes and cupcakes. I'm pretty sure you've seen a lot of these online, restaurants, shops, and malls. Red velvet could be either dark red or red brown in color. The reddish color that we see is achieved by adding beetroot or red food coloring.                                                                                                                                    
20 pcs of red velvet cream cheese sandwich for only Php150.00 plus Php60.00 shipping fee
I still have some and put in a fridge. I'm thinking these could also taste really good if refrigerated.

PROS: 
  • These really taste like red velvet. There's a hint of vanilla and chocolate but it's not really a vanilla or a chocolate sandwich.
  • I could taste the buttermilk too!
  • This was picked up by Xend from the Posh Dessertz yesterday but it's still moist which makes it still fresh.
  • If you don't like too sweet desserts (those who just tastes like sugar) then this could be for you.
  • Cream cheese is sweet, salt, and milky, just a perfect mix.

CONS:
  • This is high in fat content so if you're worrying too much about that then this may not be your pick!
I strongly suggest that you try these and let me know what you think by commenting on this post! Suggestions and other point of views are welcome too! Even if you are on a diet, at least try few pieces of these.
