Crumb cakes

How is it possible that Jimmy the Baker is celebrating 10 years, with a TSV that is on a lot, and NO REVIEWS of the item can be found

I want to know

Do they arrive intact?

Is the cake dry?

How do they freeze?

Are the crumbs often separated and lose in the botton of the shipping container?

@ProudMa Search Jimmy the Baker and you will find other of their crumb cakes listed that have reviews. I read them last night.

I've received these before. They are individually wrapped, fresh, not dry. They freeze very well. Crumbs stay intact. Enjoy!

if a new pack is put together, it will have a new item #. Therefore no reviews yet.

@KingstonsMom Wonder if they charged extra for the Penicillin Filling

We like his cinnamon rolls but did not care for these crumb cakes when we previously purchased them. They were dry and not really that full of flavor. I don't know why there are no reviews because I wrote one after I purchased them.

I think you would like them - I bought several times and just got sick of them. Always hated the thick top coating of crumbs = not much taste and just calories to me.

Basically I'm done with Jimmy and now buy from local bakery.

In a previous thread about this same Jimmy product, we discussed the fact that it has dozens of chemicals, and is a sad development for what were once excellent bakery products from him. In the beginning, he used butter, flour, etc.,just a few ingredients. Now he manufactures products using formulas designed to bolster shelf life, hyped flavors using artificial chemicals, etc. If you check, I believe these crumb cakes have close to 50 ingredients!

I've gotten them several times and they were always fresh and delicious with no sign of mold. There are no reviews because they constantly change the flavors and configurations, each having a different item number.

A friend of mine orders them. She said her family loves them.

I ordered today with the Lemon option. They look really yummy, and most of the comments that I have read are people who have thoroughly enjoyed them.

This is my first time ordering so hopefully mine will be delivered minus the extra dose of mold.

@fthunt. My criteria for crumb cake = the more crumbs the better. When I bake one, I double the crumbs. That's the best part.

Did you read the Nutrition info??

Fully loaded with fat, sugar, carbs and calories, all thru the roof !! And to add insult to injury they are made with bleached flour.

I always enjoy his presentations. For me his bakery items are a treat that I choose to indulge in occassionally. The crumb cakes and muffins go well with my morning cup of coffee. Looking forward to the new lemon.
