A couple of months ago, my wonderful Father brought over a box of Kellogg’s Frosted Blueberry Pop Tarts for me to enjoy. It had been quite a while since I last ate these pastries and now I’m very glad that I had the opportunity to try them again. Maybe it’s just my imagination, but these pastries tasted much better than they used to, to me.
The pastries are pleasant – tasting, with a nice texture and the blueberry filling is juicy and loaded with real blueberry flavor. A delightful frosting tops these treats, with little multi – colored sprinkles added for extra flavor. Kellogg’s Frosted Blueberry Pop Tarts are conveniently – packaged in sealed pouches that can be taken anywhere. I am so impressed with these blueberry pastries, that I have decided to write a product review of them.
Presented here, as a service to the consumer at large, is one food writer’s product review of Kellogg’s Frosted Blueberry Pop Tarts.
Size
The net weight of the standard – sized package of Kellogg’s Frosted Blueberry Pop Tarts is 14.7 ounces. The box contains eight pastries, each of which is one serving. I think that this serving size is realistic. Usually, when I eat these tasty pastries, one of them is just enough to satisfy my appetite. In physical size, the box is not too big and does not take up excessive storage space.
Price
The regular retail price charged for one 14.7 ounce box of Kellogg’s Frosted Blueberry Pop Tarts at Hartford,, Connecticut area supermarkets is approximately $2.50. I think that this price is very reasonable, especially considering the great flavor, number of servings and overall high quality that these pastries offer.
Texture
The texture of Kellogg’s Frosted Blueberry Pop Tarts is one of the factors that makes eating them so enjoyable. These pastries are soft, yet they maintain a firmness that gives them a sense of bite. The pastry part is fairly light and flaky, the blueberry filling is moist and somewhat – juicy and the frosted topping adds another dimension of texture that is accentuated by little flavor sparkles that adorn the frosting. All put together, the various textures in Kellogg’s Frosted Blueberry Pop Tarts create a great product that offers a satisfying mouth – feel. Also, the texture of these pastries changes, if they are heated, or toasted.
