![]() But, if these doughnut holes successfully hit Taco Bells across the nation, then, by all means, please the child inside of you. I wouldn’t say the drive to Bakersfield is worth it for one of these babies. It’s like eating a bowl of cereal with spoiled milk. But, the Cap’n Crunch Delights will strike your tastebuds with some childhood memories, and that’s worth spending a couple of dollars for.Įverything about the doughnut is just right except for the icing. ![]() And no, these doughnuts are not going to make it on your morning must-haves. No, these doughnuts will not replace your usual bowl of Cap’n Crunch Berries. If it’s just milk flavoring, then some serious work needs to be done on the recipe.Įither way, something has to be done about that icing. If it’s real milk being used, then there has to be some sort of way to utilize or preserve that milk flavor. I began questioning the “milk” part of the recipe. Could it be that particular Taco Bell’s fault, or was it the recipe? I honestly can’t tell if that tangy after taste is part of the recipe or if my batch of doughnuts were filled with icing that’s been basking in the Bakersfield sun. The milk icing has an unforeseen tanginess that tastes absolutely wrong. Taco Bell senior director of brand marketing Amanda Clark told ABC News that the idea for Cap’n Crunch came in mind when trying to incorporate cereal and “nostalgic brands from childhood” into their breakfast menu. It’s like a childhood party in your mouth.Īnd that’s what Taco Bell hoped for. A little bit of Cap’n Crunch, a little bit of Berries and a little bit of doughnut. The best part is that it tastes exactly like Cap’n Crunch Berries cereal. It’s not overwhelmingly sweet, but it’s acceptable for the casual sweet tooth. When warm, it’s extremely soft in the middle and shares the same mouthfeel as a regular ol’ doughnut. The doughnut itself is surprisingly not that bad. ![]() But someone has to do the job, right? Cereal crumbles on my fingers! I also started to realize that the Cap’n Crunch Delights was one of those foods that are look too good to eat. The treat is on the messy side, yet I wouldn’t say it’s finger licking worthy. Touching just one of them left a small crust of cereal on your fingers. Four pink little doughnut holes (one of them is covered, I swear!) I initially found it hard to believe they came from a Taco Bell. Inside were four pink-colored doughnut holes in a slightly larger-than-average size. Two dollars and 10 minutes later, I was presented with a 4-pack of Cap’n Crunch Delights. Taco Bell in the middle of nowhere! Note the sign on the window. However, Taco Bell’s newest dessert was and still is in testing mode Cap’n Crunch Delights are currently being piloted in select Bakersfield locations.Īnd, fortunately for me, I happened to come across one of them. The media caught a whiff of them a few weeks ago after Foodbeast received an exclusive look at the “fast food cereal” (their words, not mine.) Afterwards, social media shared their typical judgments, with most people excited to try the chain’s creation. That was until I saw the sign for the Cap’n Crunch Delights posted on the window.Ĭap’n Crunch Delights are essentially Cap’n Crunch Berries cereal-flavored doughnut holes crusted with cereal dust and filled with milk-flavored icing. But I had to think it through: would I dare enjoy Mexican fast food before hitting the road for another three hours? Probably not a good idea. Not the grandest of options, but an option nonetheless. Wendy’s? Chili finger (I’m aware it was fake, but you gotta admit that it’s a disgusting thought.) Nothing but nothing for miles.Īfter a restroom layover, I peered around, looking at my available fast food options. After driving for a couple of hours, I figured I could go for something to snack on, so I headed for the next available exit.Īh, the grand city of Lost Hills, Calif. I was taking the 5 Freeway back home on Sunday after a brief trip to the Bay Area when a few passengers in my car had to use the restroom.
