Hershey's Cake & Brownie Bites

[New for Early 2025] So I actually bought these several weeks ago, but then the new ice creams started rolling in and this review got pushed down the list.

Hershey's Chocolate Cake Bites

I try to take my first bite and it's way harder to do than expected. I did not except the bars to be this dense.

If you've ever frozen a Tastykake chocolate cupcake, then you will be familiar with the texture of these bars (with the bars being more dense than the frozen Tastykake). Also, I expected (hoped for) more of a C&C vibe on this one.

I decide to try caramel next and it's funny to see them all nice and neat after the C&C crumbs went everywhere. It was a very similar experience, but now there is a caramel edge to the treat, though the chocolate still dominates the flavor.

It's certainly a fun treat. You get presented with six bars, think about how many you want, and then dive in to something that has the vibes of a frozen candy bar. I would prefer that they be less dense, but I'm not going to say that these aren't fun.

It's been at least a few weeks since I first tried there and now I'm finally trying the last flavor. Big surprise, it's tasty and reminds me of the other two. I'm still stuck on flashbacks of eating frozen tastykakes [for context, Tastykakes used to be super fresh and not have a great shelf life, so when we would come back from Pennsylvania or Jersey, we would stock up and throw a few of the boxes in the freezer so that we could enjoy them for weeks instead of just a week or two].

Anyway, I've got no complaints on these. They might feel a bit small in your hand, but like I said, they are very dense, so I don't think it should be a big deal. Just eat two if you want and go on your way. Maybe they coating could be a smidge thicker to give it a bit more of a candy bar vibe, but these are fine how they are.

On Second Scoop: I'll be slowly snacking on these for the next several weeks (or until mowing season kicks in and I polish them off as a mowing snack). I should probably try to hash out the difference between cake and brownie, but the difference is probably small.

Verdict?  solid treat
Buy Again?  if the mood hits!

caramel has the biggest stats and C&C the smallest, but all three are very similar
