Review: Crumbl Confetti Milkshake Cookie
Bright sprinkles, sweet vanilla, and a promise of milkshake vibes—Crumbl’s Confetti Milkshake Cookie feels like a throwback to childhood celebrations. But does it actually taste like a milkshake, or just like a birthday cookie in disguise?
First Impressions
This cookie looks like fun: golden vanilla base, colorful sprinkles, and a creamy topping that signals indulgence. At first glance, you expect it to taste like a party.
Flavor Notes
The strongest flavor here is vanilla—classic, sweet, and very noticeable. But “milkshake” is where it starts to lose the thread. It’s delicious, but it doesn’t really lean into the creamy, malted, or blended quality that you’d expect from something called a milkshake cookie. Instead, it feels more like a frosted sugar cookie that happens to have sprinkles.
Texture & Sweetness
Soft, chewy, and lightly crisp on the bottom, the base is solid. The frosting is smooth, the sprinkles add crunch, and together it’s well-balanced. Where it struggles is sweetness—this is a very sweet cookie, and for some people, that will be too much.
Who It’s For
If you like frosted vanilla cookies, this will be right up your alley. If you were looking for a milkshake reimagined in cookie form, you might leave thinking it’s more “birthday cake” than “milkshake.”
Bottom Line
The Confetti Milkshake Cookie is cheerful and tasty, but doesn’t quite live up to its name. It’s a solid vanilla cookie that feels like a treat, but don’t expect that diner-style milkshake experience.
