Crumbl Review: Salted Caramel Cheesecake Cookie
This one is immediately in that heavier, dessert-style category. Cheesecake alone already leans rich, and when you add caramel into the mix, it has the potential to either balance really well or become too much.
The base acts like a graham-style crust again, soft but slightly structured. It gives that subtle cookie foundation without pulling focus away from the topping, which is exactly what it’s supposed to do.
The cheesecake layer is smooth, creamy, and slightly tangy. That tang is important here because it cuts through the sweetness of the caramel and keeps everything from blending into one overly sweet bite.
The caramel is where the flavour really builds. It’s rich, slightly buttery, and leans sweet, but the “salted” element helps bring it back down just enough. You don’t get a strong salty hit, but it’s enough to balance things.
When everything comes together, it’s very cohesive. You get the smooth cheesecake, the rich caramel, and the soft base all in one bite without anything feeling out of place.
Texture is very consistent — soft base, creamy topping — so it’s more about flavour layering than texture contrast.
This is definitely one of the richer cookies of the week. It’s filling, and it leans more toward a sit-down dessert than something you’d casually snack on.
Final Verdict:
A rich, well-balanced cheesecake cookie where the caramel and slight saltiness keep it from going overboard.
