Crumbl is known for only serving 4 flavors per week that change every week. Since they won’t come back for a while, everyone rushes to get each week’s flavors.

The Crumbl craze from TikTok and Instagram has reached Jacksonville! Within the past few months, two Crumbl franchises have opened in Jacksonville, one in Mandarin and the other on Hodges Blvd.

For the past few weeks, I reviewed each week’s flavors to give you an honest review of Crumbl. My opinion: It’s a total hit or miss. It depends on the week and its flavors. Some weeks are a 9/10 and others are a 6/10 just because of the flavors and theme. In previous visits the cookie base has been undercooked and others, baked to perfection.

To see if we could be more consistent, we decided to recreate and invent our own Crumbl cookie-inspired flavors to see if we can remake the real thing. And, we reviewed four consecutive weeks of Crumbl cookies on our Instagram and TikTok (@thebollesbugle)!
