Review: Kozy Shack Indulgent Recipe Salted Caramel Pudding Cups

As I lamented in my last Kozy Shack review, I don't often buy their products because I find them to be too expensive.  Recently, Kroger printed out a coupon for me at the register at the end of my shopping trip that marked $1.75 off the price of a purchase of one of their pudding cup snack packages, so armed with that, I knew I had to make another purchase.  Last time, I also lamented that I chose what became the more boring of their new Indulgent Recipe line of puddings, so I did not make that mistake twice and instead picked up this four pack of Kozy Shack Indulgent Recipe Salted Caramel Pudding Cups for $2.14 (with coupon).  Each cup in the pack is 3.75 ounces and within that is an indulgent 200 calories.  This ain't no diet food.

Review: Kozy Shack Indulgent Recipe Chocolate Truffle Pudding Cups

I've reviewed Kozy Shack puddings on this blog previously, but I mostly stay away from them because they don't have enough new products and/or I feel that they cost too much.  That's kept me away from them for over two years.  Anyway, their products reside right next to the JELL-O pudding cups in the refrigerator case at Kroger and recently, I noticed that have a new line of puddings called "Indulgent Recipe" focusing on dessert and exotic-type flavors.  I had a digital coupon, so I decided to grab a four pack of this Kozy Shack Indulgent Recipe Chocolate Truffle Pudding Cups.  Can't remember the exact price, but I think the coupon knocked it down to about $2.25.  Each cup in the package comes in at 3.75 ounces and has 200 calories, so it's not a huge container and it's not a diet food.  Clearly, this is indulgent and a "Decadent Dessert Pudding", or so they say.

Review: Kozy Shack Crème Caramel Flan

Today's review is of a product that I've seen multiple times in the grocery store but have always been a bit hesitant to try.  I've had flan before and it was okay, but I was never sure how that would translate into a pre-packaged product that I could find in the dairy case at the store.  With that, I decided to embark on another Kozy Shack review when I saw this Kozy Shack Crème Caramel Flan on sale at $2.50 for a four pack at my local Meijer.  Each cup in the four pack is four ounces and each cup consists of 140 calories.

Review: Kozy Shack Apple Cinnamon Bread Pudding

So here we are with another review of one of Kozy Shack's bread pudding products.  I was first put on to their bread puddings and this Kozy Shack Apple Cinnamon Bread Pudding specifically in a review by Junk Food Guy, so I've tried to hold this flavor back as long as I could since he already had a review out there.  But, being the comprehensive sort that I am and I'd like this blog to be, I figured it was my turn to put in my two cents.  I picked up this four pack of 3.5 ounce cups at my friendly local Meijer on sale for $2.50 and each cup contains 150 calories per cup.  Somehow, this is also all natural, so it's got that going for it.

Review: Kozy Shack Chocolate Bread Pudding

So this review officially marks another review experience with Kozy Shack's line of bread puddings with a this review of one of their new products in that line with this review of the Kozy Shack Chocolate Bread Pudding.  Last time, I went in with high expectations and was met with disappointment, so I've tempered myself a little bit in hopes that maybe I'll be pleasantly surprised.  By the way, this comes in a four pack of 3.5 ounce cups that I picked up on sale at Meijer for $2.50.  Each 3.5 ounce cup is a fairly robust 170 calories (that's what the packaging says while the website says 150; which do I trust?), so you aren't exactly eating a super healthy treat with this one.  Much like the others, Kozy Shack also says that you can eat this either hot or cold, so I'll approach it by tasting it using both of those methods.

Review: Kozy Shack Cinnamon Raisin Bread Pudding

Bread pudding is something that I've come to later in my life.  In fact, I had never had it up until a few years ago and the first couple times I had it, I didn't really think it was all that great.  I thought it was okay, I guess, but it was nothing that particularly stirred any passion (positively or negatively) for me in any way.  That all changed when I went to St. Louis a year or so ago and went to the breakfast buffet at the Renaissance Grand Marriott in Downtown St. Louis.  On their buffet, they had some bread pudding that was one of the most unbelievably awesome things that I've ever had in my life and there is not a week that goes by these days where I don't think about it.  I'm aware it's kind of a ridiculous obsession, but it is what it is.

Anyway, after having had Kozy Shack products before, but never their bread puddings, and then seeing Junk Food Guy's review of their Apple Cinnamon bread pudding (which I had seen in the store before, but had never purchased), I knew I had to try this out and see if the Cinnamon Raisin flavor (one of my favorite flavor combinations) was better than the Apple Cinnamon version that he reviewed.  Just for review solidarity's sake, I picked up a four pack of these 3.5 ounce cups at Meijer on sale for $2.50.  Each cup is 150 calories.

Review: Kozy Shack No Sugar Added Tapioca Pudding

Not only do I have a strange infatuation with pudding, I even have a stranger love/infatuation with Tapioca pudding.  I'm not sure whether it is because I like the texture of the pudding with the Tapioca morsels in it or I just like the way that it tastes (or maybe both), but I try and get my hands on it whenever I can.  I wasn't impressed with Kozy Shack last time I tried one of their products, but when I see sugar free versions of one of my favorite types of pudding, they've got me hook, line and sinker and that's why I picked up this four pack of Kozy Shack's Sugar Free Tapioca pudding at Meijer on sale for $2.00.  Each four pack consists of four ounce cups that come it at 70 calories per cup.

Review: Kozy Shack No Sugar Added Rice Pudding

I've covered here before that I like rice pudding a lot.  It's not for everyone because of its odd texture, but I personally like it.  In terms of store bought products, the only ones I've ever had are the JELL-O pudding cup versions (Creme Brulee review is here).  I've never had any other brands and when I saw that this Kozy Shack No Sugar Added Rice Pudding was on sale at Meijer for $2.00 for a four pack (normally $3.00 or more), I was intrigued enough to make a purchase.  Each cup weighs four ounces, which makes it smaller than a JELL-O pudding cup.  On the calorie front, each pudding cup contains 70 calories.
