Comparing two different brands of the same dessert
Many companies will create a box mix for the same dessert with their individual spins on it. You can go into the store looking for a boxed brownie mix and find yourself surrounded by different brands and no way to know which is best. Maybe you’ve tried this brand and liked it but you’ve never ventured to that brand because what if it’s worse? You might have picked a mix for the packaging and you may have picked it for the price but is there any way to know if it is the best or if better is sitting right next to it?
Follow me in this journey where I pickup two brands of the same dessert and compare them side by side to see which one is the better mix.

Trying out Krusteaz’s Almond Poppy Seed muffin mix
While I do favor chocolate based desserts, I know that is not everyone’s cup of tea and only covers a small range of desserts. During my most recent box mix hunt I made sure to grab things that are outside of my normal range. Almond Poppy Seed muffins aren’t new or strange, they’re a pretty…

Trying out Junket’s Dark Chocolate Gelato box mix
I found a box mix for ice cream, technically gelato, at my local Smith’s and was very surprised, I’ve never seen this before. I do have an ice cream machine and often make homemade ice creams and frozen custards but I haven’t considered a box mix for it. Junket has multiple flavors of ice cream…
