Nestle Butterfinger Dipped Drumsticks


[New for end of 2014] A couple of you have asked for drumstick reviews so I apologize for taking so long. I've gotten in the habit of not bringing drumsticks home anymore because of nuts (and nut cross-contamination), so I've been waiting to snag them from the Target near work. Now for the butterfinger variety, you can buy the 8 pack that also includes a chocolate and fudge filled versions, but since it's just me eating these, I picked up the four pack of...

Nestle Butterfinger Dipped Drumstick Sundae Cones
chocolatey coating with BUTTERFINGER bits

Drumstick has always been good about labeling their products 
(since they often come in mixed varieties).

I forgot how small these things look nowadays.

I take a bite and it's definitely butterfinger flavored. You get the chocolate from the shell but there's definitely that unique butterfinger filling flavor going on as well. The cool thing is that flavor is coming from both the shell and the ice cream itself.

See, orange ice cream! Not crazy butterfinger orange, but orange none the less. It's a very light ice cream and provides minimal resistance to my chomping.

It's a shame the whole cone doesnt have a thicker chocolate coating because at the end when you get the crunch of the cone with the flavor of the ice cream and the chocolate nugget it's a really a neat combo (aka #FunFactor).

Overall a fine treat on a beautiful day, but as always, I could go for a second one because they just aren't that filling anymore (notice that it doesn't say "ice cream" anywhere).

(I'll have to take better pictures for the Second Scoop, sun was a bit bright today)

Verdict?  As described
Buy Again?  on occasion

  2. I wonder if ShopRite has them? I ask because I don't have a Target near me and they look tasty!

  5. Got some at Publix and they're stale. They also taste like nothing. Super bland.
