Did not like this flavor… I was disappointed in this being my first Huel flavor and expected them all to taste this bad. I was then pleasantly surprised at how good Cinnamon Roll was, and realized Cookies and Cream was probably a bad flavor to start off with. Banana and Vanilla are in my next order and I’m expecting them to taste much better than Cookies and Cream and on the same level as Cinnamon Roll.

I’m in the minority like you, I find this flavour unpleasant, and I’ve tried it with S&C and nothing, we’ve finished the whole bag but didn’t enjoy it… It doesn’t taste at all like cookies or cream, has a (kind of) delayed taste like some old bitter chocolate cookie, but not pleasant at all :-1:t3:

Along with Vanilla (the other popular fav) is a no-go for us… We’ve started with Banana and Berry and both are great especially Banana :banana:.

I’d recommend Salted Caramel, is the BEST by far of all the range :love_you_gesture:t3:

I imagine you mean cinnamon swirl. You see, I was the opposite, Cinnamon Swirl did nothing for me where I love cookies and cream!

Cinnamon Roll is the US version. Brant is over there.

Hah… yes, I’m in the U.S. I thought I was going crazy for a minute and had to go check to see if I meant Cinnamon Swirl, but it’s definitely Cinnamon ā€œRollā€. It’s a great flavor for me, not to sweet, but definitely a resemblance to actual cinnamon rolls in my opinion. As ViPel said above, I too agree that the Cookies & Cream had a bitter chocolate taste that wasn’t pleasant. Don’t get me wrong, I still finished the bag and enjoyed the nutritional benefit of it, I just know there are way better flavors out there now.

Cookies and cream mixed with cinnamon roll/swirl is lovely…shame we didn’t know about it before you struggled through the bag of c&c. I don’t get the bitter taste from c&c - but everyone seems different.

I see. I wonder if they taste slightly different too

I have just been trying cookies & cream BE this week as well as the Strawberry & cream one. I quite like both but will mix them together soon and give it a try.

Did you cut this with unflavoured like you usually do?

:laughing: like me with any food. I WILL finish it all!

even Durian? :slight_smile:

Can’t get within 5m of it without retching!

Actually no I didn’t, and I didn’t with the cookies and cream and strawberry and cream mix either.

Cookies and cream is actually one that I don’t find too sweet and it’s a bit too tasteless when 50/50 with uu. Salted caramel on the other hand is probably the one of the whole range I find most sweet on its own but in the combo with c&c the sweetness is much more toned down.

I guess though that I am a bit lazy. While I can quite happily mix u/u with something, ot two flavours together, if find it annoying to have to do the same with 3 different powders.

It’s a good question though and I should try a 33/33/33 or 50uu/25/25 split.

Ah fair enough! Yeah I was wondering if this was what you were doing

I think it would be a bit flavourless, but I don’t mix UU with anything :laughing:

Well @Tim_Huel funnily enough I will let you know later. For research purposes I have actually made a 30g/30g/30g Huel today of unflavoured white (don’t have any uu black at moment). black s/c and black c&c. I’ll be drinking it at lunchtime.

Right I drank that one for lunch. It is actually pretty good. On fact on personal preference it is probably better than 50/50 without the U/U.

Nevertheless, unless I am making a couple at once in my blender I think i’ll stick to 50/50 as having to measure 3 different portions at once is getting into the realms of making a proper meal.

Tasty tho.

Yeah mixing 3 precisely is effort, when we’re all just here for an easy time! I don’t have any Cookies and Cream open right now, but I’m excited about these combos.

That’s actually ready for me because I have 3 scoops in a portion :cup_with_straw:

I know. It’s not really that much more effort - it’s just getting 3 containers out rather than two. It’s definitely a winning combo if you want to try it sometime.

For people that are concerned about price look on eBay. I purchased 2 bags of BE cinnamon roll from a seller on eBay for $60 with free shipping.
It came in the exact same box with the same return address as the ones I purchased directly from Huel. It even included a shaker bottle.
7/2023 expiration vs 2/2023 expiration from Huel.
Last time I checked he was selling 2 bags for $55
