Pop-Tarts are a classic little treat, and here are the best ones so far!
It’s true y’all, Pop-Tarts are a classic snack that some consider a breakfast food, while others consider it a dessert, and some just see it as a delicious sweet treat (that’s me). I could eat a Pop-Tart at literally any time of the day, which is the exact reason why I don’t have them in my house too often (unless a new or seasonal flavor comes out too, of course).
Whether you’re a fan of more chocolately or earthy flavors, or you prefer sweeter and fruitier flavors, it is 100% a very well-known fact that Pop-Tarts have you covered in all angles of the flavor spectrum that there are.
Which flavors are the best? We’ll be diving into which flavors truly take the cake here, and which ones might rank a bit lower.
*Quick disclaimer here: While this is a ranking of the Top 8 flavors of Pop-Tarts here, that does not mean that any of these are bad or the worst. All Pop-Tarts were created equal and none were harmed during this research, I promise you that.*
If you’re a huge fan of any of the ones that have made the list, be sure to drop us a comment down below.
In addition, if you hate any of these flavors and suggest that we might’ve missed a few on this list, then also be sure to let us know down below so we can debate about all-things Pop-Tarts related.
Let’s dive into the bottom of the list of Pop-Tarts first, working our way up
8. Strawberry Milkshake
Now, for me personally, I am not a fan of strawberry-flavored things at all (given that I’m allergic to fresh strawberries, so naturally, I don’t like flavors like that or combined with anything else); however, this one was actually pretty good.
The thing that got me the most on this one was the frosting on the Pop-Tart itself. For some reason, it just tasted really really good. The filling itself, while it wasn’t my favorite flavor, still was good enough to present itself on this list, coming in at #8. And of course, the rainbow sprinkles are just the perfect top off to this super sweet treat.
7. Pretzel: Cinnamon Sugar
Here’s one of Pop-Tarts newest flavor creations, and boy is it delicious. There’s also a chocolate flavor of the pretzel version; however, I have yet to try it, but rest assured, I’m sure it’s delish if you haven’t gotten a chance to try it yourself.
One good thing about this particular flavor of Pop-Tarts is that while it does have that signature and classic pretzel salt on the outside of the Pop-Tart, it’s not too salty, so no worries on that one here.
This flavor also takes one of Pop-Tart’s most classic and fan-favorite flavors, Cinnamon Sugar, and elevates it that much further, as if it didn’t already need it on its own.
These next two Pop-Tarts flavors are fruity and some of the most delish ones
6. Raspberry
Personally, if you ask me, I feel that anything raspberry-flavored tends to get overlooked and is very underrated (but then again, that’s just my own personal opinion, and you all have your own).
This particular flavor of Pop-Tart is the perfect combination of frosting and filling. The raspberry-flavored jelly on the inside pairs pretty darn perfectly with the white vanilla frosting on the outer layer. This for me is one of the most perfect of dessert treats, along with many others; however, this raspberry one just does it for me.
5. Cherry
Now with a quick little disclaimer here, yes, I’ve heard that this one tastes a bit medicinal; however, I totally disagree with anyone who says that and no one will ever be able to change my mind, ever.
With the pink frosting on the outside and the sugary-red sprinkles to top it all off, this flavor of Pop-Tart is just what you need to start or end your day for that matter. Now, in my personal opinion, this particular flavor tastes even better toasted or warm, so get your toasters ready, folks!
Coming in hot are the next two flavors of Pop-Tarts sure to be faves of yours too
4. Hot Fudge Sundae
Over time, my flavor favorites have changed, but not that much really. Years and years ago, this was my personal favorite flavor that I would almost always ask my parents for at the grocery store every single time.
This flavor’s got vanilla frosting on the outside, mixed with a delish swirl of fudge frosting, all topped off together with some rainbow sprinkles. Best part? The inside filling part truly does taste like someone slapped on some canned frosting, which we all know, love, and obsess over. Yumm-ohh!
While this one is still super delicious and the perfect partner to a nice ice-cold glass of milk, my taste for a certain fruit being my favorite has grown stronger and stronger, and you’ll see more about that later in the next slide.
3. Chocolate Chip
If you’ve ever seen this Pop-Tart or had one for yourself, it might look much like the unfrosted varieties that just don’t taste the same; however, you’d be sadly mistaken to pass this flavor up. I mean, it is in my top 3, right?
Anyways, this particular flavor doesn’t have frosting covering the whole thing, but the rich chocolatey filling, mixed with the chocolate fudge icing swirls is just the perfect bunch together to make for the perfect pastry.
In my opinion, sure this one goes super well with milk; however, it also does well dipped in a nice hot (or iced if you don’t like hot) cup of coffee as well! Either way, eat and drink up, y’all!
The top two Pop-Tarts, while the rest are good, could be the only ones to exist and I’d be a happy gal
2. Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough
Now, this particular flavor variety of Pop-Tarts takes the previous flavor of Chocolate Chip and elevates it just about a million percent more, so what more could we ask for it, am I right? Anyways, yes, you heard it right y’all, this Pop-Tart has one of the most delicious cookie dough-flavored fillings, all in between two frosted cookie crusts, which couldn’t be more drool-worthy if ya ask me!
All in all, dip this in a glass of milk, warm it up and toast it, and sit down, relax and just simply enjoy it all!!
1. Blueberry
Here’s what you’ve all been waiting for since reading all about the Hot Fudge Sundae Pop-Tarts...my most favorite fruit is Blueberries, meaning that I love literally and legitly anything blueberry-flavored, including Pop-Tarts, which of course makes them my most favorite flavor to top this list off at #1.
It’s got the perfect combination and ratio to filling to frosting and the tiny little sugary-like sprinkles to make it that much more special. Trust me, if someone made my next birthday cake (it’s in January in case you wanna make it for me) out of these, I wouldn’t need anything more the rest of the year, rest assured!
For a little honorable mention here, the Cookies and Cream Pop-Tarts are delicious! Don’t get me wrong. However, if Pop-Tart were to read this and redo the recipe with an actual Oreo cookie-flavored crust, it would be so much and that much even more delish really!
