I purchased a box of these......
They come six to a box (Said box could easily hold another six!) with six small packets of frosting. I purchased the strawberry cream cheese ones. In the way of packaging and marketing the actual strudel's are smaller than displayed on the package. And that is a miniature strawberry next to the strudel itself.
If you hold up your hand and make an "L" shape with four finger and thumb, the corner of the strudel will fit inside that "L" shape...with the finger knuckle left over.
Four small bites at best....but remarkably tasty bites!
The pastry itself is a modified puff pastry, lots of something that passes easily for butter.
The filling, is a mere trace of strawberry not the generous amount displayed on the package but tasty nevertheless.
Toast in toaster oven for one cycle, if you tear the frosting package just right the entire side will open for spreading. It is impossible to make the artistic swirls unless you actually fill a miniature pastry bag and hand it over to a trained pastry chef.
Cost? I didn't look, but for six of these things I think it runs about $2.50 per box. I will try to be a better consumer next time as these little devils are highly addictive.
