Trader Joe’s trawberries & Cream Cloud Cake – $6.49

Cool Desserts • LIMITED TIME

The TL;DR: Made in Sweden, this “sweet ode to summer floats somewhere between a nostalgic strawberry shortcake and an elegant treat from a European pâtisserie.” Two layers of moist sponge cake, creamy custard filling, fluffy whipped cream, and a generous pile of sweet & saucy strawberries with additional dollops of whipped cream. Basically cloud nine in cake form.

The Busy Parent Reality: Serves six and comes frozen—simply defrost in the fridge overnight and it’s ready to go with NO baking or assembly required. Perfect for birthday parties, brunches, potlucks, picnics, bridal showers, and “I forgot I needed dessert” emergencies.

Cool Desserts • June-August Only

The TL;DR: From an esteemed Italian supplier comes the gelato shop experience in your freezer!

Mix, match, and enjoy in any combination you’d like.

The Busy Parent Reality: Serves spectacularly well right out of the tub, but also “stuns when sandwiched between two cookies” and makes an “unforgettable affogato when topped with a shot of espresso.” Basically, it’s fancy enough for company but easy enough for Tuesday night dessert emergencies.

Dietary Detective Work: ❌ Not vegan (it’s literally called “flower of milk”) // ✅ Vegetarian friendly // ⚠️ Contains nuts (pistachio) // ✅ Summer availability only (June-August)
