A not so carrot-y carrot cake |
5/14/2020 |
| So, I was a bit afraid that this tea would taste very carroty. Not that carrot cake tastes super carroty. It... It kind of tastes like the Walnut Coffee Cake one... Only no walnut taste. So...a cake-y taste.
Overall, eh, its nice but not amazing.
This tea promises you a fancy tea party, but really it's just cake. |

| I thought I was going to love this tea, since so many others have. However, I found that while it has a light, smooth, and refined taste, the flavor is not as powerful as other flavored teas I have ordered. I still like this tea and will drink all that I have purchased, it is just something I may not purchase again. I like a stronger flavored tea. |

Wonderful carrot cake substitute |
10/5/2019 |
| Instead of eating a piece of carrot cake, I just brew a cup of this tea. It captures the essence of carrot cake with a rich, spicy flavor with a hint of creaminess. I brew it a little longer than 5 minutes so that I can have a stronger flavored cup of tea and it doesn't become bitter or overwhelming. |

| The Carrot Cake Cupcake Green Rooibos Tisane has a wonderful flavour. It tastes just like carrot cake. However it is somewhat weak, almost like a green tea. I think that if the flavour were a little more BOLD it would otherwise be perfect. I will buy more. I just find myself using double the amount to get the full flavour that I want. |

Verry Yummy Tea! |

| This tea really does taste like dessert! I usually don't like rooibos tea's that much, but this one is very nice. It has good flavor, it has a nice sweet spice to it, and it really does remind you of carrot cake! I really like that the sweetness comes from the dried fruit in the tea, since that reminds me of having raisins in a carrot cake. It is a very nice tea! |

| I adore this tea! I just tried it tonight after dinner, and I was sold on it just from the scent when opening the bag. The tea is deliciously balanced, and the earthiness from the carrot is spot on. It's also not overly sweet, which I appreciate. I added a bit of creamer for body, but it's fantastic on its own! |

One of the best teas I have ever tasted! |
1/20/2019 |
| I have been on the hunt for great teas for years, as I am an avid tea drinker, and I can honestly say that this tea not only tastes amazing, but it is extremely satisfying to have at night when you are having dessert cravings. As soon as I opened the bag, the smell that wafted out made my mouth water. I also ordered the Brownie and got a free Black Chai sample, both of which are absolutely delicious. My stepfather, who is also an avid tea drinker, tried this tea and was raving about how delicious it smelled and tasted. A 2 oz. tea from the market near my house is double to triple the price of these teas and doesn't even taste nearly as good. I could not recommend S&V's teas enough. I am a forever customer! |

Not sure how they did this.... |

| I'm on a strict weight loss diet, so the dessert line appealed to me. I love tea, and a lot of times a good cup of tea can satisfy my cravings for something sweet. This is RIDICULOUS! It tastes just like carrot cake.... I have no idea how they did it, but it's amazing! One to reorder, for sure. |

It's a carrot cupcake! |

| I drink so much of this one. The carrot flavor is super accurate, and the spices are muted, but tasty. You can rebrew the same leaves and get an equally tasty second cup. Man, I'm at work writing this review, and I can't wait to get home and drink some more of this tea! |

Carrot Cake Cupcake Tea ! :-) |

| Such a fun idea to put the flavorings of carrot cake into tea. This amazing herbal tea tastes delicious desserty. |

Definitely carrot! |

| If you like snacking on baby carrots, you will love this tea. The carrot flavor comes through super strong with a bit of spice. I would have liked a little more spice, but it's still very good. I usually put sugar in my first steep, and when I resteep the leaves, I don't include sugar, and honestly, it's great both ways. I'm always craving this tea! |

A Little Spicy |
10/27/2018 |
| This is a good-tasting tea. I do wish it was a bit more spicy! Although I really do not like carrot cake, I do like this tea. With the subtle spiciness plus a bit of sugar, stevia or honey, it is a very delicious tea. But, more spice, please!! |

Carrot cupcake |
7/26/2018 |
| This does really taste like a carrot cupcake minus the cream cheese frosting. It’s very tasty with a bit of sugar. I think it would make a great latte. I don’t like it as much as the snickerdoodle rooibos but it’s still a very good tea. Especially if you like carrot cake. |

Tastes just like the cupcake! |

| Love it. Tastes just like a carrot cake cupcake. I've been drinking this after dinner and don't need to eat any dessert. This fills that craving |

Very subtle flavor, not too spicy |
10/28/2017 |
| I generally like the unique nature of the S&V dessert teas, and while this one is certainly something I've never had before, the flavor was pleasant but a bit mild for me. I expected the tea to be a bit spicier...didn't really look for "carrot" flavor (and didn't get it), but was looking for the spice blend I associate with the cake. Instead, it's got a very mild cinnamon flavor, which is nice, but not as kicky as I prefer. Still a good tea though! |

| I tried this one from my mother-in-loves collection and was delighted! I love the taste of carrot cake, but have a hard time with the texture, and icing proportions, and of course those raisins. This was definitely carrot cake in a cup! I was so happy to be able to enjoy the spicey sweet of dessert without having to watch the extra sugar or carrot shavings. Well done! |

Delicious treat! |

| Before recently finding Simpson and Vail, I did not buy dessert type teas. But the blends here were so intriguing that I gave Winter Wonderland a try and it was SO good when I bought more I got some of this one too, and now I am hooked on dessert teas! I love green rooibos and the way it is dressed up here is phenomenal. This is the first carrot flavored tea Ive ever had. And honestly, I was hesitant at first to buy it at first but now Im glad I did Its light and sweet and with the other traditional carrot cake flavors it mixes here just as well as it does in any cake. |

The lightest carrot cake I ever had! |

| This herbal blend is a great summer tea. When youre in the mood for a treat, look no further than this herbal blend. Truly tastes like a carrot cake, just missing the cream cheese frosting! |
| |
|
Dessert tea well worth the price! |

| Rooibos is typically not my favorite, but this one is really good. Does not have a medicinal taste that I have experienced in other rooibos teas. The tea itself is slightly spicy and has a very light carroty taste. Overall, the tea itself looks and tastes great. |

Cant wait to have another cup |

| This was the first tea I ever had from S&V and I am so impressed! I normally drink tea from Russia via France begins with a K and a tea co from Canada begins with a D and full of artificial flavoring. This tea is so smooth and the aftertaste is pure cream cheese frosting. It was just fantastic! |

Delicious! |

| I am not one for flavored tea, and was wary when I received the tin of cupcake tea from a friend. Well, Im here to tell you that Ive seen the light... or tasted the tea, or what have you. This tea is delicious. Needs no sweetener -- its just a perfect cup on its own. |
