It's been sweltering recently so despite Wendy's being a short walk from my home, my Caramel Apple Frosty Parfait melted quite a bit by the time I arrived home. Also the fact that Wendy's Frosties have a liquid milkshake consistency left me with a bit more liquid to my parfait.
Still, the shake was mostly good despite not being as solid as I would have preferred. There are sizable chunks of crunchy, tart apples and the granola added a little bit of crunchy sweetness to the mix.
While I like the flavors of Wendy's Caramel Frosty Parfait, the Frosty seems to be better used in shakes rather than a frozen dessert parfait. I think something along the lines of ice cream or soft serve is more suited to the application. Or maybe they should use caramel-covered apples. That might be nice.

hmm i had one for the first time today and well mines was of the milkshake type to haha and it wasn't even hot but other than that it was really good good amount of apple pieces the granola was very tasty and the caramel sauce made it sweeter though odd enough it was on the sides of the cup yet you don't really taste it there all and all it was worth the $1.89
ReplyDeleteI don't know, man. I think you did yourself a diservice by letting it melt so much. I like the frosty because its more Blizzard-like than a shake, and the texture seems better suited to go with the granola. I really like this item though.
ReplyDeleteMan ole man... can I say this was some kind of YUMMY??? I agree Adam, it sounds like his was a bit runny, but this is quite the change. Grant it, it's not good for you... but it IS good going down. I'm liking the crunchy sweet/tart apple chunks, the granola & the caramel sauce. A different kind of good. I would have it again...next time with chocolate frosty.
ReplyDeleteGood but too many calories to be worth eating again.
ReplyDeleteThey should be using something like soft serve ice cream instead of the milky stuff . I love Wendy's but hate the soupy stuff they use for the parfait.
ReplyDeleteYeah soft serve would work better I think then a Frosty.
