![]() ![]() Craving the cinnamon? Sprinkle it on yourself! Filled Crumb Cakes As we mentioned before, it's higher where it hurts-calories, fat, and saturated fat-than your previous option but for the same size. Sorry, adding antioxidant-rich cinnamon isn't going to magically make this Cinnamon Crumb Cake any better for you. Per 1/8 cake (58 g): 250 calories, 13 g fat (6 g saturated fat), 250 mg sodium, 33 g carbs (0 g fiber, 16 g sugar), 2 g protein It's lower in calories, fat, and saturated fat than the pick below. That being said, unless you're pulling out a crumb cake every morning to eat alongside your coffee, you don't have to feel guilty about cutting yourself a piece of this crumb-heavy New York Style Crumb Cake if it's sitting next to our "Not That!" pick. Made from white flour bleached by chemicals, inflammatory vegetable oils, fatty-liver-inducing high fructose corn syrup, artificial flavors and colors (the list of Awful Ingredients Everyone Still Uses-But Shouldnt goes on), we'd bet this recipe is far from what William Entenmann originally came up with in 1898. In terms of ingredients, every Entenmann's crumb cake (as well as nearly every product the bakery offers) is a disaster. Per 1/10 cake (57 g): 225 calories, 11 g fat (3 g saturated fat), 205 mg sodium, 31 g carbs (0 g fiber, 15 g sugar), 3 g protein The lawsuit added, "the package has a highly visible sell-by date, which indicates the product is not intended to sit 'fresh' on the shelf for one day." In fact, the holding company of Entenmann's-Bimbo Bakeries-was sued in 2013 for their misleading labelling: while the label indicates that Entenmann's bakery goods are "made fresh daily", they're not, and "the products contain preservatives that belie any claim that they are 'fresh,'" according to the suit. But before you get lost in your childhood memories of sneaking the crumb topping off the coffee cake, we here at ETNT are here to offer you a blunt reality check: Entenmann's products aren't remotely healthy and certainly aren't fresh.Īlthough the company began with truly fresh-baked goods that were delivered daily in a horse-drawn wagon by William Entenmann himself, the products you see on shelves today are far from that idyllic image. Promised you'd bring snacks for your kid's bake sale? Grab a box of cookies. Hosting a brunch for your new neighbors? Pick up an Entenmann's twisted danish. Between their donuts, crumb cakes, and cookies, Entenmann's covers nearly every item on your baked goods checklist.
