Today
starts one of the largest product reviews I have done to date. And the products
come from out of Franklin TN. Over the next four days, I will be using the many
different products, this wonderful company has sent to me.
Southern City Flavors, is the company. And they started with recipes that come form
years past, cooked with and for family and friends. Their values are what food
is all about. Sitting at the family table, with your loved ones, enjoying a
good meal. And over the course of four days, that’s what my family and I will
be sharing. What was cooked with Southern City Flavors products, and how we came
together to enjoy the meals.
Day
one: All About the Cobblers
With
so many cobblers to cook with, I have decided to make them and share them with
my loved ones and my friends. So I am gathering them around for a night of comfort food desserts!
The
cobblers are so easy to make, and to make it even easier the recipe
instructions are on the back of each box. Each box of cobbler comes with the
fruit filling and the topping mix. And the way they turn out is like you made
everything from scratch your self. These are great mix's, especially peach, you
don't have to wait for them to come into season to cook with. And all that you
need is in the cobbler kit, butter and milk. It's as easy as that. Very simple
instructions, to have a great tasting dessert in forty minutes. To make the
whole cobbler, is a prep time of five minutes, try doing that from scratch. And
the taste, well, lets just say no one knew it was a kit. Now the instructions
say all you need is ice cream, and that may be so, but you can also add nuts,
fresh sliced fruits, whip cream, any combo you might think of. Another great
feature is, you can serve your finished cobbler warm or cold, both ways are
just amazing. Its totally up to you. The finished peach cobbler comes out of the
oven perfectly, not gooey or mushy in any way. The topping is also fantastic,
looks like it was made from scratch. The seasoning in the peach mixture is spot
on to, not salty, not overly spiced in any way. And the way that the cobbler
kit comes packaged, makes them a great gift for any occasion. I might also add,
how amazing my kitchen smells.
I
thought for sure I would need help making all these cobbler kits, but they are
so easy to make and assemble, I am fine on my own and loving it. They are so
fun!
Next
was the cherry cobbler, and the cherry cobbler filling looks so yummy right in
the jar, so good you want to just open it and grab a spoon. The cherry cobbler
filling looks somewhat like a cherry pie filling, you see the whole cherries
right through the jar. The aroma that comes when you open the lid is pure
sweetness. The finished cobbler was so pretty, and extra yummy with the scoop
of vanilla ice cream on top. It's nice to have cherries to make a cobbler that
you don't have to take hours removing the pits. The ingredients are so fresh,
and there is no hard tartness to the cobbler. The topping mix comes out so
beautifully browned, and much better tasting then some biscuit toppings for
cobblers. Any one would love getting one of these kits. The finished cobbler comes
together so easily, and taste so fantastic.
Blueberry cobbler was next. That’s another great thing about this kit, its another fruit
you don't have to wait to come into season. Now I know I am going to share my
cobblers, but trust me when you taste them, its really hard to let go. The
blueberries for the filling are wild Maine Maine
Now
I have to say, apple cobbler,I have never made, nor ate, so I was excited for
this flavor. Again, the apples look just like they we're picked. And the aroma
when you open the jar, reminds you of the fall season, from the cinnamon and
other spices. This I could see as the main dessert for Thanksgiving. I know I
said I was sharing, but each cobbler I make, is making it, harder and harder. After
eating the apple cobbler you just want to take a nap because its such a warm
comfort dish. It's important not to mix this cobbler up thinking it’s a crisp.
The topping for the cobbler is a smooth batter type dough, and that is what the
difference is. And to see the apple cobbler filling, it looks similar to pie
filling, but a hundred times better. The apples are nicely sliced and there's
plenty of them. A very delicious old fashioned dessert, that makes you go back
for more.
Moving
on I made the Raspberry cobbler next. This cobbler, like all of them could make
you become addicted. The filling is so pretty, you once again just want to dive
in with a spoon, and the aroma just fills your nose sending happy waves to your
brain. There is no tartness at all to the raspberry cobbler filling, the
ingredients we're perfectly blended. The cobbler topping has such a nice
buttery flavor to it, and the raspberries taste also like they we're freshly
picked. Who doesn't have five minutes to spend in the kitchen. These cobblers
are so easy, even after hours at work, you can whip them up. No one will ever
know, after tasting them, that you did not spend hours in the kitchen. What you
get is a true Southern dessert like Grandma used to make.
The
blackberry cobbler kit from Southern City Flavors, was another great tasting
cobbler. The blackberries in the filling jar, we're nice and plumb and had no
tartness, just sweet delicious flavor. You will feel like Southern royalty
serving any of these cobblers at your next gathering. Whether you serve the
blackberry cobbler with vanilla ice cream or not, it is a true, perfect dessert
that is perfectly sweet. And Southern City Flavors did not skimp on the amount
of blackberries they added to the filling. That is what makes the products so
special, is the overload of fresh tasting fruits. The cobbler kits cobblers can
also be made as a skillet cobbler as well instead of baking them. This would be
a great alternative to cooking them. You will still end up with melt in your
mouth greatness.
My
last cobbler kit was strawberry, another fruit you don't have to wait for to
come in season. Because the strawberries in the cobbler filling taste like they
we're just picked, as all the fruit fillings did. The color is such a brilliant
red, and the aroma is succulent when baking. You almost can't control your self
waiting for them to come out of the oven. When it is finally done, you have a
nice thick and sweet, slightly tart cobbler, that is bursting with amazing
taste. The strawberry cobbler is so decadent, and would truly be enjoyed on any
day. The cobbler kit from Southern City flavors are a fuss free product. And
it's a fun baking project to do with the kids. Get them learning to cook early
and appreciate good food. I think the strawberry was the sweetest tasting so
far, and had a delicious contrast to it.
I
have three more days of cooking and tasting the products from Southern City Flavors.
Tomorrow
will be a BBQ day, with the sauces sent over.
