The very first garlic cream cheese bun I ever had was from Classic 1989 last year before I started this account! I remember being surprised at how good cream cheese tasted LOL anyways finally tried it again after over a year and my sentiments on it remain the same.
The amount of cream cheese that is in the bun is suuuuper generous, much better than other bakeries I've tried! Each wedge has a generous coating of sweet, creamy cream cheese. This is definitely the stand-out of the bun.
The bread used is those hard, baguette kinds, making it a bit hard to tear and chew if you dont toast it, which is a downside. The amount of garlic butter also isn't that much, such that it tastes more like a cream cheese baguette than actual garlic bread. Would be a lot better if the bread was coated with more garlic butter so that there's more garlic taste (could also be a batch issue from when I bought it though).
For only $2.50, this is super worth it! Would be even better if real garlic and a more generous amount of garlic butter was added. Can't wait to try other gcc buns from other bakeries too to see how it compares!
