3.7

The Pizza Cupcake emerges from reviews as a clever, snackable twist that tastes better than most frozen pizza to many, driven by a flaky, buttery, croissant‑meets‑biscuit crust and gooey cheese, but it divides on flavor balance. Strengths include easy oven/air‑fryer prep and crowd‑pleasing novelty; consistent weaknesses are scant filling, overly sweet or flat sauce, occasional dryness/oil pooling, and uneven cook times, leaving several reviewers uninterested in repurchasing.

  • I absolutely love these... they are SO GOOD! I made them in the air fryer & it was the perfect crispiness on the outside & the pepperoni, and the inside was cheesy and the perfect softness! Seriously so good, ate them all in one week!

    PRO TIP: Put honey on them once cooked & it is soooo good!!! Would love to see these in grocery stores so I can pick them up weekly!

  • I ordered the marinara flavor in the Thingdrop. I was pretty excited as an adult, but more excited to tell my 4 year old we are having pizza cupcakes for dinner on saturday. The flavors were pretty good, but not worth the price compared to annie's bagel bites. Cheese was melty, sauce was good, but sadly they didn't meet my expectations. I think they are under filled and generally a little underwhelming.

    Feedback

    I liked the flaky crust, which is better than a bagel bite, but they got hard like a bagel bite does if you overcook them. I won't repurchase them given the price point even with the thingdrop discount.

  • I had a big cupcake phase a while ago, but my love for anything cupcake lives on, so I was thrilled to discover this product through a Thingdrop. Growing up I often had pizza bagels when I went to a friend's house after school. It was one of those snacks I never particularly liked, but ate because it was decent enough. However, this product seemed like a fresh take on the concept, and after continually forgetting about them in my freezer, I finally had the opportunity to try them out! I used the pro tip on the back of my box as my guide and let the cupcakes thaw for 60 minutes before baking. I found these cupcakes to be quite good and far superior to pizza bagel bites. In particular, the crust was the superstar. I was surprised at how flaky and crispy it was, not to mention tasty. The cheese was pretty good though it tended to come out entirely after a bite or two since it didn't stay inside the cup. I wasn't a fan of the tomato sauce in the cupcake. But to be honest, it is rare to find a frozen pizza that can replicate the sauce of a fresh pizza, so I am not too surprised. This is the part of the review where I mention how expensive the product is. At $50 for a pack of 24, these are some seriously expensive cupcakes at over $2 a cup. When bought in-store, the price goes down a good amount, but this is definitely not a snack for people on a budget. However, the taste of this product is what is keeping this at 5 stars for me. This is an item I might find myself splurging on if I found it at the store. Even my brother thought these tasted great, so that is a huge win.

  • Grabbed these on a Thingdrop thinking they would be a fun snack for entertaining. They definitely did not have a pizza look to them, so when I served them to my Bunco group (I swear I'm not an old lady) I really had to explain the concept several times. They were not a hit. The dough was too pastry-like and was incongruous with the expectation of a pizza-ish experience. Some people felt like the dough was just too sweet. Maybe if you are someone that is really into deep-dish you might like these.

    Feedback

    Maybe boost the savory flavor in the dough a bit. Something about the combo of tastes just felt a little unmatched. The vibes were off.
