In an effort to help lazy bakers enjoy the delicious taste of cake without all the work, Trader Joe's has debuted a new Chocolate Salted Caramel Mug Mix. Not only is the cake easy enough for even the most butter-fingered homecooks to prepare, but its rich chocolate taste is sure to satisfy a craving for something sweet.
Trader Joe's new Chocolate Salted Caramel Mug Mix is a cake kit that comes with two packets of powdered cake mix and four individually wrapped salted caramels. To prepare a cake, consumers simply dump the contents of one cake mix into a microwave-safe mug, add water, and then microwave for 20 seconds. After adding in two salted caramels, consumers microwave the cake for 20 more seconds, let cool, and then dig in. In other words, the mix goes from powder to dessert is less than 2 minutes flat.
With enough mix in each box to make two delicious mug cakes, the dessert is the perfect option for a cozy night in.
