The product range consists of two new and two familiar varieties including the Mini Iced Chocolate Chip Cakes and the Mini Iced Party Cakes alongside the [Mini Crumb and Pound Cake varieties](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/strawberry-shortcake-roll). The products each come individually wrapped to make them easy to pack into lunches, enjoy out of the house or grab as a portioned treat when in the mood for a snack.
