Starbucks’ New Cream Cheese-Stuffed Bagel Balls Will Change The Way You Bagel
Bagels are already pretty portable, but I guess there’s a demand for even more portability, opening the door for Starbucks to start dishing out cream cheese-filled bagel balls.
The coffee mega-chain teamed with Bantam Bagels, the creators of these bagel bombs, and has released them in more than 500 of its New York, Indiana and Philadelphia locations, according to Buzzfeed.
Sure that’s only about 4 percent of Starbucks’ over 11,000 locations in the US, but at this rate, that number is expected to increase to 7,000 nationwide, according to Bantam Bagels.
The bagels come in three flavors; Classic, Everybody’s Favorite, which is equivalent to an Everything bagel, and French Toast. The Classic is filled with regular cream cheese, the Everything comes with a veggie cream cheese, and the French Toast has a fitting, buttery maple cream cheese.
Bantam Bagels opened up shop in 2013, and even got backing on the reality show Shark Tank. Since then, they’ve been making a lot of noise New York—noise that seems to be making its way throughout the country.
