What Customers Are Saying
The product has experienced a significant decline in quality and consistency. The signature crunchy cake coating is often missing or severely reduced, leaving the bars with little texture or flavor. The ice cream itself has also changed, with the creamy vanilla layer frequently missing and the strawberry flavor tasting artificial or overpowering. Customers report finding foreign objects in the bars. There are widespread complaints about inconsistent quality, with some boxes containing properly coated bars while others are completely bare. Overall, the consensus is that the product is a shadow of its former self, and many loyal customers say they will no longer purchase it in its current state.

Would Not RecommendI’m not kidding, every single bar was just pure strawberry. No vanilla, and barely any crunchy coating. At what point does it become false advertising and when can I start revolution. They can’t keep getting away with this.

Where’s Quality Control at?

Don't Buy Until There Is A Statement About Quality
Would Not RecommendThey must have laid off their QC people. Thought I was going to come here and let them know a batch was bad. Had a whole box with little to no cookie coating. Apparently this is becoming pretty common. Sucks. I only crave these once in a blue moon. Super disappointed.

Good Humor downsizes Strawberry Shortcake
Fifty years ago, Good Humor’s Strawberry Shortcake bars were great..but alas marketing ruins nostalgia. While the taste is similar and welcome; what is not is product downsizing to charge and optimize profits. The only thing not downsized by the financial accountants is the misleading product pictured on the box Accounts n’s can tell you the unit cost of everything and the value of nothing.

Same great treat.
Nostalgic to my childhood. Creamy strawberry taste just as delicious as I remember. Just like eating an actual strawberry shortcake. Conveniently wrapped up in a perfect serving size.

Quality control needed
Would Not RecommendI just bought a box of strawberry shortcake bars and the whole box is messed up. Some don't have any of the cookie coating and some are just all strawberry flavored ice cream in the middle? These are awful

No Cream Like Advertised
Would Not RecommendThere's no cream/vanilla ice cream in these anymore. I have purchased multiple boxes and it's just the tart icy strawberry center. It's a waste of money because it doesn't taste right.

Horrible
Would Not RecommendI have purchased two boxes thinking I received a bad box the first time. The formula change is straight TRASH. You mad a horrible decision to switch up what for ever was the best I will NEVER buy this brand again!!!

No cookie crumble.
Where is the cookie crumble? There were literally 15 small pieces of cookie crumble. Good Humor, you should be embarrassed putting this travesty on the shelf. The picture on the box is false advertising.

Great ice cream truck treat
This is a childhood favor! Every time the ice cream truck would come to our neighborhood. This is my go to ice cream tree! The texture of the outside coating is perfect! I always thought it was just the right size and I love the quality of the flavor.

Different taste
Would Not RecommendSomething has definitely changed and not for the good! Bring back the old school formula and stop cutting corners!
From goodhumor.com
Bring the old recipe back
Would Not RecommendSomething changed in the formula, likely to cut costs. The bars are lighter, less creamy, with less delicious crumble and a watery synthetic strawberry flavor. Most boxes I have tried just were not the same as they used to be, and I was disappointed with each purchase. Sad to see such a iconic treat degrade into what they are today.

Nostalgic flavor you can’t go wrong with
These strawberry shortcake bars aren’t the most healthy or anything, but having grown up with them, they always bring back that nostalgic feeling and so the taste is always there!

Crap.
Would Not RecommendBarely any crunchy topping and not the same. The look on the box is as closest as you will get to the original. Won't buy again.
