We have tried one variety of Auntie Anne's pretzels last weekend and it was delicious. I was not buying in the past because it was quite expensive but since we have some extra cash last time, I decided to buy so my husband and kids can also taste it. I bought the cinnamon sugar flavor and it was super delicious. Crunchy and sweet with the cinnamon and brown sugar. I have tasted the lemonade which comes with it usually but unfortunately, they ran out of stock of lemonade so I just ordered the iced tea. They are the perfect combination. Have you tried the other flavors, share it with me please.

Auntie Anne's is delicious. There's only one that's anywhere nearby me so I don't get it too often. I know they have a lot of different varieties, but I've only tried one and that's the plain one with salt. Even with no dipping sauce or added flavors it was wonderful. Soft on the inside, crusty on the outside and warm. Makes me want one now! LOL

Perfect combination, isn't it? Soft on the inside, crusty on the outside. I just don't know if I try to take-out and get it home and warm it on the microwave, have you tried it? Will it still be crunchy outside and soft inside or just like other bread which becomes nougat? I hope it won't. I remember Goldilocks is also making baked bread sticks with cinnamon sugar but I don't recommend it because they are too hard to eat and will make you hurt your gums. Thanks for sharing!

I've never made it home with one of their pretzels. They get devoured in about 5 minutes! LOL I'd be curious, too, to know how well they turn out when microwaved. Probably not as good as fresh, I'd bet.
I've never heard of Goldilocks before, but hard breadsticks don't sound too appetizing! :-)

I enjoy Auntie Anne's pretzels. The flavor you tried is my favorite flavor. I usually order two when we go out. I think the lemonade is pretty good but they used to have a berry freeze that was really good. They phased it out though. I think the reason is, it was too expensive.

Oh, that's sad. The iced tea was good enough though. I'm planning to have a taste of all the flavors. And next time I'll order two also. One is just enough for me and doesn't want to share it. I've tasted the pretzels on their Robinson's Manila branch. Do you think they have different flavors on each of their branches? Where do you usually buy yours?

I think all branched carry the same flavors. I'm not sure though since I haven't really been to all the branches. I usually buy from the Auntie Anne's in Greenbelt 1 or Glorietta 4.

I like Auntie Anne's pretzels. I do not get them very often because of the cost of them and the fact that they are only at a few malls anymore. I have never tried the cinnamon sugar one. I normally get a plain salted one with some cheese sauce on the side for dipping it in.

I didn't know that they have a plain salted variety. Yes, I think it would be great when you try all the dippings and I also love cheese. I'd try to remember that with all the flavors being suggested here. I can't wait to go to Trinoma (I'm pretty sure they have it there) to buy some again. Watching the trend of prices and I've just heard that bread are becoming more expensive because of the flour price hike, I'll be expecting an increase too on Aunt Annie's. Well, that's sad but we can't do anything about it, just save some more, right? Thanks for sharing!

Hi there, auntie anne's has been my favorite for a long time already! It used to be cheaper but even with the price adjustment it's still delicious. :) Anyway, I always order the sesame one. I like the ones with almonds as well because it's sweet and something different. The lemonade's not that good with the pretzel because it's too sweet! But I really like to have the lemonade a,one when I'm thirsty. It;s either the pretzel or the lemonade for me. :D

Yes, I admit it's quite pricey that's why it's more special. I have to save some before I can get some. I also saw the sesame flavor on the list. I think it should come with a good dip. I'll try it too one time. As for the lemonade, it's a little sweet, right, like the iced tea I've tried but at least it's not too sour unlike other lemonades that you have an almost acidic after-taste after you drink one.

i love auntie anne's pretzels. my favorite is the cinnamon and sugar. but not everybody likes cinnamon. i also love the almond dipped in caramel. i mean, you have to get the caramel dip. i've also tried the sour cream and onion. everything's superb. i haven't tried a lot of flavors because i kept on buying cinnamon and sugar. lol!

Oh, yes! I totally forgot about the dips when I bought my pretzel. I think it was because of the excitement. My husband likes cinnamon too with the coffee. I'll remember your flavors, almond dipped in caramel. I'll also try the other varieties, sour cream and onion, though I think I will be more on the sweet side because of my sweet tooth. Thanks for sharing!
