This is my first “dessert tea,” and I love it. The sweet, confectionary flavor is perfect after dinner or when craving a late night snack. A cup of this tea feels so indulgent. The smell is heavenly! I wish there was a hint of pineapple or a bit more fruitiness. In the sample I bought, I taste more caramel than anything. But the flavor is spot on to what the gooey, brown sugar “sauce” on a real pineapple upside-down cake tastes like! And I know a lot about them because I own a bakery. ;P
I feel like I should point out that this tea is heavily artificially flavored. If you’re a tea “purist,” you probably already know to stay away from most dessert teas. If you’re not a fan of artificial flavorings in your cup, this tea is not for you. Personally I don’t mind it, and I would drink this as a dessert any night of the week. :)

I have been back and forth about whether I would like this or not but reviews like yours are definitely making it that much more appealing
I hear you about the artificial flavors, but there are companies that do use natural flavoring or blend with fruit, herbs, spices and various types of tea to create awesome dessert flavors (including pineapple).
I just wanted to let you know how awesome I think you are for having a bakery. What a neat life you must have.
It’s getting to be about time for even non-bakers to put on the aprons and go to it! My daughter is gearing up for the Winter Market which begins this Saturday. With 8 children, Saturday is all she can manage as a business! Her 100 or so loaves of bread and toffee sell out fast! Because of the cold weather (and sometimes snow), the market is in an enclosed space in Old Town that is festive during the coming months. I love vintage towns anyway!
