Default The low carb desserts were a bust!

I bought two desserts at Costco. Thankfully they were small. One was a
chocolate cheese fudge. The other was a buffalo milk lemon cheesecake.

Nobody liked the fudge. It doesn't taste like cheese. It is VERY creamy
which is perhaps one reason I don't like it. It is missing that sort of
slightly granular texture that a good fudge has. That's not quite the right
description but good fudge has a texture that this stuff doesn't. It is very
chocolately. TOO chocolatey. Nobody ate more than a tiny bite.

The cheesecake is very lemony and not at all sweet. I found it to be just
okay but the flavor was too overwhelming to me. I think I further messed it
up by putting some Amarena cherries on it. I found them to be just weird.
I bought them for a baked apple recipe that I will probably make again, sans
any sort of cherries or chocolate sauce. That to me was overkill. The
cherries are in texture like Maraschino but they are a dark, almost blackish
color and not very sweet. I know they are in a sugar syrup but it had a
yucky medicinal taste to me. So I will likely just be dumping those out,
even though they were expensive.

Good try Costco, but... Fail!
