Nothing Bundt Cakes fan favorite will soon leave menu. What's coming next?
A Nothing Bundt Cakes favorite is on its way out as another popular flavor heads back to the bakery case. The banana pudding bundtlet is available until Sunday, July 20, when the pop-up flavor peels off menus, according to the Texas-based bakery's website. The dessert — a banana cake baked with banana puree, Nilla wafers and filled with vanilla pudding — was followed up by the seasonal lemon raspberry cake, which returned to menus Monday, July 14. The summertime flavor is part of the bakery's 'Summer Vibes Collection,' and was offered last year alongside fan-favorite flavors including key lime and churro dulce de leche, according to a news release. 'We drew inspiration from our guests, our bakery owners and even my personal favorite cake flavors to create recipes that capture the essence of summer in every bite,' Claire Jessen, vice president of culinary at Nothing Bundt Cakes, said at the time. The lemon raspberry cake features lemon cake swirled with raspberry puree and topped with Nothing Bundt Cakes' cream cheese icing, a product description says. The dessert is available in all sizes, including personal-sized bundtlets, until Sept. 7, or while supplies last. Pricing information wasn't immediately available.

Oreo maker Mondelez sues Aldi over ‘copycat' packaging
Mondelez, maker of snacks like Oreo, Chips Ahoy! and Nutter Butter, has filed a trademark infringement lawsuit against Aldi, accusing the supermarket of 'blatantly' copying the packaging for its food products. In May, Mondelez, an Illinois corporation, submitted a 72-page federal complaint that claims Aldi uses similar packaging on its store items that 'trades upon the valuable reputation and goodwill' of multiple 'cookie and cracker snack products'. The corporation said in the court documents, which were obtained by that Aldi's packaging is 'likely to deceive and confuse consumers and dilute the distinctive quality of Mondelez's unique product packaging, and if not stopped, threaten to irreparably harm Mondelez and its valuable brands'. has reached out to Mondelez and Aldi for a comment. Mondelez is suing for monetary damages and is also asking that the court stop Aldi, which has its headquarters in Germany, from distributing the alleged 'copycats'. The suit did not specify the amount for damages. The suit contained side-by-side comparisons of Mondelez snacks next to items sold by the grocery chain. Next to images of Oreo, Wheat Thins, Nilla wafers and Ritz crackers were Aldi's Original Chocolate Sandwich Cookies with Vanilla Filling, Thin Wheat Original Crackers, Vanilla Wafers and Golden Round Crackers. Mondelez pointed out similarities in packaging colours, fonts and symbols. 'Defendant's business model involves an emphasis on low-priced private label products that resemble the look and feel of well-known brands,' Mondelez said about Aldi's marketing strategy. According to Mondelez, the company previously contacted Aldi about its 'copycat' items. The suit alleged that Aldi responded to the request by discontinuing or changing the flagged products. But the supermarket has since, according to the snack company, 'continued its patterns and practice of selling products in packaging which infringes the trade dress of numerous Mondelez products'. Aldi's dupes have been mentioned by customers over the years on social media. One Aldi Reddit thread compared the grocery chain's 'knockoff' of Velveeta cheese. An X user posted in 2023 that they enjoyed the dupes more than name brands. Many TikTok users have also shared videos of them trying Aldi ice cream flavours and comparing them to other brands. On Aldi's website, the company says it aims to save customers 'money on the food and products you want the most'. The supermarket described itself as 'the fastest-growing grocer in the U.S.' in a February press release. It also said it plans to open over 225 stores this year.

The Famous Dolly Parton No-Bake Dessert That's Perfect for Summer
Dolly Parton's recipes are always super simple. And that simplicity reflects the country star's humble roots, which have influenced her connection to food. Her love for cooking was born out of necessity, having grown up with twelve siblings. So easy, delicious, crowd-pleasing recipes have always been her thing, whether that be her ground beef casserole, chicken and dumplings, skillet cornbread or her viral and beloved peanut butter pie. Related: While there's no shortage of peanut butter pie recipes online, Dolly's stands out for a few reasons. The no-bake pie comes together lightning fast and uses just five ingredients—creamy peanut butter, cream cheese, Cool Whip, powdered sugar and store-bought graham cracker crust. The recipe first appeared on thanks to a user who scored some handwritten recipe cards at an auction. Since then, the internet has been raving about the star's beloved pie recipe, with many cooks doing riffs of their own. After giving the recipe a try, content creator @its_not_tay admitted that the country star 'can sing and she can cook!' Content creator Lorafied gave the recipe a mini treatment, filling several personal-sized graham cracker crusts instead of one big one. While she topped it with peanuts, one follower commented she should try mini Reese's cups and another recommended she cover the base of the crusts with melted chocolate, which is an idea I can get behind! Related: 😋😋🍳🍔 The first step to making Dolly's peanut butter pie is to make sure your cream cheese is at room temperature. This requires a bit of planning, but it will make your peanut butter pie-making so much easier. Cold cream cheese is difficult to whip and can leave lumps in your pie filling, which is something you definitely don't want. Related: Once softened, add the cream cheese to a large bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer with powdered sugar and peanut butter and mix until smooth. One piece of advice regarding the peanut butter: all-natural peanut butter will make the filling grainy, so this is a moment to use a big brand peanut butter (think Jif or Skippy) that's smooth and creamy right out of the jar. Next, gently fold in Cool Whip into the peanut butter mixture and divide it between two store-bought graham cracker crusts, spreading the filling evenly in the crusts. (If you're making the pie for a smaller group, you can easily halve the recipe and make just one pie.) Cover and chill until the filling is set. Related: If you have a little more time to spare, it's fun to make the crust from scratch. You can go with a homemade graham cracker crust, or swap out the graham crackers for Oreos, Nilla wafers, Biscoff cookies, or even gingersnaps. Personally, I'd blitz up some pretzels with some butter, and a little sugar to create a sweet and salty summer treat that's perfect for a summertime grilled feast.
