WHITE CAKE - This scent stood true to it's name and description. It smelled just like a white caking baking and/or freshly out of the oven sitting on the counter cooling off. The throw was med to strong and lasted about 6 to 7 hours. After smelling it for a while though, I felt like it was missing something, like the frosting. I almost popped some Cotton Candy Frosting in with it. Think I'll be trying that the next time I order it :0).

DIVINE CAKE - This scent was yummy! Definitely held true to it's description and pretty much to it's name since it was really good. If you read my White Cake review, I said it felt like it was missing something... well this one made up for it. It is white cake with the sweetness built in. The description says raspberries, strawberries and buttercream frosting. I don't necessarily detect exact raspberry or exact strawberry notes. It's the sweetness of both blended smoothly with the buttercream frosting. The throw was strong and the lasting power was about 8 to 9 hours. This is one of those scents that if I would have had more of it, I could have easily added a little more and it would have boosted the power of it right back up. As I've said before, Cheryl can tell ya, I'm very picky with my scents. I've started ordering her single tart cups to try a scent first before investing in a pack of tarts, so I didn't have anymore to add. It is on my list for the next order , lol, and I just got a order in a couple days ago... yep, yep, I'm a junkie!! So yeah, if you are a bakery freak like me, you have to give this one a try!

STRAWBERRY CREAM - Another one that holds true to it's name and description. It has a perfect blend of strawberry and cream. The throw is on the stronger side and the lasting power is amazing. I like fruity scents in my bathroom, so that is where this gets used. I can get a good 2 days out of this one, 3 if I want to deal with the scent strength being on the lighter side. My bathroom warmer is a bulb warmer (that's what I love about Cheryl's parasoy, it will work in a bulb warmer if it's not overloaded) and bulb warmers are a lower temp warmer. If you try this in a hot plate warmer, I don't know if you would get 2 or 3 days out of it, but I know you'd get a good 1 or 2 out of it. So yeah, for a fruity scent, I give it a thumbs up for sure!

VANILLA SUGARED SHORTBREAD - I gotta say, Cheryl did it! She found a scent like this that FINALLY has the true aroma of shortbread, the throw is strong and it lasts! This is one of those scents in general, like sugar cookie, that normally has a light throw and doesn't have very long lasting power. Well she broke the general rule on this one!! It was just like I mixed the dough up and was baking it in my own oven! This will be added to my have on hand all the time list. If you like bakery scents, you have to order it!

STRAWBERRY SLUSH - Gave this one a shot because I'm always looking for different unique fruity scents for my bathroom. When it first started melting and probably for the first half hour after melting I wasn't to sure. It had a different aroma to it, but after that, I was pleasantly surprised and it smelled exactly like a strawberry slushy. The strength was between medium to strong, but keep in mind I use a bulb warmer in the bathroom. If thrown in a hot plate warmer, I could see where the strength would be strong. The lasting power is good too... I'm on day 2 and it's still as strong as when I first put it in the warmer. I will be ordering this scent again and if you like unique fruity scents, then this one is worth a try!

HONEY CINNAMON - Let's see, O-M-G! Honey frickin' Cinnamon... this scent is AMAZING!!!! This scent has now gained a spot in the top 3 of my favorites!! Haven't decided which one it knocked out of place yet, but it will. This scent is amazing.... oh, wait, I said that already :0). It is dead on to it's description, the throw is super strong (not sickening super strong) and the lasting power is a good 15 to 16 hours and even at that it still had a light throw to it!! After about 8 hours I decided to do some testing with it and threw some pie crust in.... yep, yep I now had me some honey cinnamon pastries going on. Bakery scent lovers you HAVE TO try this one... you will not be disappointed!!

HOLIDAY COOKIES - Cheryl is on a roll! Another cookie scent that is true to it's description, was on the stronger side of things and lasted about 8 to 9 hours which is all really good for a sugar cookie type scent for all these categories!! I think with one of the notes being cake it really helped stabilize it! All in all I give a definite thumbs up & definitely recommend trying it, especially if you love sugar cookies!

BEAR CLAWS - This is a new version of this scent that Cheryl is carrying now. I've always been a Bear Claws fan, but I have to say I'm more of a fan now! You could smell in the aroma all the usual notes of Bear Claws, but what I think does it for this version is how it smells like everything is blended together well. It almost had a touch of creaminess to it. The strength of the throw was strong and it lasted around 11 hours with still having a light throw to it even at that point. If you're a Bear Claws fan, I think you would definitely appreciate this one!

CARAMEL CORN - This scent was kinda everywhere on the board. It's true to it's name, the aroma definitely is caramel popcorn. The throw was pretty decent. It lasted well, total about 8 to 9 hours, but the caramel part started weakening out before that. So I guess it's a toss up if it's something you would like or not. lol... I had some caramel on hand, so I tossed a little in and it livened back up again :0).

COUNTRY SWEET MUFFINS - Honestly didn't know what to expect from this scent. The first time I ordered it there was an issue and things didn't turn out they where supposed to. The reason I mentioned this is I wanted to make point about Cheryl and her awesome customer service. I contacted Cheryl about the problem. There were no questions asked. She immediately took care of me and replaced the tarts there was an issue with! If you ever have a issue or problem (because face it, we don't live in a perfect world) contact her, she'll always make it right! Ok, as far as the Country Sweet Muffins I'd have it stood true to it's name. The aroma had a nice blend of bakery muffin with the sweetness baked in. My kitchen smelled like the oven was cranked on and I was baking. The scent throw was strong and could smell it all through my house. The lasting power on this one was about 10 hours, with still having a light throw. I definitely recommend giving it a try!

BIRTHDAY CAKE - Um, being the extreme bakery scent person that I am... why am I just now trying this for the first time?! This scent was pretty good! The description says hints of berry, but I didn't pick those notes up at all. All I smelled was the sweet rich aroma of cake. The scent throw was strong and lasted around 10 to 11 hours. It did weaken about 3/4's of the way through though, but still a good burn/melt. I certainly will be ordering it again! If you like the deep, rich, sweet bakery scents, then you should give this a try!

TWINKIE - To be honest, it's been many, many years since I've had a Twinkie. I couldn't tell you what a Twinkie is supposed to smell like. However, this scent was a good smelling scent whether it actually smells like a Twinkie or not :0). The aroma was similar to the Birthday Cake scent with whipped cream mixed in. Since Twinkie's are a cake with whipped cream, I'd have to say it is probably close to a Twinkie aroma. The throw was definitely on the stronger side and it lasted around 8 hours. Just like the Birthday Cake, the scent strength started puttering out about 3/4's of the way through, but still kept a medium strength throw going. I will be purchasing it again!
