Dissatisfied with the quality

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
I've enjoyed your product for over 50 years and was very satisfied . However apparently you've cut costs in the manufacturing process on cinnamon rolls . For years the rolls were easily separated for baking , now the perforations don't line up and it becomes a mess . This morning I threw the mess in the trash where it belongs. I will no longer waist my money or time on your products.

Weebles in my 3 tier wedding cake

Pillsbury - Weebles in my 3 tier wedding cake - Image 4

I made a 3 tier white wedding cake and while I was base coating it I notice black specks . So I started looking closer to all 6 layers and the specks were all through each cake .

I got a magnifying glass and it was definetly weebles . Some even had wings . I took pictures and of course threw it away , all 3 tiers . My niece was supposed to pick up the cake early this morning , but because of this crisis I had to go out and shop for more cake mixes , more oil, more eggs .

And about 2 1/2 lbs of frosting I used to base coat the Bottem 16 cake , just before I started base coating the second tier which was 12 .cakes then I had to stay up all night and rebake all 6 layers, and change the time for pick up to 3 pm because I couldnt get it done any sooner and the wedding started at 6 pm . This was no little cake, I am very disappointed . And Iam wore out and tired . I called Frys where I purchased the cake mixes and all they can do is refund me for my cake mixes , but not the oil or the eggs I put into those cakes.

I would greatly appreciate something to make this right . I cant believe this happened. Ive made wedding cakes for about 20 years and have never had this happen . I have always used philsbury cake mixes.

But as far as making cakes in the future, Iam not so sure I ever will . Quite honestly , it makes me sick everytime I think about it .

My number is 623-204-**** my name is Dawn Allmon my email is dawniallmon@***.com. Of course my receipt got thrown away , but I did use my debit card to purchase everything at Frys on 163 rd ave and pat tillman in surprise Arizona

Iam very happy that I spotted these bugs , instead of having it finished and the wedding guest tell me about it . That would of been so embarrassing . Not to mention that’s how I get my cake orders , by word of mouth .

Moldy cinnamon Grands

Pillsbury - Moldy cinnamon Grands - Image 3
I planned to have an extra treat for the family by making flaky Cinnamon Grands this morning. Upon opening the roll I found that it did not have the standard pop from being vacuum packed. The dough was dried and moldy. The Cinnamon rolls were in the refrigerated section of Meijers and always in the frig while I had the package. The expiration date marked on the package is 21 April 2024 along with MS3L2001:17 2. The packaging did not appear damaged in any way. I have photos of the package and dough if that would help you determine the problem in this dangerous and disappointing situation.

Metal in my Corndog Wraps

I had made Corndogs using their canned Corndog Wraps after I baked them and let them cool, I plated up a few of these bad boys ready to dig in. Right before I took a bite, I noticed something shiny on the corndogs, and noticed metal flakes! They were in the dough on the tops and bottoms of the corndogs! I prepared and cooked them on wax paper, so I know there was no transfer from my end.

Hair in biscuits

Pillsbury - Hair in biscuits
Original review Feb 11, 2024
Opened up a fresh can of biscuits only to be nauseated at finding pubic-looking hairs embedded in multiple biscuits. Gross!!! Very disappointed as Ive not had a quality issue with them before, but Im just so grossed out and disgusted. Will have a hard time ever buying again. They need to do some serious quality control to get to the bottom of that issue. I expect better from such a pervasive brand.

Poor quality.. Higher price.

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
Quality has gone down the tube. Lately thes cinnamon rolls that come in a can have been horrible quality. Very hard to separate them without them coming undone. They are also smaller... but somehow more expensive... Shameful

Preferred solution: Price reduction

I was not aware of bio engineered ingredients in your products. My daughter pointed it out to me! I will never purchase another product from your company or subsidiaries. I had always trusted your name, your branding and products! Never again. And my entire Family will be advised to never purchase anything from your company in the future. Sadly your products are not an option ever again.

Mold on 3 Loaves of Pillsbury Oatmeal Bread

Mold on 3 Loaves of Pillsbury Oatmeal Bread - Image 4

I had right knee replacement surgery Monday and planned to survive on Turkey Sandwiches. I purchased 3 (three) of the 48 oz.

loaves of Pillsbury Oatmeal Bread on Sunday. the loaves were dated November 26 so I thought I would be okay. I opened the first loaf on Wednesday and noticed yesterday that there was some mold on top of the loaf. I didn't worry too much about it; I thought it was a fluke.

this morning I looked at the second loaf and it's covered with mold. the third loaf is moldy, as well. please note that neither the 2nd nor 3rd loaf has been opened. the mold is obvious through the plastic wrap.

I have taken pictures of the two unopened loaves if you would like me to forward them to you.

I would try to return them to the grocery store where I purchased them but I'm unable to drive for at least another week. also, I no longer have the receipt.

Substandard products

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
Pillsbury continues it's fall to the bottom. I bought their frozen southern style biscuits. The biscuits size was cut in half. When cooked they did not rise. When browned they were hard as a rock making them uneditable.

Product contamination

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

Hello. I recently purchased pillsbury cookie dough.

I ingested a piece of glass/plastic that was in your product. After choking on the object i was thankfully able to cough it up.

I co tacted your customer service department and i was blown off. In fact i was only sent a check for 12 dollars as compensation for this.incident. Absolutely no one took this seriously.

I am angry and disappointed in Pillsbury. I would like to speak to someone regarding this matter immediately.

I would hope that the fact that i choked on glass or plastic i side your product is serious enough for your company to take it seriously. Please contact me immediately

Thank.you

Artificially flavored cream cheese frosting

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
I'm not sure who decided this stuff tastes like cream cheese, but honestly it tastes like whipped up garbage to me. Thank goodness it was given to us and not an actual purchase we made. Honestly what could I expect though after reading the label and seeing the trash it was made with (sugar syrup and oil). Oh and also have had the same issues as others with getting Grands frozen biscuits separated because of them getting all mushed and frozen together. There has to be a better way of packing those things.

Pros:
  • Lots of different products
Cons:
  • Fake and bioengineered food

Preferred solution: Nothing.

Orange rolls

You need to do something about the way your orange rolls separate when removing them from the tube. The scoring on the dough is so poor, I ended up making a mess of all the rolls.
