Since 1995, Flying Noodle has specialized in gourmet gifts for individuals and corporations. Most of these gifts come in the form of monthly clubs, from wine to cheese and beyond. We've been a little stymied by this company in the past, without a ton of information to go on with respect to the dessert club. There's still no rating from the Better Business Bureau or even on third-party sites like Trustpilot. But, never fear - this time, we grabbed the proverbial bull by the horns... and made a phone call to get some answers.
Call for details on recent dessert club selections
Although the Flying Noodle website could do a lot more to pull back the curtain about its Dessert of the Month Club (and maybe secure the website URL while they're at it?), we were impressed by the service we received when we called to ask our questions. And those answers make this subscription a lot more tempting. First off, we asked what kinds of treats could we expect in our monthly (or every-other-monthly) deliveries. Their helpful rep gave us a list of several previous' months desserts, which included the following:
- Strawberry, vanilla, and chocolate cake pops
- Birthday cake, lemon, and raspberry macaroons
- Chocolate and blondie brownies
- Cinnamon walnut cake
- Cinnamon rolls
- Cookie bars in assorted flavors
Monthly previews of each delivery come via email
We also learned that, just like some of our favorite dessert clubs, Flying Noodle's comes with a monthly email preview of what's going to be delivered, which is sent out somewhere around the 10th-13th of the month. If you see something coming that isn't your cup of tea, no problem: just reach out via phone or email by the 15th and ask them to skip that month's package. Your subscription will then be extended by another month (tacking on the skipped one to the end of the term, essentially). All packages go out during the last 7 days of the month. Just keep in mind that you won't know what's going to be delivered in the very first package unless you call to ask; from that point on, you (and your recipient, if this dessert club is a gift for someone else) will get that preview email.
You can send this dessert club as a gift
Speaking of gifts, you'll indicate that right on the same page where you choose which club length you want. Then, during the checkout process, you can choose if you want an announcement sent by email or regular mail, and it doesn't look like there's any extra charge. You can request when you'd like that announcement to go out. Flying Noodle also gives you the choice to print out a gift card on your own computer, if maybe you're headed to a special occasion and don't want to arrive empty-handed.
You'll probably have to pay in full, upfront
The friendly Flying Noodle rep thought that it was possible to pay for the dessert club either month-to-month or upfront for a slight savings. We're pretty sure that the latter is not the case; at least, we didn't see any indication of that when we added the subscription to our cart, but if that's a dealbreaker for you, we recommend giving Flying Noodle a call to see if it's possible to set it up that way.
Reasonably-priced and delivery is included
So, here's what you can expect for pricing. You can get three months of desserts for $143.85, four seasonal deliveries for $191.80, six months for $281.70, or a full year for $551.40. That makes the monthly cost from $47.95 to $45.95, respectively. When you choose the total number of dessert deliveries you prefer, you'll also be able to indicate if you'd like the frequency to be monthly or every other month. And, good news, the delivery costs are included in the price.
Satisfaction guaranteed
Also, Flying Noodle really wants you to love everything they send you. If you're not 100% happy with your dessert, reach out right away and let them know. They'll do what it takes to make it right.
From worst to worth it
Would we like to see some kind of feedback beyond the undated testimonials on the Flying Noodle Page? Of course. But we were so excited to talk with Flying Noodle's support rep on the phone and hear that this dessert club isn't too far off from some of our top picks. With the variety of the desserts and the affordable pricing confirmed, we're happy to move Flying Noodle up from the bottom of our list and give the club an above-average rating for the first time. But, if you're listening, Flying Noodle... please update your website!

Where Can You Find the Most Delectable Dessert Clubs?
Imagine a world where delicious desserts are just a few clicks away. This is the magic of online dessert clubs, where sweet treats from around the globe arrive at your doorstep on a regular basis. Joining one of these clubs can be a delightful adventure, bringing joy and indulgence into your life, one dessert at a time.
How do these subscriptions work? Each month (or sometimes less frequently if you prefer), you receive a box filled with goodies. These treats can range from cookies and cakes to chocolates and pastries, which makes opening each box an exciting experience. But, if you've got some taste preferences (or even allergies), don't stress: most of the dessert clubs out there today will let you know in advance what's coming in your monthly box of sweets, so that you can hit "skip” if there's something on the schedule that you wouldn't enjoy.
Dessert Club FAQ
Continued from above...
Some dessert clubs offer a variety of payment options. You might find clubs that require an upfront payment for a certain number of months. This can be great if you want to commit to a long-term sweet experience without worrying about monthly bills, or if you're giving the dessert club as a gift that keeps giving. On the other hand, some clubs offer a pay-as-you-go plan, which allows you to enjoy the flexibility of deciding each month whether you want to continue. This can be perfect if you like the idea of trying a club without a long-term commitment, or your wallet can't quite accommodate paying in full.
Subscription plans can also vary in terms of delivery frequency. Some clubs send out dessert boxes every month, giving you a regular dose of sweetness to look forward to. Other clubs offer more spaced-out options, such as bi-monthly or quarterly deliveries. This can be ideal if you want to savor each dessert for longer or if you're watching your sugar intake but still want to indulge occasionally.
Choosing the right dessert club for you can depend on several factors. Here are some key criteria to consider:
- Variety of desserts. Think about what types of desserts you enjoy the most. Some clubs specialize in certain treats, like cookies or chocolates, while others offer a mix. If you have a sweet tooth for all kinds of desserts or you're a dedicated foodie craving new taste experiences, a club with a wide variety might be the best choice.
- Subscription flexibility. Consider how often you want to receive your dessert boxes. Monthly deliveries can be great if you love frequent treats, but bi-monthly or quarterly subscriptions might suit you better if you prefer to pace yourself. Also double-check how easy it is to pause your desserts if you're going to be out of town.
- Payment options and overall value. Decide if you prefer to pay upfront for a set period or if you like the flexibility of paying month-to-month. Upfront payments can sometimes offer a discount, but pay-as-you-go plans provide more freedom to cancel anytime. Is shipping included in your subscription fees? Do you get a lot of desserts for the money? Some dessert clubs give you nice extras like a fun newsletter, too.
- Customer reviews. Look at what other subscribers are saying about the treats and the service as a whole. Reviews can give you an idea of the quality and reliability of the club. Positive feedback about the taste and presentation of the desserts can help ensure you're choosing a reputable service. Is there a satisfaction guarantee?
Subscribing to a dessert club can be a fun and rewarding way to discover new flavors and indulge in high-quality sweets. With so many choices available, there's a perfect club out there for every dessert lover, and the experts at Top Consumer Reviews have done the oh-so-arduous work of evaluating some of today's sweetest options. Whether you're treating yourself or looking for a unique gift, the right dessert club is sure to bring a smile to your face with each delicious delivery.
