Is it even a Canadian morning if you aren’t checking the app for the latest Tim Hortons menu? With the World Cup energy in the air, Tims decided to play ball by releasing four brand-new Timbit flavours.
Of course, I had to grab a bag and do the "hard work" of tasting them all for you. Pull up a chair, grab your coffee, and let’s chat about which ones are worth the trek and which ones you can leave at the counter.
The Smooch Food Ranking (Worst to Best)
4. The Lime Cheesecake Filled
I really wanted to love this one. I was expecting a bright, zesty punch to wake up my taste buds, but it fell a little flat. It wasn't quite tart enough for me, and the dough felt a bit dry. If you’re looking for that citrus zing, this might not be the one.

| The new Lime Cheesecake flavour was a bit dry and lacked tartness. |
3. The Chocolate Cr猫me Br没l茅e Filled
This one left me a little confused! It is definitely sweet, but I struggled to find that classic "burnt sugar" Cr猫me Br没l茅e profile. It is a bit of a mystery flavour: tasty enough if you just want a sugary hit, but it did not quite land the theme for me.

2. The Cappuccino
Now we are talking. If you are a fan of the classic Mocha Timbits, you will want to grab a handful of these. It has a lovely, subtle hint of coffee balanced with chocolate. It is the perfect companion to, you guessed it, an actual coffee.

| The Cappuccino Timbit is the perfect coffee-flavoured treat. |
1. The Canadian Fireworks 馃嚚馃嚘
This was the absolute star of the show! When I first saw the pink coating, I figured it was just standard sprinkles. I was so wrong. They are actually pop rocks! It is such a fun, unique experience: they literally pop in your mouth as you eat. It is nostalgic, playful, and easily the most memorable donut I have had in a long time.

| The Canadian Fireworks Timbit was my top pick with its unique pop rock coating. |
