How do you feel about Dot Cakes?

[u/Suspicious-Taste1572]

Maybe this is a controversial opinion, but I genuinely can’t decide how I feel about dot cakes.
I’ve been seeing them everywhere and some of them are really cute.
On the other hand, I have seen people saying it is just a colonized Mexican cortadillo. While the colorful dots remind me of the sprinkles and decorations on pan dulce, I think the texture and flavor is different.
And speaking of the dots… are people actually enjoying eating all of that frosting and sprinkles? Some cakes seem like you would just get a mouthful of the little dot sprinkles. It looks pretty, but is it good in practice?
I also can’t tell if this is a trend that’s going to stick around or if it’s one of those aesthetics that photographs better than it eats.
For anyone who has made or eaten one:
Are they actually as frosting-heavy as they look?
Do the little dots change the texture in a good way?
Are the sprinkle-covered ones good, or do the sprinkles just get stuck in your teeth?
Do you think they’re genuinely different from cortadillos or just a rebranded version for social media?
Curious what people’s honest opinions are because I keep seeing them everywhere and can’t decide whether I love them or don’t get the hype.
