Assume I'm going to eat the entire box*. The only question is the specific order:

*i.e. the contents thereof

Start with the highest quantity item and then alternate items until they're pretty much even. Then just keep alternating, keeping in mind to eat the one you love the most, last.

Divide into 3 categories:
Chocolate - Best stuff
Things with fluffy icing/cream inside- So-so
Things covering in fluffy sugary icing on top. -Ick

Then is the question, do you save the best for last (Chocolate) and first eat the sugar icing cupcakes?
Pro- Save the best for last
Con- Don't want to get too full with those fluffy cupcakes and not have room left for the Chocolate
Con2- If you get caught eating all the stuff, you will have to share, and you will be stuck sharing the better cake
Pro- Sharing is a mitzva, and for sure Mrs Melech likes chocolate too.

Other option is eat Chocolate first, then Napoleon, then Cupcakes
Pro- Get to saver the Chocolate
Pro- Get dibs on all the best stuff before people want to share
Con- Stuck with the flavor of the cupcakes in the end

Soultion:
Eat almost all Chocolate but save a few. Then eat everything else. Then have the last chocolates.

*the actual box itself would be healthier

Proceeding as per instructions.

Is that gluten-free?

No.

Presumably something mezonos...
But on second thought if you are planning to eat the whole box you should probably wash...

In my house things tend to get eaten from prettiest to ugliest. Colors such as blue, pink and green first, yellow and brown last.

Refuah Shelaima for your stomachache!

Let's say there were a donut within the box. You don't wash for a donut because it's not pas haba bekisnin because it's deep fried, even if you eat a koveiah seudah. But if you are washing to eat all that mezonot, can the first thing you eat be the donut or do you have to start with one of the cakes?

Also, if I'm just saying mezonot, can I start off my licking the icing off of one them, or do I have to eat the cake part first?

We had this discussion already. I'm still really curious to what the halacha is.

There is an order between different kinds of mezonos, but I don't know it.

In fact there is a story about a young Rav (who grew up to be choshuv) that was offered a mixed plate of cake, he took one and ate it and some letz started shouting "look at our "Rav" he doesn't even know you're supposed to eat lekach first". So the rav to save face from forgetting this din said "Oh, I don't eat lekach" and for the rest of his life a piece of lekach NEVER passed his lips...... (there is a similar story about gebrocts)


Yes, because it is tafel to the cake
