Oreo Announces 2 New Flavors to Debut in 2020

by Erica LoopNovember 13, 2019

There’s always room for a new addition to Oreo’s ever-growing catalog of fab flavors. While the upcoming holidays may have you craving Gingerbread or Peppermint Bark cookies, the iconic brand has two new tasty treats to check out: Chocolate Marshmallow and Caramel Coconut.

While most of Oreo’s special selections have the classic chocolate cookies on the outside and a flavored creme inside, the Chocolate Marshmallow version does things a bit differently. Along with marshmallow-y delish creme, these party-ready picks have marshmallows in the cookie exterior too.

The Caramel Coconut variety comes with the standard chocolate cookies and a coconut-flavored creme with coconut pieces in the center.

So where can you get these delish delights? If you’re on the hunt for a marshmallow or caramel coconut treat, you’ll have to wait until next year. In a recent Instagram post, Oreo announced the debut date as January 2020.

Pumpkin spice season has launched even earlier this year with lattes and donuts rolling out with the seasonal flavor as early as August. So it’s only fitting that peppermint bark gets an early launch of its own. Häagen-Dazs has just announced that its popular Peppermint Bark flavors will be back in stores beginning Oct. 1.

The first is the Peppermint Bark pint, which combines white chocolate ice cream with peppermint bark and peppermint candy pieces. The second option is the Peppermint Bark Ice Cream bars which feature white chocolate ice cream coated in dark chocolate and sprinkled with peppermint candy pieces.
