Oreo brings back retired flavor and adds a new one. Here’s when and what to know
A retired Oreo flavor will return to shelves soon, along with a new permanent flavor.
Oreo is bringing back its Golden Birthday Cake cookies on March 3, just in time to “celebrate Milk’s Favorite Cookie turning another year older,” the cookie brand said in a news release.
The snack — made with birthday cake-flavored creme with sprinkles sandwiched between two Golden Oreos — was added to the permanent lineup in 2013 and retired “a few years later,” a brand spokesperson told McClatchy News.
The festive flavor will be available for a limited time, though Oreo didn’t say for how long.
Starting Feb. 24, cookie lovers can also get their first bites of the Double Chocolate Cakesters, the newest flavor in Oreo’s permanent lineup.
Reminiscent of a whoopie pie, the treat features chocolate creme filling between two chocolate snack cakes, according to a product description. The Double Chocolate Cakesters will join classic varieties including Double Stuf Oreos and original Oreo Cakesters.
Pricing information wasn’t immediately available.
The new additions come a month after Oreo unveiled a slate of “new flavor innovations,” including a “first-of-its-kind” cookie creation by rapper Post Malone.
Other Oreo varieties include:
- Oreo golden cakesters
- Oreo Loaded
- Oreo Irish Creme thins
- Oreo minis peanut butter
