Oreo Just Announced 2 New Flavors Inspired By These Popular Desserts
Oreos are the best-selling cookie in the world, according to Quartz. They've been around for over 100 years — since 1912, to be exact — and are sold in over 100 countries, too, according to the website of Oreo's parent company Mondelez International. One could argue that the legendary legacy of these little sandwich cookies is equally built on just how classic they are — chocolate crunch plus vanilla creme equals endless nostalgia, good memories, and reliable tastiness, of course — as well as the genius new flavors this brand endlessly churns out. Oreo keeps us guessing and excited with its boundless creativity. Just as much as fans love the original Oreo, they love to tune in for limited edition, gotta-catch-em-before-they're-gone varieties like Candy Corn, Lemon, Carrot Cake, Birthday Cake, Red Velvet, Chocolate Peanut Butter Pie, Pistachio, Mint, Piña Colada, and Waffle & Syrup (via The New York Times).
It was only back in December of 2020 that Oreo broke the internet with Brookie-O's, but in typical Oreo form, the Nabisco-made cookie is breaking huge summer news in the flavor department. Mark July 8, 2021 as the day Oreo held a live press conference on Twitter to announce that the mad geniuses on their team are definitely not slacking. There are not one but two major announcements, and we just can't wait to spill the beans — er, cookie crumbs? — on the first: Salted Caramel Brownie Oreos.
Salted Caramel Brownie Oreos for summer, Apple Cider Donut Oreos for fall
Wait! Before you go running out the door to stock up on Salted Caramel Brownie Oreos, first of all, don't forget to put on shoes. Second, let us quickly fill you in more details and the other big flavor in store.
Salted Caramel Brownie Oreos will have double the stuffing. There will be a layer of brownie creme and a layer of caramel creme. We'd be sold right there, but then Oreo is going and pulling a first for the brand by sprinkling salt on top of the chocolate wafer, according to Oreo's press conference. So, you truly get the fudgy brownie, salty caramel, sweetness and crunch, all in one bite. These Oreos are hitting shelves — in stores and then in our pantries ASAP — this July.
In August, Oreo is keeping the pace going with a super fun and inventive fall flavor. The end of summer can be a bummer, but these Oreos are enough to actually make you look forward to back-to-school life and falling temperatures. Apple Cider Donut Oreos, with the sweet and spiced cider doughnut-flavored creme sandwiched between two golden wafers, will conjure up the beloved autumn experience of apple-picking on a farm and waiting in line for those fresh, hot, sugar-sprinkled baked treats before you go. And admittedly, buying a pack or two of Apple Cider Donut Oreos is even easier and faster than getting to the nearest orchard. Just be sure to catch these limited varieties before they're gone.
