Listen—I love all things pumpkin more than you could ever imagine. I mark the days on my calendar when the likes of Dunkin’ Donuts, Trader Joe’s and even Dairy Queen release their line-up of pumpkin-flavored goodies. However, there’s another flavor in my life that I don’t give enough credit to.
The smell is sweet, the taste is syrupy, and the color is just so pretty—the best part? You can indulge in all this autumnal goodness thanks to Maple Creme Oreos.
Maple Creme Oreos Are BACK!
If you’re an Oreo connoisseur like myself, you probably keep up with the ever-changing cookie trends and try your best to sample each and every new flavor that comes out. Around this time last year, Oreo announced their limited edition flavor, Maple Creme. Well, as you may have already gathered from reading the title…they’re officially back!
These fall-themed cookies were definitely inspired by maple syrup. Seeing as how maple syrup basically goes with everything (and it smells amazing), this has to be one of their greatest ideas yet. The package describes them as a “golden cookie with maple flavor creme.” The design consists of bright, warm colors to signal the change into the fall season and an adorable display of scattered maple leaves.
You can get a glimpse of the comeback cookie from Instagram user @CandyHunting.
Here’s Where to Find Them
These delectable Oreos have already been spotted in-store at Walmart and are also available on Walmart’s website for a little under $4 a package. While they may be here to celebrate the coming of fall, we’re not sure how long they’ll be around before the winter holiday-themed treats start to appear. That means stock up while you still can.
You won’t want to “leaf” this opportunity alone!
