Costco is known for stocking mega-sized versions of everything we might need, from Metamucil to oversized Kirkland margaritas. It’s also known for amazing bakery items, including enormous pies and fudgy brownies. This time, though, Costco’s latest and greats treat is found in the freezer section.
What’s Are the Mini French Eclairs?
Instagrammer @costco_empties shared a photo of Costco’s newest dessert, and they look très bien! Each of the mini éclairs, which are made in France, are made with choux pastry, filled with a traditional custard cream and glazed with colorful icing. (You may remember choux pastry from The Great British Baking Show.)
This box of mini French eclairs comes with six of each delicious flavor—pistachio, raspberry, mango & passionfruit and salted caramel. They may not be traditional eclairs, but they are fun flavors!

The petite size of each eclair makes them the perfect mini snack. It also makes them perfect for something else—a sweet charcuterie board. As one Instagrammer says, “Need these for a dessert board!” We totally agree. This box of eclairs would be be a great addition to an Easter-inspired charcuterie board, alongside other colorful Easter treats like bright Peeps, cookies, chocolate eggs and pastel M&M’s.
This isn’t the first French delicacy Costco has offered to customers. Recently, they were selling strawberry-filled brioche loaves.
But How Much Do They Cost?
You’ll find these mini eclairs in the freezer case at Costco. The price for a pack of 24 varies depending on your location, we’ve seen $11.69 and $12.99. Seasonal baked goods like this are part of what make a Costco membership worth so it!
