Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups and Oreo Cookies. When it comes to sweet treats you can’t get more iconic than those two legendary foodstuffs. Each, in its purest form, is perfection. By definition, you can’t improve on something that is already perfect. But what you can try to do is create something that is just as good. That’s exactly what those two brands are going to try and do now together. Twice. Reese’s and Oreo have united for two delectable snacks that will finally deliver the culinary crossover fans have long hoped for.
America’s #1 candy and America’s #1 cookie are combining their powers. Reese’s and Oreo have announced they’re partnering up on a double dose of sweet treats. Customers will soon be able to pick up Reese’s OREO Cups and the OREO Reese’s Cookies.
This mashup is exactly what you’d hope it would be. The Reese’s OREO Cups—which will come both full sized and mini—features milk chocolate and white creme peanut butter cups with OREO cookie crumbs. The OREO Reese’s Cookies have OREO’s chocolate sandwich cookies with a Reese’s peanut buttery creme and OREO cookie crumbs in-between.
“At Reese’s, we’re obsessed with pushing the boundaries of what chocolate and peanut butter can become — and our fans fuel that fire,” said Dan Mohnshine, Vice President, U.S. Confection Marketing, The Hershey Company, in a press release. “When we heard the incredible demand for a Reese’s and OREO mashup, we knew we had to make magic happen. This isn’t just another product launch — it’s two legendary brands coming together to create something absolutely unprecedented that’ll blow minds and taste buds everywhere.”
Fans can make their minds and taste buds soon. The cups will go on pre-sale at Hershey’s Store on August 18. Sign up here for early access. That’s the same day the cookies will be up for pre-sale, but you can already sign up for early access now. Both items will then hit stores nationwide in September while supplies last.
That’s the only thing keeping this crossover from true perfection – it’s going to end.
