Dunkaroos Has a New Line of Dunkaroos Merch Inspired by the '90s
Katherine Pendrill — July 22, 2020 — Marketing
To celebrate the triumphant return of Dunkaroos to store shelves this summer, the brand has launched its very own line of Dunkaroos merch.
For those unfamiliar, Dunkaroos was a dual-compartment snack that contained cookies on one end and frosting on the other end for dunking. The snack was popular in the 1990s, but was discontinued in the U.S. in 2012. This summer, the product was finally brought back, and with its return comes a whole new lineup of Dunkaroo merch.
The new Dunkaroos merch is inspired by the brand's iconic neon color scheme and boasts bold '90s prints. Some of the standout items in the new collection include dunking cookie socks, a cookie print bucket hat, and a camp shirt featuring the iconic Dunkaroos mascot. All items can be purchased from dunkaroos.com, starting Wednesday, July 22, at 11 a.m. ET.
