Caramel Apple Cookies

Caramel Apple Oreos Are Half Green Apple and Half Caramel Cream

— August 21, 2014 — Lifestyle
Something for Target shoppers to look forward to this fall includes the launch of the exclusive Oreo Caramel Apple cookies.

Rather than being filled with plain vanilla cream, the cookies will feature a flavoring that is part green apple and part caramel, just like a candy-coated apple that you'd get at a food festival. The golden cookies even look a little more toasty than usual, which seems fitting for the fall season. Although there have been some fake Oreo flavors like Fried Chicken that have been circulating the Internet, Oreo Caramel Apple Cookies is one flavor that you can be sure will be popping up in stores at the end of August, as confirmed by a tweet from Target CMO Jeff Jones.
Trend Themes
1. Flavored Cookies - Creating unique and unexpected flavors for traditional cookies offers the opportunity for disruptive innovation in the cookie industry.
