The cookies feature the brand's signature cookies in a pretzel flavor that's both slightly bread-flavored with notes of salt, which will pair perfectly with the [chocolate creme filling](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hello-panda-pretzel). The cookies are positioned as a first-of-its-kind product from the brand as the treats have yet to feature any flavor options with salt in the mix. Chocolate Covered Pretzel Oreo sandwich cookies are arriving at retailers in the US starting May 5, 2025 but will only be available for a limited time to encourage consumers to pick them up while they can.
