Co-Branded Cookie Collaborations

Chips Ahoy! and HERSHEY's Push Two New Cookie Innovations

— March 11, 2020 — Marketing
Two new delicious cookie innovations are brought to sweet-toothed consumers through a strategic collaboration between two popular brands—Chips Ahoy! and HERSHEY's. Made available starting the month of March, these must-try flavors call out to chocolate lovers and peanut butter enthusiasts.

The first cookie innovation mixes Chips Ahoy!'s product with HERSHEY's Milk Chocolate for a mouth-watering experience that "combines the smooth, sweet taste of milk chocolate" with the classic cookie. The second launch, on the other hand, takes cues from Reese's Pieces peanut butter desserts. The cookie innovation is merged with mini Reese's Pieces.

The co-branded mash-ups are sure to entice consumers who are loyal to the products of both companies. These cookie innovations can be found nationwide and will retail for the accessible price of $2.95.
