As part of its FOMO Flavors project, Brooklyn-based cookie company Legally Addictive Foods is introducing a series of limited-edition treats, including its Crack Cookies in a Surprise Party flavor.

This new limited-edition treat made with layered cracker, [handmade salted toffee](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/toffee-butter-brickle-cookie), chocolate, plus sea salt and rainbow sprinkles for good measure, takes inspiration from boldly colored [birthday cake desserts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/birthday-cake-cookie). This new product was developed to be a colorful addition to Legally Addictive Foods' lineup and an appealing treat for people of all ages. In terms of taste and texture, the treats are said to be both [salty and sweet](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chocolate-covered-pretzel-oreo), as well as chocolatey and crunchy.

While the Surprise Party Crack Cookies have the potential to be enjoyed as a celebration snack, they may also be used to brighten any ordinary day.
