Some of the unconventional [Oreo](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/popup-bagels-x-oreo) cookie flavors that have been launched over the years include everything from cotton candy to watermelon, and the legendary cookie company is continuing to experiment with its #MyOreoCreation campaign.

With #MyOreoCreation, Oreo fans are invited to submit their inventive flavor ideas in the hopes of them being produced by the company. While there are plenty of similar [snack invention contests](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/auntie-annes-and-cinnabon) that have been launched by other big-name brands across the food and beverage industry, fans rarely receive individual recognition for great ideas. As such, Oreo is making small-batch prototypes of inventive cookie flavors and sending them back to fans to test.

Some of the unusual flavor ideas that are being considered include Pineapple Upside-Down Cake, Raspberry Danish and New York Cheesecake.
