[Crumbl](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bite-sized-pie) may be best known for its cookies, but this spring you can expect to find new Key Lime Pies on the menu.

Available alongside the cookie chain's rotating cookie menu, the new Key Lime Pie is a tasty break from tradition. Available as part of the menu for the week ending on April 6, 2024, the new Key Lime Pie pairs a fresh lime zest filling with a buttery graham cracker crust, and tops the whole thing off with a generous portion of whipped cream and a fresh lime slice.

Alongside the new Key Lime Pies, Crumbl will also be serving up some of its classic cookie creations, including the Chocolate Cookies & Cream Cookie, the [Raspberry Butter Cake Cookie](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/new-butter-cake), the Classic Pink Sugar Cookie, and more.
