OREO Muffins are part of the brand's expanded bakery product portfolio that are slated to hit store shelves in January 2026 to help consumers enjoy the signature taste and texture in an alternative format. The product muffins feature a dark cocoa-driven composition that's paired with tasting notes of the sandwich cookie's signature creme to give it familiar taste with a new taste and texture. The muffins come in a two-pack format to make them ideal for on-the-go or out of the house breakfasts.
OREO Muffins come as part of the brand's expanded portfolio that leans more heavily into bakery treats that play on the classic sandwich cookie's distinct flavor. This comes as part of a strategy to catch the attention of shoppers with new formats and familiar flavors.
