Kodiak Cakes, a pancake and waffle mix brand owned by L. Catterton, has announced the launch of an all-new baked snack product line called 'Thin and Crispy Cookies.' The new line will consist of three cookie flavors: Chocolate Chip, Chocolate Chip Walnut, and Oatmeal Raisin.
The new line of cookies is made with 100% whole grains and is entirely free of GMO-containing ingredients, making them a suitable snack option for health-conscious consumers. In addition, thanks to their hearty ingredients, each cookie packs a substantial 5 grams of protein.
Currently, 'Thin and Crispy Cookies' are available for purchase at Stop & Shop and Kroger stores throughout the United States, where they are being sold at the suggested retail price of $4.99 per box.
