Keebler Just Dropped Wicked-Themed Mint Fudge Stripes—and They’re Shockingly Good

‘Tis the season to be truly obsessulated with Wicked. My mailbox is riddled with swankified PR mailers riding the hype of the movie—from the official Paris Hilton/Absolut Vodka collaboration (featuring a pink-to-green sequined bottle sleeve) to the unofficial “Defying Thirst” cocktail duo from Bartesian. And now, I’ve got my hands on Keebler’s new Chocolatey Mint Wicked Fudge Stripes. 

Their last brand collab, the Superman-adorned berry-flavored Fudge Stripes, didn’t do the original cookies justice. Let’s see if Elphaba can work her magic with the wildly innovative flavor combination of chocolate and mint. (It can’t be worse than last year’s color-changing macaroni & cheese.)

New Wicked Cookies!

Chocolatey Mint Wicked Fudge Stripes Cookies

Pros: Good news, Ozmopolitans: These cookies are positively thrillifying. I had to stop myself from polishing off the pack before I actually sat down to write this piece; I ate two rows in a clock’s tick. These are very similar in taste and texture to a familiar chocolate-and-mint cookie—no surprise, considering Keebler used to produce the most accurate dupe of that cookie. Wizomaniac or not, these cookies will have you giving a standing ovation in your least-ratty oversized grey cardigan.

Cons: My biggest complaint is that these are hard to find and limited edition. Chocolate and mint are a proven success, so why aren’t these a year-round option? Elphaba’s spells can never be undone; here’s hoping these cookies end up sticking around for good.

Where can I get Chocolatey Mint Wicked Fudge Stripes?

Usually, this is where I’d say “I’ve already seen these on shelves here, here, and here”… but I haven’t found these anywhere. And I’ve been looking! If it wasn’t obvious from my article full of Wicked vocabulary words, my household is full of theater kids who’ve been on the Wicked train long before Idina Menzel was on Glee. I’m not sure what the holdup is on getting these cookies into stores, but they must be launching sooner than later. If you hear a battle cry near the cookie aisle, it’s a safe bet to assume these are in stock.
