Wetzel’s Pretzels is transforming its classic snack lineup into an indulgent dessert experience with the debut of OREO Bitz. This brand-new, limited-time menu item combines warm, freshly baked pretzel bites with the iconic flavors of America’s favorite cookie.
This new menu item begins with a base of warm, freshly baked Original Bitz. The pretzel bites are then drizzled with a rich vanilla crème, dusted with crushed cookie pieces, and crowned with whole Mini OREO cookies to deliver a satisfying crunch. The result is a delicious mashup of textures and flavors that is soft, creamy, and crunchy all at once.
These portable treats are designed for on-the-go snacking. They make the perfect companion whether you are walking through the mall, heading out on a road trip, or planning to enjoy cheap kids movies this summer.
The cookies-and-cream treats will be available at participating locations nationwide starting June 1 and running through October 4, while supplies last. To celebrate the release, members of the brand’s loyalty program can take advantage of a special promotion. From June 1 through June 7, rewards members will receive a $1 discount on their purchase of the new cookie-topped pretzel bites.
According to Sarah Curtis, the Head of Marketing at Wetzel’s Pretzels, the nostalgic and fun flavor profile of the chocolate sandwich cookies makes them a perfect match for the brand’s hot, fresh pretzel bites.
