Foodie Friday: Birthday Cake Oreos

These babies are 3 weeks overdue for a well deserved shout out on my part!

Oreos 100th Birthday was on March 6th and I can't think of a better way to celebrate than cramming what tastes like funfetti cupcakes (my favorite!) into America's favorite cookie. Since these are limited edition, I'm not sure how long they will be available in stores, so be a fat kid like me and stock up on an ungodly amount of bags before they are gone. I've searched six or seven stores, but only found them thus far at Target and CVS.





Don't be alarmed when you open the bag and it smells like you are in heaven, you aren't dead....yet. Maybe after you and your coworker eat an entire bag in just a few short hours, but I made it out alive. Don't judge me.



I would like to give Nabisco my stamp of approval for exceeding my high expectations and not just coloring the cream like they seem to do with every other festive Oreo cookie. Well done.

edit // tonight I stumbled across this magical concoction at the grocery store, can't wait to try it, though I'm sure it will be nothing short of amazing!

    1. I'm not either, but I love birthday cake anything! Frosting, cupcakes, ice cream... so these were a must!

      Also, I'm not sure if you saw, but I just found the ice cream version of this delicious treat tonight!

  2. I was totally bummed out by these! I don't know what I was expecting but I think that regular oreo's have still got my heart!

    1. I feel the same way. They smell insanely delicious, but I didn't think they tasted much different from the original. Maybe its because I don't eat Oreos on the regular?

    2. I like regular oreos, but it isn't often that I crave them. These were totally fantastic though and I'm already on my third bag! :-x

  3. I just tried the berry flavored Oreos and was not too impressed. But these look insane and I am going to be purchasing them asap.

  4. Funfetti-looking Oreos sound so delicious right now! My fiance actually tried to throw some in our cart at Target the other day and I said no, not realizing that they were super fancy special Oreos.

  7. Ooh... I want to coat these in pink-colored white chocolate. I don't even like chocolate and that sounds nice. Is that too ambitious? Haha. You find the most amazing snacks at all times!!
