This Returning Costco Snack Find Tastes Like Sweet Summer
If your childhood memories include racing down the street after the ice cream truck for those iconic strawberry shortcake bars, Costco may have just brought back one of the most nostalgic snacks of the summer. It taps into those same fruity, creamy flavors many of us still remember fondly.
Shoppers are already buzzing about the seasonal warehouse find, which brings that classic flavor into a bite-sized format. And it might just be one of the easiest impulse buys in the warehouse right now.
You can get a closer look in this May 13 TikTok from @costcobuys:

Edward Marc Strawberry Shortcake Bites Are Back at Costco for Summer
The Edward Marc Strawberry Shortcake Bites are made with buttery shortbread cookies filled with strawberry-flavored crème for that familiar dessert-inspired flavor. According to the packaging shared in the video, the bites are made without preservatives or artificial flavors.
As @costcobuys put it in the caption, "They taste exactly like a strawberry shortcake bar, and I absolutely cannot stop eating them." Which might make these a little dangerous once the bag is open.

The 20-ounce bag is priced at $11.49, though pricing can vary slightly by warehouse. The resealable format also makes them easy to keep on hand for road trips, movie nights, beach days, or just grabbing a handful straight from the pantry when you want something sweet without making a full dessert.
And shoppers seem just as excited to see them returning this year. Over on Reddit's r/Costco forum, one person shared, "They were giving out samples. Had one bite and these bags went straight into my cart."
Another recommended keeping them chilled, writing, "They're best in the fridge," while also suggesting they work well crushed over ice cream for extra texture and flavor.
Someone else joked, "Satan, I did not need to read this temptation today."
If you grew up chasing down the ice cream truck for strawberry shortcake bars, there's a good chance these won't last long once they make it into your pantry.
