Costco's New Bakery Dessert Tray Has Something For Everyone - Tasting Table

"If there's anything better than a thick, rich, and tasty dessert bar, it's 32 of them - all in one package. That's what Costco shoppers have at their fingertips with the mouth-dropping (and mouth-watering) Kirkland Signature Variety Dessert Bars, available in four luscious flavors. Lined up in tidy, tempting rows, visible beneath the clear packaging, are eight each of the following bars: Pecan Caramel Brownies, Wildberry Macaroons, Chocolate Chunk Brookies, and Macaroon Madness Bars."

"Prices are, as usual, subject to location, but seem to be around $20 at most stores, which comes out to about 60 cents per bar - a true Costco find. As you might imagine, reviews are gushing and enthusiastic thus far. One shopper called them soft and delicious, while another said they were running to Costco in hopes of snagging a box. Another Costco fan called them awesome and shared their plan to freeze them for quick after-dinner desserts (and to keep them out of sight)."

"Costco goodies tend to fly off shelves, and there's no word yet on how long the new Variety Dessert Bars collection will be available - or how often they'll be replenished. True Costco devotees may be flying toward the bakery section, but you can avoid the sweet-treat crowds by shopping online. The dessert bar collection currently shows a Seattle-area Costco shopping/delivery price of $22.69, fulfilled by Instacart."

The Kirkland Signature Variety Dessert Bars package contains 32 dessert bars in four flavors: Pecan Caramel Brownies, Wildberry Macaroons, Chocolate Chunk Brookies, and Macaroon Madness Bars, eight of each. Retail prices vary by location but typically run around $20 per box, roughly 60 cents per bar. Early shopper reviews describe the bars as soft, delicious, and worthy of freezing for later. The collection appears in Costco bakeries and online via Instacart, with a Seattle-area listing at $22.69 and same-day delivery windows. Non-members can replicate flavors at home using brownie and macaron recipes.
