Costco's 'Dangerous' Fan-Favorite Holiday Treat Is Back on Shelves Early, and Shoppers are Losing It
If you haven’t noticed already, fall is in full effect. While retailers everywhere have been working hard to stock their shelves with the latest fall trends, Costco is leading the way with one super special holiday treat. Fans of the famed Kirkland Signature Peppermint Bark have a lot to get excited about this season, as the beloved treats' early comeback might not have been on their holiday bingo cards.
Spotted by the always informative Costco Hot Finds and quickly shared online to spread the good news, the Kirkland Signature Peppermint Bark has started to make its long-awaited return, and fans could not be more excited for its early arrival. Last year's batch hadn’t hit stores until well into the month of November, so you can imagine the sense of urgency fans suddenly felt upon hearing the news.

“Going to spoil my co-workers with some tomorrow,” one commenter wrote, who had just discovered the return treat in their area. “They just arrived at my store in Maryland.”
In terms of flavor, Costco Hot Finds describes the peppermint bark texture as being “so soft,” saying that the chocolatey treat “just melts in your mouth.” Others chimed in to echo Laura’s sentiments, calling the snack both “dangerous” and “so delicious." Customers who snag a container for themselves can expect to find 21-ounces of the highly sought after bark made with real white and dark chocolate topped with crushed peppermint candy pieces.
While Laura’s reporting does not include the current price of the bark, last year's crop retailed for an easy $9.99 for 21-ounces. Customers should expect prices to vary by location, as well as increasing availability per store as the season progresses. With the holidays right around the corner, the early return of peppermint bark just might be the sign to officially get into the Christmas spirit early this year.
