Aldi just turned your favorite childhood popsicle into a cookie, and honestly? We’re not over it. Starting today, July 15, Benton’s Orange Crèmesicle Sandwich Cookies are hitting shelves for just $2.99 — and if the name alone didn’t already have you sprinting to your car, let us paint the picture: two soft vanilla cookies hugging a bright orange-creme filling, built entirely around the nostalgic flavor of a classic creamsicle. No stick, no melting down your arm, no brain freeze. Just pure summer nostalgia in cookie form.
Aldi’s Oreo Dupe Just Got Its Most Fun Flavor Yet
Benton’s is Aldi’s go-to answer to Oreo, and the brand has built a loyal following by constantly rotating in flavors way more exciting than “chocolate” and “vanilla.” This time, Benton’s is leaning all the way into summer with a citrus-forward creamsicle riff — vanilla cookies sandwiching a tangy-sweet orange creme center. It’s the kind of flavor mashup that sounds a little unhinged on paper but makes complete sense the second you take a bite.
“A vanilla cookie and orange-creme flavored filling inspired by the nostalgic summertime ice cream treat, the creamsicle — unlike a normal creamsicle, you can eat as many as you want without getting brain freeze.”
This isn’t Aldi’s first rodeo with a citrus-flavored Benton’s cookie, but the timing here feels especially spot-on. We’re deep into the dog days of summer, and there’s something delightfully fitting about grabbing a package of orange creamsicle cookies right when you’d normally be chasing down the ice cream truck. Bonus: these won’t melt all over your car’s cup holder on the drive home.
What You’re Getting for $2.99
The Benton’s Orange Crèmesicle Sandwich Cookies come in a 15.25-ounce package, putting them right in line with Aldi’s other Benton’s offerings on price and portion. Per the nutrition info printed on the bag, you’re looking at 140 calories, 3g of saturated fat, and 13g of added sugars per two-cookie serving — basically the exact indulgence math you’d expect from a proper dessert cookie. This is a treat, not a health food, and that’s exactly the point.
Like every Aldi Finds release, though, there’s a catch: once your local store sells out, that’s it. Aldi doesn’t restock Finds items and you can’t order them online, so if the orange creamsicle flavor calls to you, don’t put off that grocery run. Aldi’s Stracciatella Cookie Sandwiches proved just how fast a good frozen treat can vanish from shelves, and we wouldn’t be surprised if these cookies move just as quickly.
Part of a Bigger Wave of July 15 Aldi Finds
The Crèmesicle Cookies aren’t dropping alone today. Aldi’s third wave of July Finds also includes the brand’s new $6.59 Smoothie Protein Bowls, plus a Dubai chocolate-flavored organic coffee creamer. It’s a genuinely stacked shelf day, and if you’re already making the trip for one of these, you might as well grab all three while they’re in stock.
If you want the inside track on why Aldi can pull off drops like this so consistently — and so cheaply — we broke down the Aldi secrets behind the chain’s famously low prices, and it’s worth a read before your next haul.
Should You Grab a Box?
If you’re even a little bit nostalgic for creamsicles, orange push-pops, or those Dreamsicle bars from the ice cream truck, this is a very easy yes. At under $3 for a full package, it’s a low-risk way to try one of the more creative Benton’s flavors Aldi has rolled out this year. Pair them with a glass of cold milk, or get weird and crumble them over vanilla ice cream for an extra creamsicle hit.
Head to your nearest Aldi today, check the Aldi Finds aisle, and grab a box (or three) before this one disappears for good. Have you tried the Orange Crèmesicle Sandwich Cookies yet? Let us know what you think in the comments!
