Calling all Harry Potter fans! If you’ve ever dreamed of sipping Butterbeer in the Three Broomsticks, you’re going to love this magical news. Warner Bros. has teamed up with a variety of partners to bring us a taste of the Wizarding World straight to your snack shelf inspired by Butterbeer! And it’s every bit as enchanting as it sounds.
Butterbeer season, if you didn’t know, runs from March 1st – May 31st! Although, I must say, I personally wouldn’t mind if it was year round! Whether you’re a lifelong fan of the books or still rewatching the films on repeat, get ready to snack like you’re at Hogwarts. The line up of partners Warner Bros. has teamed up with Goldfish, Hershey, Keebler, SkinnyPop, Orly, and Running Press! It’s quite an impressive set of snacks featuring the iconic Butterbeer flavor. Let’s dive into the delicious details of this sweet collaboration!
Goldfish – Our Rating: 4.25/5
The collaboration with Goldfish is unexpected – it’s a sweet graham cracker that captures the essence of butterbeer by offering a delightful blend of rich butterscotch and creamy vanilla flavors. The snack features hints of brown butter and cinnamon that result in a delicious harmony.
SkinnyPop – Our Rating: 3.75/5
Who doesn’t love a popcorn afternoon snack? The SkinnyPop x Butterbeer collab was one I was so looking forward to! The combination is slightly sweet with a hint of butterscotch flavor! My only wish is that the flavor was amped up a bit.
HERSHEY – Our Rating: 4.5/5
As a lover of butterscotch, these are totally my jam. They are the perfect sweetness and strong in flavor. They are definitely a tiny treat but I really enjoyed them!
Keeblers – Our Rating: 4.5/5
These were an unexpected surprise favorite! The buttery shortbread cookies are drizzled with rich Butterbeer-flavored fudge. They are sweet but have a subtle frothiness and dare I say a slight lemon flavor that captures the tastebuds with the yummy cream soda and butterscotch flavors. I highly recommend trying these if you see them!
They also collaborated with ORLY on a set of butterbeer scented nail care products! The scent is nice and gentle and a fun way to bring Butterbeer season to your nails. Check it out at Ulta next time you’re there!
Which of the Butterbeer-inspired products would you try first? I’d love to know in the comments!
