Ever since I heard about the Girls Scouts debuting a new gluten-free cookie in December, I have been excited to sample them. Last week we received our Girl Scout cookie order complete with two boxes of the new Toffee-Tastic Cookies. I don’t think the front door was even shut all the way when I dug into the box, which just happened to be as I finished dinner.
While these cookies cost the same as the regular Girl Scout Cookies, they only have one sleeve per box, so you get about half of the number of cookies. The cookies are phenomenal, though, so I really don’t care about the number of cookies. They remind me of Pecan Sandies, but with toffee pieces in place of pecans. My son agreed that these cookies were fantastic and asked me to find some more.
As you can see above, the cookies do contain milk and soy ingredients.
I have heard that these cookies are no longer available, as in they are sold out, so I hope that sends a message to the Girl Scouts to bring them back on an even bigger scale next year. In addition to bringing them back, I would love to see them in every market and have all varieties of gluten-free cookies available in every market. We didn’t have access to the other gluten-free variety here in Columbus this year.
Did you have the opportunity to try either of the Girl Scouts’ gluten-free cookie varieties? What did you think?
Actually, I bought a box yesterday in Santa Fe, NM and you may want to know that at $5. box, they cost $1. more than the $4. per box for regular Girl Scout cookies.
In my area the gluten free cookies cost $1.00 more than the regular Girl Scout cookies. I tried the toffee tactic ones, I didn’t care for the toffee bits.
The cookies also cost $1.00 more in southern Ohio. My husband purchased several packages of the gluten free Trios for me. I just love them. He has also ordered a couple boxes of the Toffeetastics, but I have not received them yet. Looking forward to trying them. We live on the Ky/Oh border and Ky has the Trios and Oh has the Toffee ones, so that’s how I get to try both!
I bought some toffee ones from some Girl Scouts selling them at our local Cub foods. They charged $5.50 per box, and I didn’t care much for them, they seemed kind of stale…
They are available in Northeast Ohio for $5, $1 more than the regular cookies. We should be getting ours soon, cannot wait to try them. Hoping to have other flavors next year and I’ve heard other areas have up to 3 choices.
We love them too! In fact, I just bought another box from some Girl Scouts who had a table set up to sell cookies in front of one of the shopping centers in our neighborhood. So glad they had them, especially since I didn’t realize they were sold out. I still haven’t heard what happened to the gluten free mini chocolate chip cookies they were selling in select markets last year. We had an opportunity to try those, too, and loved them. We were hoping to order more this year, but alas, I haven’t heard a thing about them.
I am a scout leader and have a case and a half of Toffee-tAstic left over… Wish there were customers like you by us so I could get rid of these. Glad you liked them!!
I live in Cleveland,Ohio … I ordered toffee static (2boxes) & they are on “back order” Can you tell me why??
