Yesterday, I covered the evolution of Oreo cookie packaging from the 1950’s through the early 2,000’s.\u00a0\u00a0 Today, I’ll be taking a look at the range of flavors and limited editions that Oreo has released over the past few years.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

Before I get to the domestic brand extensions, I wanted to share two international versions I’ve found.\u00a0 The first is a Double Stuff (note the two F’s) from the UK.\u00a0 I believe Oreos are newly making their way into the UK.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

And here is a limited edition Oreo product from Japan that is a bit like a Moon Pie:<\/p>\n

Oreo has been doing special holiday editions for years, though these days they are much more widely distributed.\u00a0 Here’s a pair of their deluxe holiday editions – the fudge covered Oreos:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

These fudge-covered Oreo special releases are similar to the all-year-round Fudge Cremes – these may be discontinued as I am seeing theme less-and-less:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

Another variation that I’ve encountered was an Oreo redesign that Target released exclusively in 2009.\u00a0 It’s a bit of a throwback to the 1960’s design I showed yesterday:<\/p>\n

Target tested that Oreo redesign, and did the same with their Ritz packaging that year.\u00a0 Note that the Target redesign also received a holiday edition.\u00a0 It looked so similar to the standard, I almost missed it when it was on shelves.<\/p>\n

The major seasonal releases that Oreo has been doing are simply Double Stuf cookies with colored filling and newly designed cookie pieces and packaging:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

A portion of the special releases each year are simply re-branded standard Oreos.\u00a0 Here are a few others that have come out, that are not strictly new flavors.<\/p>\n

Here’s one that changes up the the shape, but not the filling:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

Now onto the especially fun ones – the limited edition flavors:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

This next one is my favorite of the limited edition flavors from recent years:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

In 2011, Nabisco followed the bigger-is-better motif when they introduced their Triple Double Oreo:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

\"\"<\/a>

The last special flavor package I’m sharing today is the one released as Oreo’s 100th Birthday – it’s the Birthday Cake flavor:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

I’d like to close with a piece that I found in my files after yesterday’s article went live.\u00a0 It is a six-pack package from 1993 – which shows us what the packaging looked like after the move from the 70’s-80’s design, but before our modern look had taken hold:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

That’s all for CollectingCandy.com’s two-day Oreo celebration.\u00a0 Check back tomorrow for another fun candy piece.<\/p>\n
