Costco has brought back its popular holiday treat, Kirkland Signature Peppermint Bark, to its shelves earlier than usual this season. The 21-ounce container, which features layers of dark and white chocolate topped with crushed peppermint candy, is now available for $12.99 at some locations. This price is a decrease from last year's price of $16.99, which sparked an outcry from shoppers who felt it was too high.
The peppermint bark is a seasonal favorite among Costco shoppers, who use it as a dessert topping, a hostess gift, or to elevate a mug of hot cocoa. Some fans have praised the treat as being "absolutely fire" and "way better than" other peppermint bark options available on the market.
The price of $12.99 brings the treat closer to its former value, even if it remains above its 2023 price of $9.99. For comparison, a similar peppermint bark product from Williams-Sonoma costs around $35.
Costco has also begun restocking other holiday treats and gifts, including Toblerone Biscoff truffles, Lindt Teddy Advent calendars, and assorted Lindor truffles. The company is also restocking its Kirkland Signature organic Madagascar vanilla beans, which can be used in holiday desserts or to make homemade vanilla extract.
The availability and pricing of the peppermint bark may vary depending on the location, but at $12.99, it remains a relatively affordable option compared to some specialty alternatives.
