Farewell to Two Beloved Girl Scout Cookie Flavors After 2025
It’s that time of year again when the Girl Scouts roll out their iconic cookies, filling our hearts (and bellies) with joy. However, this cookie season brings bittersweet news. The Girl Scouts of the USA (GSUSA) have announced that after 2025, two of their beloved cookie flavors, S’mores and Toast-Yay!, will be retired. This marks the end of a sweet chapter for many cookie enthusiasts.
The S’mores cookie, introduced in 2017, quickly became a fan favorite, combining the classic flavors of marshmallow, chocolate, and graham cracker in one delicious bite. On the other hand, Toast-Yay!, a French toast-inspired cookie, joined the lineup in 2021 and brought a delightful new twist to the Girl Scouts' cookie offerings. Despite their popularity, these two flavors will be disappearing, making way for new and innovative treats in future cookie seasons.

While the reasons behind the retirements haven't been officially disclosed, the Girl Scouts have a long-standing tradition of refreshing their cookie lineup. This ensures they stay in touch with changing tastes and keep things exciting for cookie fans. With the departure of these two flavors, there’s a sense of nostalgia, but also anticipation for what might be next on the horizon.
For those wondering if this change will spark another online frenzy like the Raspberry Rally debacle of 2023, GSUSA is likely hoping to avoid the chaos. The limited-edition raspberry cookies, which caused boxes to be resold for as much as $30 on eBay, showed the high demand and emotional connection fans have with certain cookie varieties. By giving a heads-up about the retirements, they aim to prevent the same issues with S’mores and Toast-Yay!
Sadly, even Girl Scout cookies aren’t immune to inflation. For 2025, the price of a box may rise to $7, an increase of $1 from the previous years. While some areas may keep prices steady, rising production costs are the main reason behind this adjustment. However, the price increase is a small price to pay for the joy that these cookies bring, as they also directly contribute to empowering young girls in leadership, entrepreneurship, and community-building activities.
Though the retirements of S’mores and Toast-Yay! might feel like the end of an era, the tradition of Girl Scout cookies continues to thrive. As cookie season kicks off this year, don’t miss the chance to grab your favorites, including Thin Mints, Samoas, and Tagalongs, before these two beloved flavors vanish for good. Who knows—this could be the perfect opportunity to explore some new flavors that will undoubtedly make their mark in the future.
So, if you're a fan of S’mores or Toast-Yay!, savor every bite while you can. As the Girl Scouts say, "Discontinuing these cookies may lead to something new and delicious." And who knows? Maybe the next flavor will be your new favorite.
