Coca‑Cola® and OREO® Become “Besties” for the First Time to Launch a Limited-Edition Drink and Cookie
14 August 2024, NEW ZEALAND – To celebrate friendship, Coca‑Cola® and OREO® have teamed up as “besties” to create exclusive treats for fans to share with their very own besties for a limited time only. Inspired by “besties” around the world, the global brands have dropped two limited-edition products: the OREO® Coca‑Cola™ Sandwich Cookie and the Coca‑Cola® OREO® Zero Sugar Limited Edition, which are available across New Zealand from this September.
Like true friends, the brands have come together to create a delicious twist on two classics that we all know and love, proving that we really are better together. With each sip of the Coca‑Cola® OREO® Zero Sugar Limited Edition, fans can savour a refreshing Coca‑Cola® taste with flavourful hints inspired by OREO® cookies, creating a unique flavour experience and combination to enjoy with friends. While the Limited-Edition OREO® Coca‑Cola® flavoured Sandwich Cookies brings to life the Coca‑Cola® taste fans know and love, embossed with Coca‑Cola® cookie designs, also including red sprinkles in the creme filling.
“We want to offer the most exciting flavour combinations to fans that are new and unexpected. This is why we are bringing together the playfulness of OREO and the Real Magic of Coca‑Cola to make the perfect pairing” said Kate Miller, Senior Marketing Director at Coca‑Cola South Pacific. “We’re thrilled to invite besties to join us in celebrating friendship and hope that they enjoy the flavour combination that this first-of-its-kind collaboration brings.”
“Innovation and playfulness are at the heart of OREO, and we always strive to explore and push the boundaries of playfulness through unexpectedly tasty new flavours and fun collaborations. Through this partnership between OREO and Coca‑Cola, we are celebrating the power of friendship by bringing two icons together,” said Ben Wicks, Vice President Marketing – Australia New Zealand. “We are looking forward to delighting Kiwis with these limited-edition products, an experience to share together with a bestie!”
For the ultimate bestie tasting experience, fans can scan the Coca‑Cola® and OREO® products and follow some easy steps to explore the ‘Bestie Mode’, which allows them to sync up music preferences with their bestie. Once connected to a Spotify account, fans will be prompted with questions to see how their taste in music stacks up against their bestie. A playlist will then be generated with the combined music preferences for the besties to enjoy together.
The OREO® Coca‑Cola™ Sandwich Cookie and Coca‑Cola® OREO® Zero Sugar Limited Edition will be available in New Zealand from this September across major grocery retailers, dairies and petrol stations.
