Users on the social media platform were excited to see the discovery. Several commenters expressed their love for this seasonal treat, with one writing, “I look forward to these every year!” According to the Häagen-Dazs website, the popular peppermint bark ice cream bars are only available from October to December of each year and feature “decadent white chocolate ice cream, dipped in thick, dark chocolate, then speckled with cool peppermint candy.” It might be a bit surprising to learn that the ice cream itself isn’t mint flavored, but the crunchy candy shards provide the necessary notes of cooling peppermint.
If you don’t find the bars during your next Costco run, keep an eye out for Häagen-Dazs’ peppermint bark ice cream pints. While it may not be the same experience as the chocolate-dipped bar, one TikToker swears that people looking for a spoonful of peppermint to kick off their holiday season will definitely appreciate this flavor.
