USA – Two beloved cookie brands, Chip City X Bloom and Tate’s, are stirring excitement this season with limited-edition treats that blend nostalgia, innovation, and festive flair.
Chip City and Bloom Nutrition have teamed up to launch a limited-edition Apple Fritter cookie, available nationwide starting October 21st, coinciding with National Apple Day, and remaining on the menu through October 31st.
This collaboration draws inspiration from Bloom’s new limited-edition Sparkling Energy Drink flavor, Crisp Apple.
The cookie blends the flavors of fall, featuring apple pie spices, a glazed donut texture, and vanilla icing, evoking the cozy essence of apple fritters traditionally associated with autumn harvest celebrations.
Chip City CEO Peter Phillips described the cookie as “a little crisp, a little sweet, and 100% fall,” perfectly capturing the season’s flavors.
Chip City, known for its rotating menu of over 100 cookie flavors across its 50+ locations in states like Connecticut, Florida, New York, Texas, and Virginia, continues to stand out with innovative flavors that resonate with seasonal trends.
The Crisp Apple Fritter cookie offers a fresh alternative to classic doughy cookies, being thinner, chewier, and crispy.
The collaboration leverages Bloom’s viral Sparkling Crisp Apple energy drink flavor, which gained popularity after launching in Target stores earlier in 2025, creating a unique cross-category combo for consumers seeking both indulgence and energy.

Separately, Tate’s Bake Shop has reintroduced its popular Peppermint Cookie Bark, just in time for the festive season.
This product is a seasonal delight featuring Tate’s signature crunchy cookies topped with creamy white chocolate and festive peppermint pieces.
The reintroduction aims to capture the holiday spirit, offering consumers a perfect balance of sweetness and refreshing peppermint flavor.
Packaged in festive red and green resealable bags, the bark offers a perfect balance of buttery crunch, minty freshness, and chocolate indulgence.
It’s available in 3-packs on Tate’s website for US$20 and in 4.6oz pouches at retailers like Target.
Tate’s Peppermint Cookie Bark is designed to be a versatile treat, ideal for gifting, holiday gatherings, or personal indulgence.
The Chip City and Bloom partnership launches a cozy, fall-inspired Apple Fritter cookie driven by a trendy crisp apple energy drink flavor, while Tate’s Bake Shop leverages the holiday season with the return of its festive Peppermint Cookie Bark.
