The Girl Scout Cookie Flavors You’ll Want to Stock Up on Before They’re Gone for Good

There’s something about the start of the year that feels like a fresh beginning—new goals, new habits, and, of course, the sweet promise of Girl Scout cookies. Those colorful cookie stands outside grocery stores and neighborhoods bring back childhood nostalgia and spark debates about the ultimate flavor champion. (Spoiler: It’s Thin Mints, right?)

But as we celebrate another cookie season, here’s a heads-up you might not be ready for: two flavors are getting their last dance in 2025 before being retired forever. And if either is on your personal favorites list, now’s the time to act.

What’s Leaving the Lineup?

Let’s rip the Band-Aid off—S’mores and Toast-Yay! are officially being retired after this season.

S’mores, which debuted in 2016, have had a solid run. With their marshmallow and chocolate filling sandwiched between graham-flavored cookies, they captured the essence of a campfire classic without the hassle of sticky fingers. For nearly a decade, they’ve filled a unique spot in the Girl Scout cookie lineup.

Toast-Yay!, on the other hand, is a younger addition. Released in 2021, these toast-shaped cookies with a French toast-inspired flavor and a sweet icing dip were a quirky yet delightful addition. Unfortunately, their debut during the pandemic in 2020 meant they didn’t get the spotlight they deserved. Their limited availability likely didn’t help their case either.

How to Grab Them Before They’re Gone

While it’s sad to say goodbye, there’s good news: you still have one more season to stock up. But you’ll need to act fast, as availability depends on your location.

Start by keeping an eye out for cookie booths popping up near you. The Girl Scouts also have a handy online tracker—just plug in your zip code to find nearby stands. Starting February 21, you can even order cookies online and have them shipped straight to your door (perfect for those who “accidentally” eat their stash too quickly). Or if texting is more your speed, send “COOKIES” to 59618, and they’ll connect you with local sellers.

What’s Next for the Cookie World?

The silver lining of these retirements? They make space for new flavors to join the iconic lineup. While no official announcements have been made, the Girl Scouts have a history of bringing creative and unique cookies into the mix. Who knows? The next big thing might be your new obsession.

So, whether you’re team S’mores, team Toast-Yay!, or just team all the cookies, now’s the time to indulge in these two before they’re gone for good. And who are we kidding? Buying “extras” is totally justified—after all, cookies this good deserve to be savored.

What’s your plan—stockpile, share, or savor every last bite?
