Keebler® Celebrates New Whoopsy! Fudge Stripes™ Cookies On National Fudge Day
Keebler creates #FullyFudged experience in New York City to honor new cookie on the tastiest day of the year
BATTLE CREEK, Mich., June 15, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- The story goes that the Keebler Elves were looking for fudge for their cookie creations inside the Hollow Tree® and stumbled upon more delicious fudge than they could have ever imagined! As a result, they created the new Keebler Whoopsy!™ Fudge Stripes cookies. The newest addition to the Keebler Fudge Shoppe portfolio takes the iconic Keebler round shortbread cookies and fully enrobes them in rich, decadent fudge.
On National Fudge Day, Ernie and the Keebler elves are inviting cookie lovers to step inside the Hollow Tree to celebrate the new cookie and see the fudge geyser – the primary source of all the decadent fudge – for themselves! The #FullyFudged experience will allow fans to get in on the action and use the Elves' extra fudge in many hands-on and unique ways including:
- Fudge-It-Yourself: Keebler Whoopsy! Cookie Fudging Station – Never before done, fans will be able to use both Keebler fudge and a plain Keebler shortbread cookie to create their very own #FullyFudged cookie – just like the elves in the Hollow Tree!
- Meet & Greet with Ernie – Show off your fudgy decorating masterpiece during a meet and greet with Ernie himself.
- Giant Keebler Cookie Fudge Dunking Station – Featuring a larger-than-life, 2-foot cookie, fans will be able to assist Ernie in fully fudging the cookie by dunking it in a huge pot of delicious fudge.
- Keebler Whoopsy! Cookie Painting – Help Ernie and the elves put fudge stripes on some of the jumbo, 2-foot cookies with a giant paintbrush!
