Snoopy, Charlie Brown and the whole Peanuts gang are here to celebrate with the new Duncan Hines baking collection.
There are some things I simply cannot resist. A new limited-edition grocery item? I’m listening. Cute packaging? You’ve got my attention. Snoopy? Okay, now you have me sprinting down the baking aisle like Charlie Brown running toward that football.
Duncan Hines just launched a new Peanuts-inspired baking collection, and I may need to buy every single box. The lineup includes six baking mixes, each inspired by a beloved character, that are perfect for treats from pumpkin season all the way through the winter holidays. And honestly? The packaging alone is cute enough that I’m considering clearing a shelf to display them in my pantry.
The collection arrived this month as part of a larger Peanuts collaboration that also includes Swiss Miss hot cocoa. So, if you were looking for an excuse to spend the next several months baking cookies, sipping cocoa and watching every Peanuts special you can find, congratulations: Your plans have officially been made.
What’s in the Duncan Hines Snoopy baking collection?
Let’s start with what may be my favorite name in the entire collection: the Charlie Brown-ie Blondie Bar Mix. Yes, really. The blondie bars are inspired by Charlie Brown’s iconic zigzag shirt, with chocolate brownie zigzags running across the top. I actually can’t wait to bring these to my neighbor’s holiday potluck.
Snoopy, naturally, gets his own mix too. The Snoopy Crinkle Cookie Mix makes chocolate crinkle cookies, which feels like exactly the kind of treat I’d want to eat while watching A Charlie Brown Christmas for the 400th time.
Then there’s The Great Pumpkin Bundt Cake and Glaze Mix, which combines pumpkin cake with an orange-colored glaze. The winter lineup also includes Snoopy Skate Yellow Cupcake Mix with white frosting and blue snowflake sprinkles, Peppermint Patty Brownie Mix and Lucy’s Snowball Cookie Kit. Basically, there’s a Peanuts dessert for every mood and every holiday gathering.
When can you buy the Snoopy baking mixes?
The good news is that you don’t have to wait until November to start your Peanuts baking marathon. According to Duncan Hines, the collection is rolling out at retailers this month, with the mixes remaining available through the holiday season. Prices vary by retailer and location, but they should generally range from $2.49 to $5.49.
And yes, I am already planning which one to try first. The Great Pumpkin cake feels seasonally appropriate, but those Charlie Brown-ie bars are calling my name. I guess I’ll just have to buy both. Oh, bother.
