Ferrero's Mother's Cookies brand is partnering with Magnolia Bakery to celebrate National Strawberry Month, featuring the brand's newest flavor: Mother's Sparkling Strawberry Mythical Creatures Cookies. This month, select Magnolia Bakery locations will debut Magnolia Bakery's first Banana Pudding Bar collaboration—Mother's Cookies Strawberry Banana Pudding—a custom pudding bar treat which includes Mother's new strawberry-flavored and sprinkle-topped cookies.

This limited-edition treat features layers of strawberry puree pudding made with oven-roasted strawberries, vanilla wafers, and crumbled Mother's Sparkling Strawberry Mythical Creatures Cookies, all topped with a full-sized, fantasy-inspired cookie to finish.

Mother's reimagined its Mythical Creatures Cookies with a strawberry debut, bringing the unicorns, dragons, sea serpents, and mermaids back in vibrant red and lavender frosting, topped with shimmering silver sprinkles. Each cookie delivers a strawberry flavor that aims to serve as a complement to Magnolia Bakery's World-Famous Banana Pudding.

"Strawberry is undeniably the flavor of summer, and its timelessness brings kids and adults alike to the table," says Julia Witten, senior brand manager at Ferrero. "Magnolia Bakery has spent decades building one of the most devoted fan bases in dessert, turning their iconic banana pudding into a cultural phenomenon that has people lining up around blocks. Partnering that legendary status with Mother's Cookies, as we enter an exciting new era of innovation, is the kind of collaboration that transforms a sweet treat moment into a memory worth savoring."

Through May 24, consumers can visit participating Magnolia Bakery locations in New York City, Chicago, and Los Angeles to try the Mother's Cookies Strawberry Banana Pudding, made with new Strawberry Mythical Creatures Cookies. Additionally, to officially kick-off National Strawberry Month, the first 100 in-store guests to purchase Mother's Cookies Strawberry Banana Pudding at participating locations on Friday, May 1 will receive a free pack of Mother's Sparkling Strawberry Mythical Creatures Cookies. The collaboration will also be available via GrubHub, DoorDash, and Uber Eats for at-home enjoyment.
