For the return of OREO Cakesters, OREO is rewinding time in collaboration with the last Blockbuster located in Bend, Oregon. Visitors are welcomed to the video store takeover with a co-branded marquee, OREO Cakesters-themed movie posters and free samples of OREO Cakesters in retro VHS-inspired packaging.
This collaboration with the last Blockbuster promises to take cookie fans right back to the 2000s and they will appreciate cookie packaging that features all sorts of popular movie genres.
The cookies were first launched in 2007 and discontinued five years later but nostalgia revived them. Fans of the soft-baked cookie snacks have been patiently awaiting the return of OREO Cakesters and this celebrates their return. Now, OREO Cakesters are coming to select retailers.
