The inaugural Pop-Tarts Bowl aired in late 2023 and introduced the first-ever Edible Mascot, and in 2024, Pop-Tarts is introducing three new Edible Mascots to follow in the footsteps of the "dearly departed Frosted Strawberry Edible Mascot" who ascended to "mouth heaven."
There's Frosted Wild Berry with a purple frosting and teal swirl, Frosted Hot Fudge Sundae dressed in a chocolatey icing swirl and rainbow sprinkles, and a Mystery Flavor in the form of a previously discontinued fan-favorite variety revived from the flavor vault.
As part of the 2024 Pop-Tarts Bowl, the all-new Edible Mascots are set to become big memes with a reach that goes beyond college football games. Fans can soon purchase limited-edition Pop-Tarts Printed Fun Mascot Packs.
