Costco's New Mint Sundae: A Sweet Treat for Chocolate Lovers
The winter months are drawing to a close, and Costco is ready to surprise its customers with a delightful new addition to its food court menu. The latest dessert is a chocolate mint lover's dream, and it's causing quite a stir among shoppers.
A Chocolate-Mint Paradise
The Double Chocolate Mint Sundae is a masterpiece of sweetness. It starts with a generous layer of chocolate sauce at the bottom of a large cup, followed by a generous scoop of mint ice cream. The ice cream is then topped with another generous drizzle of chocolate sauce and finished with crunchy chocolate cookie crumbs. This decadent dessert is priced at just $2.99, which is a testament to Costco's commitment to keeping its food court prices incredibly low.
Portion Size and Sharing
One of the most intriguing aspects of this sundae is its portion size. With a total of 790 calories in one serving, it's no wonder some people are suggesting that it's meant to be shared. One Instagram user humorously suggested splitting it with themselves, indicating that it's a substantial treat. However, others have a different approach. They propose dividing the sundae into three portions, resulting in a more manageable 266 calories per person.
Costco's Dessert Lineup
While Costco's food court is renowned for its iconic hot dogs and pizzas, its dessert offerings are equally impressive. The new mint sundae has replaced the previous favorite, the Caramel Brownie Sundae, and now sits alongside the classic vanilla ice cream as the only ice cream option. Additionally, those who prefer non-mint flavors can still enjoy the standard ice cream sundae, which comes with a base of vanilla ice cream topped with chocolate or strawberry sauce, priced at $2.49.
A Taste of International Delights
Costco's food court has a global reach, and this is evident in the international desserts it offers. In early January 2026, Costco's food court in Mexico introduced a Lotus Biscoff sundae, featuring vanilla ice cream topped with Biscoff sauce and cookies. Despite the limited availability, there's a possibility that this sundae could make its way to the U.S. with the dedication of Costco fans.
A Sweet Escape
As the winter fades, Costco's new mint sundae provides a sweet escape from the cold. With its generous portions and affordable price, it's a treat that many shoppers are eager to try. Whether shared among friends or enjoyed solo, this sundae is a testament to Costco's ability to deliver delicious and surprising food court experiences.
