Pillsbury has released a new ready-to-bake shape cookie for the holiday season: The Grinch. This new cookie will join the lineup of Pillsbury’s seasonal cookie doughs, such as Elf, Christmas Tree, Snowman, and Reindeer. However, some fans are not happy about the new Grinch cookies. When food blogger Snackolator shared the Grinch-inspired cookies on Instagram, followers expressed negative opinions about the design.
The Grinch shape sugar cookies feature a green Grinch-shaped head with three small red hearts beside it to resemble his heart growing in size, referencing a line from the movie. Despite the festive design, people in the comments section had mixed reactions. Some compared the cookies to green poop, while others thought the Grinch head looked like pawprints or a tree. Overall, many felt that the cookies did not accurately represent the Grinch character.
Despite the negative feedback, others found the Grinch cookies to be a cute concept, even if they didn’t exactly resemble the character. Some commenters thought the design might have worked better for a Valentine’s Day theme, while others appreciated the effort to bring a beloved holiday character into cookie form. Despite the mixed reactions, these new Pillsbury Grinch cookies will soon be available in stores, according to the Pillsbury website.
The Pillsbury Shape Sugar Cookie Dough inspired by The Grinch aims to bring a touch of whimsical holiday baking to consumers. The product description on the Pillsbury website mentions that the cookies are inspired by Dr. Seuss and the whimsical world of Whoville. Additionally, the packaging of the Grinch cookies includes a bonus tree ornament activity, adding another festive element to the baking experience. Overall, the Grinch cookies are an addition to Pillsbury’s holiday offerings that aim to bring some joy and fun to seasonal baking.
