Marketing details

Our Carnival cookie lives up to its name, for sure. No other cookie generates a party mood, complete with smiles, faster. For almost 30 years our Carnival cookie has been the center of attention at birthday parties for children of all ages, stealing attention away even from the cake.

And don't think for a moment this is some ordinary party cookie. Around here at Otis Spunkmeyer headquarters, this cookie is known as "soul food for the inner child." It's every bit as delicious as our classic Chocolate Chip (and even includes our fantastically rich Barry Callebaut semi-sweet chocolate chips), only with a burst of rainbow color.

As Art Armani, one of our internet marketing experts, puts it, "In two seconds, this cookie turns me into a 5 year old. I can't even eat it like a normal cookie. I have to nibble around and bite off each color of candy-coated chocolate, one piece at a time. I can't explain it and I'm questioning why I've just admitted this in public!"

Properly baked cookies should have a golden brown color, and should be firm on the outside and have a soft moist interior.
