What’s New in 2026: Flavor Lineup

While I was very saddened for the departure of my beloved French Toast Yays, this year does bring an exciting addition to take its place: Exploremores, a new cookie inspired by rocky road ice cream. These sandwich cookies feature rich chocolate wafers filled with marshmallow and toasted almond-flavored crème, offering a fun twist on a classic treat.

Alongside Exploremores, many fan-favorite cookies are returning, including:

  • Thin Mints

  • Lemonades
  • Caramel deLites (aka Samoas)

  • Peanut Butter Patties

  • Adventurefuls

  • Carmel Chocolate Chip (these are Gluten-free)

  • Peanut Butter Sandwich

  • Trefoils (Shortbread)

🍪 How to Buy Cookies in Lubbock

There are a few great ways to score boxes this season:

1. Local Booth Sales

One of the best parts of cookie season is seeing Girl Scouts at booths around town often outside grocery stores, community centers, and local shops. These pop-up spots usually run on weekends and select weekdays throughout January through March. Check the list here.

2. Digital & Online Orders

Many troops participate in online selling platforms, letting you order cookies through a link provided by a local Girl Scout or directly online. This is a convenient option if you don’t see a booth near you, or you REALLY want to stock up.

Why Girl Scout Cookies Matter

Buying Girl Scout cookies isn’t just a sweet seasonal tradition, it’s also a boost to local troops. Proceeds from cookie sales help support year-round activities, community projects, leadership experiences, and programs for girls in Lubbock and across the council. In addition, selling cookies gives Girl Scouts real-world skills in goal setting, money management, marketing, and entrepreneurship.
