The holidays are right around the corner, and no one sweetens up the season like Costco. Shopping for holiday stuff at Costco is basically tradition at this point—what holiday is complete without a 4-pound pumpkin pie or a giant bottle of eggnog liqueur?
Now, Costco is turning up the heat this winter with a festive assortment of melty and decadent hot cocoa bombs. The best part? They’re stuffed with fluffy marshmallows!
Put the Cheer in Your Holiday
Few things compare to curling up TV-side with your favorite Christmas flick and a steaming mug of hot cocoa. This year, though, you can skip the standard cocoa and go straight for the good stuff with hot cocoa bombs in four jolly flavors: Milk Chocolate, S’Mores, Strawberry and Salted Caramel. Every hot cocoa bomb is loaded with marshmallows that explode out of the shell as soon as you melt it down with the milk of your choice. Just look how satisfying it is!
These hot cocoa bombs, which first became a big deal on TikTok, were spotted at Costco by IG user @CostcoHotFinds. Every bomb comes in a different but festive foil wrapping, making them ideal stocking stuffers for the hot cocoa lovers in your life.
Are They in Stock at Costco?
Costco is selling a 16-count box of hot cocoa bombs for only $19, and a steal like this won’t be passed up by early holiday shoppers. Like all seasonal goodies, these bombs likely won’t be around for long—meaning you should snag a box as soon as you see it.
And while you’re giving that membership card a workout, you might as well pick up Costco’s best-selling item!
