The beloved drink from the books and films is the inspiration behind these enchanting treats, and they’ll be in stores for a limited time in March. Here, more details about the magical butterbeer Goldfish Grahams—plus my honest review of what they taste like. Accio yum!
Where to find butterbeer Goldfish Grahams
Goldfish and Warner Bros. Discovery are making snack time magical with butterbeer Goldfish Grahams. The new Grahams feature a rich butterscotch flavor combined with hints of creamy vanilla. They come in three different spell-binding shapes, including the standard goldfish, a barrel of butterbeer and an overflowing mug.
“The Harry Potter Butterbeer partnership is an exciting new chapter in our journey of creating unforgettable flavors and shapes for our Goldfish Grahams portfolio,” said Mike Fanelli, Senior Director at Goldfish. “Following recent collaborations with cultural icons like Elf and Dunkin, we knew snackers were craving more sweet treats from everyone’s favorite fish-shaped snack. We can’t wait for Harry Potter fans and all snackers to try these delicious Goldfish Butterbeer flavored grahams.”
The butterbeer Goldfish Grahams will be available in stores for a limited time in March and will cost $3.69.
Goldfish teases the new snack on Instagram
In a fun new post from February 3, the snack company made a fun graphic of a Goldfish wearing a red and gold scarf (Gryffindor colors) with the caption, “The snack that lived is coming soon… ⚡️ Stay tuned.”
Fans speculated about a Hogwarts house connection and were generally thrilled for more Goldfish flavors.
Other sweet treats from Goldfish
The launch of the butterbeer flavor follows Goldfish’s success with its grahams line, which includes Vanilla Cupcake, Strawberry Shortcake and the new Cinnamon Roll. There’s also a S’mores flavor.
“Our permanent additions to the Goldfish Grahams line come after a surge in popularity, thanks in part to successful limited-edition collaborations with iconic brands like Hello Kitty,” added Fanelli.
The Hello Kitty Strawberry Shortcake snacks, which returned in August, were only briefly available in stores and featured special Hello Kitty shapes.
What do Butterbeer Goldfish taste like? My honest review
As a longtime fan of Harry Potter, I was beyond excited to try these new Goldfish treats. Since butterbeer is such a unique and special flavor, I didn’t want the Goldfish to be too sweet or artificial.
I was immediately drawn to the midnight blue and gold packaging and couldn’t wait to dive in. On opening the package, I was hit with their delicious aroma, which has notes of cozy candles and freshly baked cookies.
In terms of taste, these are a golden snitch of a snack. The butterscotch quickly came through, and I loved that each graham was dusted with sugar. A slight saltiness also perfectly balanced the butterscotch and vanilla. I could easily make a bag of these quickly disappear, and I know they will become a pantry staple in my (Hogwarts) house.
