Girls Scouts saying goodbye to s'mores and Toast-Yay cookies, raising prices

If you’re a fan of Girl Scout Cookies, you might want to stock up this year, though you may have to pay more.

Girl Scouts of the USA announced on Tuesday that it will discontinue two flavors, s’mores and Toast-Yay, in 2026. Cookies sold by Nassau County Girl Scouts will cost $7, up from $5, the first price increase in five years, a representative for the local organization said. Girl Scouts of Suffolk County did not respond to a voicemail Tuesday.      

The news comes as GSUSA kicked off its national 2025 Girl Scout Cookie season.

Fans of s’mores and Toast-Yays will be able to purchase boxes, along with other flavors, until the season’s end around April, its website said.  The Girl Scouts national organization did not respond to a question about why those lines were being discontinued.  

"Girl Scout Cookie season is about so much more than selling the iconic cookies people know and love," GSUSA Chief Revenue Officer Wendy Lou said in a statement. "The funds girls earn throughout the season directly power girls’ journeys in leadership, entrepreneurship and community building. The sweet success of each sale is a testament to how much girls can change the world when they put their minds to it."

The 2025 cookie lineup includes Thin Mints, Samoas/Caramel deLites, Peanut Butter Patties/Tagalongs, Adventurefuls, Caramel Chocolate Chip, Peanut Butter Sandwich-Do-si-dos, Lemonades, Lemon-Ups, Toffee-tastic and Trefoils. 

Cassie Colgan, senior director, marketing and communications for Girl Scouts of Nassau County, said in an email that the price increase "reflects rising costs for ingredients, production, and the overall operation of the Girl Scout Cookie Program." 

Last year, Nassau Scouts sold 1.1 million packages of cookies, with the average scout selling about 130 packages, she said. 

Cookies can be purchased from participating Girl Scouts from cookie booths or by ordering online starting Feb. 21.

In 2023, the Scouts' cookie drive drew national attention after a shortage of Raspberry Rally cookies became grist for late night TV monologues, creating a resale market in which asking prices soared far above the original $5 retail price to as high as $110 on eBay.

The Rallies sold out on Long Island within a day, Newsday reported, quoting a Bay Shore/Brightwaters troop leader who said her young scouts were "very disappointed" because they'd hoped to sell the cookies to customers and keep some for themselves. The Rally will not be offered this year, Colgan said.
