Costco Just Added a Cult-Favorite Ice Cream Brand to Its Freezer Section
Costco's freezer section is known for oversized tubs and family packs, but shoppers are buzzing about something a little more indulgent popping up between the usual staples. It's not your standard bulk vanilla or chocolate situation. This one feels more like a specialty-scoop-shop treat that somehow landed next to the frozen pizzas.
Spotted in Southern U.S. warehouses, Costco has started carrying Jeni's Key Lime Pie Frozen Dessert Sandwiches in an eight-pack for $14.49. For fans of the premium brand, that price alone is enough to spark excitement.
A Cult Favorite Finds Its Way to Costco
Jeni's Splendid Ice Creams has built a reputation as a top-tier, luxury ice cream brand with a loyal following. Known for its ultra-smooth texture and creative flavors like Gooey Butter Cake and Brambleberry Crisp, Jeni's typically sells pints at $8–$12. It's often considered a treat rather than an everyday freezer staple.
Instead of pints, Costco is offering Key Lime Pie Frozen Dessert Sandwiches, each featuring tangy key lime filling layered between graham cookies. The sandwiches are inspired by Jeni's seasonal Spring 2026 lineup, which recently introduced Key Lime Pie as a limited-time flavor.
Each 8-pack includes individually portioned 3.5-ounce sandwiches. The graham cookie is made with a blend of wheat and graham flour, molasses and honey, while the creamy center includes nonfat milk, cream, cane sugar and key lime puree for that bright citrus kick. The result is sweet, tart and nostalgic all at once.
Some shoppers have pointed out that the packaging calls them "frozen dessert sandwiches" rather than "ice cream sandwiches," sparking a bit of debate online. Still, many fans say the flavor and texture are what matter most, and they're eager to give them a try.

What to Know Before You Grab a Box
If you're considering tossing this new ice cream find into your Costco cart, there are a few details to keep in mind. The sandwiches contain milk and wheat and are made in a facility that also processes eggs, peanuts, tree nuts and soy, so allergy-conscious shoppers will want to check the label carefully.
At $14.49 for eight sandwiches, the price breaks down to under $2 per serving. Compared to buying individual pints of Jeni's, it feels like a more accessible way to enjoy the brand's signature style.
For longtime fans, seeing Jeni's in Costco's freezer section signals just how mainstream the once boutique scoop shop has become. For curious shoppers who have hesitated at the premium pint price, this could be the perfect entry point.
