Costco has rolled out its 2026 Fourth of July dessert lineup, and the warehouse chain is leaning hard into red-white-and-blue colors, fruit-forward flavors, and big bakery cakes built to feed a crowd.
Shoppers and food reviewers on TikTok, Instagram, and lifestyle outlets have already tracked down what’s hitting shelves right now. Here’s the full rundown, organized by category, with prices and what reviewers are saying.
Patriotic and Holiday-Themed Treats
These are the grab-and-go items built around classic red, white, and blue presentation — ideal for parties where you don’t want to bake anything yourself.
- Red, White, and Blue Cookies ($9.99) — A 24-pack of soft-baked cookies loaded with white chocolate chunks and topped with red and blue sprinkles. Reviewers call them a party-spread favorite specifically because they require zero oven time.
- Fourth of July Cake Pops ($9.99) — A 12-count box of confetti vanilla cake pops dipped in red and blue frosting. Social media reviewers note they’re made without artificial dyes and taste better than the average cake pop.
- Atelier Cécile Strawberry Vanilla Dessert Cups — Individual layered vanilla-and-strawberry cups, styled around America’s 250th birthday celebrations and easy to serve without plating.
- Johnny Pops Patriotic Popsicles ($9.99, on sale through July 3) — An 18-pack of layered cherry, raspberry, and lemon pops made with simple ingredients.
New and Oversized Summer Bakery Cakes
For bigger gatherings, Costco’s bakery section has several new sheet-style cakes and pies sized for backyard barbecues.
- Waffle Cone Bar Cake ($18.99) — Sponge cake layered with cream filling, chocolate and caramel drizzle, and topped with mini chocolate-filled waffle cones, designed to mimic an ice cream sundae without the melting.
- Strawberry Streusel Cheesecake ($18.99–$25.99) — A 4.5-pound cheesecake with a graham cracker crust, thick filling, fresh strawberry topping, and streusel crumble. It yields roughly 12 to 14 large slices.
- Peaches and Cream Bar Cake ($18.99) — Vanilla sponge layered with peach filling and whipped cream, finished with white chocolate curls.
- Strawberry Cream Pie ($18.99) — A nearly 4-pound refrigerated pie with a graham cracker crust, strawberry preserve layer, strawberry cream filling, and whipped topping.
Frozen and Limited-Run Finds
A handful of seasonal frozen items round out the lineup, with availability varying by location.
- Thrifty Sherbet 2-Pack ($10.50) — Two half-gallon tubs in cherry, lemon, and blue raspberry, a nostalgic throwback option.
- Afters Ice Cream Cookie Sandwiches — A collaboration box pairing sugar cookies with “milk n’ cookies” flavored ice cream, spotted at select locations.
- Mini Angel Food Cakes ($6.99) — A 12-pack of mini cakes that reviewers suggest pairing with fresh Costco strawberries and blueberries for an instant DIY red-white-and-blue shortcake.

Availability and pricing can vary by warehouse and region, so it’s worth checking your local Costco app or asking a bakery associate before planning around a specific item, especially the sale-priced popsicles that run only through July 3.
