This popular Girl Scout cookie is out. What Happened? Here’s when selling season starts
When Girl Scout cookie season begins in January, one less option will be available.
The Girl Scouts of USA announced last week that the Raspberry Rally cookies has been discontinued starting in the 2024 selling season, according to CNN. The Raspberry Rally was introduced last year to facilitate the Girl Scouts e-commerce sales and entrepreneurial skills, and was sold exclusively online.
Buyers went cookie crazy for the new treat, with some Girl Scout chapters selling out within days. Resellers jumped in the entrepreneurial fray, raising the price of one package from $5 to $30.
A sister cookie to Thin Mints, the Raspberry Rally had a similar chocolate coating but with a berry-flavored interior.
“Last year, we were excited to introduce Raspberry Rally cookies as part of our pilot online sales strategy, however, to mitigate potential supply challenges and to simplify the program for our girls and volunteers, Raspberry Rally cookies will not be available for the 2024 Girl Scout Cookie season,” the Girl Scouts of USA said in a statement.
When is Girl Scouts cookie season?
Girl Scouts Cookie season in Fort Worth runs from Jan. 12 to March 3, 2024.
Fort Worth falls under the Girl Scouts of Texas Oklahoma Plains council, which covers everything west of Cowtown and into the Texas Panhandle.
How much is a box of Girl Scout cookies?
Each of the Girl Scouts of America’s 111 council’s are allowed to set the price for cookies.
The Girl Scouts of Texas Oklahoma Plains, which covers Fort Worth, is increasing its price per package by $1 heading into the 2024 cookie selling season. Regular boxes of cookies will be $6 a package and gluten-free cookies will be $7.
The price change is due to an increase in transportation costs, commodities and delivery changes from the baker, the council said in a statement.

Those who purchase Girl Scout cookies in Fort Worth have nine options to choose from:

What’s the most popular Girl Scouts cookie in Texas?
Sorry Thin Mints, Texans prefer Caramel deLites as their Girl Scouts cookie of choice
A report from My San Antonio ranked Caramel deLites as the top cookie in the Lone Star State. Thin Mints came in at number two, followed by Peanut Butter Patties and Adventurefuls.
Raspberry Rally ranked last on the list, but Texans won’t have to worry about the cookie in 2024.
