Costco’s menu is getting a little bit sweeter.
The wholesale retailer is rolling out a new sundae flavor — the Caramel Churro Sundae — just in time for spring, according to their social media posts.
The new sundae is made out of Costco’s popular soft serve with caramel sauce and topped with crunchy churro bites. The base of the dessert can be vanilla, chocolate, or swirl, depending on the customer's preference.
The Caramel Churro Sundae is reportedly being sold at Costco stores for a limited time for $2.99.
PEOPLE has reached out to Costco for comment on the new dessert.

Some people who have already tried the Caramel Churro Sundae shared their take on it online. One person noted that this limited-time menu item was a bit sweeter than previous offerings.
“The mint one was better, this one is good too, but it is on the sweeter side, like when you get to the bottom it’s mega sweet,” one person commented on Costco New’s Instagram post.
Another person wrote, “I just had it yesterday. Soooo good 🔥.”
One Costco fan, Yutack Kang, shared on Instagram and TikTok his review of the new sundae flavor, noting that he gave the dessert the top marks, as the "brown sugar and cinnamon flavors in this thing are pretty spot on."
However, it did not impress other guests, including one who noted, “This was not good. I threw it away after two spoons. The churros they sprinkle on top are frozen bits. [Yuck]!” Another said, “I tried this yesterday. It was too sweet.”

Other Costco patrons shared that they were sad that the previous limited-time menu item, the Double Chocolate Mint Sundae, was no longer going to be available. The Double Chocolate Mint Sundae was introduced in February and came with a chocolate mint-flavored base and chocolate syrup.
“Personally, I liked the mint better,” one person said. Another added, “The mint was amazing. You all just need to give it time for it to build momentum.”
The new limited-time sundae flavor will be sold alongside Costco’s normal menu, which includes a chocolate sundae and a strawberry sundae, as well as the regular soft serve flavors in a cup.
