The sweet-toothed shopper shared a picture of the cookies with fellow snack lovers in the Food Fans UK official Facebook group.

The post read: "NEW Aero Peppermint Cookies spotted in CO-OP!!" along with a picture of the sweet treat.

Fellow food fans rushed to the comments to share their thoughts and the post quickly racked up over 1k likes and 800 comments.

The cookies come in a pack of four but the original post did not say how much they are.

We had a look on the website, but the cookies were not listed online, so it could be that you have to go to a physical store if you want to get your hands on them.

You can find your nearest store by putting your postcode into the store locator tool on the retailers website.

It is not just new flavour cookies that are getting chocolate fans in a frenzy.

B&M shoppers have been rushing to stores to get their hands on a Mars chocolate bar that has had fans drooling.

Honeycomb Salted Caramel Mars Bars are back in stores and fans can't get enough of them.

The exciting flavour comes from Australia and was first launched in Australia in 2022 and the UK in 2023. 

Meanwhile, Cadbury has left fans disappointed after scrapping its Dairy Milk orange bars.

The 180g snack was launched in 2021 following a surge in popularity for chocolate orange products.

But last month the manufacturer announced the bar had been withdrawn from shops to make way for more flavours.

How can I save money at Co-op?

At the start of 2024 Co-op made a major change to its rewards scheme and shoppers were left "gobsmacked".

The supermarket ditched its points scheme in favour of offering members exclusive prices across food, insurance, funeral care and legal services.

It is not all bad news however as customers who already have money in the scheme will have until the end of 2024 to spend it.

The retailer said it plans to double the amount of member price lines available and will include brands for the first time.

Its member prices are different to other supermarket loyalty schemes because it has a fixed list of products to which member-only prices are applied.

Unlike at other supermarkets like Tesco, the member prices do not change every promotional period or flex on availability.

Co-op membership costs £1 and customers get personalised offers weekly depending on what they buy.

The retailer said its analysis showed that member prices were 90% better value than its previous rewards system, which saw customers earn 2p for every £1 spent on own-brand products.
