9 Louisiana Cajun Inspired Girl Scout Cookie Flavors That Need to Be Made

Lafayette, Louisiana (KPEL-FM) - When it comes to the start of a new year, we all look forward to a lot of different things.

We look forward to the promise of what a new year holds, good luck, hopefully good fortune and health, and obviously Girl Scout Cookie Season.

Dreams of the promise of Thin Mints, Samoas, Tagalongs, Do-si-dos, and more begin to fill our every thought as per-orders begin to pile in every January.

This got us thinking...what if Louisiana came up with our very own Cajun Girl Scout Cookie flavors?

We've got a lot of delicious desserts in Acadiana, and many of them could make some scrumptious, and really fun, Girl Scout Cookies.

Louisiana Cajun Girl Scout Cookies

From King Cake to Steen's Syrup, Bananas Foster to Bread Pudding, so many of our Cajun and Creole desserts would translate fantastically into some amazing Girl Scout Cookies.

Don't believe us? Check out these Louisiana Cajun Girl Scout concoctions we've dreamed up!

We will begin taking orders, January 1, 2026.

Not really...but maybe hopefully, and also never gonna happen.
