There’s A Catch If You Purchase Costco's Discontinued Churros

While Costco’s churros disappeared from their food court menu at the beginning of 2024, causing quite a stir, you can still buy them frozen from certain stores — including Costco.
However, there’s a catch. The signature sweet, made by the brand Tio Pepe’s, is only available for purchase in bulk — which actually makes them more cost-effective.
As per an Instagram post by Costcofans from January 2024, after churros disappeared from food courts, Costco stocked boxes of them in the frozen section at select warehouses
It’s unclear if the churros are still sold at the wholesaler today, but at the time, you could buy 60 dual-flavor twisted churros for between about $34 and $38.
Alternatively, you can order them online. Food service suppliers such as Walmart, Amazon, or Smart and Final carry the sweet treats in varying quantities at a range of prices.
While shopping, it’s important to note that Tio Pepe’s is owned by parent company J&J Snack Foods, which has rebranded some of its products under the ¡Hola! Churros name.
