The beloved mini muffin brand, Little Bites, has launched two exciting new flavors: Vanilla Muffins and Tropical Pineapple Muffins. This announcement came from Bimbo Bakery USA, the parent company of Entenmann’s Little Bites, which released a press statement on March 31, highlighting these delightful additions to their product line.
Among these offerings, the Tropical Pineapple Muffins are particularly noteworthy, as they are available for a limited time only. Customers can choose from 5-count and 10-count packs of the Vanilla Muffins, while the Tropical Pineapple Muffins are sold exclusively in a 5-count pack, offering a total of 20 mini muffins. Priced around $5.49 at major retailers across the United States, prices may fluctuate depending on the store.

Having been a staple in the bakery sector for a century, Entenmann’s launched Little Bites in 1999, quickly gaining popularity among muffin enthusiasts. The brand is well-known for its unique flavors, often introducing limited-time offerings and collaborations.
The new flavor pair, Vanilla and Tropical Pineapple, aims to excite taste buds as part of an adventurous snacking experience. Rielly Whims, the brand manager for Entenmann’s sub-label, elaborated on the launch, stating:
“Little Bites is committed to transforming snack time into a flavor-packed adventure that both kids and parents approve. Our new Vanilla Muffins capture the rich, creamy flavor of a classic favorite, while Tropical Pineapple Muffins, available for a limited time, add a playful tropical sensation. We can’t wait for families to join us on this flavor journey!”
The hints of pineapple flavor emerged earlier in February, thanks to popular food influencer @markie_devo, who shared an early glimpse of the new products on February 15. These muffins are now officially available, and the announcement was met with enthusiasm:
“Turn snack time into an invigorating sensory paradise with the timeless sweetness of vanilla and the refreshing tropical essence of real pineapple. Sit back, snack, and relax with the soft, fluffy, and mess-free snacking experience that Little Bites ® fans crave.”
Both muffin varieties boast natural vanilla flavor and real pineapple, and are crafted without high fructose corn syrup or artificial colors. A 20-muffin pack retails for $5.49, while select retailers like Walmart offer them at a competitive price of $3.68.
Exciting Developments from Little Bites
Little Bites continues to innovate, wowing fans with recent product launches. In April of last year, a special edition flavor inspired by Girl Scouts’ Toast-Yay was introduced. The brand then celebrated its 25th anniversary in September 2024 with the release of Biggie Muffins, which are more than twice the size of their traditional bite-sized counterparts.
To wrap up the year 2024, Little Bites unveiled a limited winter edition of Hot Cocoa with Marshmallow Muffins. In addition to the new vanilla and pineapple flavors, the brand also caters to health-conscious consumers with low-sugar chocolate and apple cinnamon muffins.
