To celebrate America’s 250th birthday, Superpretzel is transforming the iconic stadium snack food into a star-shaped presentation for summer festivities, joining many other brands launching special edition products this year.
The bagels are made in the shape of “America’s most iconic symbol” and are “patriotic from freezer to fork,” Superpretzel said in a news release.
“America’s 250th anniversary is a celebration people will remember for years to come, and we wanted to create something simple, fun and shareable that families can enjoy together,” said Lynwood Mallard, marketing manager for J&J Snack Foods.

The company stated that the meals were made in a place steeped in history.
“Each star-shaped pretzel is produced in the Philadelphia region where the nation’s founding began. This regional heritage makes the Star Pretzel more than a seasonal innovation. It’s a history-baked snack straight from the heart of ‘Pretzel Country.'”

In addition to being sold at sports and amusement parks, movie theaters, and other entertainment venues, Superpretzels can also be found in the freezer aisle of most grocery and mass retail stores nationwide.
The company said the snacks can be “freezer-to-oven ready in minutes” and recommends preparing them in an air fryer for extra crunch.
The star crackers will be released on Memorial Day and will be available through September.
