Chips break the second you dip. You scoop, it snaps, and half of it stays swimming in the queso instead of making it to your mouth. Anyone who has hosted a game night knows the frustration of a chip that can’t handle a real dip.

Pringles decided that problem needed solving. Starting this September, the brand rolls out a crisp it reshaped specifically for scooping and holding dip, instead of letting it fall apart. Whether you’re a light dipper or someone who piles on the queso, the new shape is built to handle it.

Snack fans have wanted this kind of update for years, and Pringles is rolling it out alongside a new addition to its bowtie-shaped Mingles lineup.

2 New Pringles Snacks Launch Together

This September, Pringles Dippers and a new Mingles flavor arrive together, the latest move in a broader snack trend of brands reshaping familiar formats instead of just launching new flavors. The reshaped Dippers come in three flavors, and both products become available at retailers nationwide the same month.

You can spot the new cans by their wavier, thicker shape, or follow Pringles on social media to catch the rollout as it happens.

What Makes Dippers Different

The new crisp is thicker and sturdier than the original Pringles shape, with a curvy, scoopy design that scoops instead of snaps. That’s a direct answer to the age-old chip complaint: something breaking off in the dip halfway through the bite.

Pringles Dippers come in three flavors:

  • Original, the classic Pringles flavor in the new sturdier shape.
  • French Onion, a savory take that pairs caramelized onion notes with a tangy, creamy finish.
  • Bacon Cheddar, a combination of bold cheddar cheese and smoky bacon flavor.

Each one works as a standalone snack straight from the can or as a dedicated dipping vehicle, depending on how you like to eat them.

A New Twist on Mingles

Pringles Mingles, the brand’s bowtie-shaped puffed snack, is getting a Sweet & Salty flavor. The light, airy puffs balance a touch of buttery sweetness against a salty finish. If you’ve stuck to the classic savory Mingles flavors before, this is your excuse to try something new.

If your chip bowl has been letting you down, September is when that changes. Grab a can of Dippers next time you’re loading up on dip, or try the new Mingles flavor if you’re in the mood for something a little sweeter. Either way, your next snack spread just got an upgrade.
