Taco Bell’s Baja Blast Pie is here: price, how to get it, and what it actually tastes like

Taco Bell has turned its cult-favorite soda into a headline dessert. The Mountain Dew Baja Blast pie—a teal, key-lime-style creation in a graham crust topped with whipped cream—debuted nationwide this week in very limited quantities. Early tasters describe a creamy, tropical-lime flavor profile aimed squarely at Friendsgiving tables and social-share moments.

Baja Blast pie: release, price, availability

• On sale now (limited time): The Taco Bell Baja Blast pie rolled out in U.S. restaurants starting Thursday, Nov. 6.

• Price: $19.99 for a whole pie; it isn’t sold by the slice.

• Where to buy: In-store only—front counter or drive-thru—at participating locations while supplies last.

• Quantity limits: Expect very limited inventory and typically one pie per order.

• Handling: Sold frozen; check the package for thaw/serving instructions before slicing.

What is the Mountain Dew Baja Blast pie?

Think “tropical lime meets key lime.” The filling leans creamy and sweet-tart rather than sharply citrus, with the signature Baja Blast vibe dialed into a dessert format. The texture trends silkier than a baked custard pie, closer to a chilled, no-bake cream pie. Visually, the pie is unmistakable—bright teal with a generous whipped-cream spiral—engineered to be a conversation piece at gatherings.

Flavor notes at a glance

• Topping: Whipped cream

• Vibe: Sweet-tart, tropical, meme-worthy presentation

Limited extras: the Baja Blast Pie Chiller

Select Live Más Café locations in Southern California and Texas are also offering a Baja Blast Pie Chiller—a frozen, milkshake-like drink that blends pieces of the pie with a vanilla ice-cream base, finished with whipped cream and churro crunch. It’s a small-batch, limited-time add-on designed as a portable spin on the dessert.

How to score one before they’re gone

1. Go early in the day. Stores receive scarce quantities, and once they’re out, that’s it.

2. Use the drive-thru or counter. Delivery apps are excluded from this launch.

3. Plan for transport. The pie is frozen; keep it cold until you’re ready to thaw and serve.

4. Check local participation. Availability, hours, and pricing can vary by location.

Serving tips for your Friendsgiving “statement dessert”

• Thaw to your texture. For the cleanest slices, serve slightly chilled or partially thawed rather than fully room-temp.

• Add acidity. A quick grate of lime zest or a squeeze of fresh lime over slices brightens the sweetness.

• Cut with warm knife. Dip and wipe between cuts for photo-ready wedges.

• Pairings: Sparkling water with lime, vanilla ice cream, or salted-pretzel crumbs for contrast.

Why Taco Bell made a pie out of a soda

The Taco Bell pie taps into two trends: seasonal “Friendsgiving” shareables and brand-playful, camera-ready foods. By translating a beloved beverage into dessert form—and releasing it as a scarce, whole-pie purchase—the chain turns a novelty into an event. That scarcity, plus the unmistakable color, drives social buzz while giving fans a collectible moment tied to the Baja Blast “mythos.”
