Cream puffs in winter? Chocolate cream puffs?

Shut your pie hole.

It's true. The Wisconsin State Fair will sell Cocoa Cream Puffs, a specialty version with silky smooth cocoa-infused cream between the baked puff from the fair's cream puff makers.

The new flavor will be available for curbside pickup in three-packs and six-packs from Dec. 11 through 13. Original Cream Puffs will not be available.

The cream puffs are part of WonderFair, which includes gifts ranging from ticket bundles to fair-branded clothing.

The fair will also sell more sweet treats like Blue Ribbon Brownies made holiday-ish with a peppermint infusion and sprinkles and Chocolate Chip Cookies. All will be available in threepacks for curbside pickup Dec. 11 through 13.

Pre-orders for all items are strongly encouraged, and fairgoers who order by Dec. 6 will receive a discount on all items. Pre-orders can be placed at originalcr­eampuffs.com.
