Shining Into the New Year: Meet the new 2026 Golden PEZ Presenter Girl

When we all caught a glimpse of the 

golden PEZ Presenter Girl for the New Year 2026

 in the display cases at the PEZ Visitor Center

 a few weeks ago, we were instantly on 

fire with excitement. 

Hopeful, NO, praying ) that these beauty 

would be released for all of us.

 

Back then, PEZ kept completely silent. 

No confirmation, no denial. Nothing!

 

Well… our prayers have been answered. 

The new PEZ Presenter Girl has arrived!

At least for some of us. As of today, 

the limited PEZ Presenter Girl is 

officially available in the European Online Shop.

(here) 

 

And no, for everyone wondering: 

there won’t be a second PEZ Presenter this year?

 Unlike last year, this New Year’s release will 

feature only one dispenser, the golden PEZ Presenter Girl. 

 

Even though PEZ International is labeling this 

golden Presenter Girl as a 2025 release, 

it’s pretty clear it should say 2026. 

 

And the fact that no maximum order limit was set 

raised quite a few eyebrows. 

But as in previous years, we can safely assume 

that only 2026 pieces for Europe and  

2026 pieces for the U.S. were produced.

 

The gorgeous blister card looks almost identical 

to last year’s, except this time the Girl is smiling

 right at us, and the year 2026 is proudly p

rinted on the card. 

The golden European PEZ candies tie the 

whole presentation together perfectly.

And speaking of the American market: 

you can relax for now.

 It’s not your turn yet, you’ll have to wait a little bit.

 

Even if the new golden Presenter Girl doesn’t 

top last year’s two New Year Pals 

one of which, the black one, was limited to 

only 200 pieces for both Europe and the U.S.

 this year’s Presenter Girl still lands firmly 

at the top of our favorites list.

 

PEZ has once again pulled a fantastic dispenser 

out of the hat, a perfect grand finale for this year.

 

Of course, we’ve also prepared the matching pictorials for you, 
one showcasing all New Year dispensers ever released, 
and another featuring every PEZ Presenter Girl to date. 

 

This is what makes collecting fun! 

And now we’re already looking forward to next year, 

after all, we’re sliding into PEZ’s 99th anniversary, 

the perfect reason to start celebrating early.

Happy Collecting! 

    

Meet the Star of the Sweet and Snacks Expo Show: The Blueberry PEZ Presenter Girl!

The Wait is Over – Sweets & Snacks Expo 2025

Has Officially Opened Its Doors!

 

We’ve all been counting down the days

with eager anticipation, and now the moment is finally here!

The gates to this year’s Sweets & Snacks Expo in 

Indiana have officially swung open, bringing a whirlwind 

of excitement from the world of PEZ.

Anyone who’s ever been involved in planning a trade 

show knows the immense amount of work,

time, and budget that goes into creating an event 

of this scale—and PEZ Candy Inc. 

has pulled out all the stops once again!

Months of meticulous preparation have 

gone into making sure everything is ready 

on time to showcase PEZ’s latest and greatest 

innovations—set against a dazzling 

spotlight and a uniquely themed display.

We’ve just received the first photos 

from the show floor, and let us tell you—

there are so many amazing new dispensers 

waiting to be discovered!

But before we dive into the highlights, 

we’d like to shine a light on a very special PEZ star!

 

Since 2015, starting with the iconic red PEZ Pal Boy, 

PEZ has created an exclusive, 

limited-edition dispenser just for the Expo,

 produced in a run of only 1,000 pieces each year. Initially

 handed out to booth visitors and business partners.

 

We all fondly remember last year, when for

 the first time ever, American collectors

 had the chance to purchase the  

blue Sweets & Snacks Presenter Girl online 

for $50 via a lottery-style email system. 

That effort didn’t just thrill collectors, it also raised an impressive
$12,500 for the Connecticut Humane Society. 

This year, PEZ has listened to fan requests 

and truly delivered: 

say hello to the brand-new 

Winking Blueberry PEZ Presenter Girl,

 a dream come true for collectors!

As the tenth official Sweets & Snacks Expo dispenser,

 this exclusive release comes with 

the Sweets & Snacks logo proudly 

printed on the blister card, 

and for the first time, the stem is stamped with

 “Sweets & Snacks 2025” 

Add in the matching Blueberry PEZ candies,

 and the result is a perfectly coordinated, 

color-matched masterpiece.

Now that the dispenser is out in the wild,

 the burning question is on everyone's mind: 

Will PEZ offer us another chance to get

 our hands on one through their online shop this year?

 

YES! 

We’re thrilled that PEZ has confirmed the  

Blueberry Presenter Girl will also be available for purchase, 

and even better, it’s for a good cause! 

What a fantastic way to combine collecting 

with doing something meaningful. 💙✨

 

As always, we've got you covered with a 

brand-new pictorial featuring all 

of the Sweets & Snacks Expo dispensers,

 along with an updated gallery of every 

PEZ Presenter Girl to date.

 

Stay tuned — we’re almost ready to share

 all the amazing photos from the show!
