Mall of America® brings local, viral sweets and snacks brand, The Golden Nuts, for visitors to enjoy

BLOOMINGTON, MN — May 18, 2026

Mall of America^® is set to welcome The Golden Nuts MN, a fast-growing Minnesota-based sweets and snack shop known for its viral Middle Eastern desserts and premium roasted nuts this summer. 

Founded in 2024, The Golden Nuts quickly built a devoted online following from their viral treats where customers would line up for freshly roasted nuts, imported coffee, and traditional Middle Eastern pastries and sweets. After generating strong social media buzz, particularly for its Dubai chocolate and freshly made knafeh, the cousins behind the brand are rapidly expanding and bringing their popular treats to Mall of America.

“The Golden Nuts brings an exciting new flavor experience to Mall of America,” said Alison Krueger, Leasing Manager at Mall of America. “From authentic Middle Eastern desserts and viral chocolate creations to a curated selection of premium snacks, it offers something new for guests to discover and even find a new favorite.”

The 700-square-foot Mall of America location will focus on sweets and desserts, featuring warm, freshly prepared knafeh, a crispy dessert, along with baklava, Turkish delights, strawberry cups, Dubai chocolate, imported coffee, and a wide variety of roasted nuts. Known for its selection of more than 50 premium snack options, The Golden Nuts specializes in high-quality nuts, dried fruits, imported coffee, and authentic Middle Eastern sweets, delivering bold flavors and fresh offerings.

The Golden Nuts MN will be located on Level 3, West. For more information on new and coming soon retail, dining, and attractions at Mall of America, visit https://www.mallofamerica.com/shopping/new.
