CAMDEN, N.J., April 21, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Pepperidge Farm is partnering with world-renowned interior designer Nate Berkus to introduce the Pepperidge Farm x Nate Berkus Chessmen® Cookie Board, a chessboard-inspired piece designed to turn simple rituals into special occasions, perfect for serving cookies, entertaining, and effortless everyday display.
Inspired by the brand’s newest Chessmen® flavors, Salted Caramel, Cinnamon Sugar and Brown Butter Pecan, the collaboration brings a design-forward spin to the beloved butter cookie.
Created in partnership with Berkus, the limited-edition board transforms the rich heritage of Chessmen® cookies, merging a classic chessboard pattern with a serving board, resulting in a piece that feels both refined and approachable. Guided by the warm, inviting tones of the new flavor lineup, the board features caramel hues, cinnamon warmth and rich brown butter-inspired details. The piece also features a storage compartment fit for a Chessmen bag in the base, making it display-worthy long after guests leave.
“Pepperidge Farm cookies have always been synonymous with timeless taste and craftsmanship,” said Ama Auwarter, Vice President Bakery and Cookies at Campbell’s Snacks. “With the launch of our newest Chessmen flavors we put a fresh spin on a true classic. Partnering with Nate Berkus allowed us to take that evolution a step further, transforming an iconic cookie into an elevated, style-driven piece that brings our heritage to life in a completely new way.”
“Great design starts with something timeless,” said Nate Berkus. “Chess patterns have endured for generations because they’re classic — much like Pepperidge Farm Chessmen® cookies. I loved the idea of building on something so familiar and giving it a new point of view. The Pepperidge Farm x Nate Berkus Chessmen® Cookie Board is about honoring that heritage while reimagining it in a way that feels modern, elevated and unexpected. And yes, you can absolutely eat cookies off it.”
Blending the Pepperidge Farm legacy of craftsmanship with modern design, drawing on Berkus’s love of the timeless chess pattern and a functional, thoughtful approach.
