This might be a bit of an exaggeration but someone told me that everyone’s favourite line of all time is: “First you twist it, then you lick it, then you dunk it”…and I agree, well at least for me. That line tranports me back to my childhood and has me feeling all sorts of mooshy mooshy. So when our good friends at OREO dared us to take up the OREO Dunk Challenge, I jumped up and down around the office like a kid in a candy store. So what is this “OREO Dunk Challenge”? you may ask. You are lucky I like you a lot so I will tell you what it is, it’s a globally integrated marketing campaign (possibly one of my favourite camapigns right now). The goal of the OREO Dunk Challenge is to inspire fans around the world to dunk OREO biscuits in milk and re-connect with their inner child.
The OREO Dunk Challenge will come to life through a variety of consumer touch points and collaborations designed to provide dunking inspiration. These collaborations showcase new and innovative ways to dunk an OREO biscuit in milk, starting with celebrity dunks by International Recording Artist Christina Aguilera and professional Brazilian football star Neymar da Silva Santos Junior. Each celebrity will appear in-store and in TV spots that put spectacular spins on the OREO biscuit dunk ritual.
Locally, to celebrate the OREO Dunk Challenge, our good friends at OREO are giving one lucky South African a chance to win a VIP Dunking Experience for two worth R150 000, including a chance to meet and dunk with either Christina Aguilera in Los Angeles or Neymar da Silva Santos Junior in Barcelona.

The promotion is open from 16th of February 2017 to the 31st May 2017, terms and conditions apply* and remember to keep your till slip to validate their entry.
Building on the global hype, Oreo South Africa will ask local fans to ‘show them their #OreoDunk’, rewarding imaginative dunkers with a chance to win a R30 000 cash prize and the title of South Africa’s first Oreo Master Dunker.
