I received a complimentary set of Goldfish My Way customized party favors for my youngest son’s 8th birthday last month and have an ongoing compensated relationship with Goldfish Smiles, but all thoughts and opinions are my own.
Note: it appears that Pepperidge Farm has discontinued making Goldfish My Way packaging. I don’t know when they discontinued this product, and I apologize if you were trying to place an order and ended up here. Luckily, I’ve made FUN snack bag toppers that you can buy today and print off at home. Here’s a sneak peek of what you can get:

If I dare take my youngest son to the grocery store, he almost always begs me to buy him a box of Goldfish crackers. Whether it’s an afternoon snack or a lunch box treat, he’s always ready to eat a handful of Goldfish.
I was so excited to create a special treat for AJ’s birthday last month, and AJ was thrilled to receive it. Not only did he love getting his own supply of Goldfish in fun colors (I knew he would love blue and green Goldfish) but he was so excited to see his pictures and name on a package of one of his favorite foods ever.
When I asked him what he liked best about his special Goldfish packages, he said, “I LOVE the colors! Blue and green are so cool. And they were delicious.”
As soon as he said delicious, his 10-year-old sister piped in and reaffirmed that the blue and green Goldfish were especially yummy.
Of course, I’m also a fan of snacking on Goldfish (although the standard orange crackers are just fine with me) but I was particularly impressed with the quality of the customization. The pictures that I uploaded on the website printed beautifully on the packages, and the notes that I created for AJ made me smile every time I put one in his lunch box. I also love how easy it was to create AJ’s custom Goldfish My Way boxes.
How to create your customized Goldfish My Way package
- Choose your occasion
- Enter your message
- Upload a picture
- Choose your Goldfish colors
- Pick a size and quantity
- Add to cart and wait for your Goldfish to arrive!
Available customizable sizes:
- Customized gift box
- Customized party favor
- Themed party cups
Since AJ’s birthday was in May, he received his party favor boxes in time to enjoy them with his school lunches for the last few weeks of school. But they would be perfect as party favors (and the other parents wouldn’t hate me for sending their kids home with bags full of candy and junk toys). I think AJ liked them so much that he would have had a hard time giving them away…
With 7 people at our house, we’ve got plenty of occasions to enjoy Goldfish My Way…coming up this year, we’ve got a teen getting her driver’s license, birthdays, a high school graduation, camp, scouts, piano recitals, school plays and a 19th anniversary (among many other special occasions, I’m sure!).

Miranda says
Just bought my bag this year 2017 and there still advertising it
Lolli says
Pualani, I just got the snack bag toppers up on my site. Here’s the link: https://foodfunfamily.com/party-snack-bag-toppers/
Lolli says
I have an option – it’s not the official Goldfish packaging, since I’m just an ordinary person and can only do so much. ;) I have been swamped with the summer and haven’t gotten them ready to sell quite yet, but I will work on getting them ready for you shortly.
Pualani says
Hi just discovered PF is no longer making these. Am I reading right that you are? If so, would you message me please?
Lolli says
I do too! We really enjoyed them. I wish that Pepperidge Farm would stop advertising them if they’re not going to sell them anymore!
Lisa says
I just bought a bag with the website on it. Not working. Its a shame. I think it is a neat idea.
Lolli says
I don’t work with Pepperidge Farms, so I have no idea why they stopped making the Goldfish My Way packages. It’s been offline for a quite a while, as far as I can tell. So strange that they’re still advertising it!
Rochelle Fugette says
I just read on a bag “Goldfish my Way” that the promotion is until 9-4-16., if that’s the case , then why did you stop this promotion?
grisg1775 says
this is cool I wonder if I get to pick the colores
Lolli says
That is really a shame! I’ve gone to goldfishmyway.com several times, too and it appears that they have shut it down completely, with no warning.
Jessi says
I have 2 packages of goldfish that my daughter recently bought at a Walgreens that advertises goldfish my way. It says to order at goldfishmyway.com, but if you try to go to the site, it says it’s not a legitimate site.
Lolli says
Where did you see the customized Goldfish packaging advertised? I have people asking me about it weekly, and I’d love to point them in the right direction! :)
Lisa Jones says
I just purchased a Pack of Goldfish last week. Customized Goldfish is still being advertised.
Lolli says
Diana, I have something designed and should have it available in a couple of days. I will send you a quick message when it’s ready!
Diana says
Hi Lolli,
Have you found an alternative to the customized goldfish packaging? I would really love these as favors for my daughters first birthday.
Lolli says
That’s what it appears like. I don’t have any particular contact with Pepperidge Farms, but it seems that they took everything related to the Goldfish My Way a few months ago, at least. I’m working on providing an alternative for people to print off at home so feel free to check back in a week or so! :)
Belinda Andrews says
Wow..I have been trying for the last three weeks to find the website from off the bag of goldfish I just purchased a month ago. SO Lolli you are tell me Pepperidge Farms stopped making the customized Goldfish packages?
Lolli says
Yes, I’m sorry about that! I have a note at the top of the post – Pepperidge Farm stopped offering the Goldfish My Way packaging, but I am in the process of making an alternative! Check back soon. :)
Sheri Bondy says
I would luv to order but went to the web site on the goldfish package and there is no place to order
Goldfishmyway.com
Lolli says
As far as I understand, Pepperidge Farms stopped making the customized Goldfish packages. I’m not sure when they stopped, but I updated my post a while ago when I found out that people weren’t able to find Goldfish My Way on their site. I wish I had better information for you. Sorry!
kaitlin says
I’m trying to figure out if i can order some customized goldfish bags for my niece. I’m not sure how to do it through this site. could you help me out please
Lolli says
They are SO easy to make! And a really fun surprise for the recipient.
Lolli says
Aren’t they, though? :) Definitely a popular one at our house!
Jennifer Sikora says
Those are THE coolest things I have ever seen! I love them :)
OurFamilyWorld says
I saw this in a magazine and thought it would be fun to do. Looks like yours came out great!
Joelen says
Oooh – what a great item to include for children’s parties! My son would love these!
Marysa says
These are so cute! This would be great for so many occasions, even as party favors.
Pam says
That is so cute! I can see how much your son loved having his own goldfish with his picture on it. That is such a unique present. And, of course, blue and green are yummy. :)
