60+ Gift Ideas For Everyone On Your List

1. Pumpkin Spice Mini Sheet Cakes

Nothing says "fall" like pumpkin spice season at Trader Joe's. If you love all things pumpkin, you'll definitely want to try the latest addition to their autumnal lineup: These to-die-for Pumpkin Spice Mini Sheet Cakes, which are already receiving rave reviews from shoppers. Moist? Check! Delicious cream cheese frosting? Check. Perfectly pumpkin-y? Major check! What's not to love? We're running to grab one right now—and let's be honest, we'll probably eat it in one sitting.

2. All-Butter Apple Shortbread Cookies

If apple is more your speed than pumpkin, don't fret; there's still plenty to look forward to when it comes to the treasure trove of products on TJ's shelves this fall. Take these all-butter apple shortbread cookies, for example. These are crafted to perfection the U.K., where they're baked to a golden-brown crisp. The Trader Joe's website describes them as rich, crumbly, and sweet. What more could you ask for in a cookie?

3. Freeze-Dried Tart Cherries

Summer may be fading from view, but that doesn't mean you can't still enjoy some tasty cherries—especially if they're freeze-dried. Maybe you've heard the buzz around tart cherry juice for sleep, but it's important to note that eating these bad boys is delicious in its own right. Mix these freeze-dried fruits into oatmeal, sprinkle them over your yogurt parfait, bake them into treats, or just enjoy them by the handful. Yum!

4. Yuzu Miso

Sweet and savory is a food combo we'll never pass up, especially when it comes to two of our favorite flavors: yuzu and miso. This white miso topping and spread is flavored with tart yuzu juice and yuzu zest for a profile we can't resist. It's a great addition to meat like fish, steak, and chicken, but it also works perfectly with some simple rice or potatoes.

5. Panzerotti Pizza Bites

Pizza, anyone? We love a good pizza roll, and it's no surprise that Trader Joe's does this snack perfectly. Picture a bite-sized calzone filled with mozzarella cheese and Italian tomato sauce, all wrapped in a chewy, perfectly golden dough. Our stomachs are grumbling just thinking about it! We can only imagine how wonderful these would taste straight out of the air fryer.

6. Pumpkin Spice Cold Brew Concentrate

A pumpkin spice latte is about as classically fall as coffee gets—but if cold brew is more your thing, Trader Joe's has you covered this year. You'll find 32-oz bottles of Pumpkin Spice Cold Brew Concentrate on shelves this month. This coffee is made with 100% Arabica beans and flavored with cinnamon, ginger, clove, and nutmeg. Simply mix one part concentrate with two parts water or milk, and sip to your heart's desire!

7. Savory Squash Pastry Bites

From sweet to savory, pastries have our hearts, no matter the health consequences—including these Savory Squash Pastry Bites from Trader Joe's. These feature pastry crust filled with pumpkin and butternut squash, alongside mascarpone, ricotta, feta, and parmesan. Is your mouth watering? In addition to the great taste, another thing to love is their easy prep: just throw these pastry bites into the oven or air fryer for a few minutes to enjoy.

8. White Stilton Cheese with Apple and Pear

Hosting a wine and cheese night or putting together an autumnal charcuterie board? You should already know that Trader Joe's is your one-stop-shop for delicious cheeses. Here's a seasonal one that should definitely be on your radar. This White Stilton Cheese features delicious apple-pear compote and dried apple peaches. It's aged to tangy, airy perfection, and it will pair perfectly with the fruit present in it and some crackers—but we'll definitely enjoy it on its own, too.
