Trader Joe’s has brought back their popular Pumpkin Caramel Kringle pastry, and fans on social media are overjoyed after spotting them in stores! Many are acting fast and grabbing them, as they are seasonal treats that won’t be available for much longer.

According to O&H Danish Bakery, who provides the product to Trader Joe’s, this beloved Kringle is a Danish pastry with a delectable combination of 36 buttery layers filled with various ingredients such as cheese, fruits, nuts, and spices. After it is baked, the dessert item it is then drizzled with icing and garnished with either crushed nuts, cinnamon and sugar, or both.

Trader Joe’s Pumpkin Caramel Kringle Pastries Are Currently Back In Stores

The autumnal pumpkin variety boasts a sweet blend of pumpkin, spices and caramel filling, and is finished with crushed pecans. Fans on Reddit have rated it a “12/10” when it comes to its taste, and other shoppers on Instagram are even writing that it is “better” than Trader Joe’s pumpkin pie when it comes to the grocer’s fall 2023 treats.

On X (formerly Twitter), many customers are also currently raving about the Kringle as it is still on store shelves. “The Pumpkin Caramel Danish Kringle from Trader Joe’s SLAPS, my favorite fall treat,” one tweeted as another wrote: “The pumpkin caramel kringle from Trader Joe’s should be illegal it’s so fkn good.” One other chimed in: “How does anyone purchase a pumpkin caramel danish kringle from Trader Joe’s and not devour the whole thing in one night??”

Real Simple reports that a single Trader Joe’s Pumpkin Caramel Kringle is priced at $10. For those who are unsure how to best prepare and serve it, TikTok creator Nick (@snickolas) suggests warming it up in the oven at 350 degrees for three and a half minutes. In case your nearby Trader Joe’s location runs out of stock, you may still purchase the Kringle directly from O&H. However, do note that this option will come at a higher price of $24 plus shipping and handling.

Similar to other products available at Trader Joe’s, these autumnal Kringles are only available for a limited time. However, throughout the year, the chain does offer Kringles in different flavors such as apple, almond, pecan and cinnamon. When you head to your grocery store for your next shopping trip, keep an eye out for these tasty fall treats this season!
