The Best New Pumpkin Finds From Trader Joe's This September 2026
The last quarter of the year is awesome for foodies, what with the run-up to Thanksgiving and Christmas, but it all kicks off with fall. Suddenly, we're up to our noses in warm spices, and everything comes in shades of orange — and we cannot get enough! We're first in the line to try retailers' seasonal offerings, and this year, Trader Joe's has definitely got the fall memo because it is pumpkinning everything. There are armfuls of returning faves, from jars of pumpkin butter and the store's legendary pumpkin cheesecake, to mini spicy pumpkin samosas and a decadent, delightful pumpkin sheet cake. But they're not all the season has to offer ...
This year, sprinkled in among those familiar faves, Trader Joe's has introduced a handful of brand-spanking-new pumpkin-themed items. From a sourdough loaf that shoppers cannot snap up fast enough, to a boozy version of pumpkin spice coffee, TJ's is bringing its A-game to the season we love. As always, prices and availability were correct at the time of writing, while many of these are limited-time offerings just out for the season. Contact your local store to avoid disappointment if there's something particular you have your eye on.
Snowball Pumpkins
The traditional image of a pumpkin is a Jack-o'-Lantern, which, no matter the face carved into it, is likely gonna be orange. This year, you can bring a little different spook to your fall decorations with TJ's exquisite snowball pumpkins. They're white, smoothly round (as opposed to bumpy), and you can totally decorate them for Halloween before chopping them up and eating them. Don't forget to turn those gloopy pumpkin guts into soup!

Pumpkin Flan
Anyone who has ever made a flan knows there are a couple of big mistakes that can destroy your dream dessert. We say ditch the recipe book this fall and pick up some of Trader Joe's pumpkin flans instead. The traditionally cooked custard is infused with delicious pumpkin purée and autumnal seasoning, which gets drenched in the caramel sauce after being flipped out of its pot. There are two in a pack, but we'd definitely eat both.

Pumpkin Spice Espresso Martini Wine Cocktail
We let y'all in on how to amp up the flavor of your pumpkin spice latte, but if you're in the mood for something a little more grown-up but just as fall-centric, TJ's has got you covered. Say hello to the pumpkin spice espresso martini. The name is a mouthful, but so is the drink — in the very best way. It combines coffee and a neutral vodka with warm spices to create a sophisticated, ready-to-drink way to celebrate the season.

Pumpkin Pie Spice Bark
Move over, peppermint bark, there's a new sweet treat in town, and it's pumpkin-flavored! This white chocolate confection features bits of gingersnap cookies and pretzels, as well as a generous amount of pumpkin pie spices. It's topped with a sprinkling of sea salt and a swirl of dark chocolate, meaning it might just be our new favorite fall nibble. Do not sleep on these treats if you spot them in your local store!

Organic Pumpkin Pie Spice Creamer
What do you get if you blend organic milk, cream, and sugar with natural flavors? This pumpkin pie spice creamer, of course! TJ's stands to hit this one out of the park, in our humble opinion. You can add a splash to even the darkest of coffee roasts, but the pumpkin-forward creamer looks like it should pair deliciously with a range of teas, too. Properly stored, an open coffee creamer has a decent shelf life, but we predict this bad boy will be consumed in days!

Sliced Pumpkin Sourdough Bread
Trader Joe's shoppers have gone bonkers for this fall-flavored sourdough, which is made with pumpkin purée, as well as no fewer than eight spices, including nutmeg, ginger, and cinnamon. "I just ate some and I am ready to buy another loaf," one delighted Redditor enthused. Toast it and slather it with traditional or pumpkin butter, or just devour it as is, straight outta the bag. When it pops up in your store, grab several bags, freeze them, and thank us later.
