Trader Joe's Fans Are Freaking Out About The Return Of Pumpkin Spice Batons

Fall is finally here, which means that pumpkin season is in full swing. This is the time of year when many people enjoy their favorite mouth-watering pumpkin-themed treats, like a festive pumpkin pie or Starbucks' famous Pumpkin Spice Latte. However, while enjoying these classic items may be a yearly tradition for some, others might find that eating the same pumpkin-flavored desserts over and over each fall gets a little boring after a while.

But luckily, Trader Joe's has just the thing for individuals who love the flavor of pumpkin but also want a little variety in their seasonal snacking. The popular grocery store is celebrating the return of fall by bringing back its popular Pumpkin Spice Batons. Measuring over 6 inches long, these unique straw-shaped treats are made with wafer cookies and have a pumpkin-flavored cream filling, according to Trader Joe's website. That filling is flavored with a combination of spices such as cinnamon, ginger, and nutmeg, to deliver a dessert that sounds like sweet, seasonal bliss. 

As a bonus, each baton contains just 60 calories and three grams of fat (via Freezer Meal Frenzy). So you can still indulge in a little sweet pumpkin goodness without adding a lot of calories to your daily intake.

Fans of the wafer treat were pleased to see the product finally return to Trader Joe's shelves.
