Candy is supposed to be fun, and these cute, pastel-hued puffs definitely deliver on that front. They’re airy, fizzy, tangy and just a little sour. They melt on your tongue in seconds, leaving behind a blast of watermelon flavor. As one Redditor put it: "I wasn’t sure at first, but I came around. Fun to try, even if I don’t grab them again." A 1.5-ounce bag is $3.99.

Brand new Trader Joe’s Products - arrived TODAY! Crunchy Sesame Sunflower Seeds Pepitas Salsa Macha -and- Dark Chocolate Covered Cashews. Spoiler… Susan does NOT use “real good” in this video ? #traderjoes #traderjoesfoodreviews #YouMeFoodReview You Me Food Review@Trader Joe's
♬ original sound - You Me Food ReviewThink of salsa macha, the classic Mexican condiment, as chili oil with an extra nutty crunch. This TJ's version swaps the traditional peanuts for a trio of seeds (sesame, sunflower and pepitas) suspended in olive oil with pequin chiles for gentle heat. It’s endlessly versatile: drizzle it over tacos, swirl into soup, fry an egg in it, or (if you’re adventurous) spoon some over vanilla ice cream. "So good! If you love pepitas like me, you'll love this," said one Redditor. "Wish there were more than sesame. Not too spicy. Perfect on avocado toast. I prefer the Asian brands for the crunchy chili oil but this one is great!!" $4.49 for a 6-ounce jar.
3. Fruit Jellies Candy

These chewy little jewels come in flavors like peach, pear, cherry and mango, with a sugared outer layer and soft interior. Made in the U.K. by an expert confectioner, they’re as tea-party ready as they are snack-drawer worthy. Reddit reactions were mixed—pear and cherry were hits, peach less so—but for the price, it's a gamble you can afford to take. "Picked up this cute little box in my store today for $1.99. Similar texture to the ones in the clear container but a little more dense. Pear and cherry were delicious but I didn’t love peach (had a weird aftertaste) and mango was ok!" says one Redditor. $1.99 for a 3.5-ounce box for a limited time.

✨New Item: Crunchy Milk Chocoate and Sea Salt Thins #traderjoes #traderjoesfoodreviews #chocolate
♬ Refreshing and light indie pop(1552207) - Cheng LeeIndividually wrapped Colombian milk chocolate squares studded with crunchy toffee-like bits and a sprinkle of sea salt? Yes, please!! These poppable treats are salty-sweet perfection, ideal for pairing with coffee or cheese. (Trader Joe’s suggests serving them with their Stilton with apricots.) A Redditor summed it up simply: "Oh man, these look amazing. The dark chocolate thins with cacao bits are also really good, but I’m a milk chocolate lover and I’m excited to try these!" $3.49 for a 3.4-ounce bag.
5. Salted Maple Cold Foam Creamer

Trader Joe’s is leaning hard into big maple energy this fall (as they should) with this fluffy cold foam creamer. Sweet, salty and light as air, it’s meant to float on top of your iced coffee, just like the Starbucks version. It hasn’t hit every store yet, but the internet is already buzzing with excitement. $4.49 for a 15-ounce can.Related: Trader Joe’s Is Selling This French Sweet Treat and Fans Can’t Get Enough

A post shared by Trader Joe’s Calories (@traderjoescalories)
Buttery, crumbly and made with freeze-dried apricots and apricot juice concentrate, these cookies are almost 25% butter by weight (yes, you read that right). Baked in small batches in the U.K. and stamped with a tiny apricot shape on top, they’re as pretty as they are delicious. "If these are even half as good as the apple ones, they will be delicious," said one Redditor. $3.49 for a 4.93-ounce box for a limited time.
7. Mini Cinnamon Sugar Cookies
These bite-sized cookies let cinnamon take center stage instead of being a bit player in pumpkin spice. Light, crisp and sprinkled with coarse sugar, they’re the kind of snack you’ll want to stash in your desk drawer (or hide from your kids). One fan said: "The right amount of sweetness and spice. Light and crunchy too." The price also recommends them. They're just 99 cents for a 2-ounce bag.
8. Organic Black Pepper Barilotti Pasta

A post shared by Trader Joe’s Calories (@traderjoescalories)
Straight from Italy, these bronze-cut barrel pasta shapes are infused with organic black pepper. The flavor is peppery and slightly citrusy and the shape is perfect for grabbing onto sauces. Try it hot with Alfredo or (a Redditor favorite) cold in a pasta salad. "Made it last night with the Calabrian chili marinara sauce, and it was delicious!" says another Redditor. $2.99 for a 16-ounce bag for a limited time.Related: I Tried 13 Popular Jarred Alfredo Sauces and the Winner Was Abundantly Clear
9. 3 Cheese Spinach & Artichoke Pasta
Your dreams have come true: Trader Joe’s famous spinach-artichoke dip is now a full meal. The sauce is rich with Swiss, mozzarella and Parmesan cheeses, plus chunks of artichoke and spinach. Fans recommend baking in the oven instead of microwaving for best results, though many said it needed extra seasoning. "I thought it was decent but not salted/seasoned enough. I made it in the oven and made sure to stir throughout. I also had to add a lot of salt and cracked black pepper," says one. Try it out and see for yourself. $3.79 for a 12-ounce package.Related: This $5 Trader Joe’s Find Just Leveled Up My Morning Coffee Routine

This frozen flatbread, made in Egypt, puffs up beautifully in the oven or microwave. It has a subtle sourdough tang and is perfect for stuffing with falafel, shawarma or just scooping up hummus. "Finally found this yesterday! They had just 2 left. I really liked this. I had it with the roasted red pepper hummus and the frozen palak paneer and it paired really well," says one Redditor. $2.49 for a 14.1-ounce bag.
11. Tropical Smoothie Blend
This freezer blend makes smoothies ridiculously easy. Just blend the frozen mango, pineapple, banana, coconut cream cubes, agave and passionfruit puree with water or milk and drink up. Fans are also signing off on the mix as the base for a smoothie bowl. "The new Tropical Smoothie Blend as a bowl is so good! Topped mine with coconut, granola, chia seeds, and fresh pineapple," says one fan. $3.99 for a 16-ounce bag.
12. Hazelnut & Cocoa Filled Crepes

A post shared by Trader Joe’s Calories (@traderjoescalories)
These individually wrapped crepes stuffed with smooth hazelnut cocoa creme are made in the U.S. by a French family bakery. Eat them straight from the package or heat briefly for melty, bakery-fresh vibes. One Redditor shares their tip for these: "Pre-diet me used to pan fry these in butter till warmed through and slightly crispy." $3.99 for a 6.78-ounce pack.
13. Crustless Peanut Butter & Strawberry Jam Sandwiches
This is Trader Joe’s answer to Uncrustables. They've taken what folks love about the grab-and-go PB&Js and made them vegan and with fewer preservatives. The frozen sandwiches, which are perfect for kiddo or adult lunches, are stuffed with salty peanut butter and bright strawberry jam. One Redditor says: "I just had to get them for the nostalgia. To me, they’re way better than Uncrustables but still super nostalgic." That's good enough for us! $3.79 for an 8.89-ounce box.Related: We Tried 12 Strawberry Jams and the Winner Won By a Landslide

This one isn't officially on shelves yet, but social media leaks have confirmed this fall-ready loaf is on the way. Made with diced apples, cinnamon and brown sugar, it’s Trader Joe’s cozy twist on sourdough. One commenter gave TJ’s the ultimate seal of approval: "The timing! I'm going to eat this while listening to The Life of a Showgirl, and pretend it's baked by Taylor herself. ?" $4.99 per loaf coming soon.Related:Trader Joe’s Just Announced That a Tangy New Product Is Coming to Stores for a Limited Time
15. 3 Cheese Pasta with Eggplant
This new dinner option is a Sicilian-inspired frozen pasta dish with penne, eggplant, tomato sauce and a rich three-cheese blend (mozzarella, provolone and hard grating cheese). It comes in two paper trays, which make it super easy to portion for lunch or dinner. Fans are hyped, especially eggplant lovers, with one saying they’re already dreaming up bruschetta pairings for the easy, cheesy main course. $4.49 for a 13.05-ounce package.
16. Chocolate Whipped Light Cream
One of the newest arrivals to hit Trader Joe’s shelves was recently spotted in a Massachusetts store, and fans are excited to find it at their local TJ's. "Just making sure we’re all in agreement to eat this straight from the can, right?" joked one Redditor, echoing the excitement of dozens more who’ve vowed to scoop it up. While official details and pricing haven’t been released yet, if you’re looking for a fresh topping for ice cream, coffee or fruit, this is one to watch for.
17. Apizza Gouda Cheese

Trader Joe’s is about to change cheese boards forever with its new Apizza Gouda drop. This creamy gouda is blended with marinated tomatoes, garlic and oregano, aka all the best parts of a pizza, packed right into a block you can slice, melt or grate. It’s basically pizza without the crust. We can't wait to try it on flatbread or on a cheeseboard. We have a sneaking suspicion that it will pair well with pepperoni. $12.99 per pound, in the cheese case soon.
