Costco's New Bakery Coffee Cake Has Customers 'Literally Running' To The Warehouse
Prediction: Costco's new bakery item will be your most beloved sweet treat this fall. More shockingly, it doesn't contain a single iota of pumpkin. Sorry, gourds, but the Kirkland Signature Cherry Almond Coffee Cake has everyone leaving pumpkin bread on read as it declares cherry the new "it girl" of cozy autumnal flavors.
Featuring a tart cherry filling and an almond streusel topping, the Kirkland Signature Cherry Almond Coffee Cake is buttery, moist, and just sweet enough. Whether you're enjoying it with a cup of coffee like a civilized citizen or eating it over the kitchen island like a rabid raccoon at 2 a.m., this new coffee cake deserves a spot in your Costco cart.
Despite being an overpriced Costco bakery item, the Kirkland Signature coffee cakes already have a built-in fan club — its Cinnamon Coffee Cake has a reputation for being dangerously delicious. So it's no wonder that its newest coffee cake flavor has people running to their nearest Costco to try a bite. If you're lucky, you may even get to sample it warm.
Costco's new Kirkland Signature Cherry Almond Coffee Cake has customers excited
Priced at $11.99, the Kirkland Signature Cherry Almond Coffee Cake offers 12 servings, which works out to $1 per slice. This will probably be the lowest price you'll find, as Costco rarely puts its baked goods on sale. Your local Costco may not have it in stock quite yet, but rest assured it should be there soon. You can call ahead to ask or check your local Costco's inventory online. But don't be surprised if it's sold out before you get there — this is one new bakery item customers can't wait to try.
Customers haven't been able to contain their excitement for the new Kirkland Signature Cherry Almond Coffee Cake. In a comment under an Instagram post shared by @costcohotfinds highlighting Costco's newest bakery addition, one user wrote, "I NEED THIS." Another said, "Oh I just KNOW this tastes amazing warmed up," while another Instagram user mentioned they were "literally RUNNING to Costco!!!!!!"
"Costco needs to stop. If they want me to buy all of this deliciousness, then they need to throw in a free DEFIBRILLATOR," joked another Costco bakery fan in the comments, shining a more positive light on other customers' concerns about the amount of sugar the Kirkland Signature coffee cakes contain. Still, that's nothing a hot cup of coffee can't help balance out.
