One Of Trader Joe's Best Seasonal Items Of 2026 Blends 2 Fall Flavors Into Bite-Sized Chocolates

Trader Joe's seasonal fall snacks are always worth a trip to the supermarket chain's outposts. This fallish chocolate will remind you of a delicious, homey dessert that adds an extra layer of comfort to any autumnal table.

Apple Crisp Milk Chocolate Caramels are naturally inspired by the dessert and are comprised of a caramel base that's flavored with apple and cinnamon, both key ingredients in your average apple crisp recipe. The caramel lies atop a creamy chocolate filling that's been mixed with a crisp designed to mimic streusel topping, and the caramels are finished with a milk chocolate coating. Each box contains ten pieces.

The treats made Tasting Table's list of the 10 best seasonal items offered up by the market in 2026. "Trader Joe's has once again practiced dessert alchemy," our reviewer wrote about the treat. They also praised the candy for lacking an artificial taste. And our critic isn't the only one impressed by TJ's candy.

Lots of consumers posting to Trader Joe's subreddits love the Apple Crisp Milk Chocolate Caramels. "I'm not even a big chocolate fan and I ate my box of these in 24 hours. So good," one poster said. "These are seriously some of the best chocolates I've ever had! The filling is so flavorful and the chocolate is so creamy," said another, who gave the treats a ten out of ten. Others commented on the delightfully smooth texture of the caramel and apple-forward flavor.

There was, however, at least one consumer who didn't enjoy the taste of the candy. "I bought these today and what a huge disappointment. The apple cinnamon is more like apple jelly on top of caramel," a Facebook poster said. Another Reddit user felt the apple flavor wasn't quite strong enough, saying it quickly gave way to a honey aftertaste. But while the chocolates aren't a hit with everyone, they have enough fans to make them a standout among Trader Joe's seasonal offerings.
