New Product Kirkland Signature Pumpkin Bar Cake

The scoop

Fall baking season is here, and Costco is once again stocking the Kirkland Signature Pumpkin Bar Cake in the bakery case. If you love pumpkin spice desserts, this one is hard to walk past.

This is a layered bar cake built with pumpkin puree cake layers, cream cheese frosting, and a topping of white chocolate curls. The label lists real pumpkin puree along with warm spice flavoring, molasses, and fruit juice color, giving it that classic autumn look and flavor profile.

At 2.50 pounds, this is a big dessert meant for sharing at a gathering, potluck, or office party. The ingredient list is fairly long, as expected from a bakery case item, but it reads like a solid layered cake built for people who want that pumpkin-cream cheese combo without baking from scratch.
