Costco's Pumpkin Cheesecake Arrives Early to Delight Fans

This fall, Costco's bakery is getting a head start on seasonal treats, introducing the much-anticipated pumpkin cheesecake earlier than last year. The Kirkland Signature Pumpkin Cheesecake, weighing in at a hefty 70 ounces and priced at $21.99, features a graham cracker crust topped with a creamy pumpkin cheesecake layer and a dollop of pumpkin-flavored whipped topping.

Spotted at a Michigan warehouse by Instagram user @costcobuys, the dessert is bound to be a hit, although it has had its share of mixed reviews. Last year, the recipe change sparked some controversy among fans, with many expressing nostalgia for the previous tangy cinnamon spread topping. While some customers lamented the new version, others praised it, calling it a “perfect fusion of cheesecake and pumpkin pie.”

As Thanksgiving approaches, this seasonal favorite is sure to be a crowd-pleaser, whether served with ice cream or enjoyed on its own.
