Whether it’s with a festive sheet cake or a dip that’s too good not to share, Trader Joe’s loves to give people a reason to celebrate, and the latest snack to hit shelves clearly understood the assignment. This brightly bagged, bite-sized treat encourages shoppers to celebrate even life’s smallest moments of joy, like snagging a prime spot in the Trader Joe’s parking lot or the gift of enjoying a perfectly sunny spring or summer day. There may not always be time to bake a cake, but luckily this festive new item from Trader Joe’s gets the celebration going in no time at all. The store has transformed one of its most beloved boxed cake mixes into a convenient grab-and-go snack.
Trader Joe’s New Celebration Cake Pretzels
These colorful, candy-coated pretzels turn snack time into a party! Trader Joe’s Celebration Cake Pretzels are a crunchy, handheld version of the store’s boxed Celebration Cake mix, and like an instant bite of confetti cake. Rather than firing up the oven, just take a stroll over to the pantry, where a bag of mini salted pretzels await, generously covered in a rich vanilla frosting-flavored candy coating, and then topped with rainbow nonpareils for an extra bit of sweetness and crunchy texture.
The saltiness of the pretzels balances out the sweetness of the coating and sprinkles, and the candy coating truly captures that classic birthday cake flavor. These Celebration Cake Pretzels are perfect for snacking, school lunches, picnics, road tripping, sweet-and-salty dessert boards, or crumbling over ice cream.
What Fans Are Saying About Trader Joe’s Celebration Cake Pretzels
Trader Joe’s shoppers are finding this snack irresistible. One person on Reddit joked to beware of how delicious they are, writing, “Warning, the Celebration Cake Pretzels are addictive.” Another fan on Reddit commented they were “afraid the coating may be too sweet or vanilla-y, but it was just right, and the pretzels had enough salt to balance it out.”
If you haven’t tried them yet, another shopper compared the pretzels to frosted animal cookies, which is what I instantly thought upon trying them. The touch of salt was the perfect addition for bringing balance to the sweeter elements. Priced at just $2.99, there are plenty of reasons to celebrate Trader Joe’s latest snack. Be sure to pick up a bag or two (or three) before the party ends and this treat disappears from Trader Joe’s shelves.
