"This year, there was a lot of excitement surrounding TJ's fall items. I must have seen at least a hundred TikToks showcasing the grocery store's seasonal must-haves, and between all of them, there was one common thread: the Pumpkin Caramel Danish Kringle. Danish Kringle is an oval-shaped, flaky, buttery pastry filled with fruits, nuts, or cream cheese, topped with a sweet icing. It was introduced in the US by Danish immigrants who moved to Racine, Wisconsin, in the late 1800s."
"The Kringles are also available at TJ's in other flavors like Pecan and Almond during other seasons. Interestingly, Trader Joe's sources all of their Kringles from O&H Danish Bakery in Racine, Wisconsin, and it's one of the few places you can get them outside of the Midwest. The back of the package revealed all kinds of gems, like the fact that the bakery's been around since 1949 and that Kringle takes three full days to make."
"It reminded me of a fall-inspired cinnamon roll, but it was made of puff pastry instead of dough. If I'm being honest, I couldn't really taste any pumpkin or spices, but the hints of caramel were there. The icing was also very sweet, but it made me nostalgic for those super decadent Cinnabon cinnamon rolls I used to eat as a kid."
Pumpkin Caramel Danish Kringle is a seasonal fall pastry sold at Trader Joe's, sourced from O&H Danish Bakery in Racine, Wisconsin. Kringle is an oval-shaped, flaky, buttery pastry traditionally filled with fruits, nuts, or cream cheese and topped with sweet icing; the bakery has operated since 1949 and each Kringle takes three days to make. The Pumpkin Caramel flavor appears only in fall, while other flavors like Pecan and Almond are offered seasonally. Packaging recommends serving at room temperature or warmed. Tasting notes include dominant caramel and very sweet icing, mild or indistinct pumpkin spice, a puff-pastry texture, and nostalgic cinnamon-roll qualities. Recommendation: recommended.
