Nothing goes together quite like chocolate and fruit, which makes Trader Joe's new Dark Chocolate Pineapple Sticks a perfect pairing.
Some Trader Joe's fans may remember that the brand already sells Dark Chocolate Orange Sticks, which are incredibly popular. The new Dark Chocolate Pineapple Sticks build on that popularity by taking the deliciously sweet taste of pineapple and pairing it with rich dark chocolate. To create the treat, Trader Joe's supplier – a family-owned candy business – starts by crafting the delightfully chewy, Pineapple-flavored center then wrapping each stick in a dark chocolate shell. The result is a bite-sized treat that is guaranteed to satisfy your sweet tooth.
The new Dark Chocolate Pineapple Sticks are available now for a limited time.
