After introducing its Hold the Cone! Mini Ice Cream Cones earlier this year, Trader Joe's is now launching a seasonal Pumpkin Ginger variety.
These ready-to-eat mini cones boast ginger-flavored cones that are said to remind of gingerbread and a filling of pumpkin ice cream. As with many fall pumpkin products, the ice cream is spiced with ginger, nutmeg, cinnamon and cloves. To top it all off, the ice cream is encased in a sweet white confectionary coating that is sure to be a treat for those who love the flavors of the season.
Although there are many spiced pumpkin ice cream desserts that are being sold by the pint this autumn, these miniature ice cream cones put a new spin on the concept and offer a refreshing alternative to traditional pumpkin pie.
