Praise the pumpkin gods

I am the Pumpkin Queen. I have a bit of a love affair with all things pumpkin and have made it my goal to try as many pumpkin spice-related things this season and in all the autumns as long as I live. "There's nothing unique about that," you say. And you're right. It's not. But I'm not in the business of giving all that many fucks. So sit back and read and then get your ass out there and praise the pumpkin gods for these glorious gifts.

International Delight Pumpkin Pie Spice Mini I.D.'s Coffee Creamer


8/10 Typically, I drink my coffee black. That means no sugar or sugar substitutes for my first morning coffee. However, I made an exception with this creamer. Each single serve (13mL), non-dairy creamer delivers 30 calories of pumpkin spice goodness, enhanced only by either straight sugar or sugar substitute (whichever your heart desires). It serves as a buffer to an otherwise iron stomach such as mine, so accustomed to bitter, black coffee. But if you want an unbiased opinion, my boyfriend says, "it was tasty" and backs up this score.

Chocolate Chocolate Chocolate Company Pumpkin Pie Bark


9/10 This is one of the most creamy, melt-in-your-mouth milk chocolates that I've ever pushed past my lips. Even one nibble left me feeling like I wanted another, so creamy the texture was. The spices were subtle, which worked for this chocolate, given how creamy it was. You can order some from this website here.

Tastykake Pumpkin Spice Mini Donuts






6/10 Imagine a regular powdered doughnut only with added cinnamon, very slight hints of nutmeg, and orange food coloring, and you have these mini donuts by Tastykake. By taste standards, they rank high, but in terms of how "pumpkin spice" they are, I have to score them lower. Don't get me wrong, now; they're still delicious with an ice cold glass of milk.
