Weighing in at just over 2-pounds, the chain’s take on a classic features a moist, spice-flavored cake topped with thick cream cheese frosting and a generous blanket of sweet white chocolate curls. While most of the reviews are in favor of dessert, the seasonal confection seems to have divided fans across social media.
The dedicated r/costco subreddit recently shared a photo showing multiple rows of the pastry with the caption, “PUMPKIN SPICE LOAF IS BACK ????.” The general consensus in the comments was positive, with one user writing, “This is the best day of my life,” and another simply agreeing, “YAY!”

That being said, a few commenters weren’t as impressed. One netizen commented, “It’s mid-tier,” while another added, “I think the white chocolate curls are overkill, but not enough to keep me away.”
Whatever your preference is, the fall-ready dessert won’t be around for long. Prices may vary from store to store but the average price seems to be around $9.99.
If you’re a long-standing devotee — or just want to see what the hype is about — you’ll want to make a beeline to the bakery section to snag this delicacy, perfect for your next cozy season party.
