5 Items Trader Joe’s Is Discontinuing In January–Get Them While You Can!

Trader Joe’s is constantly rolling out the most amazing brand-new and returning seasonal items, and we’re always excited to see what they’ll put onto the shelves each month. The only downside to this is the fact that they have to get rid of many of our favorite products in order to make room for the new ones, and saying goodbye is certainly hard. In fact, we’re just now getting over the fact that many of our go-to fall goodies are gone until next year—and it’s already nearing the time to bid adieu to many of our holiday favorites. Say it ain’t so!

It’s true: As we enter the new year, we’ll have to leave several seasonal TJ’s products behind (until next December, of course). Below, we’re rounding up a few of the soon-to-be discontinued items you won’t be able to find on shelves for much longer, from cookies to sparkling beverages.

1. Dark Chocolate Stars Cookies

Let's be honest: Trader Joe's spoils us with their amazing cookie selection, but these Dark Chocolate Star Cookies are some of the best they have to offer. And they're a classic—they've returned fifteen years in a row! We look forward to stocking up on these chocolate-covered shortbread cookies every year. If you haven't had a chance to grab a box yet, act fast, because they won't be around much longer.

2. Pretzel Bread Pudding with Caramel Sauce

The frozen desserts at Trader Joe's are unbeatable, and this Pretzel Bread Pudding with Caramel Sauce is reportedly one of the best in the game. Seriously—fans have been raving about it online and giving it 10/10 reviews. It's sweet, it's salty, it's a little bit sticky, and it's 100% delicious. We recommend grabbing a few boxes for good measure, because there's no telling when it'll be back.

3. Something Spritzy Holiday Beverage

Who doesn't love a sparkling bev?! Here's one we're really sad to see go. The Something Spritzy Holiday Beverage hit shelves for the first time this year, and it was an instant classic. This is the perfect non-alcoholic, festive drink to enjoy at holiday parties or while relaxing in front of your favorite Christmas movie. It features grapefruit, cranberry, and orange juice, along with aromatic bitters. We hope to see it come back next year.

There's nothing like some fresh-baked cinnamon rolls in the morning. And when you can't make a trip to the bakery, canned cinnamon rolls will do the trick, especially when they're as good as these Organic Jumbo Cinnamon Rolls from Trader Joe's. Unfortunately, they're not available year-round, and they'll be leaving the store next month. So sad!

5. Candy Cane Joe-Joes

We love the fact that Trader Joe's stocks shelves with seasonal Joe-Joe flavors, but we hate the fact that we can't have all of them all the time! This winter variety features the classic chocolate wafer cookies and vanilla cream filling we know and love, with an added peppermint twist. It's the perfect sweet treat for winter, but we also wish we'd be able to buy a box in the spring... and summer... and fall. But at least we can still enjoy OG Joe-Joes!
