Author’s Note: As always, this is not a paid review. I have no affiliation with The Snack Factory<\/a> or Sam’s Club. I bought these goodies with my own dad-gum money.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

No pumpkins were harmed in the making of these pretzels.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

I previously reviewed these Peppermint White Creme Pretzel Thins from The Snack Factory.<\/a> I was stoked to find this Pumpkin Spice version at Sam’s Club (no, I’m not a member — read all about my sneaky visit<\/a> here).<\/p>\n\n\n

There are more broken fragments than I expected — more than I experienced in the different-flavored-bag I bought from Costco a couple years ago. This isn’t a deal breaker. But. Slightly less attractive for entertaining. Maybe I just got a bad bag. But mine look like they were broken BEFORE being dipped in the coating. Behold:<\/p>\n\n\n

The flavor is fabulous. It’s everything you’d expect from “pumpkin spice” — cinnamon, nutmeg, and a hint of clove, with a (real) vanilla finish. Yes, there is actual vanilla in here! The added “natural flavors” make the pumpkin spice aromas extra-strong. There’s a satisfying sprinkle of saltiness to make the flavors pop. It’s delicious, even if no actual pumpkin is involved.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

(For an “actual pumpkin” treat, check out my review of Costco’s Pumpkin Streusel Muffins<\/a>.)<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

The pretzels are generously coated in the white “creme” exoskeleton. It’s a bit like a yogurt-covered pretzel. But sorta crisper, and with a different flavor. Milky, but less tangy than yogurt. I was pleased to see real milk powder in the ingredients.<\/p>\n\n\n

Look how thiccc<\/em> it is. It’s a lot like “white chocolate,” without the actual cocoa butter. Less melty. Gently sweet. This coating is made from a combination of palm and coconut oils, which I don’t mind at all. Get in my belly.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

The Snack Factory’s signature move is this elegantly thin, super crisp<\/em> pretzel. Cracker-like. They’re weirdly satisfying. Somehow “better” than a thicker, rounded pretzel. No, I can’t explain that. They just are. Try it yourself. The shape really makes a difference.<\/p>\n\n\n

Plus, these guys are dang cute. The contrasting drizzle on top really brings the whole package together. I love that the orange color is from paprika extract. No icky dyes here. They have an almost homemade aesthetic.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
