Kroger’s bakery is bringing serious fall vibes with pumpkin cookies, caramel apple donuts, cozy muffins, and irresistible desserts. From returning shopper favorites to exciting seasonal arrivals, these 12 treats deserve a closer look during your next grocery run.
1. Private Selection Pumpkin Spice Blondies — $6.99
These aren’t your typical pumpkin bars. They’re thick, rich, and topped with creamy icing that makes them feel more like a bakery dessert than a simple snack. A little crunch adds to the experience, while the warm pumpkin-spice flavor makes them especially appealing this time of year. One of Kroger’s newer fall arrivals, they’re an interesting pick for anyone who loves indulgent pumpkin treats.
2. Private Selection Gluten-Free Pumpkin Spice Muffins — $7.99
Kroger’s gluten-free pumpkin muffins bring a little bakery-style comfort to busy mornings. They have a soft, moist texture and the familiar warmth of pumpkin spice. The four-pack makes them convenient for breakfast or afternoon coffee. Even shoppers who don’t usually reach for gluten-free baked goods might find these appealing.
3. Private Selection Pumpkin Spice Shortbread Cookies — $3.99
If you’re tired of overly soft pumpkin cookies, these offer a refreshing change. They have that satisfying shortbread crunch with a buttery finish and just enough seasonal spice to make them interesting. They’re the kind of cookies you’ll want to keep nearby for an afternoon coffee break. At $3.99, they’re also an easy fall treat to try without spending much.
4. Bakery Fresh Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Soft Top Cookies — $6.49
These thick, pillowy cookies have developed quite a following among Kroger shoppers. They’re softer and more cake-like than traditional chocolate chip cookies, with pumpkin flavor that pairs nicely with the chocolate. Some fans have even searched for homemade versions. If you’ve never tried Kroger’s Soft Top Cookies, this seasonal variety is a good place to start.
5. Bakery Fresh Apple Cinnamon Soft Top Cookies — $6.49
These might be one of Kroger’s most talked-about seasonal cookies. They’re big, wonderfully soft, and have that comforting apple-cinnamon flavor you associate with homemade fall baking. Shoppers have shared their love for these cookies online, including requests for copycat recipes. The 10-count package is especially tempting for families who enjoy a sweet snack.
6. Private Selection Toffee Apple Pie — $11.99
Kroger takes classic apple pie up a notch with this richer Private Selection version. The combination of tender apples, buttery toffee flavor, and a crumbly topping gives it a little extra personality. It’s also one of the better-rated bakery desserts in this lineup. Serve it slightly warm with vanilla ice cream, and you’ve got an easy dessert for a cozy fall evening.
7. Kroger Caramel Apple Glazed Cake Donuts — Price Varies
Caramel apple season isn’t just for fairs and festivals. Kroger brings those familiar flavors into a soft cake donut with a sweet glaze. The apple-and-caramel combination makes these feel a little more special than everyday donuts. They’re definitely a sweet treat, but that’s part of the appeal. Look for the six-pack in the bakery section.
8. Kroger Pumpkin Glazed Cake Donuts — $3.69
Sometimes you just want a simple pumpkin donut with your morning coffee. These have a soft cake-donut texture, warm fall flavor, and a sugary glaze that adds plenty of sweetness. Reviews aren’t universally glowing, but the affordable six-pack makes them an easy seasonal option for pumpkin-spice fans who don’t want anything too fancy.
9. Bakery Fresh Apple Streusel Muffins — $5.00
There’s something comforting about an apple muffin with a sweet, crumbly topping. Kroger’s version delivers those familiar fall bakery flavors in a generous, individually portioned treat. The contrast between the soft muffin and streusel-style top is what makes these appealing. At $5 for four, they’re a convenient option for breakfast, brunch, or an afternoon snack.
10. Bakery Fresh Glazed Apple Fritters — $6.00
Apple fritters have an old-school bakery charm that’s hard to resist. Kroger’s version comes with a generous glaze and the familiar apple-cinnamon flavor that makes fritters such a comforting treat. They’re a little more rustic than regular donuts, which is part of their appeal. Customer opinions are mixed, but longtime apple-fritter lovers may still want to give them a try.
11. Bakery Fresh Goodness Apple Turnovers — $5.99
Think of these as a convenient alternative to slicing up an entire apple pie. Each turnover offers a sweet apple filling tucked inside a pastry shell, making it easy to grab one whenever a craving hits. They’re especially handy for quick breakfasts or after-dinner treats. Warm one slightly before serving to give it that fresh-from-the-bakery feel.
12. Private Selection Caramel Apple Cheesecake — $7.99
This cheesecake brings together two dessert favorites: creamy cheesecake and caramel apples. The smooth filling, sweet apple topping, and graham cracker crust make it a tempting alternative to traditional fall pies. It’s also a nice size for a smaller gathering. Early customer ratings have been very positive, although only a few shoppers have reviewed it so far.
