There are a lot of pumpkin spice opinions out there. Some folks hate it, and think it's basic. Some people, namely fall lovers, love it, and some people think it's basic and love it anyway. There are also lots of opinions on when to even indulge in pumpkin spice discourse. Some think it has to be fall, but some, like us, think it's never too early to talk about pumpkin spice. Pumpkin spice is in a lot of things, like the classic lattes and candles. But it's in a lot of other stuff, too.
Pumpkin spice slime is a thing. Whoddathunk? But it gets even weirder. Pumpkin spice is in a lot of unexpected products, either as a scent or as a flavor. Some items sound unexpectedly amazing, like pumpkin spice hard seltzer, while others are far out (hello, pumpkin spice deodorant!). We rounded up 20 of the most interesting or yummy off-the-radar pumpkin spice products we could find so we could all arm ourselves in the best and pumpkiniest way possible this fall.
Pumpkin Spice Almonds
Pumpkin spice almonds are the perfect combination of healthy protein and fall love, and we don't think it can get better than that (aside from cake or something). It's not an obvious combo, but we are willing to give it a try.
Pumpkin Spice Almonds ($4, Target)
Pumpkin Spice Kit Kat
Kit Kat chocolate bars come in lots of flavors now, and pumpkin spice is one of them. It's hard to imagine it, but from the look of the package it seems like the chocolate is pumpkin-flavored and that sounds delicious.
Pumpkin Spice Kit Kat ($3, Walmart)
Pumpkin Spice 'Mallows'
Going with the pumpkin spice food theme, we found these pumpkin spice marshmallow treats. Marshmallows are basically all sugar, but seasoning them with pumpkin spice elevates and fall-i-fies an already great treat.
Pumpkin Spice "Mallows" ($2, Instacart)
Pumpkin Pop-Tarts
Pop-Tarts already come in an assortment of different flavors so it's only natural for the brand to have made a pumpkin-flavored Pop-Tart. It's the perfect fall breakfast or snack on the go.
Pumpkin Pop-Tarts ($4, Walmart)
Pumpkin Spice Hot Cocoa
When people think of hot cocoa, pumpkin spice might not come to mind. Isn't it reserved for lattes? Not anymore, now hot chocolate is getting in on the pumpkin spice drink fun and we're here for it.
Pumpkin Spice Hot Cocoa (Swiss Miss)
Pumpkin Spice Kettle Corn
Popcorn used to be plain, but brands like Boomchicapop have gotten super creative with popcorn seasoning. It's a way to have a healthier snack but still have the taste of more indulgent treats. Pumpkin spice kettle corn, which is coming soon to the brand, does that.
Pumpkin Spice Kettle Corn (coming soon!)
Pumpkin Spice Lean Shake
We bet tons of folks don't know that there are muscle and "lean" shakes that are pumpkin spice flavored. Now they will. GNC has a Lean Shake that's pumpkin spice flavored because even gym goers deserve to have the fall taste after their workout.
Pumpkin Spice Lean Shake ($40, GNC)
Pumpkin Spice Bath Bomb
Pumpkin spice is, most of the time, a flavor or something edible, after all, pumpkin is a food. But now the aroma is available in non-edible things, too. Like, for example, a bath bomb. Relax surrounded by the scent of pumpkin spice.
Pumpkin Spice Bath Bomb ($25, Lotion Fast)
Pumpkin Spice Hand Lotion
OK, pumpkin-spice bath bombs may seem like a natural use of the scent. But what about hand-lotion? Yes, it's true. Pumpkin spice hand lotion is a thing and it smells great but may just want to make the wearer lick their hands.
Pumpkin Spice Hand Lotion ($9, Desert Essence)
Pumpkin Spice Flavor Dental Dog Treats
Humans aren't the only creatures who can enjoy the phenomenon that is pumpkin spice and pumpkin spice flavoring. Now dogs can do in the form of treats. These pumpkin spice flavored dental dog treats can be a fun treat for pups. Plus, the treats help clean their teeth.
Pumpkin Spice Flavor Dental Dog Treats ($17, Chewy)
Pumpkin Chai Poo-Pourri
Even poop can smell like pumpkin spice! OK maybe not the poop itself but the room can smell like pumpkin after the deed is done with the post-poop aroma pumpkin spice smelling Poo-Pourri.
Pumpkin Chai Poo-Pourri ($10, Poo-Pourri)
Pumpkin Hand Sanitizer
Hand sanitizer gave pumpkin spice a run for its money as one of the most popular consumer products of 2020. Some really smart person or group of people at Bath and Bodyworks had the incredible idea to combine the two products into pumpkin spice sanitizer.
Pumpkin Hand Sanitizer ($8, Bed, Bath and Beyond)
Pumpkin Spice Bread
There's still more food with a seasonal dash of pumpkin spice on our list! Cinnamon bread is amazing as is, but now it's available in the pumpkin spice flavor during the fall season and our mouths are watering.
Pumpkin Spice Bread ($4, Mercato)
Pumpkin Spice Cream Cheese
For the bagel and/or cream cheese lovers out there, rejoice! The famous Philadelphia Cream Cheese company has created a pumpkin spice flavor of cream cheese. It's the perfect touch to toast or bagels, or even frosting on cupcakes.
Pumpkin Spice Cream Cheese ($4, GIANT)
Pumpkin Spice Deodorant
Now this is kinda where people may say that the trend has gotten out of control, but would they buy it? Enter pumpkin spice deodorant. Because if someone wants their pits to smell like a latte in the fall, then that is their right.
Pumpkin Spice Deodorant ($12, Native)
Pumpkin Spice Creamer
This might be the closest thing to a "basic" pumpkin spice product on this list, but we still think it's worth mentioning. It's a pumpkin spice creamer to have the flavor of the season in every hot drink.
Pumpkin Spice Creamer ($3, Target)
Pumpkin Spice Hard Seltzer
What happens when there is two basic trends get together? Amazingness that's what. Pumpkin spice hard seltzer from Vibe seltzer is totally real and it's coming this fall. Get excited.
Pumpkin Spice Hard Seltzer (Coming soon, Vive)
Pumpkin Spice Face Mask
Remember when we said that pumpkin spice deodorant was weird? We now give you the next level of fall weirdness and that is a pumpkin spice face mask. It's the literal epitome of both 2020 weirdness and making the best of a really weird and sometimes uncomfortable situation.
Pumpkin Spice Face Mask ($15, Bucktee)
Pumpkin Latte Body Mist
Why just eat pumpkin spice flavored things or drink pumpkin spice flavored drinks when one could BE a pumpkin spice thing, or human. Spritz a bit of Bath & Body Works' Pumpkin Latte Body Mist and be the hottest latte around.
Pumpkin Latte Body Mist ($16, Bath & Body Works)
Pumpkin Spice Scented Toilet Paper
We saved the best pumpkin spice product we could find for last and that is a roll of pumpkin spice scented toiler paper, which, according to the reviews is totally real. Give it as a gag gift or just make a bum smell like fall. No judgement here.
Pumpkin Spice Scented Toilet Paper ($7, Amazon)
