When it comes to the October 2023 food trends, it comes as no surprise that pumpkin spice has once again come out on top.
Though many dismissed it as a fad that would quickly fizzle out, pumpkin spice continues to be a beloved fall flavor by consumers and brands alike. However, the applications of pumpkin spice seasonings have certainly expanded in recent years, as the October 2023 food trends certainly highlight.
For instance, this year saw the San Diego-based company Chosen Foods debut a plant-based pumpkin spice caviar made from pure avocado oil. Other unique applications of the flavor include RED VINES' Pumpkin Spice Twists, Magic Spoon's low-carb Pumpkin Spice Cereal, Trader Joe's ready-to-bake Mini Pumpkin Ginger Scones, and Gay Lea's highly anticipated Pumpkin Spice Coconut Whipped Topping.
