Now that the fall season has officially returned, pumpkin spice lovers are being treated to everything from cookies and cakes to popcorn snacks in a favorite autumn flavor—as well as unexpected new creations like Pumpkin Spice KD. Kraft Dinner is introducing a "spicy cheesy treat" inspired by the popular pumpkin spice latte that will come in a signature cup, complete with cinnamon spice topping.
Pumpkin Spice KD is made with the same classic KD cheese powder as ever yet it's enhanced with the comforting and warming flavors of fall spices like cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice and ginger. Appealing to pumpkin spice latte aficionados, Pumpkin Spice KD is dropping for just 1,000 Canadians as part of a Pumpkin Spice Boost Pack.
