Pumpkin Spice Delights
Hey there, fellow food lovers! It’s that wonderful time of year again—pumpkin spice season is officially upon us! If you’re anything like most people in Memphis, you might have noticed your favorite coffee shops and bakeries rolling out their seasonal flavors earlier than ever. Starbucks kicked things off in August this year. While some may dive into pumpkin spice lattes as soon as they hit the menu, I prefer to hold off until after Labor Day. But once September arrives, I’m all in— indulging in everything pumpkin spice through Thanksgiving!
For those who share my love of pumpkin spice, I’ve compiled a list of eight delightful pumpkin spice treats from local Memphis bakeries and sweet shops that you absolutely must try!
