As a Trader Joe\u2019s superfan, you know I\u2019m always there for the new product drops. It\u2019s like Christmas every time I step into a Trader Joe\u2019s and get to experience a plethora of different goodies for the first time.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
I\u2019ve barely gotten over the new September items<\/a>, let alone all the classic TJ fall items<\/a> I\u2019ve constantly been filling my cart with. That being said, we need to talk about Trader Joe\u2019s newest chocolate curiosity that is sure to pique your sweet-lovin\u2019 interest.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n This new Trader Joe\u2019s release is everything the chocolate-lover in you is absolutely craving. These ball-shaped, truffle-adjacent chocolate sweets are made of sweetened condensed milk, sugar, cream, cocoa, wheat flour, and cultured butter. These treats are almost always found on dessert tables in Brazil and are made specially in Portugal for Trader Joe\u2019s.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n These cake-like balls are covered in chocolate sprinkles and are perfect in or out of the freezer. Some have mentioned the perfection in texture when they\u2019re eaten straight out of the freezer \u2014 they stay soft while still maintaining the most desirable flavor. They can also be taken out of the freezer and thawed to room temperature, or warmed up and served with ice cream for a whole new experience.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n Keep in mind that while these are delicious, some fans have been complaining that they\u2019re not completely authentic. In a Reddit comment<\/a>, one user pointed out that these are \u201cmore like a ganache truffle made with semi-sweet chocolate,\u201d while the real dessert tastes more like milk chocolate with a noticeably chewier texture.\u00a0 While I loved them so much I had to go back for a couple more boxes, you might not be a huge fan of these if you\u2019re used to the more authentic version. <\/p>\nWhat Are Trader Joe\u2019s Brigadeiros?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
