Costco
Costco Bakery Almond Danishes
Like a delicious hybrid between an almond croissant and a classic danish, this 4-count of baked treats pairs well with coffee in the morning. We'd even chow down on one as a sneaky midnight snack.

Costco
Kirkland Signature Cinnamon Rolls
Costco's in-house cinnamon rolls are absolutely insane. They simply don't shy away from adding icing, which is the best part! Heating one roll up makes the icing melt into the cinnamon-y folds perfectly. These definitely won't last long once you bring them home.

Costco
Kirkland Signature Tuxedo Chocolate Mousse Cake
Costco fans go totally crazy for this rich chocolate cake. With multiple layers of mousse, it also looks as good as it tastes. Because of its curb appeal, it's one of the best Costco bakery items to snag if you're hosting a get-together or going to one and need to bring something impressive.

Costco
Kirkland Signature Lemon Blueberry Loaf
Lemon and blueberry has got to be one of the best flavor combos out there. This loaf is sublime for morning snacking, especially when enjoyed alongside a hot coffee or tea. The added glaze makes it all the more addictive.

Costco
Kirkland Signature Pumpkin Cheesecake
This Costco cheesecake typically hits shelves around Thanksgiving since it leverages the oh-so tasty pumpkin. But it's not just cheesecake – this baby is actually topped with a heap of whipped cream and crust crumbles to make each bite feel like heaven.

Costco
Upper Crust Bakery Lemon Bites
Though this final pick is not part of the Kirkland Signature brand, it's still a fan-favorite at Costco. Ready to eat in convenient little bites, these cake-y treats balance sweet and tart so well. A must-have springtime dessert!
