Below are four Trader Joe’s desserts under $6 to enjoy anytime.
Mini Chocolate Mousse Flowers
Price: $3.99
The mini chocolate mousse flowers deliver restaurant-quality mousse in pre-portioned individual floral designs. These velvety cakes come in layers with silky and delectable mousse. Plus, they are seasonal and cute to boot.
The portion size matters here. Each cup contains exactly enough for one satisfying dessert serving without tempting you to overeat or leaving partial servings that dry out in the refrigerator.
Jubilant Sprinkle Cookies
Price: $3.99
These small but festive jubilant sprinkle cookies are shaped like teeny-tiny ice cream cones, presents, rainbows and balloons. They pack a buttery crunch and even taste like birthday cake to truly make you feel like you are celebrating, even if it’s just with an after-work snack, complete with rainbow sprinkles.

Affogatos Vanilla Non-Dairy Frozen Desserts
Price: $4.49
This beautiful Italian dessert comes in a pack of two and will perk you up, partly because it’s delicious, and partly because it comes with coffee. With a 2-pack of Affogatos in your freezer, you’ll feel like you're in Rome with authentic rather than artificial flavors, reminiscent of gelato shops all over the world.
Dark Chocolate Covered Caramels
Price: $5.49
The dark chocolate-covered caramels layer a lightly salted, vanilla-tinged caramel inside a full-flavored dark chocolate coating. The combination plays off contrasting flavors: bitter chocolate elements bring out vanilla notes in the caramel, while the sweet and salty caramel heightens the chocolate's subtle fruity undertones.
These work beautifully on dessert boards, chopped over vanilla ice cream or simply enjoyed straight from the package. When you’re an adult, you don’t need an occasion or good behavior to get candy.
