Move over, pumpkin spice latte—COBS Bread just dropped its lineup of pumpkin pastries. We tried all three returning favourites: the Pumpkin Tart, the Pumpkin Scone and the Pumpkin Pie Danish, to discover our top pick.
Just like the vibrant colours of autumn, these desserts are available for a limited time. With three pastries to choose from, their comforting flavours make them the perfect way to celebrate fall; read on to learn which one we liked best.
Pumpkin Tart
When: September 17 to October 14, 2026
The Pumpkin Tart returns, putting a fresh spin on a classic fall dessert. With a smooth, spicy filling and buttery, golden crust, it's like eating a miniature pie—one you don't have to slice up and share.
The familiar flavours of pumpkin puree, autumn spices and a dollop of whipped cream make this a treat that feels like home, bringing back memories of Grandma's kitchen and pies cooling in the windowsill.
Pumpkin Scone
When: September 10 to November 11, 2026
This scone, topped with an abundance of cream cheese icing, makes a perfect breakfast or dessert to pair with a steaming cup of coffee. The caramel drizzle on top evokes the fairground taste of caramel apples, conjuring memories of carnival games, pumpkin patches, and midway rides.
Kids will adore the generous layer of frosting while adults will appreciate the subtler hints of cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, allspice and cloves for a treat that’s sure to be a crowd-pleaser at any fall function. You can also reheat them to fill your home with the enticing aromas of autumn, a scent that feels like a warm hug.
Pumpkin Pie Danish
When: September 10 to November 11, 2026
Out of the three products we tried, this was the standout, with a superb balance of flavours. It’s the ideal combination of a croissant and a pie: a flaky, golden Danish with pumpkin filling and a drizzle of icing on top. The tang of the cream cheese and light dusting of icing sugar provide hints of sweetness that complement the buttery pastry, making it an excellent choice for anyone who loves pumpkin pie but wants to shake things up.
If you’re looking for a delectable breakfast to serve on Thanksgiving or even a post-turkey treat, this Danish is a delight that you can enjoy any time of day.
