FOODCostco’s Spring Lineup Has a Side Most People Miss6 min read

A Bakery Item That Combines Two Classics

The Costco bakery section has a new addition that merges two popular dessert formats into a single item: a Tiramisu Cheesecake priced at $22.99. The construction is specific — a graham and cocoa crust at the base, a cold brew cheesecake filling in the center, and a mascarpone whip topping finished with a dusting of cocoa powder. The combination draws directly from both tiramisu’s coffee and cocoa profile and the dense, creamy texture associated with New York-style cheesecake. What makes this notable from a product standpoint is the execution: the cold brew element in the filling connects it to tiramisu’s espresso base without requiring a separate layer, which keeps the structure clean. At Costco’s standard bakery sizing, the $22.99 price point reflects a large-format dessert designed to serve multiple people, making it a practical buy for gatherings or households that consume dessert regularly.

Crab Cakes That Hold Up Against Restaurant Versions

In the deli section, Costco is currently offering Crab Cakes with Lemon Slices at $21.99 per pound. The ingredient list is worth noting: real crab meat seasoned with dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, seafood seasoning, and fresh parsley. This is not the filler-heavy version common to many grocery store crab cakes, where breadcrumbs or surimi make up a large portion of the product. These are designed to cook either in a conventional oven or in an air fryer, which gives buyers flexibility depending on how they prefer the finished texture. The inclusion of lemon slices in the container is a practical touch — the acidity of lemon cuts through the richness of the crab and any butter or sauce served alongside. For a weeknight seafood option that doesn’t require significant prep work, this item competes well against restaurant pricing for a similar product.
