The Kirkland Signature Butter Cinnamon Sugar Loaf at Costco is flying off shelves after years of on-and-off appearances.
A new treat has landed at the Costco food court just in time for autumn: the Vanilla Apple Pie Sundae.
Selling for $2.99, the sundae consists of creamy vanilla soft serve ice cream, apple pie filling and crispy pieces of cinnamon-sprinkled pie crust.
The release of this fall menu item follows the seasonal Strawberry Shortcake Sundae, which landed in stores in June as a summer dessert.

"Costco food court never misses. $2.99 for an apple pie sundae is an absolute steal, I'm pulling up immediately," another added.
One Instagram user suggested: "Ok but what if you use a churro as a spoon to eat this? Asking for a friend."

Another commenter shared a similar sentiment, saying: "Need to serve a churro with it."
After roughly two years without its Twisted Churros, Costco announced in September that the cinnamon and sugar-dusted doughy treat would return for a limited time.

Although it has garnered mostly enthusiastic reviews on social media, there have been a few critiques of the Vanilla Apple Pie Sundae.
"Had it yesterday. Itโs missing something," a Facebook user commented, suggesting the addition of caramel sauce to take the sundae over the top.

Other social media users across multiple platforms agreed, saying the lack of caramel was disappointing.
"I am surprised thereโs no caramel added. Seems like a miss," an Instagram user said.
