Origin: The last one in the case, nearly overlooked by the kind of snobby girl who was “helping” us, this lone truffle of both pumpkin and cheesecake origins almost never was…

The Experience: But thank goodness for an ever-perceptive yours truly, at least with regards to spotting the elusive pumpkin diamond in the rough, because WOW – was the other sales guy who was most definitely not snobby and actually rather cheerful right!  He cited that it was his all-time favorite, and in retrospect I heartily concur – its creamy sweetness was honestly what I had been hoping for last year when I first tried Godiva’s regular pumpkin truffles, but now I know that despite the cutesy packaging, these little orange gems from the display case are really where it’s at!

Teaser: I’m happy to report that Godiva has really stepped up their pumpkin game this year and as a result, I spent a lot more money than I was planning on specifically in regards to pumpkin-based sweets here recently!  Nevertheless, my financial loss is your blogging gain, so really, this is just my extremely long-winded way of saying, “Look forward to even more Godiva pumpkin treats coming next week!”
