For those occasions that call for an elegant dessert option, look no further than Trader Joe's Pumpkin Chocolate Mousse Cake. This is a surprisingly simple cake that always makes a great impression, both visually and culinarily.

It's six layers of sweet delight – starting with a moist chocolate cake, then a rich, creamy pumpkin mousse, over and over. The top layer – pumpkin mousse – is adorned with designs of fall foliage and pumpkins. Viewed from any angle, this cake is quite striking. And tasted from any piece, it's just as striking. We think this Pumpkin Chocolate Mousse Cake, made exclusively for us by a renowned French bakery, is upscale enough to serve to "fancy" company. It's so delicious and so well-priced, though, that you may decide you want the "fancy" dessert on a random Tuesday after work. Maybe even before dinner. We think that's okay.

We're selling each 15.5 ounce Pumpkin Chocolate Mousse Cake for $6.99, every day. You'll find it in our freezers.
