While I love summer and being home with my kids, I have to be honest- Fall is my favorite season. I love the crisp air, cozy blankets, colorful leaves, and of course pumpkin spice everything! This pumpkin-filled season is my favorite and I wouldn’t give it up for anything!
Today, I am excited to be teaming up with Starbucks® to give you some fall inspiration. I am excited to introduce you to these amazing Starbucks® Pumpkin Spice Caffè Latte K-Cup® pods (6 ct), which are available at Giant Eagle. They contain the perfect flavors to enjoy for during this season.
My favorite way to spend a fall morning or afternoon is on my back patio with a nice warm blanket, a warm cup of Pumpkin Spice Caffè Latte, and a sweet treat. This truly is the perfect combination for enjoying a fall day!
These Starbucks® Pumpkin Spice Caffè Latte K-Cup® Pods are so easy and delicious to prepare!
First, pour in the flavor packet into your cup.
Next, brew your K-cup® in your Keurig.
Stir and enjoy the amazing flavors!
Let me show how to set up this adorable fall beverage cart I created! First, set out a few fall decorations and a basket full of mugs!
Next, Set up your Keurig along with the Starbucks® Pumpkin Spice Caffè Latte K-Cup® pods. Don’t forget a sweet fall inspired treat!
My sweet treat of choice is a yummy pumpkin spice cupcake with a homemade cream cheese frosting. Pumpkin spice cupcakes topped with a cream cheese frosting is a perfect complement to a Pumpkin Spice Caffè Latte. Let me show you how to make them!
As a busy mom, I always make cupcakes the semi-homemade way by using a box of cake mix. I used a spice cake mix that included a box of pudding already in the mix! I need to take short cuts when I can, and honestly, I love boxed cake mix! Next, add a half of a can of pumpkin to the cake mix and follow the rest of the box instructions! I only used half of the can for my cupcakes for that subtle pumpkin flavor.
After baking let your cupcakes cool.
I love to top my semi-homemade cupcakes with a delicious homemade frosting! Today, I am sharing my homemade cream cheese frosting recipe.
Here is the Recipe!
- 1 – 8 oz. package of room temperature cream cheese
- 1/4 cup of room temperature butter
- 1 1/2 teaspoons of vanilla
- 3 – cups of powdered sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- ) In a large bowl beat together the cream cheese and butter until smooth and creamy.
- ) Stir in vanilla
- ) Stir in powdered sugar. Add in more powdered sugar if needed for the right consistency.
- ) Spread or pipe frosting on the cooled cupcakes.
- ) Top with a sprinkle of cinnamon
I love to use a piping bag when putting on my icing! It makes the cupcakes look so beautiful and piping icing could not be easier! I promise!
Add a sprinkle of cinnamon to the top!
These cupcakes are divine and so perfect with a cup of Starbucks® Pumpkin Spice Caffè Latte .
Before I go, I wanted to share with you a fall gift idea that is perfect for teachers, family or friends. It’s a Welcome to Fall gift basket. Start with a cute wicker basket and add a fall colored blanket. Next, add a cute coffee cup and box of Starbucks® Pumpkin Spice Caffè Latte K-Cup® pods (6 ct). Lastly, attach my fall FREE PRINTABLE gift tag!
You can find these items at Giant Eagle!
I hope I inspired you to curl up this fall with an amazing cup of Starbucks® Pumpkin Spice Caffè Latte and bake something sweet.
Pumpkin spice season is right around the corner and I can’t wait!

Okay, my mouth is literally WATERING after reading this post!
What a cool idea to have the “latte” part of the drink in a separate packet and then brew your coffee right into the cup! Starbucks, they’re geniuses, I tell ya!
Also, I relate to this line on a spiritual level: “My favorite way to spend a fall morning or afternoon is on my back patio with a nice warm blanket, a warm cup of Pumpkin Spice Caffè Latte, and a sweet treat.” There’s nothing better than that! 🙂
