27 Foodie Finds to Make August the Tastiest Yet

"It's the Summer of Rosé everything, and I want it all. Los Angeles-based chocolate company Compartés released a new roses and Rosé chocolate bar ($10) that's almost too pretty to eat. It's a pink white chocolate bar made with actual French Rosé wine and covered in edible crystallized rose petals. Normally I'd go for dark chocolate over white any day, but this is way too on trend to pass up." — Erin Cullum, assistant editor, Food

"Don't let the name fool you; Jacobsen Chili Lime Corn Seasoning ($9) is good on a lot more than buttered corn on the cob (though, of course, that is quite tasty). Mildly spicy, it's a special, summery way to dress up fruits and vegetables; I'm particularly fond of sprinkling it on avocado toast, sliced mango, and watermelon." — Nicole Perry, contributor, Food

"Specializing in artisan Rice Krispies treats, this mother-daughter duo in San Diego, CA is taking the classic childhood treat and making it all grown up. The Bliss and Baker Salted Caramel Crispies ($14 for 4) are soft, gooey, and finished with a sprinkle of 100 percent hand-harvested La Jolla Sea Salt, giving it that extra bit of magic." — Brandi Milloy, host and producer

"Being the resident bartender to my friends, I've always got a bottle or two rolling around in my trunk and a variety of shakers, muddlers, and mixers on hand at all times, but this simply gorgeous cocktail tote ($109) from W&P Design makes traveling a breeze. The secret to these bags? Nifty interior sleeves that hold your bottles in place while leaving lots of room for extras like bottle openers and jiggers. I can't wait to take this to the Hollywood Bowl all season long!" — Nicole Iizuka, senior producer

"The only thing more refreshing than a slice of fresh watermelon are these Watermelon Agave GoodPops ($6). Made with real watermelon juice and agave, they taste exactly as they sound. I've only snacked on them solo, but I can't wait to try them dunked in a salty margarita." — Anna Monette Roberts, editor, Food

"It's hard to top the convenience of AmazonFresh, the eretailer's answer to grocery shopping. The selection is high quality and much wider ranging than similar services, and the grocery prices are comparable to in store. The downside: at $299 for an annual membership, it doesn't come cheap. That said, it's worth noting that delivery is free with a $40 minimum order and that a Fresh membership includes all of Amazon Prime's benefits like streaming video and free two-day shipping. Amazon Prime members who make the switch receive a prorated refund of their annual Prime fee." — NP

"Yes, it's only August, and yes, pumpkin spice products have already hit shelves. We got the exclusive first taste of these new Pumpkin Spice Cheerios (in stores this month), and everyone agrees they taste like a bowl of Fall in the best way. They're like Honey Nut Cheerios with an autumnal twist thanks to pumpkin puree, cinnamon, and cloves." — EC

"Inspiralized blogger Ali Maffucci is coming out with a second cookbook release on Aug. 16 entitled Inspiralize Everything ($12, originally $22). It appears the veggie noodles trend isn't going anywhere, and I'm anxious to learn how to transform every possible veggie in my fridge into tasty noodles with the help of Ali's instructionals." — AMR

"I love cotton candy! So when I discovered Chocolate Story created my favorite carnival treat in fun fruity flavors ($4.50 each) like pineapple mango, kiwi watermelon, and lemon basil, I knew they'd be the perfect party favor for my bachelorette weekend in sunny Palm Springs. The cotton candy is soft, hand-packed fresh, and full of tropical flavor." — BLM

"These cheeky leopard-patterned pineapple-print Keds ($40, originally $55) feel just right for Summer. They're also available in a fun zebra-patterned watermelon print." — NP

"Cookie Pop, a cookie-dusted kettle corn, will become your next Kryptonite snack. Upon first taste, we called it "kettle corn on crack." In case you're wondering, real Oreos are used. It's a Walmart exclusive, but spoiler alert: a bag is included in every August POPSUGAR Must Have box this month!" — AMR

"I have already fallen in love with Dang Coconut Chips, and the snack company has launched a new product that I've been bingeing on nonstop: these onion chips ($7). They seriously hit every Funyuns-loving desire yet taste even better. I can't wait to put them on top of this Thanksgiving's green bean casserole!" — NI

"Yes, the wait list for these Sugarfina Rosé Gummy Bears ($9) is 12,500 people and counting, but the candy shop informed us that it plans to have another shipment arrive mid-August. We tried these gummies for ourselves, and tasters gave them a perfect five-star rating for its authentic flavor and perfect chew." — AMR

"Elevate your cocktail game with Shaker & Spoon ($50), an incredible artisanal subscription box that provides all of the ingredients (minus the alcohol) to host your own secret Prohibition supper club. The box crafts unique drinks that actually rival the best bars. Its syrups, shrubs, bitters, and tinctures are totally on point, and the recipes are easy enough that anyone can make them. I really loved the grapefruit-thyme Champagne cocktail that was included in my last box, and as always, I can't wait to see what's next." — NI

"Buck Wild Roasted Garlic Popcorn ($2) tastes like if you took garlic bread and buttered popcorn and rolled them into one snack. Ever so slightly sweet, like true roasted garlic, this popcorn is scarily addictive." — NP

"Williams-Sonoma recently added an outlet section to its website, and the findings do not disappoint. While there are beautiful pots and pans available at deeply discounted rates, there are also fun finds for practically nothing like these Novelty Mustache Ice Molds ($6 for 2)." — AMR

"Coffee is my lifeblood, and doughnuts are a close second. I cannot imagine a more enjoyable way to start my morning than with this stoneware doughnut mug ($12) — besides, of course, eating an actual doughnut." — EC

"My Summer sip of choice? Veuve's newest Champagne offering, Clicquot Rich ($65). Inspired by mixology and best served over ice, the drink can be customized with fresh fruits, vegetables, and/or herbs to create a unique Champagne cocktail." — BLM

"One look at Hayley Parker's blog, The Domestic Rebel, and you'll be inspired to bake immediately. Hayley combines old-school basics with helpful shortcuts like boxed cake mix and premade cookie dough — hence the name of her debut cookbook, Out of the Box Desserts ($15) — so even novice bakers can feel like pros. My eyes widened at the cover (Mint Cookie Overload Cake!), and I know where I'll be going to get easy yet impressive baking recipes when my sweet tooth strikes." — EC

"I typically stick to plain whole-fat yogurt, but when I'm craving something sweeter, Noosa ($3) is my go-to (the honey being my favorite). My two latest obsessions are bhakti chai, which is warmly spiced and just sweet enough, and pineapple jalapeño, which is tangy with a subtle kick." — NP

"This Üllo Wine Purifier ($80) is like the Brita but for wine. It simultaneously aerates the wine and removes sulfites, making it taste better. I tend to get a headache even from one glass of wine due to sulfites, so I can't wait to try this purifier out!" — AMR

"I recently discovered Delicate Estates' hilarious wine labels, and I'm obsessed. I wholeheartedly agree with the company's motto, 'cards are better when they're attached to alcohol,' and as someone who admittedly uses 'because Tuesday' as an excuse to chill out with a glass of Cabernet, I need the matching wine label in my life ($7). I've also found a new go-to site for gifts for my wine-loving friends since there are so many cheeky labels for every occasion." — EC

"Whether you prefer rich, dark, or smooth milk chocolate, these Nestlé Damak Fine Chocolate Bars With Pistachio ($4) are loaded with crisp, buttery Turkish nuts. These bars are so creamy and delicious that I've become a born-again pistachio fan!" — BLM

"Simply put, I'm obsessed with Hi-Chew Sours ($4). Super zesty and tart, these citrus chews (think bouncier Starburst) are about as true to life flavor-wise as candy can be." — NP

"Though I'm not going back to school, I have a new snack obsession and it's Justin's Honey Peanut Butter Blend With Banana Chips Snack Pack ($2). The crunchy not-so-sweet banana chips are the ideal accompaniment with the honey PB. You'll feel like a kid again." — AMR

"As someone who tries to eat a probiotic-rich diet, I typically start my day with a bottle of kombucha. For something a bit different, I'm loving Project Juice's Greenbiotic ($75 for 6, including shipping), which packs a vegan probiotic into a zingy citrus-cucumber-spinach green juice. Also of note from Project Juice: Turmeric Mylk (same price), a date-sweetened almond milk spiked with ginger, turmeric, and cardamom that's reminiscent of less-sweet chai." — NP

"Biting into one of these juicy California Tiger Figs is like pure, natural fig jam. I just can't get enough of them. It's unbelievable how sweet and plump they are! I love adding these to an easy Summer salad." — BLM
