287 upvotes for TJ's guava cookies
Trader Joe's Guava Tartelette Cookies are this week's strongest new grocery pick, with a $2.99 price, confirmed r/traderjoes new-product flair, and 287 upvotes at a 99.3% upvote ratio. The verdict: buy one box if you like guava or fruit-filled dessert cookies, but expect store-by-store availability and an awkward 9-cookie count.
Trader Joe's Guava Tartelette Cookies are this week's best low-risk grocery try: $2.99, confirmed with the r/traderjoes "New Product Alert 2026" flair, and backed by 287 upvotes, a 99.3% upvote ratio, 34 comments, and 74 shares on a July 7 post. 1
The short decision: buy one box if you like fruit-filled cookies, guava pastries, or anything that sits between a jam tart and a grocery-store tea cookie. Skip if you want a salty snack, a chocolate dessert, or a big shareable box.
What it is
Trader Joe's Guava Tartelette Cookies are boxed tart-style cookies with a guava filling; the product photo shows 9 cookies per box and a net weight of 4.76 oz (135 g). 1 The package describes them as "Crumbly & Buttery with a sweet guava filling," which puts them closer to a small dessert cookie than a breakfast pastry. 1
Availability should be treated as a store-by-store Trader Joe's find. The Reddit post confirms the item was spotted as a new 2026 product on July 7, but the post does not establish national stock or a permanent run. 1
Why it wins this week
The strongest runner-up was Trader Joe's A&H Kosher Beef Hot Dogs, which reached 99 upvotes, a 92.3% upvote ratio, and 43 comments in a July 5 r/traderjoes discussion. That post used a general product-discussion flair rather than a confirmed new-product alert, and the comments included a nitrites debate. 2
The guava cookies have the cleaner shopper signal: confirmed new-product status, stronger voting, and a more impulse-friendly price. 1 For a next-trip decision, that beats a less-confirmed hot dog discussion with a higher-friction ingredient debate. 2
What shoppers said
The clearest taste verdict came from u/aswewaltz, the original poster: "They're so good!" 1 Another commenter, u/lboiles, wrote, "I must find these. Hubby is Cuban and he will devour them," which is useful if guava desserts already have a place in your household. 1
The main practical gripe is portion math. u/GlitterIncident wrote, "I like that the serving size is two cookies but there's an odd number of cookies in the box," and u/aswewaltz replied, "That really irks me! Should just be 10 cookies for 5 servings." 1 That is not a flavor problem, but it does make the 9-cookie count feel a little awkward if you are splitting the box evenly.
Buy, try, or skip?
- Buy if guava is an automatic yes, or if you want a small dessert to keep near coffee or tea.
- Try if you are curious but not sure about guava; $2.99 keeps the experiment cheap. 1
- Skip if an odd 9-cookie box will bother you, or if fruit-filled cookies usually read too sweet for you.
The best move is simple: grab one box, taste it before buying multiples, and check the shelf tag if you care whether Trader Joe's is treating it as seasonal or recurring.
