Shopping

It may still feel plenty warm outside, but fall has already arrived inside H-E-B stores across Northwest Houston.

Available now for a limited time, H-E-B has rolled out hundreds of fall-inspired H-E-B brand products across every department. The seasonal collection stretches from coffee and breakfast foods to snacks, household products, décor, Texas-grown pumpkins, Halloween candy and plenty of options for football weekends.

Pumpkin spice starts the season

Coffee drinkers can find Café Ole by H-E-B Pumpkin Spice Latte, a rich and creamy fall beverage that can be served hot or over ice. H-E-B is also offering a medium-roast Café Ole by H-E-B Pumpkin Spice coffee blending nutmeg, vanilla and cinnamon.

Breakfast options include H-E-B Fully Cooked Maple Breakfast Sausage Rolls, Pumpkin Spice instant oatmeal and Pumpkin Spice waffles.

Some of the more unexpected seasonal twists are showing up in the snack aisle.

H-E-B Creamy Creations Caramel Apple Sherbet blends sour candy pieces with a caramel swirl, while the H-E-B Cowboy Cookie combines pecans, oats and brown butter. H-E-B Cornbread Stuffing Potato Chips bring the familiar flavors of Thanksgiving stuffing into a crunchy snack.

Fall versions of H-E-B baking mixes, cookies, bagels, bread and granola are also appearing on shelves. Even pets can join in with Heritage Ranch by H-E-B Baked Dog Snacks in pumpkin and apple cinnamon flavors.

Fall moves into the household aisles, too

H-E-B is carrying H-E-B Dish Soap, H-E-B Flavor Favorites candles and H-E-B Texas Tough trash bags infused with warm, inviting fall scents.

H-E-B Paper Plates and Destination Holiday wall décor feature fun fall prints for entertaining, while pumpkin-print storage bags are available in both gallon and quart sizes for leftovers, snacks or a festive fall lunch.

Stores are also carrying a wide selection of H-E-B Texas Roots pumpkins grown in the Lone Star State, giving Northwest Houston families an easy way to bring a little fall to the front porch.

Football season gets its own menu

With football season underway, H-E-B is also stocking plenty of game-day food.

Options include party trays and Meal Simple by H-E-B Tex-Mex Queso with Brisket, along with grilling essentials such as H-E-B Prime 1 Cowboy Burgers and H-E-B Mi Tienda Beef Fajitas.

Halloween is already creeping onto shelves

H-E-B says shoppers can expect more seasonal products throughout the coming months, and the Halloween lineup is already arriving.

The Once Upon a Treat by H-E-B Halloween collection includes Dark Chocolate Green Goo Truffles filled with ghoulish green caramel, Jack O'Lantern-shaped milk chocolates with caramel apple filling and the sweet-and-salty Haunted Candy Corn Maze Snack Mix.

There is also a Zombie-licious Gummy Mix with brain-, finger-, eyeball- and bone-shaped gummies, along with chocolate-dipped gummy bears, cotton candy treat packs and a porch-ready cauldron filled with spider gummy treat packs available only at H-E-B.

Destination Holiday Halloween and Día de los Muertos décor are also available in stores.

In November, H-E-B says stores will begin transitioning their seasonal products in time for the holiday season. The retailer’s limited-time offerings change with the seasons, with new products expected throughout the year.
