Costco Kirkland Signature Nut and Seed Brittle Review

Super duper sweet, crunchy and a little nutty!

I’ve seen this Costco Kirkland Sgnature Nut and Seed Brittle for a while and decided to pick it up to review and try!

Taste

This isn’t anything special, it’s like candy coated pumpkin seeds, flax seeds, sesame seeds, cashews and pistachios. Not as good as I would have hoped. There’s tons of pumpkin and sesame seeds but not as many nuts as I’d like. To me it tasted more like a seed brittle and I found the candy coating a little too sweet. The sweetness overpowered the natural nut flavor. The seeds don’t have a ton of flavor to begin with so you mostly taste sugar and a slight nutty after-taste.

Cost

I paid $8.99 Canadian for this large Costco Kirkland Signature Nut and Seed Brittle.There’s about four large pieces of brittle in the container.

Convenience

Perfect for a quick snack and the resealable container keeps it fresh. You can also choose to freeze the nut and seed brittle. The Costco Kirkland Signature Nut and Seed Brittle has a best before date of just over a month from the date I purchased it. Another idea is that you could crumble this on top of your oatmeal or yogurt.

Nutrition

1/16th of the tray is 230 calories,16 grams of fat, 3 mg of sodium, three grams of fibre, seven grams of sugar, 17 grams of carbohydrates and seven grams of protein. The Costco Kirkland Signature Nut and Seed Brittle contains soy, milk and may contain oats, wheat, egg and barley, mustard (weird), sulfites, peanuts and other tree nuts.

This wasn’t my favorite Costco sweet treat. I was really hoping to like it a lot but I just didn’t. I’ve heard from others that they love it so it might just be my personal today. Also it was a little expensive and I could never eat as much as came in the container.

Taste: 6.5/10

Cost: 7/10

Convenience: 10/10

Nutrition: 4/10

What ingredients would be in your dream nut and seed brittle?

  1. When you say 1/16th of a tray do you mean 1/16th of the entire box? Or do you mean 1/16th of a single bar in the box. And I assume the box has 4 bars?

  2. I have looked at it for many years and not bought. Just last week I thought I’d try it.
    Wow!! It was awesome!! I loved it and am definately buying more. It is flavorful and sweet, probably not the best for the waist line, but hard to stop!!!

  3. We buy this all the time. Love it! Would really like to know how to make as I crave this during our winter months in Canada. Unfortunately, this is a seasonal treat with Costco. Darn you Costco for getting me hooked. Lol!

  6. I love this stuff. Only problem is that you can’t get it in California. I would love it if Costco brought this to the Bay Area. It definitely would sell out

  7. I don’t know what happened with me and this product. I first tried it a few years back and I LOVED it! I went for a few months without getting some and then decided to buy them again and I found I didn’t like them at all. Maybe I got a bad batch? I’ve stayed away since then.
