Pumpkin Spice Latte Bombs
I am a huge fan of pumpkin spice! Every morning my day starts off with a pumpkin spice latte and usually ends with a little drink of Instant Pot Pumpkin Spiced Bourbon this time of year! I just can’t get enough of the delicious pumpkin flavor! One of the things that I loved last year was the hype of cocoa bombs and latte bombs, so I decided to create a pumpkin spice latte bomb so that I could have another great way to enjoy the flavors that I love during the fall.
You are absolutely going to love these Pumpkin Spice Latte Bombs! They are easy to make, the flavor is great, and it is the perfect gift idea to let someone know you are thinking about them! Once you make these you will find yourself making them over and over again!
How to Make Pumpkin Spice Latte Bombs
- Heat the pumpkin spice candy melts in a medium glass bowl in the microwave for 1 minute at 50% power. Stir well, and continue heating in 30 second intervals until the wafers are fully melted and smooth/creamy. Make sure not to overheat the candy melts, or they will become hard and chalky.
- Place the silicone sphere mold on a flat serving tray or baking sheet, and spoon approximately a tbsp of the melted candy wafers into the molds.
- Thoroughly coat the inside of the mold with a small silicone spatula, or the back of a spoon. Make sure to make the edges a little thicker, so that they don’t break when melding together. If the candy is pooled at the bottom, spread again to evenly coat all sides, or your sphere will be less circular, and more flat on the bottoms from the pooled candy. Place in the refrigerator for 3-5 minutes to set.
- Once hardened, remove from the refrigerator, and begin slowly pulling the mold away from the spheres on the sides first, and then lightly push from the bottom to remove them. Try to handle them as little as possible to avoid fingerprints, or melting. (To reduce fingerprint smudges, wear food safe gloves)
- Place a small plate in the microwave and heat for approximately 20-30 seconds. Place a sphere open side down onto the plate. Twist it a little to get the edges slightly melted, and then immediately flip back over and pour half of one packet of the Starbucks Via Instant Pumpkin Spice Latte mix into the sphere.
- Add 2 marshmallows,
- and then place another sphere on the plate and twist, and once the edges are slightly melted, place it on top of the filled sphere. You can twist them slightly to help meld them together. If you have any cracks that didn’t seal, heat a spoon in hot water, dry thoroughly, and use it to smooth around the seam.
- Repeat process to make 3 pumpkin spice latte bombs.
- Place the white candy melts in the microwave, and repeat step 1 to fully melt. Drizzle the white candy onto the pumpkin spice balls, and immediately add sprinkles. Let sit for 2-3 minutes.
- When you’re ready to drink your pumpkin spice latte bomb, heat 8oz of your desired milk in the microwave, or on the stovetop. Place your pumpkin spice latte bomb in a mug, and slowly pour the milk over it. Stir lightly to open the bomb and see the pumpkin spice latte explode. Continue stirring until the candy melts and the latte mix have melted, and enjoy!
Tips Tricks and FAQs
- If you want a stronger coffee flavor, you can add more of the Starbucks Via Instant Latte. If you do this you might want to omit the marshmallows.
- If you can’t find the pumpkin spice candy melts you can substitute them for the vanilla or salted caramel flavor.
- If the melting chocolate is difficult to work with after melting it, you can add just the smallest amount of shortening to the chocolate and mix it well.
- When you are making the latte bombs, be sure that the melting chocolate is even on the edges of the mold. This will make your assembly so much easier.
How long do Pumpkin Spice Latte Bombs last?
If you prefer to store these at room temperature they will last 2 weeks when kept in a cool dry place in an airtight container.
Fridge
If you would like them to last even longer you can place them in the fridge for up to 1 month. When doing this it might alter the color a bit of the latte bombs.
