Trader Joe's Organic Midnight Moo Review: The Udderly Delicious Chocolate Syrup

Let’s be real: sometimes, you just need a chocolate fix, and Trader Joe’s Organic Midnight Moo is here to answer that call. This is the chocolate syrup that wants to be drizzled over ice cream, swirled into milk, and maybe—just maybe—eaten straight from the bottle (no judgment here). It’s your all-in-one ticket to satisfy those late-night sweet cravings.

Review

Trader Joe’s Organic Midnight Moo is a chocolate syrup made with organic cane sugar, cocoa, and a short list of other ingredients you can actually pronounce. It comes in an easy-to-squeeze 11-ounce bottle, perfect for decorating your desserts or spicing up your drinks. The color is deep and glossy, and the consistency is just right, not too runny, not too thick.

The first thing I noticed about this syrup is how rich and chocolatey it looks straight out of the bottle. One squeeze and I was basically a kid again, daydreaming about building the perfect ice cream sundae. The flavor is sweet and cocoa-forward, with a satisfying smoothness that hits all the right notes. It’s not bitter, but it’s not overly sugary either it’s that perfect middle ground that makes you want to pour it over everything.

I tried it the classic way first: drizzled generously over vanilla ice cream. It didn’t disappoint. It pooled beautifully on top and added that extra layer of sweet chocolate that makes ice cream feel a little more special. Then I swirled some into cold milk, and let me tell you, it’s a serious upgrade from the standard chocolate milk mix. Creamy, chocolaty, and just the right amount of sweetness.

Where Midnight Moo really shines, though, is its versatility. I’ve used it on pancakes, stirred it into hot coffee for an impromptu mocha, and even drizzled it on fruit (because that’s healthy, right?). Every time, it delivers.

One small heads-up: it’s sweet, so if you’re looking for something with a deep, dark chocolate vibe, this might not hit that mark. But for everyday sweet treats and that nostalgic chocolate syrup fix, it’s pretty spot-on.

Please note this product has shrunk from 20 ounces down to 15.8 ounces today. It also tastes slightly different.
