Fairytale Pumpkins: Halloween Meets Cinderella
Posted on October 26, 2008
In the Halloween season of 2005 it was white ghost pumpkins that were getting all the pumpkin buzz. This year the buzz seems to be going to fairytale pumpkins. You can photos of them here.
Fairytale pumpkins are described as having a Cinderella shape and a buckskin color. They are are flatter and heavier than other pumpkins. In addition to being decorative many pumpkin sites say they are also great for baking. Whole Foods is one of the stores that has been carrying fairytale pumpkins this year. You can find the fairytale pumpkin seeds here from the Eden Brothers.
Here's a video of a chef making fairytale pumpkin soup from The Rose Table.
