With its flat form and buff color, it really does resemble a wheel of cheese. One popular type is the Long Island Cheese Pumpkin and is an heirloom variety. It’s apparently great as a pie pumpkin, but a little hard to find. When I do find a place selling them, I always buy one, but not for pie. I cut a “lid” at the top, scoop out the seeds, and put some butter and brown sugar or maple syrup inside, replace the lid, then bake it. Great served with a main course like ham or turkey, and the half moon slices look stunning on the dinner plates and are absolutely delicious! Will work for both decorating AND for something tasty.

Hi Nicole, thanks for visiting! I agree with you that they can be expensive… I find that our local Trader Joes is the most reasonable but I am not sure if they have those in Texas? I do faux when all else fails ;)!

Unfortunately where I live in Texas I never see the white pumpkins for sale. My favorite is the cinderella variety but they can be so darn expensive to buy.
