November is one of my favorite months! Not only are the Fall colors bright and beautiful, but this month also celebrates the best food holiday…Thanksgiving. So I thought it would be fun to share some of my favorite Pumpkin treats with all of you along with where you can go and get them.
Pumpkin Whoopie Pies! I am a huge fan of whoopie pies, but one of my all time favorites are the Pumpkin Whoopie Pies at Magnolia Bakery. The cakes are soft and pillowy and filled with delicious pumpkin cream cheese filling. And you don’t have to travel all the way to NYC, we are lucky enough here in Chicago to have our very own Magnolia Bakery downtown on Block 37. And I was lucky enough to introduce this delicious treat to my dear friend Kasey Larson of DBY Events…and yes, she loved it too!
Pumpkin Pie! I love pumpkin, but November is definitely the best time for Pumpkin Pie! Our friends at The Sugar Path in Geneva make the most beautiful pies that taste amazing! You can tell that these pies are made with love! They also make mini-pies, which are the perfect size for 2 people to share! Or maybe 1 person like me!
Pumpkin Scones! I have to travel all the way to New York to get my absolute favorite pumpkin treat. Alice’s Tea Cup makes the most delicious scones, and the pumpkin variety takes it to the next level…warm pumpkin scones, covered in a caramel glaze…my mouth is watering just thinking about them!
So get out there and enjoy the month of November and your favorite Pumpkin treats!
