Sugar pumpkins are smaller and more orange than other pumpkins. They may label as pie pumpkins. :)

Amanda Greensworth

My stores don't always have them labeled, is why I'm asking.

And I'm guessing the sugar pumpkin is the smaller ones? If not, how can you tell at the store?

Ok thank you. I wasn't sure if there were certain types that were for cooking.

Tabby Malloy 7 months ago

All pumpkins are edible. You could even use butternut squash in place of the pumpkin. But good to know that Sugar Pumpkin is the best tasting.

Does it need to be a certain type of pumpkin?

Amanda Greensworth 7 months ago

Lucy Hudnall

Any size, as long as it fits in the oven. 😉

Thanks!!! Can a large pumpkin be used for this? Or does it have to be the small ones?
