Pumpkin pie is a respected staple at the Thanksgiving table. The dessert represents tradition and evokes imagery of the harvest and of fall. Its base, pumpkin, is also an ever increasing fixation in the U.S. According to Nielsen, last year sales of pumpkin-flavored products increased by 13.5% – following 2012 when sales increased 12%. The round orange squash is hot and you can now find pumpkin EVERYTHING (i.e., Pumpkin spice e-cigarettes?! No, thanks.).
Stick to the basics of your traditional pumpkin pie, but this holiday season, try introducing a twist. These fun recipes, using Sara Lee Pumpkin Pie, are easy, and best of all have been specially paired with a recommended Riesling wine. Dessert + Wine? Now you have a #RieslingtoFeast.
