Sugar Pumpkin

EverydayFresh

Sugar pumpkin is a compact, sweet-fleshed winter squash variety specifically cultivated for cooking rather than decorative use. Distinguished from larger carving pumpkins by its dense texture and concentrated natural sweetness, it serves as the preferred choice for homemade pumpkin puree, soups, and baked goods. This nutrient-dense gourd provides substantial vitamin A from beta-carotene and vitamin C, with roasting or steaming enhancing its caramelized flavor profile while preserving its low-calorie integrity.
