Falls is synonymous with all things pumpkin; pumpkin coffee, pumpkin muffins… and most importantly pumpkin PIE!! So to celebrate the commencement of this glorious, pumpkin filled season, we’re listing off seven products here at Ambrosia that will more than satisfy all of your pumpkin cravings. Enjoy!
All About Pumpkins – Brit, Team Ambrosia
Nothing softens the “end of summer” blow quite like pumpkin season! In fact I’m quite sure that if you were to add pumpkin to almost any recipe, even the most foul of foods, I would likely consume it. And I feel as though I’m DEFINITELY not alone! These days it seems like everyone has been bitten by the “pumpkin fever bug”, so I thought I would indulge all of our pumpkin consumed brains with 7 pumpkin products here at Ambrosia!!!
7 Pumpkin Products
Pumpkin fruit (yes a fruit!!!), is packed with vitamins, minerals and all sorts of nutrient goodness, making it a very attractive ingredient in both our foods AND beauty products! Even the pumpkin seeds themselves offer up a hefty nutritional profile; loaded with zinc (boosts immunity and supports men’s’ health), protein and omega-3 fatty acids just to name a few! So try to incorporate a few of below items into your health OR beauty routine this fall!
Pumpkin Seed Butter
Pumpkin seed butter is a great, natural alternative to peanut butter! It’s nutrient dense (great source of protein, zinc and vitamin E), has a great nutty taste and free from sugars and fillers! We have a few varieties here at Ambroisa:
– Omega Nutrition
– New World
Pumpkin N’ Spice Granola Bar
Doesn’t this flavour sound absolutely delicious?! Nature’s Path uses real, organic pumpkin seeds and cinnamon in this bar, which is ALSO packed with whole grains and protein!
Organic Pumpkin Pie Squash
I LOVE these little guys?! You can use them to either make filling for a delicious pumpkin pie OR for a hearty, fall soup! BOTH are delicious options! Find them in our produce section!
Pacifica Nail Polish – Afterglow
Okay so aside from the fact that this nail polish orange, this product really has NOTHING to do with pumpkin! But I wanted to include this because it would make for the most perfect, Halloween manicure!
Pumpkin Spice Decaf Tea
Forget the calorie rich, sugary latte found at certain coffee stores – cough, cough – and opt for the Pumpkin Spice Decaf Tea from Stash! Blended with cinnamon, ginger and clove give this tea the most wonderful flavour of a tasty pumpkin pie!
Organic Pumpkin Pie Mix
Does this one even need an explanation?! Pumpkin pies are the BEST and Ambrosia carries a couple of different natural or organic pumpkin pie mix that will make your lie a TON easier come Thanksgiving! Farmer’s Market pumkin pie mix is made with all organic spices and sweetened with organic cane sugar!
Pumpkin Seeds
We carry BOTH roasted and salted pumpkin seed varieties in our Bulk department! Pumpkin seeds are great to sprinkle on top of your granola, cereal, baked goods… essentially ANYTHING! The options are endless… go crazy!
Will you be trying any of these pumpkin products?!
