The fall season often feels fleeting, so we love to take advantage of all the pumpkin-flavored sweets while they’re still on the menu. Pumpkin pie is an essential for fall gatherings, and even the worst Monday can be brightened up by a pumpkin pastry with your morning coffee.
These businesses serve pumpkin spice goodness in the form of pumpkin pie, pumpkin rolls, cupcakes, cookies, donuts and more. Here are just a few of the many places to get your fix in Delaware.
Thompson Island Brewing
It’s no secret that Dru Tevis whips up a great dessert! The SoDel pastry chef and Holiday Baking Championship winner is known for creative takes on classic sweets. At Thompson Island, you won’t find your grandmother’s pumpkin pie. Instead, Tevis presented a rich and indulgent pumpkin cream pie, which sold out over the weekend. In an Instagram post, Tevis hinted that the dessert may make a return due to its popularity. Plus, you’re sure to find some form of indulgent fall dessert from Tevis if you stop by Thompson Island this time of year, even if the pumpkin cream pie isn’t on the menu that day.
