Instagram Inspiration: Pumpkin Treats

Sink your sweet tooth into local pumpkin-flavored goodies

Pumpkin is everywhere. I am still not sure how we got to this point (that one Seattle coffee chain may be to blame), but pumpkin flavoring now seems to be synonymous with the fall season. Many Seattle restaurants have given into the trend, creating goodies in honor of the harvest fruit. Normally, I roll my eyes at the food’s excessive exploitation, but I’ve eaten my fair share of pumpkin doughnuts in the last month, and Molly Moon’s pumpkin clove ice cream is really, really yummy.

Despite my resiliant efforts, I’m starting to give in. Bring on the lattes, macaroons, and pies– but only if their from these delicious local 
chains. Supporting Seattle ___ makes succombing to the trend a little more bearable.
