Halloween has been getting more popular in Japan these days. Cute pumpkin ornaments, wired Halloween costumes and witch dresses are found in many shops. Not only children but adults enjoy "trick or treat" atmosphere in this season.
The pumpkin sweets is the one of pleasures in Halloween. Japanese-style confectionery has buns with squash paste. Pumpkin puddings or pies are in Western cake shops.
Let me introduce one of the best pumpkin pie in Japan, please. This is from Kobe, famous for many delicious cake shops. This pie is sold only in October for Halloween. Moderately sweet pumpkin paste is wrapped in the pie crust, so people who usually don't eat sweet can enjoy it.
Here is the information of the confectionery.
