The Nog Blog featuring Somethin' Pumpkin

If you like your pumpkin bouquet muted and leaning toward the tart, cheesy side, this loaf is for you.  I thought it would be a one two punch of flavors given the marbled appearance of the slice.  Instead, the flavor is consistent throughout and the colors are purely decorative.  The cake is moist and I would suggest a fork and plate rather than the guerilla style straight-from-the-container-to-my-mouth technique I employed.  I’m not completely sold on the authentic nature of this pumpkin product.  I question its sincerity as a celebration of the season, suspecting it to merely be taking advantage of those looking for the bright side in this most terrible, dreary time of year.  Still, I find my will to refrain from a third slice to be waning.

Pumpkin Créme Cheese Loaf Cake appears to fall under the umbrella of SUPERVALU Superstore’s non-signature brand offerings.  This particular (sliced) loaf cake was purchased at Shaw’s. It may or may not be found at the other stores SUPERVALU supplies which are conveniently listed at the bottom of their homepage.
