So, the season is here! The season where pumpkin is suddenly inserted into everything. The pumpkin spice late is back. You walk into the grocery store and are met with towers of canned pumpkin, strategically placed next to the whipped cream. My pinterest board (as well of those of my friends) is full up with pumpkin cakes and cookies and carving methods. I feel like I should almost be capitalizing it. PUMPKIN!! Lets just scream it out. PUMPPPKINNN!!! Huzzah.

So, I am no different than all of you. I may be going a bit pumpkin overboard. You will be seeing a few posts from me using this glorious orange squash. There might even be more than one type of pumpkin cake coming at you. Too much? Just go with it. I have been slightly powerless to the displays of this delightful seasonal treat. They are everywhere.

This cake is super light and custardy, and should definitely satisfy an autumnal sweet tooth.

It goes really nicely with some whipped cream, and a sprinkle of cinnamon.
