When you cut the cotton candy pumpkin it has a very pale yellow colored pulp. And even the roasting the pumpkin did not change the color that much (see the pictures bellow):


However it produced a nice looking pumpkin pie, the filling had a nice texture to it:

However, as I said, the taste needed more “pumpkiness” to it. So if you ever wonder if the Cotton Candy Pumpkin is good for making pies, I would suggest other pumpkins. Unless of course you prefer the very mild taste of Cotton Candy Pumpkin.
