Hawke's Bay Butternut Pumpkin 

There's a reason Hawke's Bay is New Zealand's premier produce region, and these stunning Butternut pumpkins are proof of exactly that. Nurtured in the region's famously fertile soils and long, sun-drenched growing days, each pumpkin develops an exceptional depth of flavour that you simply can't replicate elsewhere.

These are big, beautiful specimens — thick-walled with a gorgeous pale tan skin and a vibrant, deep-orange flesh that roasts to a silky, caramelised perfection. Whether you're making a velvety soup, a hearty roast, a rustic risotto, or a warming curry, these pumpkins deliver the kind of rich, nutty sweetness that makes every meal feel like proper home cooking.

Why you'll love them:

• Great size — generously portioned for family meals, batch cooking, and sharing
• Superior flavour — sweet, dense flesh with that signature nutty, buttery taste
• Grown in Hawke's Bay — benefiting from the region's ideal climate and fertile volcanic soils
• Versatile in the kitchen — perfect for roasting, soups, salads, pies, mashes, and more
• Long shelf life — store in a cool, dry place and enjoy them for weeks to come

Grab one (or a few) while they're in season — great produce like this doesn't hang around.
