NHG: Pumpkin bark - what to do w/it

[Deleted]

So I did an Aldi run on my lunch hour to pick up some basics. I stumbled upon pumpkin bark. I've never seen it before but DH and I love anything pumpkin so I got a box. But I'm not really sure how to use it. Any ideas? Anybody seen anything on Pinterest (I'm at work and it's blocked).

Isn't it a candy? If so, you open that box, start a tv show, and then wonder what happened to it.

Really, it's just candy? Uh oh, I'm in trouble! I was thinking it was baking bark. Either way, I know it will be delish!

I would cover pretzels with it

*Points at sierra's pretzel idea*

I like this if it turns out to be a baking product instead of a candy.

Good idea! :Y:

I have no idea what it is or what you should do with it but now all I can think is "I really need some pumpkin bark" and I will likely wonder about it all day.

And yes, I think you should try the pretzel thing. Pretzels are great dipped in lots of stuff.

What's baking bark? Like cinnamon?

I'm assuming it's like almond bark or chocolate bark. The stuff you cover pretzels and riz crackers in at Christmas.
It tastes like chalk unless it's melted first.

Spice cake cubes would be great dipped in. Pretzels are an easy option.

Yeah, my mind first went to peppermint bark, but I'm guessing this is correct.

I have seen a lot of recipes for pumpkin bark candy, so I assumed that it was something that you ate as it was.
