# Pumpkin Cheesecake Lasagnas This Sweet Thanksgiving Dessert is Inspired by a Popular Italian Dish By Malika Renee Butss | Published 2015-11-24 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cheesecake-lasgna References: [stylist](http://www.stylist.co.uk/life/pumpkin-cheesecake-lasagne-what-dreams-are-made-of) & [delish](http://www.delish.com/cooking/a44856/pumpkin-cheesecake-lasagna/) Bringing a little Mediterranean culture to a well-known dessert, Pumpkin Cheesecake Lasagna is the perfect unconventional dish for a [non-traditional Thanksgiving celebration](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/thanksgiving-dining-experience). Juxtaposing Thanksgiving with an [iconic Italian staple](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/italian-heritage-month), Pumpkin Cheesecake Lasagna is a cross-cultural confection that requires minimal and easy-to-source ingredients. Making this modern meal is much like cooking the usual lasagna and requires a generous amount of layering of the ingredients. With a graham cracker base, this dessert includes layers of pumpkin cream, layers of [cheesecake](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tzatziki-cheesecake) and a final layer of caramel drizzle, mixed with pecan sprinkles. More about building a pudding rather than an imitation pasta dish, Pumpkin Cheesecake Lasagna is fairly easy to concoct and is considered a recipe the entire family can try to recreate. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 6.1/10 - Popularity: 79% | Activity: 95% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Food](https://www.trendhunter.com/food) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Cross-cultural Desserts:** Exploring the fusion of different culinary traditions to create unique and unexpected dessert experiences. - **Unconventional Thanksgiving Dishes:** Breaking away from traditional Thanksgiving foods to offer new and exciting options for holiday meals. - **Layered Desserts:** Emphasizing the appeal and creativity of desserts that incorporate multiple layers of flavors and textures. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Food and Beverage:** Opportunity for food manufacturers, restaurants, and dessert shops to create and market cross-cultural dessert options like Pumpkin Cheesecake Lasagna. - **Recipe and Cooking Platforms:** Platforms that offer innovative and unique recipes can feature and promote unconventional Thanksgiving dishes like Pumpkin Cheesecake Lasagna to attract users. - **Dessert Ingredients and Accessories:** Suppliers of ingredients and accessories for layered desserts can tap into the growing demand for creative dessert options like Pumpkin Cheesecake Lasagna. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Autumnal Restaurant Chain Cheesecakes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pumpkin-cookie-butter-cheesecake.md) - [Layered Lasagna-Inspired Desserts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chocolate-lasagna.md) - [Seasonal Butternut Squash Raviolis](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/butternut-squash-ravioli.md) - [Vegetarian Squash Lasagnas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/butternut-squash-italian-lasagna.md) - [Seasonal Gelato Pies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gelato-pies.md) - [Thanksgiving-Themed Cake Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/give-thanks-collection.md) - [Nutty Baklava Cheesecakes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/new-baklava-cheesecake.md) - [Chocolate Ravioli Desserts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chocolate-ravioli.md) - [Gourmet Thanksgiving Cakes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/thanksgiving-friendsgiving-cakes.md)
