Known as the Cherpumple, this creation consists of three pies and three cakes made into one giant dessert. The Cherpumple is named in a similar way to the Turducken, in that it contains a cherry, pumpkin and apple pie. If you are trying to choose just one kind of pie to serve at Thanksgiving (how dare you), now you won't have to. Redditor K_Lobstah introduced the world to this particular pie cake creation. The bottom layer is an apple pie cooked into a cake, the middle a [cherry pie](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cherry-pie-poppers) also cooked into a cake (probably black forest) and the top layer is pumpkin (again cooked into a layer of cake). ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.3/10 - Popularity: 21% | Activity: 9% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Food](https://www.trendhunter.com/food) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Hybrid Dessert Creations:** The combination of traditional desserts, like pies and cakes, opens up opportunities for unique and innovative creations. - **Alternative Thanksgiving Offerings:** Offering unusual or unconventional desserts during Thanksgiving can provide a unique experience for guests and differentiate your business. - **Social Media-driven Trends:** The Cherpumple gained popularity through Reddit, showcasing the potential for social media to drive consumer interest in unique food products. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Food and Beverage:** Innovative dessert creations like the Cherpumple can attract customers seeking unique and unconventional culinary experiences. - **Hospitality and Event Planning:** Introducing alternative Thanksgiving offerings, such as the Cherpumple, can add a unique or unconventional element to events and dinners. - **Social Media:** Unique and eye-catching dessert creations can catch fire on social media, creating opportunities for food bloggers, influencers, and even businesses to gain exposure and attract customers. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Bite-Sized Pies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bite-sized-pie.md) - [Pie-Inspired Ice Creams](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pie-ice-creams.md) - [Thanksgiving Pecan Pizzas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pecan-pizza.md) - [Modernized Thanksgiving Pie Treats](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/crumbl-thanksgiving-pies.md) - [Two-Tier Pumpkin Cakes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/new-pumpkin-cake.md) - [Layered Crepes Cake Desserts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/crpes-cake.md) - [Pie Crust Cookies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pie-crust-cookies.md) - [Gourmet Thanksgiving Cakes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/thanksgiving-friendsgiving-cakes.md) - [Seasonal Pumpkin Hand Pies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pumpkin-cheesecake-fried-pie.md)
