"Enjoy these pumpkin-filled treats."
— Description[src]

Pumpkin Pasties were a wizarding food sold in Honeydukes[3] and by the Honeydukes Express trolley on the Hogwarts Express. They were similar to a Cornish pasty, but were filled with pumpkin instead.[2]

History

PAS Pumpkin Pastry

A plate of Pumpkin Pasties

Miranda Goshawk wrote in the Book of Spells that some students used the Hardening Charm to play tricks on other students, such turning a pumpkin pasty to the consistency of stone just before someone bit into it.[4]

Harry Potter tried them for the first time on the Hogwarts Express on 1 September 1991, at the start of his first year, when he famously impressed Ron Weasley by buying some of everything on the trolley.[2]

On 1 September 1994, Cho Chang ordered two from the food trolley.[5]

In 2010, Mrs Flume thought you couldn't go wrong with a Pumpkin Pasty. She baked them fresh in the morning for Honeydukes.[3]

In 2020, the Trolley Witch stated she had already made over six million Pumpkin Pasties and could turn them into bombs.[1]

Behind the scenes

    • Also in the video games, the pasties resemble actual miniature pumpkins instead of a pie. Some renditions also show them with a carved face as well.
