FAQ

Should a dump cake be refrigerated?

Does pumpkin dump cake have to be refrigerated?

Should Pumpkin Dump Cake be refrigerated? Like other cakes, your Pumpkin Dump Cake doesn’t have to be refrigerated. Now if you had a filling in it like a peach cobbler, then I would recommend refrigerating a dessert like that.

Is pumpkin puree the same as canned pumpkin?

First and foremost: what is pumpkin puree? Canned pumpkin and pumpkin puree are the same thing. These terms are often used interchangeably in recipes, though you may also see the term solid-pack pumpkin. All these terms mean 100% steamed and pureed pumpkin—no extras, no add-ins—not even in the canned variety.

Is dump cake supposed to be gooey?
