Too busy in the kitchen to whip up a pie? Order one of these—they’re so fresh and tasty, no one will know you didn’t make them yourself (prices don’t include shipping):

Carousel Cakes Pumpkin Cheese Pie: A lightly spiced pumpkin filling sits atop a layer of creamy New York cheesecake. We also loved the Apple Berry Crisp ($27, $37; carouselcakes.com).


Rowena’s Wonderful Almond Pound Cake is a moist, light classic without an overpowering nutty taste ($26; rowenas.com).

Bake Me a Wish Chocolate Mousse Torte Cake: A super-rich dose of Belgian chocolate will satisfy any choco addict ($40; bakemeawish.com; 5% of each order benefits Make-a-Wish).

Little Pie Company Sour Cream Apple Walnut Pie: Hand-sliced Granny Smiths topped with brown sugar, cinnamon and walnut streusel ($26; littlepiecompany.com).

    A spinach salad, especially one with ripe fall pears, is a welcome addition to the Thanksgiving table. The salad can be served in a large bowl as part of a buffet, or on individual salad plates alongside the main course.
  • Delicata Squash Soup with Parmesan Croutons
    Delicata squash, as its name implies, is a finely flavored, richly sweet winter squash with a nearly fibreless flesh. Cylindrical in shape, with elongated ridges, this squash has yellow to pale orange skin with green striations. Its beautiful yellow flesh and delicate flavor make it perfect for this puréed soup.
