Paula Deen Collection Maple Pumpkin Butter
Color: a nice, attractive golden orange – not nearly as dark as the last one of these that I tried
Fragrance: like a sweet pumpkin puree
Taste: I really enjoyed this one, and even though the maple wasn’t really distinct, if anything I think it served to add just a hint of sweetness and that ended up working really well. I was a little concerned just from the name that the maple flavor would overwhelm or even just compete with the pumpkin, but instead it actually complimented the flavor nicely.
Where to Find It: Not with the jellys, but actually over in the bakery section on one of the racks with all of the pre-made cakes and breads and stuff that always look really good, but end up tasting like sweetened cardboard.
Nice blog! Is your theme custom made or did you download it from somewhere? A theme like yours with a few simple tweeks would really make my blog shine. Please let me know where you got your design. Thank you

Thanks, Dedra! You can find links to where I found the theme at the bottom of the site – it’s mostly a theme called StudioPress Orange. I did make a few customizations for my specific preferences (sidebar, logo graphic, etc…), but nothing too complicated.
Good luck!

It’s funny because I remember coming across this stuff at Walmart way earlier in the year (springtime?) and thought it seemed out of place, and yet now that we’re actually in season there’s none to be found!
For what it’s worth, the store by me always used to stock this stuff over in the bakery on the racks with all of the cakes and breads and stuff, so that’s where I’ve been checking for it … although now it seems like that shelf is nothing but Paula Deen’s caramel sauce…

I also wanted to share this great tip that I received from Kristi via e-mail about a delicious sounding idea for this stuff on Thanksgiving that I never would’ve thought of! Sounds awesome, if anyone can ever find the stuff again…
Best of luck, and do feel free to post with what region of the country you’re from if you happen to find a few rogue jars of this sweet, sweet pumpkin nectar on your local Walmart’s shelves!

I have found some maple pumpkin butter recently at Wal-Mart. The first time I found it here recently I bought all they had which was 8 jars. This past weekend while out of town I ran across 5 more jars which I grabbed. My family loves it. Most of the Wal-Marts is not stocking any longer from what I was told. Good luck in finding any. I found mine in Ala and South Carolina.
