And while we love to carve traditional jack-o’-lanterns out of pumpkins and gourds, they aren’t the only thing we’ll be carving this Halloween. Take inspiration from the original jack-o’-lanterns and carve up something non-traditional this season. Anything you can hollow out and carve shapes into is a good candidate—and bonus points if you can carve it into a tasty snack or fun display! We’ve rounded up a few of our favorite pumpkin carving alternatives to inspire your own Halloween carvings.
