— September 12, 2014 — Lifestyle
With Canada's Autumn celebration on its way this October, you're sure to love these Thanksgiving dessert ideas that celebrate everything we have to be thankful for.

From festive fall desserts to pumpkin pudding pastries, these holiday-themed recipes will make any celebration that much more enjoyable for the whole family. Whether looking to indulge or to satisfy specific diet restrictions, this list has something for everyone.

Memorable example from this cluster of Thanksgiving dessert ideas include a Pumpkin Praline Trifle from Bakers Royale and Vegan Thanksgiving ice cream by Sarah Nagel of Holistic Habits.

While Bakers Royale's parfait is made with rich layers of pumpkin and vanilla pudding and chocolate crumble, Sarah Nagel's vegan dessert is a diet-friendly ice cream that is both light and delicious.
