    Bulk Canned Pumpkin Suppliers

    Hey everyone. Looking for any info regarding bulk suppliers of canned pumpkin. Looking to purchase ~160lbs. of preservative/spice free canned pumpkin for some upcoming beers. Online searches have yielded poor results so any help is greatly appreciated.

    Thanks in advance

    Any restaurant food supplier (Sysco, United Foods, etc...) should be able to sell it to you. If you're in a microbrewery rather than a brewpub just have a local restaurant you're friends with order it for you. It usually comes in "ten cans" - 10 lb. cans that come six to a case. I've tried a couple of different brands over the years, but Libby's is by far the best (it makes the best pies too!). You may be able to by the 10 cans at a bulk food store like Sam's. But keep in mind that canned pumpkin is basically just a squash. It has very little flavor of it's own. Most of the flavor people associate with pumpkin pie comes from the spices.

    Libby's sells both a spiced & unspiced version of their pumpkin. As you mentioned, unspiced is the way to go.
