Pumpkin Latte
The days when it was hard to find a pumpkin latte in Israel are long gone. Three years ago, Pumpkin Latte arrived, settled in, and stayed, bringing joy and comfort, challenging stereotypes about aliyah and olim with ease and warmth. It even gave its name to a whole new wave of aliyah.
And for the past three challenging years, Pumpkin Latte has been a source of good news, reasons to hope, and quiet support. By the way, many of our volunteers are pumpkin olim themselves.
Dear Tikverim and Tikverot, we are so happy to be with you and part of your journey. Happy third anniversary! And as always, we wish you good health and long life — to 120 and beyond, together and individually.
And since feeding everyone is part of our mission, let’s go! After all, this is peak pumpkin season.
- Pumpkin and sweet potato soup
First up: soup. Nights are getting chilly. The perfect autumn combo? Pumpkin and Israel’s favourite veggie: sweet potato.

Second course: fish. We live by the sea, after all. So here’s our take on an Italian classic, made Israeli-style — ptitim instead of risotto rice, plus pumpkin, plus fish = love.

Third: dessert. The most classic tiramisu ever, handed down by nonnas from Friuli, but we’ve added pumpkin (we tested it: off-the-charts delicious!).
