Pretty amazing carved pumpkin I would say, the picture above was taken from the following website. If your into carving pumpkins around Halloween stop by and check out these amazing scary pumpkins and are truly works of art.

Being a professional chef for twenty some years I have carved plenty of pumpkins in my day. However none have looked this amazing! Each years when my wife and I carve our jack o lanterns we save the seeds and roast them in the oven, they make a tasty treat around Halloween. Of course it is important to have the right carving tools when carving your pumpkin at Halloween and remember to take your time and don’t rush yourself.

I like to take a printed piece of paper with my pumpkin pattern on it and then I simply “poke through” the pattern with an old pen to create an outline for my design. This works well and gives you a better idea of what to cut and where. Of course the most important part of carving a pumpkin is to have fun!
