Already starting to crave those Thanksgiving flavors? There’s no need to wait until turkey day because three of New York’s best sweets shops have dreamed up inventive Thanksgiving-themed desserts to tide you over until the holidays.

Bouchon Bakery: Thomas Keller’s Columbus Circle patisserie is taking those normally discarded pumpkin seeds and turning them into a sweet pumpkin seed brittle, one of a slew of gourd-infused items currently on offer there, from pumpkin cookies to pumpkin brioche. 10 Columbus Circle, 3rd Floor. Stay just upstairs at the Mandarin Oriental.

Kyotofu: This trendy Hell’s Kitchen dessert bar turns out creative pastries and cakes that just sound wrong — but somehow end up very, very right. The warm sweet potato-and-tofu cheesecake is tastier than any yam concoction likely to hit your T-day table. 705 Ninth Ave. Stay nearby at the Amsterdam Court.

Momofuku Milk Bar: The after-dinner extension of David Chang’s insanely popular food empire serves the trippiest soft-serve flavors they can dream up, but they may have outdone themselves with this month’s new flavor: stuffing. It’s just like Stove Top — except it’s ice cream. 207 2nd Ave. Stay nearby at Gem Hotel SoHo.
