Thanks.  I have been these both in seed (Burpee) & at Vons here in California.

Try 'Cinderella' or 'Rouge d'Etampes' which are different names for the 
same variety. These make wonderful pies, and grow in a squat bulbous 
shape, just like the pictures of Cinderella's Coach. The walls are 
extremely thick, in a well grown pumpkin, up to 3 or even 3.5 inches 
thick in some cases, so you get a LOT of pumpkin pulp. Because the 
walls are so thick, they aren't good for carving, but excellent for 
eating.

My partner and I grow these every year, along with several other 
varieties, including one with 'naked' seeds for quick pumpkin seed 
roasting.
