| When using decorative pastas (pumpkins, hearts, grape clusters), you don’t need to serve a full bowl of the special shapes. Use just 1/4 to 1/3 of the decorative shapes and fill the majority of the bowl with a standard “short cut” like elbows or small shells. The special shapes will actually stand out better against the regular pasta than they do all by themselves, especially if you mix and match pasta colors. And it’s easier on the budget—decorative pasta can costs five times or more what the elbows do.
