Illustrated hand stirring pumpkin in glowing syrup in a copper cauldron, with Dia de Muertos decor.

Render a large cauldron (a “tacho” / copper kettle) full of glowing syrup. • Inside the syrup, pumpkin wedges are slowly cooking: warm orange tones, softened edges, glistening with syrup. • Cinnamon sticks, cloves, maybe a piece of piloncillo melting, steam rising. • Warm ambient light, rich browns and amber hues. • Perhaps show hands lifting a wedge with a spoon, dripping syrup, giving sense of warmth, tradition. • Background: subtle altar elements, marigolds, maybe papel picado silhouette, to hint at Día de Muertos.
