Simo and Cicci recommend

To ensure the crostini are crispy, it is preferable to consume them immediately and not store them in the fridge. Indeed, the bread will inevitably become soggy. However, you can prepare the pumpkin cream in advance and store it in the fridge until you are ready to assemble your crostini.

You can replace the speck with prosciutto, salami, capocollo, pancetta or make a completely vegetarian version by omitting any type of cured meat.
