"The hint of clove gives the cherry pie a delightful flavor of autumn. It is absolutely delicious!" -- Tony L., Washington
"Excellent to-die-for coconut flavor. Custard is not so pudding-like (as inferior any-kind-of custard pies are), and therefore even my 7-year-old actually gobbled it up. Crust is so light and flaky. -- Leslie T., Arlington
"OMG!!! It is soooo good! Being a vegan, I don't feel like I'm missing out on apple pie any more." -- Changamire, Washington
We usually make five or six types at a time so we can focus on what is seasonal and fresh. We use local ingredients, when available. Our crusts are an old southern type made in a similar style to puff dough, (meaning they are flaky and crispy). We use a 10" pie pan instead of a 9" so they produce 8 restaurant-size slices.
Traditional Key Lime filling sprinkled with coconut.
A surprisingly light custard pie filled with the finished shredded coconut, chocolate, and almonds.
Sour Cherry with Streusel Topping
Our special pie crust filled with Pennsylvania sour cherries in a light filling thickened with a mixture of apple pectin and tapioca starch. This pie is topped with a classic Austrian Streusel, which is made using flour, butter, cream, sugar and cinnamon.
Blackberry with a Hint of Lime (vegan)
Fresh Blackberries, a hint of lime, a touch of clove and a lattice top make this pie my favorite. As a child, I would look forward to late spring when my mom would take me to the blackberry patch near our house and we would pick as many as we could eat and carry.

Scottish Apple with Whiskey plumped raisins

This makes up the bulk of the filling in this pie, each pie has a handful of plumped raisins and a little steel cut oats in the streusel it is thickened slightly with additional apple pectin. This pie has a crumb top which contains butter, cream and steel cut oats.
Pecan, Maple, Belgian Chocolate Georgia pecans, Vermont maple syrup, and fine Belgian chocolate make this pie a United Nations of sorts.
