Although there are many pie lovers still baking their own pies, we can still enjoy that feeling and not have to actually make a pie from start to finish. It's putting the finishing touches on a pie that can make it our very own. Members of the American Pie Council are helping us do that. We can buy a fresh, frozen pie that we bake in the oven on our own. We can buy a crust and make the filling on our own or we can even buy an entire pie kit and put it together on our own.
Pie can fit into our current, fast paced lifestyles.
With the advent of the gourmet pie, pie is fulfilling the needs of those who desire an upscale dessert. Professional pie chefs or your local supermarket bakeries have freshly baked pies available to fulfill your desire for a pie that will knock the socks off anyone you are trying to impress. Whether you love the original pies that Grandma used to bake, a kid with a desire for a Cookies and Cream pie or anyone who wants to impress their boss, no matter what kind of lifestyle you lead, there is pie out there that can fulfill your needs. American Pie Council members, Bonert's Slice of Pie , Edward's Baking Division, Mrs. Smith's Bakeries, Rich Products Corporation, Sara Lee Bakery, and The BamaPie Kitchen will be donating pies to their local foodbanks through America's Second Harvest to celebrate National Pie Day.
