New ipie Filling: Apple Cranberry! ipie For The Holidays!

There is a new addition to the ipie family: Apple Cranberry!

The combination of tart apples, fresh cranberries, a light hand with the sugar and a hint of cinnamon and splash of lemon juice give
this filling a bright and delicious flavor.

The taste reminds me a lot of cherry pie but with more holiday spirit!

Need dessert for a dinner party, holiday gathering or even a hostess gift?

Don't stress, place your orders now -- I'm baking throughout the holiday season.

Flavors available include:

Classic Apple
A classic combination of tart apples, cinnamon, nutmeg and a bit of sugar

Caramel Apple
A squirt of homemade caramel syrup to the classic apple filling means sticky goodness!

Purely Pear
Pears, small amount of sugar and that's it

Honey Pear
Addition of artisan honey to the purely pear ipie

Apple Cranberry
Apples, fresh cranberries and cinnamon sugar

"Life is full of choices but today I will have one of each!" a true ipie fan!

We will be back at the Palo Alto farmers' market this Saturday then again in December.

This week we will have a single crust pumpkin ipie as well as the classic apple ipie available.

One of each??

We are also still be accepting orders for Thanksgiving.

Pumpkin ipie!

The feeling of fall is in the air! Halloween is this week and that means Thanksgiving is just around the corner.

"When the frost is on the punkin...."
(James Whitcomb Riley)

Ok, whatever!

It is pumpkin time and Pumpkin ipie is here!

A slightly more buttery crust than the traditional ipie with a spicy pumpkin custard filling.

Send me an email to reserve your ipies!

Thanks from the ipie Team!

"It is utterly insufficient to eat pie only twice a week as anyone who knows the secret of our strength as a nation........." New York Times 1902 editorial

Eat more pie!

Last Day at the P.A. Market 10/10!

"Good apple pies are a considerable part of our domestic happiness" Jane Austen

Come see us on our last day at the Palo Alto Farmers' Market on Saturday, October 10!

Our pear ipie was a bit hit last week so we will be back with pear as well as apple ipies.

And don't forget the cinnamon pinwheels! Or as one of my repeat customers calls them -- whale cookies -- but then he is under 5.....

Remember you can always reserve your ipies in advance by sending us an email. The link is to the right.

See you at the Market!

ipie with my little eye: See you 10/3 at the P.A. Market!

This week at the Palo Alto Farmers' Market we will have two ipie flavors to pick from -- apple and pear! Try both flavors!

I tinkered with all kinds of spices for my new pear filling but finally came back to purely pear -- locally grown Bartlett pears sprinkled with a bit of lemon juice and a small amount of sugar.

Of course we will have cinnamon pinwheels as well!

We had a fun time last week hearing other childhood names for these treats. My favorite so far has got to be "parties."

As explained to me by a lovely woman, "my mom would bake a pie then would sprinkle the dough scraps with cinnamon sugar, bake them and say "let's have a party!"

Party on pie people!

ipie at the Palo Alto Market 9/26!

Oh no! Only one ipie left!

Don't worry -- we will be at the Palo Alto Farmers' Market again this week.

This week we have a new flavor -- Caramel Apple!

This batch has a bit of sticky goodness to them so grab lots of napkins!

See you at the Market!

ipie In the News!

Yes, ipie had its formal debut at the P.A. Market last Saturday but I couldn't resist bringing them to Omnivore Books on Food
in S.F. for its pie tasting event last week.

It was a pie frenzy! So many great looking and great tasting pies! And such happy looks on all the faces consuming those pies or just hanging around observing all the pie eating.

You can read all about it in this short article by writer Dustin Plattdustino who covered the event for the examiner.com

Big Thanks from ipie!

Big thanks from the ipie team to all our customers and supporters at the Palo Alto Farmers' Market for your support today! Our organic apple ipies sold out in less than two hours. And the pinwheels didn't last long either!

We loved hearing the stories from our customers of their pie past! It is hard to compete with those memories but we will do our best to provide you with the tastiest ipies we can offer.




We had a lot of questions about upcoming flavors -- September is organic apple ipie month. In October, we will offer a caramel organic apple ipie. We are also testing a apple cranberry ipie as well as a caramel pear.

We welcome your feedback and flavor suggestions for our ipies. You can email us at the link to the right.

We will be back at the Market next week so please come see us again.

And remember, pie makes the world a better place!
