ipie is a Good Egg!

We are very excited to announce that ipie is now a Good Egg!

This means we join a growing list of SF Bay Area food producers being given new online tools to reach people who love discovering new artisanal foods and who care about the quality of the food they eat.

In other words, you!

This leaves us time to do what we are good at which is baking! 

Good Eggs Inc., located in the Mission District of San Francisco and founded by Rob Spiro and Alon Salant, has developed both a single order system as well as a subscription service for local ipie fans. 

Want your ipies automatically baked for you every month or twice a month?  Now you can sign up for an ipie subscription service.  An ipie club -- how cool is that!

Ordering and pick up is easy!  Ordering is via our new Good Eggs webstore and can be accessed from our ipie website (ordering information to the right) as well.   And there are two pick up locations and three pick up times to choose from.

So whether you want to place single orders of ipies or want to set up a monthly ipie subscription --  click here to explore our Good Eggs webstore.

Thanks ipie fans!

ipie for strength! Food Blogger Bake Sale April 28!

click here to go to bake sale website!

It's that time of year again!  Time for the Food Blogger Bake Sale where 100% of the proceeds are donated to help end childhood hunger in America. 

The amazing folks at Share Our Strength use these proceeds for its No Kid Hungry movement by helping fund after school and summer food programs. 

This year we will be at Omnivore Books in San Francisco on Saturday, April 28 from 11-4.

Not only can you scoop up sweet treats, but Alice Medrich will be at Omnivore Books speaking about her new book, Sinfully Easy Delicious Desserts. 

And I'll have classic apple ipies ready for your enjoyment!  Pie for Strength! 

See you there!

ipies waiting for you!

spring (and ipie) is in the air!

The calendar may say it's February but the trees here in San Francisco are starting to leaf out and the daffodils are starting to pop up everywhere.

That must mean we are in the home stretch -- almost springtime!

As a baker who prefers to use locally grown, organic fruit, February-April is an in between time -- berries aren't ready yet and California apples and pears are pretty much done for the season.

As I typically do during the winter months, I keep busy testing new pie fillings as well as other pie related offerings that might make an appearance in my online shop as well as at the Palo Alto Farmers' Market when it reopens in May.

Until then, there is still lots of pie to eat -- I did find a good source of beautiful organic apples from Washington State so available for order now are classic apple ipies.

So as always, eat more pie!

2012 ipie-lution!

Did you overindulge during the holidays? The resolution to give up sweets doesn't last long for most people so how about resolve to eat smaller sweets? Like, maybe, an ipie!

Now that's a resolution that is easy to keep. And it might help that part of the proceeds each year from ipie sales are donated to the Alzheimer's Association.

While winter time means fewer fruits to choose from for pie baking -- having beautiful pears available this time of year makes it a bit easier to wait for the bounty of summer.

Just ripened Bartlett pears drizzled with a bit of local orange blossom honey topped by a flaky honey brushed crust. No wonder the pear honey ipie quickly became my best selling ipie at the Palo Alto Farmers' Market!

Hosting a party, meeting or other special event? Even though the market is now closed until May, you can still get your ipies! In addition to the pear honey, I also have classic apple ipie available as well as pinwheel cookies.

Local ipie fans can order their ipies by sending me an email me to discuss while fans out of the area can order via paypal. All ordering information is to the right.

And don't forget, eat more pie!

See you next season!

Looks like I won't be at the Palo Alto Farmers' Market again before it closes on 12/17 so see everyone next spring!

I'll still be baking during the off season and am ready to bake ipies for any of your special events or just to satisfy an ipie craving emergency!

Feel free to email me to discuss any special orders.

I will also be organizing a few ipie pop up shops for San Francisco and will post details on my facebook page.

And I'll be testing new fillings during the months leading up to the market so feel free to email me any suggestions.

If you live out of the SF Bay Area, you can still order your ipies. Order and shipping information is to the right of this post.

Thanks everyone!
