Happy Baking!

Our pie making classes have been a huge hit - our 'students' have been so amazed and proud of the beautiful pies they are able to make with a few pointers from PPC Pastry Chef Kate and Owner Sarah.  One of our 'graduates' told me that she has made 4 pies since participating in our class a couple of weeks ago, and is now becoming known as the incredible pie maker in her circle of friends! 

A gift certificate to a pie making class would be an excellent gift for the baker or foodie in your life!  We have lovely gift certificates just for our classes, so stop by our restaurant to pick one up!  We are even planning a special kids class!

Can't believe it is already time to start working on our Thanksgiving menu.  I vividly remember last Thanksgiving - we baked around the clock for days to fill all of our orders for sweet pies.  This year we are in our shiny new kitchen and have a full time pastry chef (!), so we are ready to supply Portland will all the pie it can handle.  Today I ordered 300 pyrex pie plates...so bring it on!

We are still fine tuning our menu, but I know it will include a Sweet Potato Pecan pie inspired by a delicious pie I ate while in New Orleans recently.  We are also thinking Pumpkin with Ginger Struesel, Apple Cranberry, Pear Hazelnut Crumb, and some other surprises...so stay tuned, menu will be posted soon!
