And the Pie Contest winner is....

Thanksgiving is a time of hearty traditional meals with good friends and family.  It's also a time for pie baking and eating.  At The Healthy Grocer, we held our 2nd Annual Pie Bake Off.


In 2011, approximately 12 pies were voted on during a live tasting with you, our customers.  Customers had a chance to sample this year's pies and vote for their favorite.  The winning pie becomes the official Healthy Grocer Thanksgiving pie.  By voting, customers were entered to win a Thanksgiving pie from The Healthy Deli. 2011's winning pie was a Peanut Butter Pie. 

This year we had 8 pies to sample.  All pies were made with organic and all natural ingredients from The Healthy Grocer.

Pies included:
Pecan Pie (Non-Gluten, Low Glycemic & Vegan)
Pumpkin Cheesecake
Pumpkin Pie
Cranapple Fig Pie (Non-Gluten, Low Glycemic & Vegan)
Caramel Apple Pecan Pie (Non-Gluten)
Shoefly Pie
Mustikkapiiras (Finish Yogurt Blueberry Pie)
Salty Caramel Apple Pie (Non-Gluten)

This year's winner?   Pecan Pie (Non-Gluten, Low Glycemic & Vegan) by our Deli Manager Fern Wilson!
And congratulations to Opal from Shiremanstown who tasted, voted, and won a Pecan Pie for Thanksgiving!

This year's winning Pecan Pie will be available for sale at The Healthy Deli for your Thanksgiving dessert.  
 
While the winning pie's recipe will become a secret, we will be sharing the recipes of our other pies.
