We’ll be baking up Kentucky Run For the Roses Pie, the traditional chocolate walnut bourbon dessert on Friday and Saturday. Come in to the Beacon St. bakery on Saturday May 5th donning your finest derby hat (and check out ours!!) to receive a free cutie pie! Here are some ideas to get you inspired!

We have welcomed strawberry rhubarb pie onto our menu, spring is officially here at last! Stop in for a tall cuppa cold brew iced coffee and check out our new treats. In addition to our strawberry rhubarb pie (available in all sizes, including cutie pies!) we are introducing our blueberry lemon cornmeal loaf and will continue serving our roasted asparagus, cherry tomato and smoked mozzarella tart. Now we will just be patiently waiting for peaches until we can really spoil you all.

We are also excited to announce we have extended our Sunday hours at the Somerville bakery to 4PM. Stop in at your leisure to check out what we’re baking up!

Things have finally slowed down a bit after our mad holiday rush and we are using our time to brainstorm some new creations for 2012. We are definitely enjoying taste testing our new recipes and we’d love for you to come by and let us know what you think too. If you’re part of the lunch crowd, or just craving something cheesy, look for more savory options at our Beacon Street location. We are now offering our bacon cheddar scallion biscuits daily, as well as introducing a new savory twice-baked brioche with cranberry mustard and pimiento cheese. Also look for individual portions of mac n cheese pie with bacon sage crumble and tiny freshly baked chicken pot pies, just a little something to get you through the winter (if it ever comes). As always, check our facebook or twitter for daily specials!

Also, CUTIE PIES

Need I say more? I’m so smitten with them. Tiny bite-sized pies, flavors rotate daily.

In other news, Super Bowl Sunday AKA JUNK FOOD DAY is coming up! Of course we’ll have something to contribute to your table — we’re thinking frito pie and 7-layer pie, and yes, there will be mallomars involved. Come see us this weekend!

Fa la la la laaa..

Post Thanksgiving thoughts

petsipies — Thu, 01 Dec 2011 14:05:41 +0000

First off, a great big THANKS to all who came and supported us in our Thanksgiving frenzy here at the bakery. We loved seeing you all and, even more, getting to be part of your holiday dessert table…And breakfast table too we hope–I don’t know about you but I definitely enjoyed a nice fat slice of cherry pie on Friday morning.

Another thanks goes out to all the Petsi-Piers who worked their butts off all week long, congratulations on making a 12 hour work day feel like an easy day. All the fun starts after the 14th hour anyway.. You were all so very awesome and made the week simply breeze on by so much that I’m already looking forward to next year?

Looking forward, the next set of holidays is quickly approaching. We are currently dreaming up a delicious winter menu. Thinking about plum gingerbread and blackberry & blood orange galette. mmm. Find the menu here soon!

One last thing! Have you seen our all star intern Teeny on Huffington Post? She is wrapping up her Somerville leg of her Tour of Pie and, while sad to see her go, we are so glad to have met her. Go check out her story and donate if you can, she’s got a long haul ahead.

Getting Ready for Giving Thanks Day!

Thanksgiving. New Website!

petsipies — Fri, 11 Nov 2011 12:29:14 +0000

As I type, our undercover web designer extraordinaire Alison is attempting to go live, with the new Petsi Pies website. Boy are we excited and you should be too, here’s why: you can order your Thanksgiving pies online! As we get closer to the holiday it will become harder and harder to reach the bakery by phone due to the high volume of calls. If you are having trouble getting through or are simply too web savvy to bother, please order your holiday pies online here. Please note that all orders must be submitted 7pm Friday, Nov. 18th so we have ample time to prepare for the marathon ahead.

Please click around through the new website and let us know if there’s any content we’ve left out that you’d like to see. We also have a facebook page now, so you know what to do. Look out digital land, there’s a whole lotta pie comin’ atcha!
