Celebrate National Pie Day with a Slice of Advice
January, 23 2017
There’s the 4th of July. There’s Thanksgiving. And there’s today… January 23rd.
Pie lovers everywhere can rejoice because today is National Pie Day, also known as another delightful date that revolves around one of America’s most traditional treats.
We here at Lily & Lime are big fans of pie (it’s no surprise that our favorite happens to be key lime) and we’re excited to see that it’s slowly but surely making its way onto wedding dessert tables.
We thought today would be the perfect day to share some of our favorite pie-related tips, so we invite you to sit back and relax with a warm cup of coffee and a nice big slice of the dessert of honor.
What’s more irresistible than dessert? It’s dessert… In miniature form! Not only do mini pies look adorably fantastic in a sweet table display, but they are a great way to allow your guests to try more than one flavor. They can also serve as simple yet scrumptious wedding or bridal shower favors. Real Simple has five excellent suggestions for mini pies that can be made in a muffin tin!
Perhaps you’ve decided that pie is going to be your one and only wedding dessert. A fine choice, if we do say so ourselves! The next step is to plan out your dessert table design. HappyWedd has some great pie bar display suggestions to make this task seem much less daunting!
Although pie is perfectly perfect on its own, you may want to dress it up a bit if you plan to do a traditional “cake” cutting at your reception. Any topper meant for a wedding cake will work just as well sitting atop a pie. As always, Etsy is a treasure trove of pure dessert decor goodness.
Let them eat pie!
