National Pie Championships

The National Pie Championships: Rocky Mountain serves up some delicious competition.

Pie makers from around America and Canada gathered in Orlando, Florida for the 2013 National Pie Championships.  With amateur, professional and commercial participants, the competition was sure to be delicious. 

          

Rocky Mountain Pies brought 16 of their heavyweight contenders including their Sea Salt Caramel French Silk, Black Cherry Crumb, their unique Red, White and Blue Lattice, and Caramel Apple Crumb; these four pies, along with two others, were blue ribbon prize winners.

            

The competition was packed full of sweet treats and more kinds of pie than most people could imagine.  Following the pie competition, the nearby city of Celebration, Florida hosted its annual “never-ending pie buffet” – two days of a non-stop feeding frenzy, where pie manufacturers from across the country served the hungry crowd.  People came and shared their best-tasting pies, and most weren’t shy about asking for seconds.
