| - I have been following Piefection on Instagram for well over a year,and even though I only live a short 30-minute drive from the shop, I had never been. I read about today (10/3/15) being The Big Day when Piefection was serving samples of all their seasonal flavors, so my mom and I decided to have a date and go out there. The shop is small but adorable, decorated in pink, black, and white. A few small tables and chairs lined the exterior and the glass display cases showcased the gorgeous pies. A large blackboard hung on the wall behind the counter and listed all the flavors and prices. We were able to sample all the available flavors, which included two apple varieties (dutch and crumb, I believe), three pumpkin (sour cream, praline, and traditional), and salted caramel. I'm not a huge fan of apple pie, but they were both good. The traditional pumpkin was nice, but I didn't care for the sour cream. The two stand-outs were the pumpkin praline and salted caramel. We even purchased a whole of the former and a slice of the latter to bring home. While there we also split a slice of pecan which was good (the crust was amazing!) and bought individual chicken and green chile pot pies to enjoy at home (I tried the chicken and it's so good, if not a little underseasoned). Enjoy was the gal behind the counter and she was super friendly, and we also meet Cheryl (the owner) who stopped to talk with all the customers in the shop. I'm at once regretful and grateful that I don't live closer to this place, because I'd be there far too often. However, Mom and I already have a date to return next Saturday when they will have single slices of ALL the pies available for purchase. Can't wait!
