The response for the 2nd Annual Brooklyn Pie Bake-Off Benefit was amazing!! We had over 33 entrants with over 65 total pies and a line out the door and around the corner. The Pies were beautiful and delicious, but the judges, Allison Kave of First Prize Pies, Kitty Greenwald of Eatsy, and Cathy Erway of the Art of Eating In, definitely had their work cut out for them.
And the winners...
Pie Entries Are Closed
Thanks for the overwhelming response. We are going to have to cap the entries to make the event manageable, but don’t worry there’s plenty of pie to go around… and always pie for next year!
Hope to see everyone there!
