Top 5 Reasons That Celebrations Call for Pie Instead of Cake

Pie (1 of 1)

I’m not a fan of cake. In all honesty there is only one cake in this world I ever truly loved and that is the one my grandmother used to make for me growing up. In my honest opinion, there isn’t a holiday or a celebration that calls for anything other than pie to make it complete. Ever since the Pilgrims settled our great nation we have been featuring pies at our celebrations! Not only are they more versatile, but they are definitely more delicious!  That’s why I’m featuring my top 5 reasons that celebrations call for pie instead of cake.

Top 5 Reasons That Celebrations Call for Pie Instead of Cake

Pie (2 of 2)

1. Presentation

Regardless of the celebration you can accent your favorite pie or top it off with fun toppings that make it fit for the theme. For the 4th of July we bought and EDWARDS® New York Style Cheesecake for $4.97 at Walmart and added red (raspberries), white (whipped topping) and blue (blueberries) to make it our Independence Day pie! It was the hit of the day because everyone loves cheesecake!  My favorite part? I didn’t have to make it and no one knew!

2. Variety

You can find such a wide variety of pies to meet any occasion.  Take an EDWARDS® Key Lime Pie to any summer picnic with the family and you have an instant tropical summer party hit on your hands.  During the summer months cakes are just too heavy and a Key Lime Pie, EDWARDS® Strawberry Crème Pie or EDWARDS® Lemon Meringue Pie (photo at top) just screams SUMMER!

3. Cost

I normally purchase the EDWARDS® Whole Pies because they are normally found for $4.97 at your local Walmart and that is much more reasonable than buying a cake!  I can even pick up a couple different flavors like EDWARDS® REESE’S PEANUT BUTTER CUP® Crème Pie (hubby’s favorite) or EDWARDS® Cookies and Crème Pie and still stay under the price point of a cake and besides how many options can one cake offer?

4. Ease

Whoot!  Not hot ovens needed.  What cake do you know of that doesn’t require an oven to cook? EDWARDS® Whole Pies go from freezer to fridge to belly.  Can’t get any easier than that!

5. DELICIOUSNESS

Any celebration can be made better with pie!  I get so sick of going to parties only to find cake with nasty frosting that has to be scraped off only to eat a dry, flavorless bunch of flour. Pies come in so many different varieties there is always something to please everyone!

    I agree. I always asked for a special pie instead of a birthday cake. I have tried Edwards and it is very good.
