Holiday Season is Here!

Whoa, what happened to Thanksgiving?? Well, we made it through a snowy, icy, crazy-but-fun week. Thanks to all for the special orders, we were slammed and loved every minute of it. On that note, make sure to get your holiday pie special orders in early! We'll be taking orders now through Thursday, December 23rd.

Pies and pie items are perfect for holiday gifts, parties, or a party-of-one...email me any time for more info on pies, Flipsides, Cutie Pies, Piejars, Petit-5s, Piepops, and more!

....And as for the new shop, yep it's still in the works! We're aiming for late Dec/early January still, so keep those fingers crossed that we can ring in the new year with pie!

Fuel the Cure

Our annual Fuel the Cure fundraiser has started! Each October, in honor of our dear friend Noelle and National Breast Cancer Awareness Month, Fuel donates a percentage of ALL Fuel sales from the entire month of October to the Susan G. Komen Fund! Come on in all month long and buy lots o stuff so we can donate big bucks for a cure.

Last weekend, our Fuel the Cure team completed the Breast Cancer 3-day walk, 60 miles over 3 days to raise $ for a cure. It was amazing to be a part of over 2000 walkers covering many miles in sun and rain, blisters and joint pains, laughs and questionable food. I had never before heard of Tofu/Black Bean Cacciatore. But a huge thank you to all who donated to the Team and all who came out to cheer us on in Redmond, Bothell, Everett, Seattle, and everywhere in between....and HUGE thanks for all the wonderful candy!!!! :)

Never underestimate the power of a sugar-high...

A huge thanks to Bon Appetit Magazine for listing Fuel as one of the "Hot 10" places for pie in the US!  Check it out in the October issue...we're totally honored and excited!

So the new shop is coming along quite well in its buildout phase...so much to do, but it's pretty exciting.  Take a swing by 12th and Madison and check it out.

Fuel the Cure/Team Noelle is doing the 3-day walk for breast cancer cure this weekend!  We'll be walking 60 miles and crossing our fingers that 1.) we raise tons of $ to help find a cure! and 2.) the weather holds out.  Ok ok, as long as we raise lots of money for breast cancer research, I'll deal with rain! :)  You can donate now at www.the3day.org and/or you can come cheer us on at the Wallingford Fuel Cheer Station on Sunday morning, 8-10am (there will be snacks!).

NOW HERE'S WHERE YOU COME IN:  who has some good vegan, gluten-free cookie recipes????  I'm on the hunt for the most delicious vegan/gf cookie, preferably something other than chocolate chip.  Email me if you know of a good one and are willing to share!

Have a great week all...and hope to see you this weekend at the cheer station!

Almost Summer....

...though I'm not sure I'm believing it much with this crazy weather!  However, neither rain nor gray nor delayed nice weather is keeping us from having some pretty incredible pie adventures lately.  

So every day for the past month and a half, Cat (H5's head baker) and I have been logging serious hours at the bakery developing OVER 30 NEW RECIPES!!!  Yep, seriously over 30...some sweet, some savory, all super delicious. 

 Some examples to look forward to:  Raspberry/Mint/Chocolate, Perfect Marionberry Pie, Strawberry Rhubarb with Ginger, Chocolate Creme, Coconut Cream, Banana Blueberry Pudding Pie, Amazing Strawberry Apricot Pie, Peach/Ricotta/Honey, and SO many more.  Ready for some savory coming attractions?  How about:  Ham/Gruyere/Caramelized Onion, Prosciutto/Pear/Gruyere, Salmon/Cream Cheese/Dill, Quiches, oh man the list just goes on and on!!!

Oh my gosh, and how could I forget this one, soon to be your new fave:  Peanut Butter and Jelly Pie with cookie crumb crust????!!!!  

Ah yes, it's gonna be a great summer...by the way, get our seasonal Peach/Ginger/Raspberry while you can as it will soon be replaced!  What's next?  We're thinking Lemon Blueberry, but let me know if you have an idea!

Pie on, all.
