    Pies from Around the World

    International pies for any occasion!

    Are you looking for something luscious and creamy? Then Torta della Nonna and Pasticciotto will indeed address those cravings.

    Keep it all authentic by using Italy’s traditional pastry dough (How to Make Pasta Frolla).

    Something delicate and light, perhaps? Melopita or Greek Honey Pie is what you need.

    There’s a savory pie too! Swedish Cheese Pie is perfect for an appetizer or brunch --- absolutely delicious!
