Don’t laugh but there is such a thing as The American Pie Council (APC). What is the mission of APC? “The American Pie Council® is the only organization dedicated to preserving America’s pie heritage and promoting America’s love affair with pies.” They are having the annual National Pie Championships and Festival next weekend in Celebration.
The Pie Championships are April 24-26 and The Great American Pie Festival will take place April 25 and 26 (right at the end of the Sun ‘n Fun Fly-in).
This seems like a pretty cool event with “The Never-Ending Pie Buffet, featuring award winning pies, ice cream, toppings and beverages featuring pies from Bakers Square, Bonert’s Slice of Pie, Edwards, Key West Key Lime Pie Co., Inc., Mrs. Smith’s Bakeries, Publix SuperMarkets Inc., Rocky Mountain Pies, Sara Lee Bakery, California Raisin Marketing Board Schwan’s Bakery, Village Inn Restaurants and Wick’s Pies. Admission to the Never Ending Pie Buffet is $10 for adults, $5 for seniors and children age 6-12.”
I may just have to check out this event for myself, after all it is practically in our own backyard!
