The fan favorite will feature 15 percent more fruit than previous fruit pie recipes and is now available in retailers throughout the brand’s core Philadelphia and surrounding markets.

Conveniently portioned and packaged for on-the-go snackers, the reinvigorated line of pies answers to the needs of the modern consumer by combining sweet nostalgic tastes with an enhanced recipe jam-packed with fruit. The brand invites consumers to take a picnic on them this fall, spending less time in the kitchen and relying instead on the masterminds of Tasty Baking Company, who have worked tirelessly to provide the freshest products since 1914.
