Marie
Callender’s, long known for their commitment to freshly prepared foods using
only the highest-quality ingredients, won the top prize at the National Pie
Championship for their Lemon Meringue Pie in the Super Gourmet Commercial
Category. With more than 25 different fruit, cream, and classic-style pies, the
Lemon Meringue Pie is the company’s most popular variety.
“We
believe the reason why our Lemon Meringue Pie is so popular among our customers
is because we’ve achieved the perfect balance between sweet and tart flavors,”
said Marie Callender’s Food and Beverage Manager Jim Cottle on the company’s
performance at the competition. “The golden meringue topping keeps the dessert
light and refreshing.”
The
2015 APC National Pie Championships took place at the Caribe Royale in Orlando,
FL. Contestants at the pie competition’s 20th anniversary ranged from amateur
pie makers, professional bakers and chefs to commercial pie companies from the
United States and Canada.
The
winners were judged in three major categories.
The first category, First Impression, judged the pie slice on appearance
and overall taste. The second category, A Closer Look, explored the slice’s
flavor, mouth feel, crust and aftertaste. The final category, Overall
Impression, asked for the judges overall impression and ultimately, if they
wanted more of that pie.
