party pies!

DON’T TELL CAKE WE SAID SO…

BUT WE THINK PIE IS THE BEST CELEBRATION DESSERT ;)

WHETHER YOU’RE PLANNING A WEDDING, A BIRTHDAY PARTY, A HOLIDAY GATHERING, OR A BIG SUMMER BBQ, LET MAGPIES PROVIDE DESSERT!

A FEW THINGS TO CONSIDER WHEN PLANNING ON PIES FOR A LARGE PARTY…

  • # OF GUESTS

    For large gatherings, budget about $6 per guest/per slice. MAGPIES provides custom pies in two formats:

    9” Round Pies: $36/pie; each pie serves 6

    Slab Pies: $140/pie, baked in sheet trays, each pie serves 24

    Quarts of Local Whipped Cream: $11/Quart, each quart serves 10

    For groups of 30-50: 1 Flavor Selection

    For groups of 50-100: 2 Flavor Selections

    For groups of 100+: 3 Flavor Selections

    (An Example: For a group of 100, you might order 2 Slab Pies of one flavor, 1 Slab Pie of a second flavor, and 1 Slab Pie of a third flavor. Or 6 Round Pies each of three different flavors…..)

    *If you are a small group but would like more than your allotted number of flavors, there is a $50 flat fee for each additional flavor.

    **We recommend ordering a few extra servings for those who want to go back for seconds or try another flavor!

  • FLAVOR SELECTION

    We offer our most popular pie flavors for large groups. We know it can be hard to choose…..so we’ve broken them down into 3 categories to help you think while you salivate:)

    FRUIT PIES:

    These pies will vary depending on the time of year of your event—nothing tastes better than a seasonal, ripe, locally sourced fruit pie! Can be topped with BROWN BUTTER CRUMBLE, FULL TOP CRUST, or LATTICE (traditional woven top crust). A few examples by month:

    Late May-June: Gingery Rhubarb, Strawberry Rhubarb, Strawberry w/Meyer Lemon

    July: Blueberry-Meyer Lemon, Sour Cherry, Gingery Mixed Berry

    August-Early Sept: Almond-Apricot, Plum-Cardamom, Peach w/Honey + Lime

    Sept-Dec: Caramel Apple, Apple-Cranberry, Pear w/Maple + Bourbon

    CITRUS PIES:

    Meyer Lemon Custard Pie

    Key Lime Pie

    SWEET N’ CREAMY PIES:

    Millionaire Tart (salted shortbread crust, caramel, dark chocolate, and flaky salt)

    Salted Maple Custard Pie

    Caramel-Coconut Custard Pie

    Derby Pie (pecan pie w/chocolate + bourbon)

    Mexican Chocolate Chess Pie

  • DELIVERY & SERVICE FEES

    If you’re looking for a dinner caterer for your Catskills event, look no further than Chef Deanna. Scrumptious, seasonal, beautiful, and she is kind to boot. She and I work together often, and she is able to bring pies with her when she cooks on-site.

    If you’re not using Chef Deanna for your event, you are welcome to pick your pies up at Mapgies in Andes, NY the day of your event. If you’d prefer delivery, there is a fee of $50 for any venue within a 15-mile radius of Andes, NY. (Fee is larger outside said range.)

    We are happy to slice pies prior to delivery at no charge. (Please note we do not provide plates, forks, or serving utensils.)

  • TIMING

    It is best to start the ordering process for a large party as soon as possible. Guest count and flavors must be solidified no later than 1 month prior to your event. There is a 20% non-refundable deposit due 2 weeks prior to the event (payable by credit card, check, or cash).

    (Magpies is a very small business—pretty much a one-gal operation! While we will do our best to accommodate your requests, availability to do so will favor early requests, and will be more challenging around holidays.)
