. . . I don’t think I’ve ever had as good a pie as Grand Traverse Pie Company’s Cherry Crumb Pie... It’s a religious experience.
-Mario Batali, The Food Network
. . . I am placing a second order to try the Key lime Cheesecake and Death by Chocolate cake. The fruit pies are the best I ever had. The cookies are yummy. I saw your menu online and joked with my Mom and said I am moving to Michigan to be near one of your shops because the food looks out of this world . There is nothing like that in Southern New Jersey. Never know, I may move out there eventually! Thank you for your wonderful products that are so deliciously made with the best ingredients. Can't wait for the next order to arrive. Hope I don't gain too much weight!!!!
-Vineland, NJ
. . . Our first ever order of pies arrived -- YUMMY!!! We received the Cherry Crumb and the Blueberry Crumb. The pies got here to central Illinois just fine in the box. We also purchased the cutter and server and both worked well. Thanks so much for a great product. I think orders around the Christmas holiday will mark several out of state gifts off our list. Oh of course, and more for us, too!
-Hillsboro, IL
. . . My mom and I have a tradition of having GTPie for breakfast whenever we are together-This one is apple crumb with caramel-Yum!
- Suttons Bay, MI
. . . This is the second time that we have ordered pies from you guys (our local store closed). It amazes me that you can pack the pies and they come in perfect shape! Good job and good pies!!!
-Owensboro, KY
. . . Thank you! We can hardly wait for the next and the next...The apple crumb as the best pie I ever ate perhaps until the next one.
-Branford, CT
. . . When asked if he wanted a cake for his birthday, he replied that he wanted Grand Traverse Pie- cherry crumb, of course!
- Suttons Bay, MI
. . . Got our 2 pies I ordered for my husband. They were in great shape, fresh and tasty (as always!). It's what he wanted for Christmas! I decided to order them after the Christmas rush, hoping they would arrive in good shape, and they did! Thanks so much!
-Jacksons Gap, AL
. . . All four pies I'd ordered in time for Christmas Eve Day arrived, all as beautiful as when they left your bakery. FedEx did an excellent job of delivering them; and my family, both west and east coast with us at our Oregon winter home are licking their lips in anticipation. I ordered strawberry-rhubarb, cherry-peach, pumpkin and pecan pies. It was my first order from GT, and if they taste as good as they look, you have a new customer; and I have a new company to send my far- and- wide gift recipients list from now on. Thank you for coming through!
-Ashland, OR
. . . First time customer-ordered through your catalog just rec'd. Your website was so customer friendly-it was a pleasure. I can't wait for mom and dad to taste-all look scrumptious!
-Bartlett, IL
. . . OMG! That was the best apple pie I ever had in my whole life. It was really delicious, I enjoyed every bit of it. Of course my husband and kids loved it too. So we finished everything before dinner.
-Weston
. . . The package was waiting for me at my front door. Of course I had to open immediately. Wow! I've never had anything like it. The chocolate is fabulous and the filling - well needless to say I indulged with passion. Thank you so very much. It is a memorable treat! I have frozen it so I can continue to partake over the next few weeks.
-Norwalk, CT

. . . My first order from you arrived today. I was skeptical when opening the box and to my surprise there was not a flake of crust missing from the pie. I could not imagine how two pies could ship and look like they just came out of the oven .... You did it. Can't wait to try them for Thanksgiving tomorrow. Thank you!
-Martinsville, VA
. . . Just wanted to let you know the pie we bought for our grandkids in Denver was delicious. They sent us this picture with the rhetorical question "how good was it?" as the caption. Thanks, we'll be in touch again I'm sure.
-Oracle, AZ
. . . My best friend Mandy sent me a classic cherry crumb pie for my birthday and I loved it! It was so delicious, I consumed the whole thing in 17 minutes. Here are the photos! Thanks for the deliciousness!
-Los Angeles, CA
. . . Today we received the mountain berry which we have had several times. It's our favorite!!! We also got a blueberry pie. The blueberry pie was the best we've had yet! Thanks for using real blueberries. I've been ordering blueberry pies from a couple websites. Trying to find one to send to my mom on her birthday, and yours is the best. I'm definitely ordering my mom a blueberry pie from you for her birthday. Still enjoying our pies. They make a great breakfast! Thanks again
-Whitestown, IN
. . . Our two cherry pies were perfectly delivered today when expected. I am sure the pies look exactly as they did when you shipped them. No cracks in the crust and of course, perfect flavor! We have frozen one, tried the other, and will share with friends. Thank you and expect to hear from us again!
-Clinton, IA
. . . Oh, my....oh, yum......! 15the anniversary dinner, "Hope Springs" with Meryl Streep, and Cherry Crumb Pie flown in from Grand Traverse Pie Company....a recipe for smiles and romance! Thank you! this is our new anniversary tradition!
-Grand Rapids, MN
. . .
This is my husband diving into his delicious pie! I ordered 2 pies for him for our 30th anniversary. I'm such a romantic! As you can tell, he didn't wait to give it a try! Thanks for putting a smile on his face! Rhubarb is hard to find in Oklahoma
-Piedmont, OK
. . . I ordered one of your cherry pies for my mother as a Mother's Day gift this year. She loves cherries. The pie was so delicious she said my father wanted a pie for Father's Day, too! I just ordered a Holiday Hill Rhubarb pie for him. My parents live in Moline, Illinois and the first pie arrived in beautiful condition as I'm sure will be the case with this one. Thanks for a great product. I'm sure we will continue to be customers for future events.
-Duluth, GA
. . . I am mailing a pie (June Feature) to my Daughter in Law, LTC Sydney A Smith who is returning Sunday, June 3rd, to her home in Fayetteville, NC,(FT. Bragg). She is home for a brief R & R after serving in Afgahanistan, she has not been home since last September. My son LTC Tim Gilhool is also deployed to Afghanistan. My two grandkids Molly 8 and Jimmy 10 will also enjoy this pie with their mom. I have mailed pie's to them before for a Christmas gift and for birthdays. Tim and Syd always say that the pies are delicious. Thanks for giving me a nice way to share some Michigan love with them!
-Riverview, MI
. . . That apple pie was the best ever! I don't know who you got baking pies but man that was my momma's pie! I had to go out and tell my friend, buy this pie if you don't like it I'll pay for it. My wife just smelled the pie and started tearing up because it reminded her of her grandmother. We are trying to slow down but we cant wait to get into the other pies which will be tonight. Please tell you bakers they got it going on. I have 4 mini's and another apple to get into. Best order I made my wife said.
-Hanover, PA
. . . Just a quick note of thanks! This was my first time ordering and I was completely impressed with the entire process from the online ordering system to the packaging and most importantly. THE PIE! This was a gift for someone who has fond memories of visiting Michigan for the cherry pie and your cherry crumb was a complete hit! The boxes you send them in are great too. Thanks so much and keep up the great work! I am sure I will be ordering again and trying one of the many other varieties you guys offer.
-Elmhurst, IL
. . . Just wanted to let you know as a first time Grand Traverse Pie customer how pleased I was with my recent order. While I (unfortunately) was not able to sample the mini pies, my dad enjoyed getting this birthday surprise delivered to him while he was on vacation. He and my mom and their friends enjoyed all three flavors and I was pleased to hear that "mini" did not mean "tiny". Thank you so much for making this great product available!
-Genoa City, WI
. . . Thank you for doing such a great job packing our order from the Grand Traverse Pie Company. They arrived in perfect condition. Please convey our thanks to the Bakers as the pies are simply delicious! Thanks again.
-Salado, TX
. . . Just a note of thanks for such a helpful and pleasant ambassador as Liz from your shipping phone service. She was a breath of fresh air and assured me of having a baked good sent to Florida for delivery tomorrow. A friend's father-in-law passed suddenly and Grand Traverse and Liz have made possible this family knowing we're thinking about them. Flowers are nice but Grand Traverse's bake goods are "toasty". Thank you!
-Plymouth, MI
. . . My 2 pies came today and they were packed great. The pies look and taste wonderful. I love them. I'm excited to take one pie to my friends for her Birthday tomorrow. The pie boxes were so cute and I likes the picture you sent so now I know who packed it up. I'm very impressed.
-Ankeny, IA
. . . We wanted to say "thank you" to you and everyone at Grand Traverse Pie Company. We ordered your Old Mission Cherry Pie for Thanksgiving dessert - it was a big hit! This was our first time ordering from you and it will not be our last! FYI - I just ordered 3 mini pies and your pumpkin pie. Can't wait to try!
-Flossmoor, IL
. . . We LOVE your pies. Especially the cherry peach cobbler pies. This is really one of our favorite holiday traditions - to send your pies - but my list keeps growing longer and longer! It's seriously the best pie on the planet
-Chicago, IL
. . . We appreciate all your help in fulfilling our corporate order this past Thanksgiving. Many of our clients were thrilled with the cherry crumb pie. We will happily recommend Grand Traverse Pie Company and will gladly work with you again in the future if a need arises. Thanks again for the terrific service and superb pie!
-Oak Park, IL
. . . I have to admit that I was a bit skeptical about buying pies online. My last order was for 2 cream pies and a fruit pie (all mini's). It is good to find a great selection in small pies. We end up wasting larger ones but the mini pies are perfect. I just kept them frozen and defrosted, as instructed. The pies were light and flakey with a flavor that was like I just baked them. I just ordered more and cannot wait. Thank you for the great pies!!!
. . . My parents were delighted with my recent gift order, particularly since I sent them some new items types they hadn't received before. After past gifts which were largely cheese cakes and cream pies (which they always liked), they found your cherry-apple crumb cake especially tasty and different. My mother particularly referenced the crumb topping. Upon arrival of this gift order, they also sampled the Death by Chocolate cake that was included, and couldn't wait until the next day to really enjoy a serious helping. My mother liked the fact that this cake was very solid and filling in a decadent sort of way. Your products really brighten up their golden years. Thanks
-Onalaska, WI
. . . Our office received a cherry crumb pie from a client of ours that moved to Traverse City, MI. We received the pie in good condition. We have had a chance to sample the goods and that cherry pie tastes like heaven! Just wanted to let you know we enjoyed our pie from Grand Traverse Pie Company.
-Waverly, NE
. . . The pie arrived this morning in great shape. Your sugar free fruit pies are the best I've ever
had.
-Macon, GA
. . . We will definitely be ordering pies again from you in the very near future. My sister-in-law and I have big plans to taste the chocolate and the cherry/peach pies next time we are together. Congratulations on a company not only with delicious pies, but also wonderful customer service.
-Winston Salem, NC
. . . Just wanted you to know that our pie arrived beautifully!
-Chesterfield, MO
. . . Just received a pie from your company -it arrived here in PERFECT condition!
-Bainbridge Island, WA
. . . This past weekend I had pie from Royer's Café in Round Top Texas. Royer's is famous for their pies. Your pie blow them out of the water!
-Austin, TX
. . . I just happen to be on the computer when my pie came via FedEx. It appears to be in good shape. It was well packed and the box was in good shape. Please excuse me now as I have to run out and get some vanilla ice cream to complement my pie. I hope it will last longer than a few hours.
-Lombard, IL
. . . The Pie arrived today in perfect shape. It tasted very good.. Thank you very
much.
-Downers Grove,IL
. . . The last pie I had eaten that was this good was my mother in laws and I love Strawberry Rhubarb. Congratulations on the best pie I have sunk my teeth into in all my years. Your pies rule! (I am a dentist, don't tell my patients I eat pies with this much sugar though, HA HA!)
-Kalamazoo, MI
. . . Thanks for your great pies. I ordered the pie of the month for my parents last December and it has been a huge hit with them. They watch for FedEx on the days they believe a pie is going to arrive . . . the rhubarb pie they had before was their favorite!
-Bonnie, UT
. . . My husband and I received one of your awesome cherry crumb pies (our first experience with your product) as a "we're sorry" gift from a company. It was a lovely surprise and the absolute correct customer service gesture. How did we like the pie? You be the judge. It arrived Wed afternoon and was gone by noon today . . . and we didn't have any help eating it!!! I've decided that I want to spend my retirement at the Grand Traverse Pie Company!
-Carlstadt, NJ
. . . Blueberry Crumb, may be the BEST pie that I've ever eaten. And that's saying a lot, because I love fruit pies and have eaten many of them.
-Okemos, MI
. . . My friend has received her package; it was delivered undamaged and ready to eat. My friend and her husband we last heard making 'yummy' noises as they appreciated your efforts and now I'm in trouble as I heard something about 'this is too good, where is this place'. Thank you for making my shopping easy.
-Breda, Netherlands (delivered to San Jose, CA)
. . . My pies did just arrive today in pristine condition thanks to the packaging. They are delicious and I will definitely order more . . . well worth it!
-Steilaccom, WA
. . . I just received your wonderful Cherry Pie! Thank you for having a true filling, not a cornstarch red glob with a few cherries. I know I am loved by the person who sent it.
-Winter Springs, FL
. . . Grand Traverse Pie Company pies are the only gift we even consider giving our donors. I've been sending appreciation gifts from our President to donors for twelve years. The pies are the only gifts that we have received phone calls of appreciation for. Our donors now look forward to receiving them so they can share them with their family over the holidays. We've never had a complaint and no one has ever been disappointed. I know when our order is placed that they will be delivered in a timely manner and in excellent condition.
