The History of Just Pies
Just Pies is a specialized bakery
focusing on the production of, you guessed it, Pies!!!
We are a family-owned and operated business, with three
Columbus locations. Our original storefront location in
Worthington, our baking facility/retail location in
Westerville and our newest store in Gahanna. Just Pies
produces homemade pies from the finest, freshest
ingredients daily. We offer over 25 different flavors
and there is sure to be one that is "Just" right for
you!
How do we make a Just Pie?
When asked what makes our pies so
special, the answer is easy: the crust. Just Pies makes
a light-flaky crust that will take you back to the
homemade pies that grandma used to bake. The recipe is
simple: flour, a touch of sugar, and the secret
ingredient, lard.
For our fruit pies, you will only find quality IQF
fruit. No canned fillings here! Our fruit is picked from
all over the country, whether it is strawberries from
California, red raspberries from Oregon, or just red
tart cherries from our neighbor to the north, Michigan. The fruit is first picked fresh, cleaned, and then
individually quick frozen (IQF). This IQF process allows
us to bring you the freshest tasting fruit fillings all
year long.
What about our cream pies??
Nothing but whole milk, farm
fresh eggs, and grade AA butter there. We make our
meringue from scratch using egg whites, and our cream is
whipped fresh daily. Not only that, but our bananas are
received fresh every morning, and our key lime juice
comes straight from Key West, Florida.
How do I get one?
Are you asking yourself, “How do I
get one?” Well, there are two simple ways! If you are in
the Columbus area, stop by one of our three
storefront locations where we
make over 25 varieties for you to take home daily. In or
around Columbus, but just can’t seem to make it over to
Worthington, Westerville, or Gahanna? Then check out
some of the fine markets and
restaurants where you can find a Just Pies’ pie.
