Pastry chef Zoe Taylor reinvents the pie with creations like this peach-and-port “Pop Rocks Pop Tart” sprinkled with fizzy candy and a savory, lace-braided pie flavored with beets, greens, and kimchi.
You’ll spy these delectable buttery-crusted babies made with locally sourced fruit on the menus at Bluebeard and Thunderbird. They also appear on the shelves of Goose the Market, Wildwood-Market, and Traders Point Creamery in heavenly renditions like tart cherry, blueberry-basil, and salted caramel apple.
