Beautiful! As someone who didn't grow up baking and eating pies, does anyone have suggestions on pie crusts? The crust in the pan isn't the problem (I think XD), but I always struggle with the top crust. Needless to say, mine never ever look as beautiful as any of these.
And then there's me. last time i tried baking a pie it melted. it didn't burn or anything it just melted lol
come on, guys, just use frozen pastry - you can't fail with it. You just can't :)
This is beautiful. The only problem is that you won't get a lot of pie crust on each slice when eating. Eating the flaky golden pie crust is one of the best parts of eating pie.
In my world, this would have completely boiled over and the flowers would have gone down with the ship.
Lmao I love your usage of imagery. The same would happen if I tried to do something like this :/

I would love to know, just long it actually took, to make this beautiful pie, from start to finish? My gosh, it sure is beautiful sight! I've never seen one like this before.
How do they cut out so perfectly the intricate flowers? Freeze the dough?
Load More Replies...I know I should be lookin at pie... but that beautiful ornate cake spoon on the right is just too much!
i don't think the pie is going to begrudge your adoration…their relationship is about to reach a whole 'nother level ;-)
Load More Replies...The flowers and the holes! It'll break my heart to slice it... hahaha
I wonder if this would take more dough, what with all the extra hearts, on the crust?
Don't you think this one is going to use quite a bit more dough, for all the extra hearts on outer crust?? Fill me in, as I would love to make this for my hubby!
I imagine the creator had to be pretty fast to avoid ending up with mutated or tough pieces. Still a lot of time, but even more impressive to think how fast she must have to put everything together.
Load More Replies...That's a lot of dough to make up the roses, and time consuming. Beautiful!
Oh yes please, I'll take all the crust roses to eat. A little filling stuck to the bottom of each is okay. 😋😋
Starry starry night! First star on the right, and strait on til morning! Lost boys, pie!!!
Beautiful! And not too much thickness (like the roses, for instance).
Great as a house warming gift or to bring to a dinner party... well done👍
Almost all comments says its a good present, but I'm totally on they're side ;)
That's exactly what I thought ( Zelda) lol Beautiful pie!!
Load More Replies...It looks gorgeous, but I wonder why the inner squares didn't brown up, as well as outer ones?
I'd actually feel guilty cutting a slice out of that -- and I never feel guilty about food!
What I want to know is, if the top is cut out as one piece how on earth does she get it on the pie without breaking it?!
This pie looks delicious, as well as, beautiful <3 Love this one!!
Beautiful design, and it should of had a thumb print, in the middle petal!
Love the silver serving piece's. They're beautiful and really make the pics pop.
It's a pity to finish this awesome work with a "homemade" tag done with an industrial stamp
Well, the cookie cutters used to make the flowers, were done with an industrial stamp, too!
