Now that Halloween is almost an afterthought, it’s time to think about your holiday meals. Many folks love to cook and bake scrumptious huge meals. Some order out, but everyone agrees that getting the right dessert is very important.

When you don’t have the time, or don’t want to take time to make a from-scratch, delicious homemade pie for the holiday, but you still want the taste, consider ordering one from a local bakery. Maybe you order out for the entire meal or possibly you cook all week and would just like a little help with the dessert.

Well, just for you, below is a list of Phoenix’s finest bakeries for pies. You will pay more, but these places are well worth it.
