Elegant Farmer Pie In A Paper Bag
All the way from the small country town of Minong Wisconsin, winner of Bobby Flay’s “Throwdown” and another favorite of Oprah Winfrey and “O” Magazine, these pies are perhaps the most special item of the season.

The only way to improve the experience is with a scoop of Homemade Vanilla Ice Cream by Blue Bell.

Royers Pies
Foodies from all over the state come to the café in Round Top for upscale comfort food. The old-fashioned pie is what keeps 'em coming back. "The crust is the main thing," says owner Tara Royer. It's melt-in-your-mouth flaky. Tara's father, Bud, a.k.a. The Pieman, is famous for his namesake thick, chewy chocolate-chip pie, but the pecan pie deserves a blue ribbon, too.
 
During this years holiday season, we are proud to welcome back Royer’s Pies exclusively at Rice Epicurean Markets. Available Mid November just in time for the Thanksgiving Holiday. Look for these Award Winning Pies in our fresh bakeries and the frozen food department.
