Cooking Up a Storm

At Strawberry Hill, we bake fresh pies daily in our store, but we decided to expand our selection by making fried pies. I had the opportunity to learn how to make fried peach and strawberry pies today. Though, learning to prepare fried pies is not an easy task. Honestly, two years ago, I never would have guessed that I would be selling produce and making pies (I am just not the homemaker type). Though, being trained in the process and actually being successful in the outcome was quite rewarding. I think by making these pies in house will generate interest in our store and perhaps bring more people in to buy these home fried pies. Since we are "smaller" than the original Strawberry Hill is Chesnee, this new offer will set us aside from their store, giving us some sort of independence. We wanted to do something that was ours, being creative as possible, and generate sales of our own. Hopefully fried pie success will be coming our way soon.
