Laura's Sticky Toffee Pudding Apple Pie

Laura's Sticky Toffee Pudding Apple Pie

We are once again, over the moon and back for our many wins at the 2011 American Pie Council Crisco National Pie Championships in Orlando, Florida! Our biggie  win was Best in Show in the “Crisco 100 Year Anniversary Innovation Category” for Laura’s Sticky Toffee Pudding Caramel Apple Pie! 

The Crisco Innovation award is such an honor to win! We won a great gift basket and trophy, $2000.00, and the coveted opportunity to have our recipe and a picture of the pie on the Crisco can! The award was given to the pie that best displayed fusing the classic and the new elements of pie baking in one delicious and innovative pie! It is something we do every day at the shop, so it was a good fit for what we do best! We are thrilled! 

Included are two pictures of Laura's pie that the folks at Crisco took. One of them will hopefully be included with the recipe on Crisco cans all across the country.

For those of you who don't know the story behind Laura's pie, we've included it below...

Laura’s Sticky Toffee Pudding Caramel Apple Pie

My twin sister, Laura spent several years in British Hong Kong as her family was there for an overseas job opportunity. She had a wonderful experience with the mixed culture and foods of the myriad of people from across the world. Like everyone in our family, my sister was especially fond of the delicious and diverse food exposure. Fortunately, my sister had sticky toffee pudding for dessert one night with some new, English friends. She was enamored by its caramel moist cake and creamy sauce and had to have the recipe that evening! My dear sister is a wonderful baker and has delighted us with this delicious English dessert for over a decade now that she is home. After tasting this dessert, I decided a delicious fusion of this British cake with the All American Caramel Apple Pie would be yummy, and most appropriate given our past when England was our motherland. This innovative English-American apple, toffee cake -pie combination is indeed, unforgettable. Eat pie, and appreciate old and new traditions!
