Miss Angels Heavenly Pies

I learned about Miss Angels Heavenly Pies from a segment on UNC-TV’s «North Carolina Weekend» show and Miss Angel’s own appearances on a couple reality television shows. The experience did not disappoint. The pies were, indeed, heavenly to smell, see, and taste. (Since my visit was on a quiet Sunday afternoon, I had the place nearly to myself. In the height of tourist season, Miss Angels gets very crowded, I am told.)
The bakery occupies a prime spot in Mt. Airy, just up the street from the famous Snappy Lunch. A delicious aroma emerges as soon as Miss Angels door is opened, and a huge number of baked goodies come into view. Almost every variety of pie, cookie, and pastry is available, including the local specialty, fruit sonker (similar to a cobbler). The décor is very busy, a bit girly, and shows Miss Angel has some sass and pizazz! I liked the sarcastic humor of many of the signs and product descriptions.
I tried the beef pot pie ($ 6.00), which was chocked full of beef, carrots, and potatoes. The crust was particularly flaky and perfect, though I would have liked some gravy in the filling. I took home a variety of «small» pies ($ 4.00−6.00), to sample as many as I could. A posted letter from a local celebrity praised the blueberry pie, and I must concur: one of the best versions I’ve had. I liked the blackberry and raspberry pies, though they needed to be a bit sweeter. The apple crumb pie was spot-​on perfect.
Miss Angels is a «must do» while visiting Mt. Airy. I can see a return visit to Miss Angels in my near-​future!

Found this bakery on my way to Mount pilot state park. Lemon bar had a nice lemony taste to it. Refrigerated banana cream pie tin not so great due to the quality of the pudding. I also purchased a peach crumble pie that had strawberries in it. Looks great haven’t tasted it yet.

We found this bakery after Unilocaling gluten free on our travels and stopped in. While the gluten free selection wasn’t large, the chocolate chip cookies were amazing. Moist, soft, thick and melted chocolate goodness. I wish I had bought more. She even decorated them for us for a special occasion. She also makes gf brownies but these were sold out, so it might be good to call ahead. She offers all sorts of standard brownies, cookies, Danishes, cakes, savory meat pies, lunch items etc.
