The 2014 APC National Pie Championships will take place at the Caribe Royale in Orlando, FL April 25-27, 2014.
Amateur pie makers, professional bakers/chefs and commercial pie companies from around the country and Canada have been competing at the NPC since 1995.
The APC has created a standard of quality in pie making on all levels. We have a well-established record in the pie-judging field for both amateur bakers, professional and commercial bakers alike. Our commercial members have shown that winning an APC award can substantially increase sales and market share in that category and the competition gets tougher each year.
Due to the addition of new sponsors, the entry form has been delayed, however, we are announcing the 2014 flavors for the Amateur Division: Apple, Blueberry, Chocolate, Citrus, Cream, Cream Cheese, Comstock/Wilderness (Apple, Cherry, Blueberry, Strawberry, Combination 2+ flavors), Fruit/Berry, Innovation, Key Lime, Nut, Paramount Peach, Peanut Butter, Pumpkin, Special Dietary (Gluten Free, No Sugar Added), Open. So, you can start practicing your new recipes!
