Did you know that when you place your deep dish pie order at least 24 hours in advance of pick up that you can save up to $10 per pie?!?  That’s right…some of our flavors you save $10 PER PIE just by planning ahead.

Don’t worry, you can still stop in any time to grab pies on the go…but keep that in mind when you are planning your next Party, BBQ, or Meeting.  Just think…you can save the cost of an entire pie in just 3 orders by giving us 24 hours notice.  AND…you are sure to get your favorite flavor as well!

Our on-line ordering system is still down until May 21st or so, as we make some small adjustments….but you can sure call us at the shop, 808-212-8320, or swing by!  Our Farmer’s Market locations also accept special orders, so just ask your baker to take an order for you and we will have an ono-lishious pie ready and waiting for you to pick up!

Mother’s Day is Sunday…so if you want to get mom’s favorite call your order in by 10 am on Saturday.  If you forget, don’t worry…we are making lots of extra baby sized pies for the shop on Sunday!  A baby not enough to feed your family?  No worries…just get two!  More fun to have an assortment of flavors anyway! 

Have a great weekend pie lovers!

Aloha!

We have done a lot in the past 10 months!  We hired and trained a fantastic new staff, we lived and learned through the growing pains of moving and expanding (thank you all for your patience), we added several new products:

Savory Pot Pies

Slippah Turnovers

Menehune Pie Bites

Lotus Blossoms

Pie Shakes

We plan to add several more fun new items to our line in the upcoming summer months, so be sure to stick close!  If you haven’t yet ‘Liked” us on Facebook…that is where all the fun is announced!  So be sure to follow us on Facebook!  This is also where you can go to see our daily shop offerings!

While I can’t quite let the cat out of the bag on a few new things we are working on, I can tell you, since many of you have tested for us, that we will be offering Frozen take and bake pies by June.  This will include both sweet and savory flavors.  By mid-summer we also plan to add homemade ice cream to our Puhi shop offerings as well as cold and refreshing ice cream pies.  There is also a rumor of whoopie pies making a comeback!  We haven’t seen those at The Right Slice in nearly two years!  Watch for classic and tropical flavors coming this summer!

We have some work to do at the bakery in order to get ready for these new additions, so please be patient as we update our electrical to allow for more refrigeration units in our store space.

You may have also noticed that our beautiful garden lanai is looking a bit sparce lately.  That is because we are getting ready to welcome new neighbors behind our shop.  They should begin construction very soon, so please be patient with us as we work thru the dust!  But don’t worry!  It means all good things for The Right Slice in 2012!!!

We also have a couple of slight schedule changes to announce.

• We will no longer be setting up a booth at the Saturday, KCC Farmer’s Market in Lihue.  If you are a faithful farmer’s market goer, you will be happy to hear that our friends at Moloa’a Bay Coffee have once again offered to sell both baby pies and menehune pie bites for us on Saturdays…so you can still get your Pie Fix!  But…if you are feeling like a short three block drive, stop by our Puhi Location on Saturdays!  We will soon be opening on Saturdays at 10 am, to better serve you.  This means you can support your local farmer’s at the market then buzz on over for some weekend pot pies.  Easy dinner!  Gotta love it!
• We will also be shortening our farmer’s market on the North Shore.  Our Tuesday Waipa market has been going quite well, as always, but we will be changing our hours available from 2-4 to 2-3.  We will often still be at the market until 3:30 or 4 pm, but we have been selling out quite often and don’t want you to be dissapointed if you come late and we are already gone…so set your watches and be sure to get to Waipa on Tuesdays early!  Did you hear that we are also taking our savory take adn bake pot pies to the Waipa Farmer’s Market?  Don’t miss em!  Ono-lishious!
• You can also get Take and Bake pot pies at our Wednesday Kukui’ula Culinary Market from 4-6, but come early…once they are gone they are gone.
• If you have a craving for pot pies but can’t make it to our Puhi location, set your sights on Hanapepe Art Night.  Fridays from 5-9 pm in old Hanapepe Town we are now offering HOT AND READY to eat savory pot pies, right along side of our sweet pie slices! Come early, we have sold out every week so far!

Thanks for keeping up to date with us, sharing your pie enthusiasm stories and support

You won’t want to miss out on this fantastic community event!

We will be set up in our usual Hanapepe Location near Talk Story Bookstore from 11-9 on Friday and 11-3 on Saturday.

Stop in and say Aloha!!!

Last week’s Tuesday Waipa Market was a no go…as the roads were closed, due to the flooding and wash outs.   We have decided that we will not be attending this Tuesday’s Waipa Market as well.  We feel the need to stay close to home, and out of the way of both the hardworking road crews, trying to clean up our roads, and Mother Nature’s way as well.

So…we are sorry all of you Northshore pie fans, but we do plan to be back on the 20th!!!  And if you are out and about, be sure to stop by the Puhi Pie Shop and we will serve you up a nice pie slice, or maybe some pot pies for dinner!

mmmm….you won’t want to miss this week’s Irish Inspired pot pie flavors…starting with today’s Irish Dubliner Cheese and Stout…mmmm…

Well…if you have attended in the past, or have been looking forward to it, mark your calendars and save the date! 

Pie Tasting Event:  Sunday, January 29th 10-noon.  Puhi Bakery Location

Reservation only.  Space is extremely limited.

To hold your space, please stop by any of our farmer’s market booths or our Puhi shop and pay your reservation fee of $15.

We will again be tasting 8-10 new pie flavors…lots of fun things on the horizon!  You won’t want to miss it!

Hope to see you there!

We now offer Mango Lilikoi Pie Pops to be shipped anywhere in the US for $20!  That’s right!  Share a little Aloha with your favorite people!  A half dozen pie pops shipped via USPS Priority Mail will usually arrive within 3-5 business days…so order your pie pops on the weekend, and we will ship them out fresh on Monday!

Haven’t seen our pie pops yet?  Check us out on Facebook for some fun pics!  A mini Mango Lilikoi Pie on a stick!  Pie on the go!

It has been a whirlwind of going from doing 5 or 6 farmer’s markets a week with 2 part time employees to adding in 7 days a week at the retail shop AND bringing on 5 more employees.  Trying to fit it all in and make it all work took some time, but I think we have it figured out.  We have a great team at the bakery, and their training is almost complete…I hope that you have been able to meet all of our new bakers and get to know them.  Watch for several new faces at our upcoming farmer’s markets as we start cross training.

Thank you also to everyone as we train our new staff.  You may have noticed some glitches along the way….but I think we have worked through those growing pains, and I am happy to say we are on our way to fun new things!  Keep an eye on us over the next two months…you won’t want to miss a minute of it!  …did someone say Pie Ravioli?!?!?!  shhhhhh….

You probably noticed that we had some unexpected downtime last week, due to some poor attitude on our oven’s part.  I am happy to report that we will be up and running at full capacity again tomorrow!  Yippee!  So…if you have been craving a homemade pot pie or a slice and coffee, stop in tomorrow!  We will be open from 11-6.

Baker Sandy also just returned from a trip to the mainland.  How did her bakers do while she was away?  She would love to hear your comments/suggestions/concerns.  Please reply to this post, or e-mail her directly at sandy@rightslice.com .  She is excited to get back in the bakery and is VERY happy to let you all know that she came back to Kaua’i with an entire suitcase FULL of caramels!  You know what that means…Caramel Apple Pecan Pie is BACK on the menu!  We will be baking some tomorrow, so stop in after work, or on Thursday morning and pick up one of our favorite flavors.

I hope to see you all enjoying a delicious slice of Kaua’i Fresh Pie soon!  Stop by the new shop and say Aloha!  1543 Haleukana St, Lihue….Puhi Industrial Park…just a block from Mark’s Place!

And mark your calendars….Grand Opening Celebration…Saturday, October 8th…from 11-6.  You won’t want to miss out on the chance to win free pie for a year, or our special pie deals all day long.

Much Mahalos!
