Pi Day Piestravaganza

March 3, 2016 by Marketing

pi-pie Calling all geeks and nerds, math enthusiasts, and lovers of fruit filled pastry — Pi Day is coming! Do you want to save exactly $3.14 on all your Pi Day delivery orders? Of course you do. Do you want to surprise your office with gorgeous locally made sweet pies or savory pizza pies? The answer is 3.141592653589793238462643… AKA: YES!

Pi Day is celebrated on March 14th (3/14) around the world. Pi (Greek letter “π”) is the symbol used in mathematics to represent a constant — the ratio of the circumference of a circle to its diameter — which is approximately 3.14159 (ect.). Pi has been calculated to over one trillion digits beyond its decimal point. As an irrational and transcendental number, it will continue infinitely without repetition or pattern. While only a handful of digits are needed for typical calculations, Pi’s infinite nature makes it a fun challenge to memorize, and to computationally calculate more and more digits. Or you can just eat some pie and think about how lovely it would be to have an infinite amount of pie. Pie infinity.

Every year we max out on pie deliveries on March 14th. So get your orders in soon!

Pi Day? Why not Pi Week!

March 2, 2015 by Jon Elias

Everybody loves Pi Day. Not only is it everyone’s favorite irrational number, but it’s a great excuse to enjoy some delicious pie.

This year, Portland Pedal Power and Pacific Pie Co. are teaming up to bring you not not just Pi Day, but Pi Week!

Rather than cram all that Pi goodness into a single day (or a single minute, if you’re going for “EXTREME PI DAY” at 3/14/15 9:26 AM) we’re extending the celebration to the entire week, with a special offer every day leading up to Pi Day.

Getting your orders in for the week leading up to Pi Day will get you something different each day. See what kind of extra baked goodness you can get, including:

Monday (3/9) – Ordering any pie from Pacific Pie Co. will get you free delivery, ensuring nothing gets between you and your Pie.

Tuesday (3/10) – Orders totaling more than $200 will receive a dozen free bite-sized sweet pies, so everyone around the office can get a taste of something sweet.

Wednesday (3/11)– orders totaling more than $200 will get a $10 gift card to Pacific Pie, getting you some credit to celebrate Pi Day this Saturday.

Thursday (3/12) – Orders over $200 will receive a 2 free mini savories pies, giving you a chance to try the other side of the pie spectrum!

Friday (3/13) – Order a full sized pie, and Pacific Pie Co. will include a hand-made pastry in the the shape of the Pi Symbol on top of your pie.

So many choices, so many pies. Get your orders in for the office this coming week, so you can enjoy Pi Week to the fullest!

National Pie Day – Another Reason to Love Pie!

January 14, 2015 by Jon Elias

Pie Day is a magical time of the year. It’s like a whole day was dedicated to bringing you back to your grandmothers house, when the egg timer dings and suddenly the kitchen is filled with the smell of browned crust and hot apple filling.

That’s right folks, National Pie Day is coming up! Unlike Pi Day, which has a mathematical undertone, Pie Day has no subtleties about it. January 23rd is all about the baked deliciousness you know and love, meaning you can enjoy these goods math free (which, if you had the math experience I had in high school, is a good thing)

This year, Pacific Pie Co. and Portland Pedal Power are teaming up to bring you free pie delivery on National Pie Day, Friday the 23rd. If you order a pie from Pacific Pie Co. to be delivered on the 23rd, Portland Pedal Power and Pacific Pie Co. will cover the cost of delivery, ensuring there are no barriers between you and your pie.

We also want to hear about your Pie Experiences! Have you had an especially delicious Pie from Pacific Pie Co? Have a saucy story about last year’s Pie Day? Or maybe you just have a picture of a delicious pie you just took out of the oven, and have been waiting for the perfect opportunity to share. This is your opportunity!

Posts Your Pie pictures and stories by Thursday, January 22rd and tag Portland Pedal Power and Pacific Pie Co. on Facebook, Twitter, or Instagram, and our judges will award a lucky pie enthusiast a Free Pie in addition to their free delivery. Yes, you did read that right. Free Pie, Free delivery, all for showing us your enthusiasm for pie. What’s not to love?

Bad Case of the Munchies? We can Help!

November 11, 2014 by Jon Elias

With recent developments in Oregon, there might be a time in the future where you start to get suuuuuper hungry and have a strong urge to watch Adventure Time.

Or maybe you just started synching Dark Side of the Moon with The Wizard of Oz, and it seems like the perfect time to get something delicious in front of you. (If you haven’t done it yet, try it.)

Frankly, I can think of 91 reasons why you might get a bad case of the munchies during the next couple of months.

I was going for subtle, but it kind of devolved there.

Even if you don’t plan on taking advantage of Measure 91, sometimes you get an urge for something tasty without needing the full sized meal. If only there were some way you could get delicious food delivered to your location so you can stay inside and take care of business.

Oh right, there is a way! Portland Pedal Power has just what you need to cure the afternoon/evening munchies:

Big Ass Sandwiches lives up to its name, creating ample sandwiches filled with home roasted meats and homemade ingredients, sure to squash big hunger in its tracks. Best of all, Big Ass uses bread baked locally by Fleur De Lis, meats from Northwest, family owned stock yards & hot sauce made locally by Secret Aardvark Trading Co.

Whiffies Fried Pies creates savory and sweet fried pies sure to knock you off your feet, like their BBQ Beef Brisket, Tofu Pot Pie, and their Oregon Mixed Berry. Whiffies has been featured on Food Network, Travel Channel, Rachel Ray Magazine, Sunset Magazine, and more!

The Dump Truck serves a menu that mixes the traditions of China with the funk of Portland to bring you some of the best dumplings you will ever taste. Check out their menu, and you will find everything from your traditional pork dumplings to the remarkable! Seriously, who else would even attempt to create a Bacon Cheeseburger wrapped in a dumpling?

Pacific Pie Co. whips up some of the best pies this side of the galaxy, and does so with an Aussie flair few can imitate. All of the pies at Pacific Pie Co. feature local, humanely raised meat and organic veggies as well as vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free alternatives for any diet out there.
