Delightful Foods - Oakland

So I recently had a 50th birthday, And my husband asked me what did I want for my birthday? I had to think because you know I had a lot of options and then I thought Ooo… All I want a Delightful Foods Bean Pie. We’ve been patronizing Delightful Foods for a few years now, and I LOVE their Bean Pie. I am extremely picky with regard to everything, especially my food. I’m the type of person to drive from Hayward to Napa for my favorite bottle of wine. Yes, they’re being pie is actually that good.As you see, this is what is left of my second bean pie. Thank you Abdullah!!!

Delightful Foods has a stand at the farmers market in front of Kaiser in Oakland on Fridays. They have a large selection of pies, both mini and regular sizes, ranging from fruit pies to key lime and sweet potato. I tried a sample of peach pie, which was really tasty, but ended up with a mini strawberry rhubarb pie. The gentlemen who helped me was very friendly and suggested reheating the pie in the oven at 350 degrees for 10 minutes. He also mentioned the pies will last about 4 days in the fridge if you want to save some dessert for later! The pie was delicious with a buttery crust and the filling was just sweet enough. Looking forward to trying some of their other flavors the next time I see them!

My sister happened to grab three 4.5 oz. pies from this bakery at the Farmer's Market at San Francisco State (1 Chocolate Cream Pie, 1 Coconut Cream Pie, and 1 Sweet Potato Pie) and took them home for us to try. They were all absolutely delicious! If you go to SF State and love pastries, come check them out at the Farmer's Market on Thursdays!

I just ate my mini sweet potato pie and it was out of this world! So buttery and crazy good crust! Honestly it felt like I was on holiday in Georgia!!!I made my purchase at the Lake Merritt Farmers Market on a Saturday.Don't deny yourself!!! ???

Adorable, delicious pie! Got the banana cream today and loved it. Will definitely want to try more when I see them next.
