Just look at these innovative recipes - 🥵🥵🥵

Each pie is an impressive, whimsical tribute that encapsulates a state's unique flavors and honors its culture.

· For South Dakota, Stacey researched Indigenous ingredients with a Sioux nation chef to create her Wild Rice Pudding Pie.

· For Illinois, she created a Deep Dish Pumpkin Pie.

· For Nevada, she brought a Las Vegas all-you-can-eat-buffet into eight extraordinary savory and sweet slices.

With bonus pies to honor Stacey’s trajectory from Southeast Asia to her Brooklyn home, like:

· A Pandan Custard Pie for her birthplace of Singapore

· A Kope Jahe Pie in honor of her childhood in Indonesia

· A Honey Peach Pie for her time at the Savannah College of Art and Design

· And a Bagel Order Pie to celebrate her new forever New York City home

About Stacey: Stacey was born in Singapore (9,535 miles from the U.S.A). She grew up and developed her love for baking and deeper love for America in Hong Kong (7,886 miles from the U.S.A) with frequent travels to the states during her summer vacations and her constantly listening to Dolly Parton & Bruce Springsteen. She eventually made the journey over to the America for college at the Savannah College of Art & Design in Savannah, GA. She resides in Brooklyn, NY where everything in her apartment has just a light dusting off flour on it.

About 50 Pies, 50 States: There's nothing quite so American as a slice of pie. That's what Stacey Mei Yan Fong learned growing up in Singapore and Hong Kong, watching movies set in the United States and dreaming about taking a road trip from coast to coast, stopping at diners along the way. After college in Savannah and a decade as a fashion designer, Stacey turned her passion for home baking into an ode to her chosen home: honoring the people, places, and flavors that made her love this country with a pie for each state.
