Features Holiday Holiday Guide Pies Thanksgiving Bakery Homepage 50+ Places For Great Holiday Pies in Connecticut (2025 Edition) Hannah Goodman November 05, 2025 Pumpkins have been slowly disappearing from all the stoops and porches in Connecticut, which means that some were lucky enough to be turned into golden carriages on Halloween while the rest – lucky for us – are being turned into pies, cheesecakes, and other sweet treats for the upcoming holidays. With Thanksgiving and various religious holidays approaching quickly, it is easy to stress about every little thing, including arguments with the in-laws, the one gift you didn’t get your child even though they swore it was on the wishlist (it wasn’t), and the “homemade” cranberry sauce you forgot on top of the car before you drove down 95 at an alarmingly fast rate because you were late to Thanksgiving dinner. Apparently dinner on holidays must start at 1pm (I don’t make the rules), which means we’re up at 4am eating breakfast and lunch is eaten on the drive to grandma’s house. Despite these apparently oh-so-necessary stresses, it all works out in the end. And frankly, it’s because of the good eats and even better desserts. This year, let’s eliminate the dessert-making anxieties that society forces upon us and get those pies, cakes, cookies, etc. from any of these wonderful, Connecticut-grown locations. They are arranged by county for your convenience because everyone could use a little extra ease this time of year. Fairfield CountyPalmer’s Market - Darien www.palmersdarien.comFor over 100 years, Palmer’s Market in Darien has been more than a place to shop—it’s where tradition is crafted by hand, one pie at a time.

Whether it’s the cozy warmth of a Pumpkin Pie or the sweet-tart perfection of an Apple Cranberry Crumb, each pie is made with the same attention to detail that’s kept them at the heart of the community for generations.
