Memorial Day: Tips For Planning Your First BBQ of the Summer
May 11, 2026
Summer is officially here, bringing sunshine, longer days, and rising temperatures. While flaky and warm fruit pies are perfect for the cozy cooler months, the heat calls for a different kind of sweet treat. When it’s hot outside, a heavy dessert might be the last thing on your mind. Instead, a chilling, refreshing, and perfectly sweet cream pie is the best end to a sweltering summer day.
Luckily, Mehaffies has the perfect lineup of cream pies that can be your ultimate summer dessert to keep in the fridge this summer.
The “Cool” Factor
Cream pies are best served chilled, right from the fridge. They offer a delightful cooling effect that contrasts to the hot outside air.
Picture this: biting into the light, airy consistency of a Coconut Cream Pie. Our cream pies satisfy your sweet tooth without feeling too rich.
A Flavor for Every Summer Mood
Mehaffies Pies has a menu sure to satisfy all of your cream pie cravings. Choose from lighter, fruity cream pies or our richer pies made for the serious sweet tooths.
Lemon Meringue: The ultimate taste of sunshine. This bright and zesty flavor profile cuts wondrously through the summer heat. The light-as-air meringue topping melts in your mouth. Can you think of a more defining flavor of summertime?
Banana Cream: A nostalgic summer picnic classic. Our Banana Cream Pie is the best option for a picnic with the family or a lazy weekend afternoon. The smooth banana is the best soothing flavor to go with your PB&J.
The Decadent Classics: Not into fruity flavors? Our Chocolate, Peanut Butter, and the classic Chocolate Peanut Butter Pies are massive crowd-pleasers. These richer cream pies pair well with bigger celebrations like birthdays or graduation parties.
