Ames Best Pies Full Service Catering provides a full line of baked goods whether you want just a cake or pie for your home or if you have a Food Service Operation. We will deliver directly to your home or business.
We are happy to design and produce specialty "signature" items for your operation. The list below is not all inclusive and we welcome special requests.
If you are having a Wedding, we produce cheesecakes for wedding cakes. They are displayed in an elegant manner and are a truly unique change of pace for the guests. See the photos on this page for examples. Call us for a price quote. You will be favorably surprised at how competitive this gourmet treat is compared with the normal iced cakes.
We do not do the normal iced cakes such as birthday cakes etc. We will be happy to do special Happy Birthday decorations on almost any of our products. (Pies do not work very well).
We are able to produce reduced sugar and no sugar added products on certain of our items. Please call for availability. Please note that no sugar added does not mean that there are no natural sugars that occur in the fruits and other items that are in an item.
We have a limited availability of gluten free desserts. Please call and we will try to make those for you.
The following are a representative sample of our products, but we would love to make something very special for your special requests if you do not see your favorites here.
Since all of our products are produced especially for you when you order them, we need at least 24 hours notice to produce your order.
