Overview
Launched in 2020, HUMBLE Bakery has been quietly going about business, serving top-notch daily-made baked goods from hubs in Surry Hills, Sydney CBD and Circular Quay.
Yet, with Mother's Day fast approaching, the team is proud to reveal its HUMBLE Pie — a constantly changing creation the bakery has dreamed of releasing since it first opened its doors. Unveiled just in time for you to impress mum with your choice of baked goods, the debut iteration of this 1.5-kilogram pie is a nostalgic apple and custard number.
Encased in a buttery pastry shell, apples gently cooked with cinnamon and cardamom are layered over a vanilla custard base, then topped with a crunchy oat-and-almond crumble. Yet don't expect the HUMBLE Pie to stay the same for long.
The idea behind this flaky treat is that it evolves with what's best and in season. Designed to be baked at home and shared with friends and fam, serve it warm, on its own, with vanilla ice cream or even fresh cream. And you can go back for seconds — each pie serves eight full-sized slices.
Keen to get one to round out a Mother's Day feast? Pre-orders are now open, with pickup available from Monday, May 4, with a minimum of 48 hours' notice required. There'll also be a small quantity of pies available in-store from the freezer at HUMBLE's Surry Hills store.
Priced at $72 per pie, you can also sample a slice with fresh cream at HUMBLE Surry Hills for $14. This way, you can treat mum in the comfort of your own home, pulling an expert-made pie from the oven, or head out for a special Mother's Day dessert to ring in the occasion.
HUMBLE Bakery's Humble Pie is now available for pre-order, with a limited quantity available in-store at HUMBLE Surry Hills. Head to the website for more information.
