Wholly Wholesome Bake At Home Cherry Pie Review

I love to bake! But, sometimes I just don't have the time to bake the way I would like to. I was excited about the opportunity to try Wholly Wholesome products.

Wholly Wholesome Baked Goods are made without: Artificial Flavors, Colors, Preservatives or Additives • Hydrogenated Fats, Oils or Trans Fatty Acids • Conventionally Refined Sugars or Synthetic Sweeteners • Bleached or Bromated Flours • Irradiated Ingredients

There I was in Whole Foods trying to decide which item to try. I had a hard time deciding. But, I finally selected the Cherry pie.


The ingredients are: Cherries, Organic Wheat Flour, Organic Cane Sugar, Vegetable Oil (Palm Oil, Soybean Oil), Water, Rice Starch, Organic Whole Wheat Flour, Sea Salt.
That is an amazingly short list of ingredients for a pre-made pie!

The baking instructions are easy to follow and in under a hour, you a have a delicious freshly baked pie.

I have to admit that I am generally not a fan of pre-made pies. For me personally, the crust usually tastes and has the texture of cardboard. But, Wholly Wholesome really changed my mind.

The crust was buttery and flaky. The crust really has an amazing flavor and there is no butter in it! The filling was amazing as well! Cherry pie is one of my favorite types of pie. But sometimes it can be overly sweet. The Wholly Wholesome filling had just the right amount of sweetness and tartness. It really tasted like fresh cherries.


I loved it, and my family loved it as well. We gobbled it up!

I definitely would consider buying more Wholly Wholesome products. Wholly Wholesome baked products would be a great item to keep in your freezer. Just in case you need a quick dessert, especially with the holidays just around the corner.

  1. I have not tried any of Wholly Wholesome's pre-made pies, but have used their crusts for years to make pumpkin pies. Great product! I'll definitely have to check out their pre-made selection the next time we make the journey to a Whole Foods store.
