I had previously discovered Golden Crust at the Whistler Farmer’s Market a few years back and had become a huge fan of their handheld pocket fruit pies (so good!). When I was headed up to Whistler, I made it a point to stop by their bricks and mortars store in Squamish.
Golden Crust sells a variety sweet and savoury baked goods including fruit pies, pock pies, cinnamon buns, butter tarts, cookies, savoury pies, tourtiere, sausage rolls and so forth.
Their pocked pies are priced at $4 each and come in fillings like strawberry rhubarb, apple, cherry, blackberry apple, and raspberry apple.
Their pies have a perfect, buttery, and flaky golden crust. The fruit fillings were delightful – a bit tart and definitely not too sweet. The crust to filling ratio was just right. These pies really had a lovely homemade feel. My favourite fillings were the strawberry rhubarb and apple.
I will definitely revisit them for their handheld pies. You can also find them at various Farmer’s Markets based on their schedule here.
