Chocolate chip cookie pie? A sneak peek behind Table Talk Pie’s ‘secret’ flavors in testing
By Michelle Williams | Michelle.Williams@MassLive.com
More than 80 years after the company was founded, Worcester-based Table Talk Pies is expanding. On the heels of a new factory in Shrewsbury, the company is moving forward with a new plant in South Worcester and is opening its first retail store in more than 20 years. The company now produces more than 3 million pies a week.
But will they add new pie flavors?
Company President and third-generation owner Harry Kukkinis said the company is constantly testing new potential flavors with its own internal research and development.
During a recent visit to the company, MassLive got a sneak peek at two possibilities in the works: A chocolate chip cookie pie — labeled “The Tollhouse Formula” and a chocolate pecan pie.
Don’t expect to see either on the grocery store shelf too soon. Table Talk is still in the early stages of testing these flavors, which Kukkinis said were suggested by customers.
