Pie Bake Off Party and the Pie Face Game

Sponsored Article

June 30, 2016

Are you hosting an outdoor event and want a fun addition that will appeal to all ages?  I have an usual suggestion for you!

I’m blessed with a number of friends who are great bakers, and recently hosted a Pie Bake-Off Party. It was a good excuse to get everyone together, and frankly a genius way to surround myself with homemade pies without baking a thing! The result was 16 delicious entries at a laid-back lawn party with guests of all ages. We chose 5 guests to act as pie judges, and rounded out the event with a BBQ and some fun props. There were fruit pies, cream pies, and even spinach pies! 

I always like to put things out for children when I entertain, and this party was no different. I had some lawn toys available, but what really got everyone laughing was the Pie Face game. This hilarious game by Hasbro is a game of chance, as players spin and dial a handle the designated number of clicks, which may randomly result in a pie in the face! The “pie” is actually delicious whip cream. so we found some guests hoping to get hit by the pie!  The kids – and adults – both enjoyed the suspense and laughter this game provides, and I liked it was fun for all ages.  https://youtu.be/C4w5mTVkvmM

We had the game available to play at the party, and another one to offer as first prize for the best pie.
I will definitely be bringing this game out for my next outdoor event! 
So what pies won? They were all a hit and resulted in a delicious taste taste for all, but the top scores came in for cherry, sweet potato and coconut cream pies. And, I think it's safe to say a “people’s choice” was awarded for the Pie Face Game! Keep it in mind for your next outdoor event. 

 

Hasbro is a sponsor of Macaroni Kid, and they sent me two Pie Face Games for the purpose of this event and review, but all opinions are mine! Pie Face is available for a retail price of $19.99 at retailers or online at Hasbro.com, and you can learn more about Pie Face at www.Hasbro.com
