Delightful Foods

This is a family owned family run family recipes pie business that has been serving the bay area community for decades. They have 19flavors of pies that you can honestly enjoy hot or cold, because they are just that good. Every time I visit here I have a hard time deciding now which flavor to get. Do I go with what I know for sure I enjoy or do I try a new flavor of pie? That's just how exciting all of this is. The crew is extremely nice and sociable and will offer you samples if not their own personal favorite flavors. You can really taste the home baked goodness in each of their pies. Some of my standouts are the peach, Mango and cream cheese, and the key lime. You sometimes feel like pies are a holiday type treat, but delightful foods makes you feel lucky that they are at Farmers Markets all year long. You can find them in San Francisco, Oakland, Richmond, and now Vallejo. I'm sure there are many more places they are bringing their baked goodness perfection too, so ask when you see them or visit their website!

Delightful Foods is one of the absolute best bakeries in Oakland. I first fell in love with their bean pies and sweet potato pies two years ago. I use to wake up early on Sundays to get a few at my local farmers market before they would run out. I didn't think anything could top what I've already experienced, but recently I tried their coconut cream pie and feel in love all over again. I loved it so much that I decided to make a special trip to their bakery located in Oakland. The first thing I noticed after the wonderful smell of their butter crust was how clean the inside was. It's not a traditional looking bakery, but they get the job done in there and deliver quality deserts. Also, the customer service is amazing. I reached out to them via text and they responded immediately. I put in an order and was able to request it ready for pick up the next day. They also make ginger and hibiscus drinks. They aren't strong with regards to the flavor of ginger, but they are sweet and refreshing. I will forever be a customer to this establishment and would highly recommend others to experience their amazing deserts. They truly are delightful!

Went to the Vallejo Farmer's Market today and purchased 3 bottles of their ginger juice. Rafia's African Ginger Juice $6. My stomach has been feeling nauseous, BUT THE JUICE HEALED MY TUMMY. Perfect amount of cane sugar. Thank you for your great drinks.

Happened upon them at Grand Lake Farmer's Market this morning. The free samples of sweet potato pie reeled me in - super buttery crust (you have to like butter to like these pies) and adorable latticed palm-sized pies. Got an apple for my husband and strawberry rhubarb (my weakness) for myself, $9 each, and although the packaging said 4 and 5oz respectively, I think they were more than that! A dense, not too sweet, but rich pie that tastes like a hug!

I caught them at the Stonestown Farmers Market yesterday on Sunday. I nearly missed their tent as it was staged off to the side. As I was waiting for hubby, I took a last look around the market. Glancing over I noticed the canvas tent and it said pies & cookies. That was enough to draw me over. Yesterday there were 19 different pies to choose from. We went with three mini pies - key lime, banana cream, and apple. My key lime pie was delish. Sweet, creamy, and tart. The pie crust was crusty. Hubby enjoyed the apple mini pie and daughter liked the banana cream pie. I'm going to look for their tent next Sunday. Hopefully it'll be located in a better location.

Adorable, delicious pie! Got the banana cream today and loved it. Will definitely want to try more when I see them next.

Delightful Foods has a stand at the farmers market in front of Kaiser in Oakland on Fridays. They have a large selection of pies, both mini and regular sizes, ranging from fruit pies to key lime and sweet potato. I tried a sample of peach pie, which was really tasty, but ended up with a mini strawberry rhubarb pie. The gentlemen who helped me was very friendly and suggested reheating the pie in the oven at 350 degrees for 10 minutes. He also mentioned the pies will last about 4 days in the fridge if you want to save some dessert for later! The pie was delicious with a buttery crust and the filling was just sweet enough. Looking forward to trying some of their other flavors the next time I see them!

I came across this stall at the Vallejo Farmers Market, I'm a baker so I'm picky when choosing pastries. I went with the coconut cream pie, it was delicious! Buttery crust, nice light layer of coconut flakes followed by a layer of coconut cream. The young man at the stall was very friendly.

was so disappointed. I tried coconut cream pie and pecan pie while at oaklands first Friday. first both pies crust was so over cooked. The coconut was no cream pie. i had several try the pecan pie and we all agreed did not taste like pecan pie.

Stumbled across Delightful Foods in San Francisco this weekend at Clement Streets Farmers Market & the owner was passing out samples of their top selling pies 1) sweet potato 2) apple 3) key lime & 4) lemon cheese. I bought 3 pies & OMG the lemon cheese is soooo good like something you'd taste in a Michelin rated restaurant & the sweet potato pie is also very very good I should've bought more perfectly sized & priced but more so the delicious fresh taste! My daughter knew exactly who I was talking about as she also had their sweet potato pie at a few street fairs in Oakland. Definitely look out for them at upcoming street fairs near you!
