  • Blackbird in a Pie

    I finally broke down and bought a pie-bird and for the first time my fruit pie did not bubble over onto my oven floor! Who knew it could be so simple? The pie crust didn't have areas of yucky baked on goo at the edges, there was a neat little circle where the bird had sat and it all looked beautiful all because I put that little bird in the center of the pie, arranged the fruit around it, cut a small circle in the center of the top crust and laid it over the bird and it allowed the steam to escape the pie without making the usual mess.

  • Excellent pie birds...good quality and work well

    These little pie birds are great fun and can be used individually or in multiples to vent steam from both fruit and savory pies. The Norpro birdies are traditional and fun..maybe I need a whole flock of them for a BIG pie and a party! Good buy in sets of 3, 4, etc.

  • A Must-Have for Bakers!

    Although I've baked many pies over the years, I had never heard of this until I watched a British baking program. Not only does it keep juicy pies from boiling over, it helps to raise the center of the crust so the crust doesn't get soggy. I made a turkey and ham meat pie with lots of sauce in a 10" square pan, and the top crust (a puff pastry) came out beautifully! Just to be sure, I did put a baking sheet on the next rack down under the pan, but there was hardly a spot on it, so no over bubbling to mess up my oven. This is made of thick ceramic and would probably break or chip if dropped, but I keep it in the box when not in use. This is a very simple yet extremely effective (and inexpensive) tool for making your pies look professionally baked!

  • Pie Vent, well made, reasonably priced & looks good.

    Nicely glazed ceramic pie chimney/vent. Easy to use and less leakage around baking dish. My wife said she didn't want it originally - but now uses it all the time as it oviates much of the burnt-on hard crust around baked dishes, this considerably lessens the usual cleaning/scraping/soaking wash-up operations. Good value - recommended. Rob.

  • One, not four and twenty blackbirds baked in a pie.

    This little bird worked well. My blueberry pie did not bubble over and was baked perfectly. I was so glad to find this little trick. I had never heard of it before

  • good pie bird

    nice item, good looking, easy to clean - it is , of course, fragile when dripped.

  • Pie Bird

    This little gadget is perfect for venting steam from baked goods so that the bottom crust does not turn soggy. It is a throwback to my grandmother's baking secrets.

  • So fun!

    It was fun to use & conversation piece to bring to table. Also worked well at releasing built up steam & preventing soggy pies!

  • Cute and collectable

    I'm not using it for pies only for collection. Like it and looks just like Alton Brown's
