It’s way smaller than I thought and it isn’t as good as the sweet dessert pies. Won’t buy these minis anymore.
Gifted 2 slices of Elijah pies recently and it exceeded our expectations! Even my 91 yo Mom loved it! So it must be good 👍
Finally trying the HAPPY BOX ($62) from Elijah Pies!
A Happy Box Dessert Pies Tart as my birthday cake! (Yes, I am more of a TART person than cake person!)
8 different signature flavours all in one box so you can enjoy the best of all world with your family and friends! My family actually separated out each tart into equal portions so that we can try all 8 flavours!
So here, I present to you my order ranking of the dessert pies according to my taste preference:
-Honey Chrysanthemum: This was my TOP favourite! It was so so good! Had it as the first piece, and up until the last piece, I still cant get over how good this tart was! Fragrant chrysanthemum, naturally sweet with honey undertones.
-Yuzu Meringue: My second favourite! Zesty curd with yuzu juice infused, and topped with lightly torched meringue kisses.
-Wild Berry Lavender: This was the pie which attracted me to elijah pies years ago (yes, i have been eyeing elijah pies for a few years now before I finally tried it this year, twice somemore HAHA)! I was initially afraid that the lavender taste will be too strong, hence I did not dare to buy one whole pie itself! Having eaten just one slice, it was the right balance! As it has real berries in it with yoghurt, there was a fruity taste, which balanced out the very subtle lavender hint. So this is actually quite good!
-Speculoos Hojicha: Two of my favourite ingredients all in one!
-Lime Thyme: This was slightly too sour for my liking!
-Nutella: This was unlike the typical sweet nutella, as this was mixed with dark chocolate! Hence, if you are not a dark chocolate fan, this is not for you too!
-Matcha Latte: When I got my box of elijah pies earlier, I spent a long time deciding between Matcha Latte and Speculoos Hojicha (but eventually went for speculoos hojicha)! So happy to finally try this now! Hehe, and luckily for me, the verdict that was out was that I didnt fancy this matcha latte pie! Didnt fancy the meringue pearls layer, and I thought the matcha custard didnt have a strong enough matcha taste
-Raspberry Ripple: I am sorry but this was my least liked tart of all (surprisingly)! While it was the top favourite of some of my family members. This consists of cream cheese with raspberry compote and topped with pistachio. For me, the cream cheese layer was way too thick to my liking, and I dont really fancy creamy tart/cake!
If I will to buy Elijah Pies again, it will be one whole honey chrysanthemum pie!!
Wanted to get this happy box a few months ago, but it was a seasonal item that was not sold all the time, hence when we saw it a few days ago, we immediately carted it out! It is still available now, so act fast!
When you don’t know which pie flavour to pick - Elijah Pies’ Happy Box comes with a slice of each of 8 flavours.

Not a fan of their tart crust unfortunately, we thought it could be a lot more firm, crisp and consistent in its texture. They do have interesting flavours like Speculoos Hojicha, Wild Berry Lavendar & Honey Chrysantemum. Our personal preference among these was the Matcha Latte, that albeit a bit sweet, had quite nice intense matcha notes.
Finally got to try since they don't sell single slices
It's really good, I'm surprised the blueberry filling tasted so full and the lavender comes through nicely, just at the edge of coming across as too floral. The base was good too, suitable hardness and not too messy to eat.
I can't rmb how good windowsill's pies were but lately their multilayered base is not up my alley at all(did they always have such a bad base?) I firmly believe Elijah is much more superior currently
It's not v good, there's no easy way to say it. I guess as bites it's fine but the shape and everything is hardly a pie.
Managed to get @elijahpies' Happy Box during the last launch and got to try Hojicha Speculoos and Wild Berry Lavender. It's good if you want to try many different flavours but I think the pies lacked consistency in terms of how much pie crust there was and that affected the taste quite a bit for me. I liked both flavours I tried but I enjoyed wild berry lavender more because of the more balanced filling to crust ratio 😋
I've been wanting to try the pies from @elijahpies for ages! When they announced "The Happy Box" which consisted of 8 different flavours of their pie range - I hesisted no more and swooped in to make my order. Finallyyyy y'all.
The Happy Box included:
◾Hojicha Speculoos
A specially crafted exclusive for The Happy Box, the Hojicha Speculoos took me back to the many Hojicha Lattes I've had at Starbucks. Which is a good thing - strong Earthy hojicha paired with a Speculoos biscuit base. Yum.
◾Wild Berry Lavender
Their coveted signature pie flavour that is the Wild Berry Lavender - I was excited to try this one as it's literally what Elijah Pies is all about. The berries, yogurt and hint of lavender was sublime - though I wasn't a huge fan of the regular tart base. Perhaps it would fare better on a biscuit tart base.
◾Raspberry Ripple
This is my childhood right here. Growing up, I loved Raspberry Ripple ice-cream. And dang, with raspberry compote and cream cheese filling on a buttery biscuit - this definitely hit the spot and brought back the nostalgia.
◾Matcha Latte
I figured I would be sick of Matcha by now but this surprisingly ended up being one of my top favourites from the bunch!
◾Earl Grey Rose
Another delicious pie in my book, the Earl Grey paired perfectly with the subtle hints of rose. Topped with swiss buttercream, the pink pie crust also worked well with the entire ensemble.
◾Nutella
Hard to go wrong with the simple chocolatety hazelnut goodness of Nutella. With a biscuit base, this was *chef kiss*.
◾Honey Chrysanthemum
While it looked as pretty as its Wild Berry counterpart, sadly this ended up being my least favourite of the bunch. I found the flavour to be a bit odd to be honest and I felt like it didn't taste like Chrysanthemum at all.
◾Pandan Coconut
I actually didn't fancy the Pandan Coconut as well. While it's a combination of flavours I love, it had a strong yet weird coconut aftertaste unfortunately.
Well, I'm so glad to have finally tried Elijah Pies. While there were some hits and some misses, it's still pretty good pie in my book - and oh so pretty! My heart is still with Windowsill Pies though. Oops.
Bittersweet farewell and birthday celebration for 2 colleagues - friends today.
The fancy looking treat was fit for the occasion as I feebly attempt to add “lyrical” undertones to the bittersweet honey chrysanthemum bite that was the emotion I’m sure most felt with our close colleague’s departure.
Sob story aside, beneath the sweet white chocolate honey glaze was a filling I couldn’t make out with a strong enough note of the flower tea. I am full praises of the tart base from Elijah Pie but would order their other flavours next time as this one was slight too sweet.
It already looks so amazing but it still tastes better than it looks! Ordered this for my birthday and wasn’t disappointed.
Ordered these mini pies from @elijahpies and we enjoyed it! The flavours for this box are yuzu meringue, wild berry lavender and earl grey rose. I liked all the flavours and yuzu meringue was my favourite! 😋 I last had pies from Elijah Pies when it was in a stall in NTU and it's still as nice as I remembered it to be ☺️
Their tart is great for all occasions, especially for afternoon tea! I lux it up a little by adding a scoop of raspberry ripple ice cream which I got from the ice cream uncle downstairs #supportlocal Raspberry-ception ✨ absolutely adore the raspberry fragrance off every bite, and the saltiness from the crust to balance it off.

For peeps wanting pretty and delicious pies, @elijahpies is a great choice. Each bitesize pie may be petite in appearance but delivers an impressive flavour burst. I also really loved the designs of the pies. My personal favourite has to be the wildberry lavender pie. It is not too sweet with traces of berry swirls and floral scent. Their pies also come in large sizes so you can try out the flavours from this sampling box first before deciding.
Have been eyeing their IG worthy pies for a while now, and wanted to wait for a special occasion to get it. Finally got down to ordering this Raspberry Ripple Pie for my dad, and it was definitely a hit with my family.
It’s a very light dessert, with every mouth bringing about a subtle raspberry fragrance, while the saltiness from the crust cuts the richness of the pie. The crust, while not crunchy per se, still provided a nice bite to the pastry. Those roasted pistachios littered above it were the cherry on top. This is perfect with a cup of tea, and I wouldn’t mind ordering their Nutella Pie in future as a guilty pleasure!
