The History of Troyer's Home Pantry

At Troyer’s Dutch Market, we take pride in offering baked goods that feel like home—and that’s exactly what you get with every item from Troyer’s Home Pantry. Based in Apple Creek, Ohio, this family-owned bakery has been crafting traditional pies, cookies, breads, and desserts for decades, using simple ingredients and time-honored Amish baking methods.

A Tradition of Home-Baked Quality

Founded in 1991, Troyer’s Home Pantry began with a single goal: to provide high-quality baked goods using recipes rooted in Amish and Mennonite heritage. What started as a modest bakery in Apple Creek has grown into a respected regional brand, serving retailers, farm markets, and customers across Ohio and beyond. Their commitment to quality, freshness, and handmade craftsmanship hasn’t changed—and it’s why we’re proud to carry their products in our store.

From Apple Creek to Your Neighborhood

When you pick up a pie from our market’s bakery section, you’re not just grabbing dessert—you’re getting a slice of rural Ohio tradition. Troyer’s Home Pantry specializes in a wide variety of classic pies, from flaky double-crust apple to smooth, creamy peanut butter and everything in between. But it doesn’t stop at pies—our shelves also feature their seasonal cookies, soft breads, specialty desserts, and more.

Each item is made in small batches, just like you’d bake at home, with no artificial preservatives. That means you get the freshest, most authentic flavor possible—just like grandma used to make.

What Are Shelf-Stable Pies?

Alongside their refrigerated pies, Troyer’s Home Pantry also offers shelf-stable pies—which means they don’t need to be refrigerated or frozen until after opening.

How Do They Stay Fresh?

These pies are fully baked and made with care using traditional methods that naturally preserve freshness. By controlling moisture levels in the crust and filling, and baking the pies thoroughly, they can be safely stored at room temperature without spoiling. There are no artificial preservatives—just simple, time-tested baking techniques.

Why Choose Shelf-Stable?

Shelf-stable pies are:

  • Convenient for gifting or traveling
  • Great for stocking up for holidays
  • Easy to store without using fridge or freezer space
  • Ready-to-eat or warm-and-serve at any time

You’ll find favorites like Apple, Blueberry, and more on our bakery shelves at Troyer’s Dutch Market. Same homemade flavor—just a little more convenient.
