Bake Me a Wish! began with a simple idea: making it easy to send delicious desserts anywhere in the country. It all started in 2004 when the founder wanted to surprise his mom with tiramisu from a New York City bakery but couldn't find anyone willing to deliver it cross-country. Today, Bake Me a Wish! has grown into a trusted name in dessert delivery, offering a wide selection of treats like cakes, brownies, pies, and more. Whether you're marking a special occasion or just craving something sweet, they make it easy to enjoy gourmet desserts, no matter where you are.

Just under a dozen pie flavors

What's on the menu at Bake Me a Wish! when it comes to pies? Have a look, and try not to drool:

• Berry Cheesecake ($55)
• Country Apple ($49)
• Bountiful Blueberry ($48)
• Classic Pecan ($50)
• Banana Cream ($52)
• Lemon Meringue ($55)
• Sour Cherry ($48)
• Strawberry Rhubarb ($48)
• Coconut Cream ($52)

You may also spot seasonal pies on the menu, depending on the time of year you're looking to have them delivered. For example, when we looked at the list in December, there were 10 pies, but returning in January yielded only 9. (If we recall correctly, it's pumpkin that disappeared...)

Ships 2-Day or Overnight, even to Hawaii and Alaska

Save 15% on your pie order (or anything else) when you sign up for the email list at Bake Me a Wish! That's a smart idea, because your shipping costs are likely to wind up between $15.99 to $27.99. On the lower end of the range, you're getting 2-Day Shipping for deliveries Wednesday through Friday, but you can also upgrade to Overnight for $22.99, 2-Day or Overnight Saturday delivery for $27.99. And, bear in mind that not all pies are eligible for 2-Day Delivery; Lemon Meringue, for instance, only ships via overnight service (due to the delicate nature of the pie). It's something you need to factor in when you're looking at what your pie delivery will ultimately wind up costing, but the fees here are comparable with rival retailers. But, a bit of good news: if you're trying to ship pies to Hawaii or Alaska, Bake Me a Wish! is one of the only pie shops on our list who can get it done; it'll cost an extra $25.

Pies can be refrigerated or frozen

How about the "care” and storage of your pie? You'll find those details in each pie's description (helpfully, it's under the "Details” dropdown...). For example, the Bountiful Blueberry pie should be eaten upon arrival for the freshest taste, but it can also be stored in the fridge in an airtight container for up to 5 days, or stored in the freezer for up to 2 months.

Get rewarded for buying pies

Don't forget to choose an occasion when you're selecting your preferred delivery date. Your Bake Me a Wish! pie comes in an elegant gift box and with a personalized card. Also, if you're thinking of becoming a perpetual pie provider - in other words, you're going to send out pies on the regular - you'll love that there's a rewards program here. Earn up to 2.5 points or every dollar you spend, and get a $5 discount for every 100 points you redeem.

Thousands of 5-star ratings

One of the reasons Bake Me a Wish! lands at the top of our list is the abundance of (positive) customer reviews. When you look at other pie delivery options, you often won't see any shopper feedback that can confirm that the desserts are delicious and arrive in good condition. Not so with this pie shop. Country Apple Pie? Over 1,000 reviews averaging 4.62 stars. Lemon Meringue? 4.59 stars over 760 ratings. Even the "least reviewed” pie here still has 330 customer ratings (and averages an equally respectable 4.59 stars).

Plenty of compliments, despite a few complaints

But, we always like to check the comments on third-party sources as well - just to make sure it lines up with what the retailer claims on its own website. Bake Me a Wish! has no problems there: the Better Business Bureau has given this pie company an "A-” rating, with only five complaints in the last three years. We will point out that the feedback on Trustpilot is a little less enthusiastic, with some shoppers having issues with the way the delivery company handled the items (not the fault of Bake Me a Wish!) and reporting a handful of quality control issues. But, for the same flavors that a few customers said were bland, we found hundreds of recent compliments as well. We'll take a pie with hundreds (or thousands) of positive reviews and a handful of negative ones over ones with zero feedback anyday.

Fresh and on time, guaranteed

Plus, Bake Me a Wish! guarantees that your pie will arrive on time and fresh, or they'll give you your money back. That's a win over rivals who make no such promises: another big point in this pie delivery company's favor.

#1 pie delivery company on our list

The next time you're looking to order a pie and you absolutely need to count on it getting there on time and being delicious, don't miss Bake Me a Wish! You'll find plenty of flavors to choose from, guided by reviews and comments from previous pie purchasers, and you're guaranteed to be delighted. It was a tight race, but Bake Me a Wish! edged out the competition to earn a first place finish on our list.
