National Boston cream pie day is celebrated on October 23 every year. Boston cream pie was invented by a French Chef named Sanzian in Boston, Massachusetts.In 1996, Boston cream pie became the official desert of Massachusetts in a bill sponsored by Norton High School. This bill got rid of both the Indian Pudding and Toll House cookies as the states official desert. Today Boston Cream Pie is also a popular doughnut, coffee, and ice cream flavor.
Although it is called a pie, Boston cream pie is actually a cake. It consists of two round layers of sponge cake with a thick vanilla custard filling. It is usually coated with chocolate but it can also be coated with confectionary sugar. The desert is usually served in wedges just like a pie. Enjoy a slice of the Boston cream pie today and enjoy your National holiday!
