Pie Post - Forgotten Feelings Pie

This pie is composed of everything sweets. From its cotton candy insides to its frosted exterior with M&Ms, it is everything one would expect from first dates, or trips to the movie theater. 

The pie consists of:
  • 4 small bags of Valentine’s Day M&Ms
  • a bag of popcorn
  • hunks of cotton candy
  • a few servings of ice cream sundaes
  • a cup of coffee
  • and dough to mix it all together

When the pie is out of the oven, it is steaming and looks ready to burst. The sides of the pie are blackened and the skin looks like its about to crumble. Decorate the top with large hearings of frosting and draw, using red frosting, a heart across the top in half. 

This pie is used to symbolize a love that has been broken. The insides are made from the foods one and his or her significant other has shared before in the past. Happier times have now become moments of regret and anger. The pie itself bulges at the sides not only because the ingredients are so unorthodox, but because they symbolize all the feelings of repression of emotions one may undergo at the end of a relationship. 


By eating the pie, symbolically, one is swallowing those fears and pains; he or she is moving forward and looking ahead.

  1. Grade: Check (a couple of grammatical errors, but good overall. Great symbolism!)
