Raul's Dream

It all started in 1978 when Raul Quintero moved his family from Pompano Beach to Lake Worth, Florida with a dream for a future. He bought an old cake shop located on Dixie Highway and there it all began.

Raul set the standard for The Upper Crust. Pies would be deep dish. Crusts needed to be flaky. You wouldn't find any canned ingredients in Raul's pies. Guess what? You still won't find them in our pies today.

A Generational Vision

After many years of hard work and determination Raul passed the reins over to his son, Rudy, who has been baking pies ever since.Some would ask, “How does a bakery that ONLY makes pies last for so long?” The answer is consistency. In a world where everything is mass produced, we still make our pies the old-fashioned way.

After many years of making quality pies and distributing them throughout other retail outlets as well as the shop on Dixie Hwy, the Upper Crust is now a Palm Beach County icon. Mention the name The Upper Crust to anyone and you will surely hear, “Oh they have the best pies!”, or “I love their pies!”, or even “They make pies better than my grandmother!”
