A New Frontier: Proud Pie Announces Partnership with Dish Society
Beloved pie maker Proud Pie, known to many in Katy for mouthwatering pastries and community-centered events, has announced a new partnership with Dish Society, a restaurant with roots in Austin and Houston that's dedicated to farm-to-table meals. The partnership comes as a welcome surprise for the community who faced the unwelcome news of Proud Pie's shop closure earlier this month.
In a statement given by Proud Pie, they announced, "We have signed an incredible partnership deal with, are you ready? Dish Society! Trent and Aaron from Dish Society contacted me about keeping the Proud Pie name alive and with their help, we are gonna be able to do just that." The announcement reveals their plans to revive their famed pies, starting with their State Fair Caramel Apple and Key Lime pies in the Katy location of Dish Society located in LaCenterra.
Proud Pie's mission to use fresh, real ingredients in their pies seems to align perfectly with Dish Society's commitment to deliver the best in southern-sourced cuisine. Proud Pie ownership shared, "My pastry chef, Michelle, [has] been hired by them. She's been busy training chefs from their culinary department to bake pies the Proud Pie way. Our plan is to start small and slowly so we can focus on attention to detail and getting it right."

Dish Society, Houston's farm-to-table restaurant, prides itself on providing quality and fresh dishes with ingredients thoughtfully sourced from local suppliers and ranchers. With numerous successful locations across Houston and an expansion into Austin, they continue to maintain their commitment to the local agricultural community. This collaboration is an optimistic step forward for Proud Pie, who faced financial difficulties leading to the closure of their beloved shop, but can now look forward to a fresh start in an equally invested and community-focused partner.
The return of Proud Pie’s well-loved pies to the Katy community, thanks to this partnership, is undoubtedly a sweet triumph for the dessert aficionados and fans of Proud Pie. Their first batches for pre-order whole pies will be available for pick up starting Tuesday, July 30th, with slices available on a first come, first served basis starting Tuesday, July 30th at 10:00 AM.
