Quick answer
donpieshop.com has five free pie buying tools: a party pie calculator (how many personal and whole pies), an order planner (when to order, collect and reheat, with calendar reminders), a pie type chooser, a buying channel comparison, and checklists that save your ticks in your browser. Every tool shows the rules it uses.
Most pie orders raise the same four questions: how many, when, which kind, and how to get them. Each tool below answers one. They run in your browser, show their working, and send nothing anywhere.
Party pie calculator
The party pie calculator turns a guest count, an appetite and a savoury and sweet mix into a number of personal and whole pies, with a line-by-line explanation. Use it for parties, meetings and family meals.
Pie order planner
The pie order planner turns an event date and serving time into a timeline: when to order, when to reconfirm, when to collect or receive delivery, when to reheat and when leftovers go back in the fridge. It can export reminders to your calendar.
Pie type chooser
The chooser asks three questions (occasion, eaters, reheating) and ranks the pie types that fit. Try it here:
Pie type chooser
Three quick questions, then the pie types that suit your table.
Quick rules if you would rather skip the questions
- Office and meetings: personal chicken pies, plus a few vegetarian ones, labelled.
- Parties and birthdays: whole chicken pies for the table, personal pies for grazing, and one sweet pie as the dessert.
- Family dinners and festive meals: shepherd's pie trays or beef pies, which need an oven to reheat well.
- Gifts: whole fruit or sweet pies travel best and need no reheating.
- Freezer stock: frozen bake-at-home pies.
- No reheating possible: personal pies eaten within 2 hours of arrival, or sweet pies.
Buying channel comparison
Walk-in, pre-order pickup, bakery delivery or a delivery app? The comparison lights up the best channel for what matters to you. It lives on the pickup versus delivery guide and the home page.
Checklists that remember your ticks
Several guides carry checklists that save your progress in your browser, so you can come back to them:
| Checklist | Where | Use it for |
|---|---|---|
| Bulk pie order checklist | Bulk and corporate orders | Orders of 100 pies or more |
| Office pie order checklist | Office pantry pies | Meetings and pantry spreads |
| Party pie checklist | Party and birthday pies | Birthdays and gatherings |
| Before you pay for delivery | Pie delivery | Any delivery order |
| Reheating checklist | Store, transport and reheat | Getting pies hot and safe |
A note on the rules
The tools use rules of thumb, not any bakery’s policy. Lead times are suggested buffers based on what Singapore bakeries publish; portion rates are our own planning rules of thumb. Always confirm cut-offs, prices and fees with the bakery you order from.
