The Trust Project What is this? FARGO — Economic uncertainty is even getting "baked into" the holiday season this year. It's the busiest time of year for many bakeries, but there's a question this year: How much product should they buy? ADVERTISEMENT WDAY News visited Nichole's Fine Pastry & Cafe in downtown Fargo on Thursday, Nov. 12. Owner Nichole Hansen says they're expecting to bake hundreds of pies for Thanksgiving orders — pumpkin, Dutch apple, key lime and more. She says regardless of the economy, the goal is to never be sold out of any pie flavor. "Because we offer all these flavors and we can't really stop people from ordering certain flavors. It's the management of the prep work and time with the flavors and when they go in the oven. So everybody gets a fresh pie for Thanksgiving," Hansen said. You can pre-order until Saturday, Nov. 21.
