Affair: Brooklyn's Four & Twenty Blackbirds in LA

When: Saturday, August 5 - Sunday, August 6, 2017 @ 11AM-11PM

Hot Spot: Jeni’s Splendid Ice Creams Venice, Los Angeles, CA

Deets: Brooklyn’s Four & Twenty Blackbirds pie bakery will be arriving in LA for one weekend only – August 5th and 6th. Following a fruitful collaboration last year between the pie baking sister co-owners Melissa and Emily Elsen and Jeni’s Splendid Ice Creams founder Jeni Britton Bauer, Four & Twenty Blackbirds will be back in LA, this time on the west side. Customers at Jeni’s Venice shop will be able to order pies by the slice or whole, served a la mode with a scoop of ice cream or enjoyed at home with pints to go. Two new pie flavors created for the LA collaboration, sunny Shaker Citrus and seasonal Stone Fruit Granola, will be served alongside Four & Twenty Blackbirds’ signatures Salty Honey and Matcha Custard.

The collaboration is part of Jeni’s ongoing effort to give like-minded good food producers a chance to showcase their work in a new setting. In April of 2016, the first Jeni’s x Four & Twenty Blackbirds pop-up brought their pies to Jeni’s Los Feliz location. The Elsens are thrilled to work with the Jeni’s team again to bring their pies, normally only available in New York, to the heart of Venice beach for one weekend only.

About Four & Twenty Blackbirds
Melissa Elsen and Emily Elsen are the sister duo behind the wildly popular Brooklyn pie company Four & Twenty Blackbirds. Growing up in small town Hecla, South Dakota (population: 230), they learned to appreciate the art of pie-making from their grandmother. Blending culinary traditions and handmade pie-making technique with their passion for local seasonal ingredients and creative flavor combinations, they have created a local Brooklyn enterprise that now includes the original Gowanus pie shop (opened in 2010), a cafe in the Brooklyn Public Library, a Prospect Heights pie counter, a seasonal storefront in Long Island and the acclaimed The Four & Twenty Blackbirds Pie Book: Uncommon Recipes from the Celebrated Brooklyn Pie Shop.

About Jeni’s Splendid Ice Creams
Jeni’s Splendid Ice Creams was founded in 2002 by James Beard Award winning cookbook author Jeni Britton Bauer. Britton Bauer’s ahead-of-the-trend vision—using whole ingredients and dairy from grass-pastured cows, rather than synthetic flavorings and commodity ice cream mix—coupled with inspired flavors, sparked the artisan ice cream movement more than a decade before it would become a top food trend. Today, Jeni’s is a Certified B Corporation with 31 scoop shops, an online shop at jenis.com, and distribution in top grocery stores across the country.
