Avis at the Leesburg location
Featured in Southern Living's The South's Best Pies, June 2010: Avis Renshaw (“Mom” of “Mom’s Apple Pie Company”) makes delicious desserts throughout the year, but her pies really reach their peak in summer when the berries ripen. That’s when Avis offers her blackberry and strawberry specialties made from fruit picked fresh from the farm she owns with her husband, Steven Cox, near Leesburg. She piles berries on top of a cool combination of cream cheese and fruit glaze spread on a thin bottom crust; then she covers everything with more berry glaze. Avis and Steven founded Mom’s in 1981, and now they sell pies whole or by the slice at two Virginia locations.

They have the best sour cherry pie we've ever tasted. And the macaroons are just right, crispy on the outside and creamy in the middle. Both provide a sweet ending to a perfect autumn day, Southern Living, November 2002
Best of Loudoun Bakery, Loudoun Times-Mirror, 1999 to present many times
Family-owned, Mom's was established in 1981 and employs four generations…All the apples for Mom's pies come from the Shenandoah Valley… The apple pie has a flaky crust, baked to a deeper golden brown than most, and the filling has pleasantly firm apple slices that retain their shape during baking. It's a good pie that could pass for homemade, The Washington Post, November 18, 2004
"Best of the U.S. in Your Backyard" award for Boston Cream Pie, Northern Virginia, Magazine, March 2010: This family-owned and operated, local bakery chain is as American as, well, mom and apple pie, Northern Virginia Magazine, September 2006.
