Sweet Granny Bea’s boasts homemade pies, desserts in Humble Known for its authentic Southern pies, Sweet Granny Bea’s was inspired by owner Bea Emanuel -Sims’ grandmother’s recipes. “When my grandmother passed away in 2007, I started baking sweets to feel her spirit and to feel a connection to her,” Sims said. How it happened Sims said her grandmother’s passing inspired her to continue to keep her legacy alive through her sweet potato pie recipe. Although she originally began baking pies for friends and family, her baked goods quickly gained a following, which led her to start a home-based baking business in 2017. Six years later, she opened her rst brick-and-mortar store- front in Humble on Jan. 25. On the menu According to Sims, Sweet Granny Bea’s is known for its unique pies and desserts, including sweet potato pie, pecan pie, lemon squares, peach cobbler and banana pudding. Although Sweet Granny Bea’s does not o er its full menu in store, customers can place orders 48 hours in advance and request any dessert on the menu. The business also o ers a collection of home and gift items, including the Sweet Granny Bea’s cookbook, aprons and gift sets. “The main thing is when we bake, I make the environment really fun because I really do believe that when you have love in your heart and you bake with love, it kind of transfers to the food and makes the food taste better,” Sims said.
Sweet Granny Bea’s desserts range from sweet potato pie and lemon squares to peach cobbler and banana pudding.
