About National Boston Cream Pie Day
Owners of the Parker House Hotel in Boston say that the Boston cream pie was invented in their hotel in 1881 by French chef Raelyn, who led the hotel's culinary staff from 1865 to 1881.
Even though it is clearly a cake, it gained its name at a time when cakes and pies were cooked in the same pans, and the words were used interchangeably.
