Who doesn’t love a delicious

pie? If you’re in Barbados, get

your hands on one of the fi nest

from local favourite, Tiki Pies.

Maegan Layne started

the business in 2009, when

friends started ordering her

homemade New Zealand-style

pies so they could freeze them

for quick dinners. Her fi rst

retail outlet was at Brighton

Farmers’ Market (where she

still has a stall), followed by a

small shop in Bayside Plaza. As

the business became more and

more successful, Maegan’s New

Zealander husband Mike gave

up his job to join her.

“Work begins at 5am every

day,” said Barbados-born

Maegan. “All our pies are baked

fresh. Our most popular are egg,

bacon and cheese; sweet curry

chicken; and steak, mushroom

and cheese. We do two or three
