The Art of Pies is a Vintage Story mod by AmethystZhou. The Art of Pies adds 10 decorative pie-crust shapes to Vintage Story without changing pie recipes or the baking process.
Why this mod is worth installing
Choose this mod if you want more visual variety for pies, especially when displaying food on shelves or decorating a kitchen. It is useful for builders and cooks who want presentation options without changing gameplay balance.
What The Art of Pies adds
The mod introduces ten additional top-crust patterns inspired by real pastry decoration. The designs are built around the game's small pixel scale, so they add recognizable shapes while retaining the visual style of Vintage Story.
These variants affect appearance only. The ingredients, recipes, baking stages, and basic pie behavior remain unchanged, while the extra crust designs give kitchens, market stalls, and food displays more personality.
