A turtle pie is a dessert pie, originating in the United States. The turtle pie got its name due to the caramel, chocolate and pecans that are used to top the pies, which are said to have a similarity in flavor to that of DeMet's Turtles
History
The pie is said to have been created by the now-defunct fine dining chain The Velvet Turtle as a specialty pie. Pre-made, frozen turtle pies are sold by brands such as Marie Calendar's and Edwards.
