True Blue Bakery offers a taste of Australia in Philly

ROYERSFORD, Pa. -- Roy Cooper and his fiance, Fiona McPhee, opened True Blue Bakery in the summer of 2020 as a way to reconnect with their Australian roots.

They serve traditional five-inch hand pies made in pie plates straight from the "Down Under".

The classic is ground beef and onion-filled pie that visitors would find as they travel to Australia.

There is also lamb-filled pie, a southern-style gravy-filled breakfast pie and vegetarian pies such as spinach and feta.

Roy comes from a family of bakers and butchers. Fiona is charged with coming up with new recipes.

The couple hopes the shop can grow into an Australian-style cafe.
