Apple pie is so 24 years ago.

Inspired by Jason’s favorite flavors, the limited-edition pie was aptly named Pie Lovers Passion Fruit, and dropped right before the Fourth of July.

Edwards went there. And the media and fans ate it up.

No big TV ad buys or digital budgets. Videos posted to Jason's and Edwards' social channels quickly spread to screens across America.

Pass the pie.

More than two million reactions, comments and shares across social netted a 99.9% positive sentiment for the Edwards Brand and campaign content—nearly unheard of in today’s social media environment.
