9 Time Winner of WeddingWire Couples' Choice Awards!

When you choose Flour Child Bakery for your wedding cake, you'll be getting our expert attention to detail that comes along with our 15+ years' experience! Our bakery is special because we make all of our sweet treats from scratch on-site.

We're so proud of what we do, we built a window into our kitchen so you can watch the magic happen. Baking is our passion, and we believe in quality over quantity. Everything is made by hand in small batches by our experienced bakers. We do not use any cake mixes. We make our signature Swiss meringue buttercream frosting with all butter - never any shortening. We use real butter, pure extracts, Belgian chocolate, fresh fruit, and many other quality ingredients in our everyday baking.

We also offer gluten-free options, including cakes, cupcakes, & more!

We are thrilled to be preferred wedding cake bakers for Lesner Inn, Gala 417, The Maine of Williamsburg, Royal Courtyard at West Neck, and Grand Affairs Catering.

We are mother-daughter owned & operated since opening our storefront in 2010!

Yes, yes, yes! 🧁🍴😭☕

"YES, YES, YES!!!" I need everyone to channel their "When Harry Met Sally" restaurant scene energy, read this, then confidently exclaim, "I'LL HAVE WHAT SHE'S HAVING!" If you're searching for a wedding cake, cupcakes, or simply to get your afternoon dessert fix, STOP!!! You needn't look any further!!! Flour Child Bakery is THE ANSWER!!!

Two weeks ago, I married my best friend. I was thrilled to finally make it down the aisle, but what I truly couldn't wait for was to see (and eat!) the incredible cake and cupcakes from Flour Child that awaited us inside the venue...

I started planning our wedding in February, so we didn't have much time to ruminate over the many options! I knew I wanted something coffee-flavored, and wanted to see lots of pretty cake/cupcake combo designs. Flour Child clearly listed an espresso Swiss meringue buttercream frosting option on their website and had a variety of beautiful, unique, and delicious-looking photos to browse! It was so easy to reach out and immediately connect with Cassie. From start to finish, her expertise, guidance, patience, creativity, warmth, and passion guided me through the process of choosing the perfect wedding cake and cupcakes!!!

The team was personable and incredible in every way. Our cake tasting was an absolute blast—we did 2 cake tasting boxes and had so much fun mixing and matching different frostings and cake flavors! Their specialty frosting, Swiss meringue buttercream, is the best thing I've ever eaten. It's thick, fluffy, holds shape, is stable at room temperature, and carefully crafted with so many freaking flavors!!!! It's an absolute HIT and unlike the typical syrupy, overly sweet, or sticky frosting many places use. It's PERFECTION. I ate it with a spoon out of my tasting box.

Now, let me tell you what we chose to do and how freaking delicious everything was, so you can say, "I'LL HAVE WHAT SHE'S HAVING!"

We opted for a 6" layered cutting cake for us, with a wide variety of cupcakes for guests, placed on a large wooden cupcake stand.

Our layered cutting cake had espresso-flavored frosting with devil's food chocolate cake, filled with dark chocolate ganache... The decorations were breathtaking—she created the most beautiful seashells and coral for our beach-themed wedding, and it complemented our cake topper so perfectly!!! The flavor was to die for. Absolutely perfect, fluffy, rich, and delectable....

We then did 10 dozen cupcakes consisting of 9 flavors!!!!! We had a small wedding, and the goal was making sure people got to try any flavor they wanted, and send some home with folks!

The final flavors:

1) our wedding cake flavor (espresso frosting, devil's food chocolate cake, dark chocolate ganache filling) x 2 dozen

2) strawberry cupcakes filled with white chocolate ganache, topped with strawberry frosting and white chocolate ganache drizzle

3) carrot cake cupcakes with cream cheese frosting and cream cheese frosting as filling

4) German chocolate cupcakes with classic German chocolate coconut/pecan frosting with chocolate buttercream filling

5) lemon cupcakes with raspberry preserves filling and lemon buttercream frosting with a raspberry drizzle

6) pineapple cupcakes with passion fruit preserves filling and passion fruit buttercream frosting with a dollop of passion fruit filling on top

7) coconut cupcakes filled with lemon curd and topped with classic vanilla Swiss meringue buttercream frosting tinted blue with edible seashells

8) almond cupcakes with raspberry preserves filling and almond frosting with raspberry drizzle

9) Classic yellow cake cupcakes with chocolate Swiss meringue buttercream frosting

Every single one was phenomenal, and I had so much fun bossing people around, making sure they all tried everything! As evidenced in the photos 😂😂😂

Amid the stress of wedding planning, when I felt overwhelmed, I'd literally drive over to Flour Child and get some treats (jumbo cupcakes, cake pops, coconut custard, cookies, etc.)! Their store is such a lovely, yummy safe space and helped remind me what a wedding is truly all about—togetherness, community, love, connection, and cake!

I will be a lifelong customer and fan of this incredible family-owned, woman-owned bakery!!!! Thank you so much for helping our dreams come true!!! We'll be seeing you again soon!

Love,
Rebecca & Ronnie

The Best Wedding Cake Ever!

Flour Child Bakery was the perfect choice for our wedding cake. From the start of the process, they were so easy to work with. Being able to sample flavors at home and then tell them exactly what we wanted our cake to be, they were great every step of the way. The cake was delivered exactly when they said and it was perfect. Our guests RAVED about how delicious the cake was. We can't recommend Flour Child enough!

After wedding family 🎉 celebration

First time using this bakery and will use again in the future! The cake was the “shining star” on the table.Guest loved the two tier filled cake raspberry on top chocolate ganache on the bottom. Everyone commented how the cake was so delicious light,moist and not too sweet. Guests surprised it was gluten-free which we ordered for two guests that were attending, so everyone could enjoy! Thanks for making this celebration a sweet one!🥰

Norfolk Rooftop Wedding

Wow! Flour Child Bakery was recommended to me by several people on social media. They created a custom, 6" wedding cake as well as several dozen cupcakes for our wedding. The bakers and staff that helped us with the process were absolutely fantastic; from setting up a take-home cake testing, discussing design, and modifying pie order to accommodate some of our guests food restrictions. Everything looked amazing, exactly how we envisioned the cake and cupcakes to look... and tastes delicious as well (we were lucky to taste many of the flavors we ordered for our guests cupcakes lol). 10/10 recommend!

Our two tier Wedding Cake for 30 people:

Flour Child Bakery did an absolutely amazing job with the two tier cake we ordered for our wedding on 5/2/26! Cassie from Flour Child arrived early for our event with a gorgeous two tier white wedding cake decorated with our cake topper & flowers we had previously dropped off at their location. It was stunning! She even provided a box for us to save the top tier in. The cake was beautifully executed & meticulously presented! We were so impressed by it!!
The flavor combination of almond cake with vanilla buttercream was delightful together & we were happy we’d ordered the tasting box well in advance of our event so we could try out all the combinations of cake, frosting & filling for ourselves to make an informed decision for our big day. In addition we found everyone at Flour Child both professional, helpful & great at communicating. Our guests found the cake so delicious that most of them took home an extra piece from our wedding! Flour Child really hit it out of the park for us on this one!!! We will definitely be using their services again in the future. Thank you so much for making our big day so special!!! 💕

Delicious Everything!

Working with Flour Child Bakery was such a wonderful experience! Cassie and Cathy were very easy to communicate with and responded very quickly to any questions we had. Cake testing was really fun once my husband and I figured out we take everything home and test out all flavors from the comfort of our own couch - this is such a great idea! We knew we wanted red velvet for our 2 tier cake, but had the most fun paring flavors for our guests cupcakes. Our cake came out beautiful and the cupcakes were a hit with our guests. We loved our experience so much with Flour Child Bakery that my husband and I make occasional trips back to the bakery to treat ourselves with cake pops, scones or a slice of pie. I highly recommend!!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
