Beautiful and Delicious Wedding Cake Inspired by my daughter's design
Amphora Bakery did a fantastic job on our wedding cake! We selected one of their preferred designs and modified it slightly to reflect the wedding cake my 8 year old daughter designed. They did a fantastic job! The red velvet cake with cream cheese icing was decadent and not too sweet. We and our guests truly enjoyed it. I will be returning to Amphora for many special occasions in the future.

Simply Stunning
We had a wonderful experience with Amphora Bakery. Elicia was a pleasure to work with. She is very responsive and helped us achieve our vision within our budget. The result was a cake that was not only stunning but also delicious. We received so many compliments from our guests.

Amphora exceeded my wildest fantasies!
The cake was BEYOND beautiful. And HOW did Amphora manage to find cake plates for us that were a perfect match?!?! Their attention to detail was just phenomenal. I refuse to believe they weren’t secretly communicating with our florist Wander and Whimsy because the color coordination was just out of this world!!! Some of my ideas were out of my budget, but they worked with me to find the perfect cake stand, which achieved the 3 tier cake look I wanted, but with the two tiers that were in budget. They were in constant communication with me and gave their honest advice. Not only was the cake beautiful, but it tasted delicious.
Thank you so much, Amphora, for making our dreams come true!!!

Wonderful bakery to work with
I selected Amphora Bakery to make our wedding cake because I'm a past customer! I ordered a birthday cake from them years ago for my husband and was so impressed how delicious the cake was. Elicia has been so wonderful in working with my husband and I the past few years. We booked this bakery back in 2019 for our 2020 wedding and they've been extremely patient with us each time we've had to reschedule - thanks to the pandemic. It was a rough time with wedding planning, but Elicia was very supportive, responsive, and easy to work with. After many reschedules, our guest count reduced more and more and she allowed us to reduce our cake size and servings. I was shocked when she offered to make changes because I wanted to ask months ago, but was afraid it was too late! My husband and I were so thankful how understanding Elicia and the Amphora Bakery team were. The cake was beautiful, exactly what I had wanted in design, and the salted caramel flavor was delicious! We recommend this bakery to any other couple. If you need catering also, they can handle that for you too. We also booked them for both the wedding cake and catering!

Such a good cake!!
We didn’t even look at another bakery for our wedding cake because we love Amphora, and that was the right call! We got a small cake to cut and a large sheet cake with the vanilla cake with vanilla frosting and forest berry preserves, topped with blue sugar hydrangea petals. It was a hit! We loved it and got so many compliments from our guests! We highly recommend.

Amphora knows how to make a great cake!
Every cake flavor we tried from Amphora was delicious! Elicia was very easy to work with and listened to our ideas. When we had to severely reduce our guest count due to COVID after ordering our cake, they helped us with to-go boxes so we could take cake slices to the local guests who couldn’t come to the reception. Our cake was so beautiful and tasted incredible!

Perfect Service
The Amphora did an amazing job with our cake. Elicia was incredible helpful throughout the process. The cake tasting was fun and easy. When it was time to come up with a design the Amphora wanted to make sure they got the design perfectly and double checked with us. When COVID hit they were incredibly accommodating and made the transition to our new date seamlessly. The few weeks leading up to wedding Elicia was on top of everything to make sure everything was correct. When we saw our cake it was everything we wanted. Everyone raved about the design!! And it tasted GREAT!! We are so happy with everything. Thank you Amphora!!!

Beautiful Cake
Amphora Bakery was so amazing to work with. Elicia and her team did an amazing job taking our ideas about what we wanted the cake to look like and turned it into a beautiful masterpiece. From the start, she was so nice and was able to work around our schedule and even kept in contact throughout COVID-19 to give us updates on what was going on. They delivered our cake to the venue in prestine condition and set it in place on where we wanted it. We had a three tier cake for about 70 guests. We had one layer vanilla cake with Amaretto buttercream, vanilla cake with forest berry preserves, and chocolate with chocolate buttercream. Each layer was delicious, moist, and just melted in your mouth. We even had one guest who tried the cake and wanted to order one for her daughters birthday. Everyone loved it! We felt very confident in their hands and we are so happy that we chose Amphora Bakery to do our wedding cake!

Outstanding
Amphora did an amazing job with all three of our cakes. The grooms cake was in the shape of a Cohiba cigar box and everyone raves about it. I can’t eat sugar or starches like regular flour so they worked me to decorate a small cake I provided to match the main cake using sugar free icing so I was able to enjoy my cake too. The delivery was prompt and everyone asked where ordered the cakes And every plate was cleaned completely! I will definitely order from them again

My family has been getting birthday cakes from Amphora for many years and their wedding cake did not disappoint. The flavor was incredible and the cake was very moist. The buttercream was so perfect it looked like fondant.

September 1st 2019 Wedding
Elicia with Amphora Bakery was an absolute pleasure to work with. She was patient with us as we took time to decide on a cake and dessert table. Elicia is extremely responsive to emails and professional. The cakes and desserts are so good at Amphora Bakery we had a tough time deciding. In fact, they are so good we not only order a wedding cake and 300 cupcakes but they also made the grooms cake and my parents wedding anniversary cake. I encourage you to go with Amphora Bakery for your wedding!

Great Cake!
We were very happy with our 3-tiered wedding cake! We went into the Bakery a few months prior for a tasting and chose the exact cake we wanted. The wedding assistant was very helpful in explaining our options to us and coordinating the order. The cake was both beautiful AND delicious!

I'm attaching a picture of our wedding cake, which was absolutely perfect! A lot of people came up to me and said that most wedding cakes they've had have not been very tasty, but our cake was not only beautiful but absolutely delicious! The design and texture and taste were simply phenomenal. Their customer service is fabulous and responses to my emails and phone calls were quick! Thank you Amphora Bakery for making our cake and our wedding vey special!

Our wedding cake from Amphora was amazing! We were able to do an extensive (and free) sampling of their cakes before selecting. It was so helpful for us in making a decision, although all of the samples were amazing. We decided to do a different type of cake filing on the top and bottom layer of the cake. We worked with Katie and she was absolutely wonderful. We plan on getting cakes there for future birthdays and other occasions. The cake was a huge success at the wedding as well.

Fantastic cakes and service! We ordered the vanilla/mocha cake and it was absolutely delicious and stunningly beautiful! The skill and quality of the cake decorations was truly phenomenal. The tasting was complimentary and blew us away. So many flavors to taste while looking at their amazing talent in their shop at the Herndon location. We would highly recommend Amphora Bakery for any future cake orders!

We have always enjoyed cakes from Amphora, so it was a no-brainer that we book them for our wedding cake. They were great with accomodating us with the tastings and we booked that day before we even met with any other vendor.

I was beyond pleased with both the wedding cake and the grooms cake!! Both Maria Cholakis and Katie Metzbower were so wonderful and easy to work with from the cake tasting until right up wedding day. I was very back and forth when it came to the amount of additional sheet cake I wanted as well as the final design for the grooms cake and they were always so accommodating and flexible with my requests to make sure I was completely happy with the final result...which I was! Our wedding cake was STUNNING and tasted amazing and grooms cake was exactly how I wanted it to be for my husband and he loved it! Thank you, Amphora - we are excited to work with them again in the future!

For our wedding we wanted something simple, meaningful, tasty, and affordable. Amphora bakery hit all those points! We knew we wanted a German Chocolate cake (a family favorite) and a plain vanilla (to accommodate non chocolate lovers). Amphora's website was easy to navigate which showed prices and sizes. I was able to order both cakes via email and there were no hiccups or miscommunication. The cakes were delivered and delicious, just as we expected. Since we just did 1/2 sheet for each cake it was also very affordable for the 92 guests we had. We got a lot of compliments on the cake!

I found Amphora Bakery at a bridal expo. I was walking around tasting all of the bakeries' cake samples, and I wasn't entirely impressed with any of them. I passed Amphora as one of the last booths of the day, and my friend said, "oh look, let's try a piece of that cake, too." I was so tired of cake at that moment that I almost didn't have a sample, but BOY AM I GLAD THAT I DID! Even the sample was the most delicious cake I've ever eaten in my life. I immediately went home and emailed for an official tasting with my fiance. Maria was so professional throughout our tasting, which only further solidified that the cakes from Amphora are THE BEST! After we tasted and decided on a flavor, she took plenty of time to review my vision for the wedding and helped us customize one of their former designs into a cake that was perfect for our theme, size of our guest list, and budget. She was a pleasure to work worth during all of the planning, and the cake on our wedding day was just as delicious as the both tastings! I must have sampled cake from 15 bakeries at that expo, and I knew that Amphora had to be our baker the second I tasted their cake. I highly recommend their services!

Amphora Bakery was so nice! Wonderful experience! We met with Janet whom said that she has been in the wedding industry for 25+ years which reassured my fiance and I that she knew what she was doing. She offered us water, tea and even soda. So nice of her. We had a large and spacious table to look at all the albums and they have cakes surrounding you which helped out because you could visualize how big your cake would be. Janet brought out more than 12 flavors for us to try. She was very knowledgeable of every flavor and manually placed the filling in the middle of two cake pieces so we would taste it. She did this with every piece. It was so nice of her to take the time to share with all of us (my fiance's parents and my mom) all the flavors we wanted to try. I was confident that my cake would turn out perfect. The exact cake that I wanted was on display too! I couldn't believe it! It looked gorgeous! I would definitely recommend Janet and her team at Amphora Bakery! And I will be getting my cake from them. She reassured me that I could make any changes I wanted and that she is always there to help with anything. 5 Stars does not give her enough credit!
Amphora Bakery's reply:
Dear Kerly,
On behalf of our team here at Amphora Bakery we would like to send you a huge thank you for your review of our wedding cake services. We will be sure to share your feedback with Janet as we know she will be more than thrilled to hear you loved everything about our customer service and attention to detail. We wish you and your husband a happy and prosperous marriage. Thank you again and best wishes,
