    10/10 experience with Fox Den!

    Melissa made the most DELICIOUS cake and mini cupcakes for our wedding this past May! Not only were they amazing, but they all had to be gluten free and no one could even tell the difference! Our guests raved about them and we even had leftovers for our family to enjoy the rest of our wedding weekend. Melissa is so sweet and even made a to-go tasting box for us since we’re from out of town and didn’t have time for a full tasting meeting. We could not recommend her enough!!

    These pictures are gorgeous! Thank you so much for sharing them, and for these kind words! It was truly an honor to work with you and to be a sweet part of your day.

    Gluten Free Options!!

    Fox Den was AMAZING. I’ve been raving about our cake decorator since our wedding. We had a gluten free vanilla cake and it wasn’t dry at all, it was perfect and tasty! The buttercream wasn’t too sweet, either, which I love. I’ve never had better vanilla buttercream (and I’m a cake decorator myself). We also got macarons. They were soft and delicious and she was able to match the colors to our theme and had the prettiest gold shimmer on them.

    Fox Den Baking Co.'s reply:

    To have a fellow cake artist compliment our work with such high praise is literally bringing tears to our eyes! Your wedding vision was picture perfect, and it was an honor to help you bring it to life!

    Best cake ever

    Let’s just say I had cake pops, sugar cookies, and a 2 tier cake and NOTHING was left behind. She did everything just like the photos I sent to her. Amazing taste

    Fox Den Baking Co.'s reply:

    Oh wow Gina-Marie! We're so thrilled you + your guests enjoyed everything. Thank you for allowing us to be a sweet part of your celebration!

    The most delicious dessert bar!!

    We hired Fox Den with a recommendation from a friend and couldn’t be happier with the results! We did a tasting beforehand and put together a game plan of many, many different flavors of cupcakes, macarons, cookies and brownies. The desserts were gorgeous and the flavors were out of this world!! There was nothing left to take home because the guests loved the desserts so much! I would highly recommend fox den baking!!!

    Fox Den Baking Co.'s reply:

    Amanda your day was absolutely beautiful, and we are so thankful for friends who recommend us. Thank you so much for the kind words, you were absolutely wonderful to work with!

    Excellent service and amazing taste!

    From the first moment we contacted Fox Den, we knew we wanted Melissa to make our cake. She is extremely nice, friendly, and helpful. You can tell through her work just how much experience and knowledge she has with baking. Our cake and cupcakes were the best cakes we have ever tasted! She also made some macaroons for our wedding favors and we got so many compliments on them! We told her our vision and sent her photos of our inspiration and she hit the nail in the head!

    Fox Den Baking Co.'s reply:

    Thank you so much for the kind words! Your wedding vision will forever be in our top-five favorites, and we're so appreciative you shared pictures with us. We were honored to work with you!

    The Cake was Amazing!

    I hope more people get their cakes from here because it is amazing! She has so many flavors and combos and is super flexible when it comes to allergies! The cakes we ordered were beautiful and fit our theme perfectly!

    Fox Den Baking Co.'s reply:

    Thank you so much for the kind words, Terésa! We loved working with you, and would love to see pictures of y'all slicing the cake when you receive them!

    Delicious and beautiful!

    WOW! That is what I have to say. The wedding cake is not something that you typically hear people rave over, and we got so many compliments and requests for leftovers if we had any! First, the cake and cupcakes were all gorgeous. Next, the flowers and decor that were placed on the day of the wedding looked amazing! We are not huge cake people, but I could not stop myself from going back to get more leftovers multiple times.

    Fox Den Baking Co.'s reply:

    Thank you so much Victoria! Makes our hearts skip a beat to hear you were so happy with how your cake vision came together for your big day! It was truly an honor, and I hope we've converted you to be cake people :)

    Best cake ever

    Melissa is amazing! We did a cake tasting with her first, and she provided so many options for us, and they were all delicious. We finally chose to do three tiers, each a different flavor. Everyone raved about the cake. The cake was one of my favorite things about our wedding, LOL! We also ordered personalized cookies too. Anytime we're back in TN, I am going back to Melissa because her flavors/combinations are outstanding.

    Fox Den Baking Co.'s reply:

    I am so thrilled you + your guests enjoyed everything, Amy! Thank you so much for these kind words, and for sharing pictures of the cake-cutting! That's such a special moment I don't always receive pictures from, it's so greatly appreciated.

    If you’re looking for a Knoxville bakery, Fox Den is it!!

    On top of having such delicious cakes, Melissa was an absolute gem! She was so kind when we visited her shop for our cake tasting. My husband and I traveled throughout Italy for a summer and we expressed interest in doing a tiramisu inspired cake. She was so excited to develop a personal recipe to represent a sweet part of our relationship! The cake was delicious and the marscapone icing she made was TO DIE FOR! We left the tasting thinking about that icing for weeks!
    Delivery on our wedding day went smoothly and the cake display was beautiful. We got so many compliments on both the beauty and taste of the cakes. We actually almost didn’t get to have a slice of cake, other than from our bite of cake cutting, because people kept going back for seconds and thirds!! Pricing was extremely reasonable and Melissa was super flexible in working to create our dream cake display. If you need a baker in the Knoxville area, I certainly recommend Fox Den!

    Fox Den Baking Co.'s reply:

    We *love* recreating special moments for our couples, and we are thrilled you enjoyed the tiramisu-inspired cake! Thank you so much for these kind words, Abby. You were a dream to work with, and we wish you the happiest of marriages!

    Melissa with Fox Den Baking Co. is an actual angel! She would go above and beyond to make your wedding cake dreams come true! She was responsive, kind, and easy to work with (my planner absolutely loved her). And don't get me started on how delicious the cake was. You will not be disappointed if you use her for any occasion!

    Saved the day!

    I contacted Melissa a few weeks before my wedding as my cake plans had fallen through. She quickly answered all of my questions and was able to bring my small cake idea to life. I was able to add on cupcakes as well which worked out perfectly because my husband wanted a chocolate cake and I wanted red velvet. We were able to both get what we wanted! After debating for a bit I reached back out to her to add on a dozen decorated cookies. I wanted something I could ship to my grandparents as they weren’t able to travel for the wedding and I wanted to share something with them. The cookies were my favorite part! I shipped 6 to my grandparents and kept the other 6 for myself. They were so cute and equally delicious!! Overall, I had such a great experience ordering from Melissa and I’m so grateful she was able to help me out on a short notice!

    Fox Den Baking Co.'s reply:

    Planning a wedding has so many moving parts, we're so thankful we were able to alleviate the stress of finding a baker to help make your wedding celebration sweeter. You guys did it right--cupcakes are always a good idea :) Thank you so much for trusting us with your custom cookie designs, and we're so happy you + your grandparents enjoyed them!

    Look no further than Fox Den Baking Co!

    Fox Den Baking Co was great to work with! We chose the vanilla bean cake with almond buttercream and so many guests told us it was the best wedding cake they've ever had! She went above and beyond to help us on our day, and we're so glad we picked Fox Den to provide our cake. Bonus was that we were planning from out of town so we were also able to get a cake tasting shipped, yumm!

    Fox Den Baking Co.'s reply:

    We're so glad you + your guests loved the cake, Andrea! It was a pleasure to bake for you + Alex, and to be a sweet part of your big day!

    Highly Recommend!! Delicious & Beautiful Cakes!

    Melissa was amazing EVERY STEP OF THE WAY. We lucked out and found her at an Open House event at our venue and I just really liked her right away. The macarons MAY have had something to do with that, but she was really easy to talk to right away and my now-husband and I just got a good feeling about her. We booked a tasting with her and not only was everything DELICIOUS, it was seriously the most fun day. We were joined by a couple friends, my MIL, & SIL and we laughed and laughed. Melissa asked many questions to make sure she understood the vision we had for our cake. She was gracious enough to meet us in Knoxville to pick up our cake topper, and she was flexible when I told her kinda last minute that we decided we wanted to use wraps on our cupcakes. Really just THE BEST and so easy to work with. Also, her vanilla cupcake w salted caramel buttercream is the best cake I've ever put in my mouth (I've eaten and baked many many cakes and usually don't have strong feelings for vanilla cake). On our wedding day, she was in and out of the venue before I even arrived and everything was beautiful. Our cake was exactly what we wanted and our guests raved about the cupcakes (choc w espresso buttercream, vanilla w salted caramel, and strawberry w cream cheese). Cannot say enough nice things about this sweet woman and her delicious creations. Hire her!! You won't regret it.
