Delicious cake!
I had my wedding cake made here and it was perfect! The flavors were really nice and cake was delicious! Many guest wanted seconds and to take some home. They did the design I wanted and it was three tiers of real cake for a very good price! -

My husband and I ordered a spice cake for 100 people for our October wedding, and WOW - it could not have been more delicious. We met with Susie for our tasting, who is incredibly knowledgeable and an absolutely lovely person, and she helped us feel confident in the both the size we ordered and flavor combination we chose (vanilla buttercream, raspberry jam, spice cake - so. good.). Our guests raved about it! We're super excited for our first anniversary just to have some more of this cake!! -

If you've been to Heidelberg Bakery, you know their food is delicious, so when it came to selecting the bakery for our wedding cake, there was never any question. We chose two different flavors, both of which were delicious, and the cake was stunning. If you want a special cake that even non-cake eaters will love, this is the place. -

Beautiful and delicious!
Heidelberg is a longtime family favorite, and they didn't disappoint with our wedding cake! Ann-Marie and her staff helped us settle on a scrumptious flavor combination and gorgeous design, and worked with us on short-notice to provide some additional desserts like extra cake, pies and pastries. They were able to deliver everything in great shape all the way down in Lorton.
We'll be going back for an anniversary cake! -

Heidelberg was my husband's first choice for our wedding cake. They're a bakery we go to all the time and after we did our cake tasting, we cancelled all our other appointments because we both loved our experience working with them and the taste so much! Their cake flavors were delicious without having to add on a bunch of stuff to make them taste good. They had a ton of options for design and worked with us to get the design just right. On our wedding day, the cake disappeared so quickly and people are still asking us where we got it from!Heidelberg Pastry Shoppe's reply:
Thrilled that you loved your cake so much! We heard that even your cake to be saved was eaten. Not to worry, we can make a small 6" for you to eat any time! -

Our wedding cake was AMAZING
Our Heidelberg wedding cake was so beautiful and delicious - we had a three-tier vanilla cake with lemon curd and buttercream frosting, and then another sheet cake to serve additional guests. We had so many guests comment that it was the best wedding cake they've ever had, and we agree! The tasting and ordering process was very easy too. We highly recommend Heidelberg! -

We only had one option when it came to our wedding cake - Heidelberg Pastry Shoppe! Their cakes are SO delicous that we didn't even bother with tastings at other bakeries! They were so helpful with planning the design. We wanted something simple and pretty, so we opted for a little bit of texture on the frosting and added some flower clusters we got from our florist and the end result was perfect! We had two flavors: vanilla pound cake with raspberry filling and a chocolate pound cake with strawberries and bavarian cream filling and BOTH were amazing! We ended up ordering too much and had plenty of leftovers, which is never a bad thing :) I highly recommend Heidelberg Pastry Shoppe for any Northern Virginia wedding! -

We loved our cake from Heidelberg. We ordered a 3 tier cake and then a sheet cake to feed all the guests. We had vanilla pound cake with buttercream. We dropped off silk flowers which the baker placed onto the cake for us. We also had them deliver our cakes to our venue (worth the cost). Everyone said the cake was delicious and beautiful. Highly recommend. -

My husband and I wanted pie on our wedding day. We provided guests with cake as well as the delicious cherry pies from Heidelberg. I ordered 13 of them online a few days in advance, and we picked them up the night before our wedding. Super easy process and the pies were amazing! They provided us with to-go boxes upon request, but we didn’t have any use for them because by the end of the night all of the pie had been eaten. We will definitely order from Heidelberg again for our pie needs in the future! -

Couldn't ask for more!
Excellent customer service throughout the process, and guests raved about how good our cake was! Everything looked great and tasted even better. I decided to also add a groom's cake a week before the wedding, and they happily and beautifully executed my idea for a funfetti Gator cake to honor my groom's Alma mater. Hands down the best value you are going to find for quality specialty cakes in the Washington DC area. -

Victoria Sent on 07/29/2019So delicious!
At first I didn’t want the traditional cake because I am not a huge cake person, however my husband was all about a huge wedding cake, and I’m glad he talked me into it. This cake was absolutely gorgeous and the most delicious cake I have ever had. We did a vanilla cake with white chocolate mousse filling. I actually cried when we got back from our honeymoon and there was none leftover for me to eat. It was THAT GOOD. Well worth every penny. -

Ashlea Sent on 12/10/2018Attentive. Courteous. Amazing Cake!
Heidelberg Pastry Shoppe is THE PLACE to get your wedding cake, groom’s cake, and any other treats you may consider having for your wedding! My husband and I went to Heidelberg Pastry Shoppe for a tasting after it had been recommended by several friends and colleagues, and we were treated with such respect and kindness! We called ahead to pick out the flavors that most interested us. They set up our own table (complete with a “wedding tasting” sign), a massive binder of almost all their cake designs they have done in the past, and three huge multi-layer slices of cake of our choices. The woman taking care of us was attentive but allowed us to take our time and discuss our opinions; she answered all our questions and was extremely patient! A few weeks leading up to the wedding, the bakery was flexible in changing the sizes and décor of the cake. The day of, the cake was delivered with no issue and everyone RAVED about it! We decided on almond cake with raspberry jam with spice cake with apricot jam; both of those layers were a hit, and even months after the wedding, people still talk about how great that cake was! My husband and I now get all special event cakes there! An amazing bakery that was highly recommended by several people that makes fantastic cakes with exceptional service and great pricing….this is a must for a great wedding! -

Katherine Sent on 07/31/2018One word: DELICIOUS! Our cake was absolutely fabulous! We wanted simple and elegant, but above all tasty! We had two tiers of spice cake and one of red velvet all with buttercream frosting and it fit our winter wedding perfectly! We're so happy they're close to where we live so we can go back for other cakes (p.s. their Saturday German BBQ cart is also amazing). -

Elizabeth Sent on 11/06/2017We were thrilled with our cake from Heidelberg. We wanted a three tier to display/cut, and then sheet cakes in the back to cut/serve for us to serve 150 guests. We were able to do the whole thing under our budget (under $500) and received so many compliments. My brother-in-law, a dessert connoisseur, wants to make a special trip to Heidelberg next time he is in the DC area!
We wanted a simple buttercream cake and our florist (Greenworks) added fresh flowers to it that day. I sent photos and talked with the team about the design, and they executed it perfectly. We did pound cake for the tiered cake and then used their more birthday-like cake consistency for the sheet cakes that were not displayed but just served. We were able to do a variety of flavors because of the different layers and the different sheet cakes. It was delicious, beautiful, and under budget. Save yourself time and book with Heidelberg! They were so wonderful and not pushy to deal with!
