Uncommon Cakes 

5.0

  • Starts at $60
  • Serves Amherst, VA

Uncommon Cakes specializes in unique and custom flavors (think Crème Brûlée, Cardamom Strawberry, Brown Butter Bourbon Peach, and Chocolate Earl Gray Hazelnut) for cakes, cupcakes, and other treats for your wedding or other celebrations in central Virginia (Charlottesville, Nelson, Amherst, Lynchburg, Crozet, and surrounding areas).

Uncommon Cakes was referred by our wedding venue for desserts for our wedding. We hired Uncommon Cakes after a quick phone call understanding she could pretty much make anything with any flavor. Uncommon Cakes was able to accommodate tastings for us when we came into town to do wedding things. They were quick to respond and easy to work with. We ended up selecting multiple flavors of cupcakes for dessert along with a small cake for cutting. We highly recommend Uncommon Cakes for any dessert!

Sweet E's Pastries 

5.0

  • Starts at $3
  • Serves Amherst, VA

Sweet E's Pastries is a small, family-owned husband and wife team who love creating desserts that are both visually captivating and delicious. E is short for Erin who has loved to bake since her grandma first tied her apron strings when she was little! Her husband Allen is often busy behind the scenes, building display pieces, keeping track of inventory, taste testing (quality control!), and delivering the goods.

Sweet E’s Pastries was the perfect bakery for us!! From the moment we sat down at the taste testing, Erin got the vision for the wedding and surpassed all of our expectations. The flavors she had were so incredibly delicious and she even offer to create new flavor combos to match our theme:) I completely trusted Sweet E’s setup and display for the big day and we had so many compliments from our guests about how beautiful it all looked but that it tasted even better! Thank you Erin and we will definitely be using Sweet E’s again!!

Sweet Carolina Cakes Studio

  • Starts at $400
  • Serves Amherst, VA

I am Carolina Schierholz, the owner and Chef of Sweet Carolina Cakes Studio. I create trendy wedding cakes for couples in Fredericksburg, Northern Virginia, and Maryland. I have 16 years of professional expertise and a background in art and design. All my cakes are custom designed, so you can experience the legitimate luxury of having precisely what you want.

We cannot recommend Sweet Carolina Cakes Studio and baker Carolina enough! From our first meeting to discuss cake options, we knew we were in good hands. Carolina's communication was effective, timely, and clear every step of the way. Her keen eye for detail resulted in a gorgeous wedding cake that perfectly captured the visuals we shared. The cake itself was a work of art - three beautifully decorated layers of strawberry lemonade cake that was a true hit with our guests. Everyone is still raving about how delicious it was! Beyond the exceptional cake, Carolina's services were extremely reasonably priced. We truly felt we received perfection and incredible attention to detail at a very cost effective price. If you have a chance to book Carolina at Sweet Carolina Cakes Studio for your wedding or special event, we highly recommend you do so. You will not be disappointed!

Sweet Buckets

  • Starts at $300
  • Serves Amherst, VA for additional fees

We began as a concession company providing cotton candy at sporting events. In the fall of 2021, we extended our brand by starting our own manufacturing plant. Sweet Buckets was born as an option for customers and businesses to purchase Cotton Candy and Gourmet popcorns direct from our company.

Awarded Best of Zola
We had our wedding reception at a brewery and wanted some easy to eat sweet and salty snacks. These popcorn flavors were delicious, they sent us flavors to try before we decided. We chose 4 flavors and they shipped them right to our house. The popcorn buckets had our cute custom labels which they designed for us and looked PERFECT! We had tons of compliments on the popcorn. We ordered plenty and people were grabbing them to take home at the end of the night. A perfect snack after a few beers. Theu were very fast with the samples and the order too!
