    New name - "Evie's Bakery"

    First a quick note on the owner before I rave about their wedding cakes -- Evie, the amazing cake chef, has split from Wildflour and now has her own shop in Roanoke called "Evie's Bakery and Bistro" - Please check this location out!

    If you want world-class cake for your wedding, look no further than Evie. We got a 3-tier cake with Marie Antoinette (raspberry) and Lemon Chiffon. We ordered a lot of extra cake (COVID wedding, not many came...) and we RAN OUT. As the Bride, I only got a quick bite during the cake cutting and no more. Many guests had a slice of each, many saying that they usually don't even like wedding cake, but that they cannot determine which of ours is the best because it was so delicious.

    I also want to comment that our wedding cake looked like a dream! It came out exactly as I had described to Evie and I could not be happier with the photos. It may look like a stock cake I found on google, but nope, that is the real cake we had in our September wedding at Big Spring Farm in Lexington! We had our florist leave her some flowers to put into the cake and Evie may have outdone our florist!

    Evie was easy to work with. She is so professional but also so nice. I would highly recommend her to everyone having any event anywhere in the area.

    September 2019 Wedding at Mountain Lake Lodge

    We had a small two tiered cake and two sheet cakes in a beautiful ombre rosette decoration with buttercream icing. Our lemon cake with lemon curd icing was absolutely delicious!! I am tempted to break into that top tier before our anniversary! Thanks so much to Evie and her team,

    The best cake we have ever eaten! We did 2 small tiers and 2 sheet cakes and they were all excellent. If you are in town go and eat in her restaurant, the food is fantastic!

    MOST DELICIOUS WEDDING CAKE EVER TASTED! We received uncountable remarks on how wonderful our cake tasted. It was beautifully decorated and ridiculously delicious. We loved getting our cake from Evie at Wildflour Bakery.

    This is old hat for Evie. The cake met my very high expectations based on her reputation -- beautiful, delicious, exactly what I ordered. We did a white and chocolate cake (different layers) with plain buttercream frosting, to please the most people. The tasting process was, of course, super enjoyable. You go to the bakery and get a little sample of each cake and frosting, with an opportunity to mix and match.

    Evie was wonderful! The cake tasting is so much fun and you get to take what you can't eat with you! All of the flavors are so delicious, we had a very hard time choosing. She is able to create almost any design (we went to 3 other bakeries that told us they wouldn't be able to do what we wanted, she said, "no problem"). I'm so glad we found Wildflour, all of the guests raved about how tasty the cake was. We will definitely use Wildflour for any future events/celebrations!

    We got our wedding cake from Wildflour Bakery. We did the cake tasting ahead of time, and we were pleased with all of the delicious flavors of cake and frosting! It was so hard to choose, so we did a different flavor on each tier. There were tons of compliments on our cake at the wedding, both on the look and the taste. (It was designed to look like a birch tree). We would highly recommend Wildflour bakery to anyone who wants a unique and delicious wedding cake (and they offer delivery too)!

    Evie was great! I explained my wacky idea for a wedding cake, and she made it come alive! I had her submit a color sketch of my idea to verify we were on the same page, and she complied. I asked her to practice making icing Hokiebird feet tracks, and she did! My cake was amazing and I was thrilled! Even if you've found someone else, go to her cake tastings, because she brings out a tray with every flavor of cake she makes, and every flavor of icing/filling and you get to mix and match at the tasting! You get to choose two fillings and 1 cake flavor per tier. I had three tiers and it was enough for 150 people. She owns her own restaurant, so you don't have to worry about home bakers who may have dogs running around, and/or construction work going on in their house (dusty dog hair cake, eww!).

    Our experience with Evie was fabulous from start to finish. The cake tasting was informative (and delicious) and throughout the process she was very easy to get a hold of. At the wedding the cake was beautiful and tasted great! I have gotten many compliments on the cake.

    Wildflour made us a beautiful and tasty cake for our wedding. It looked exactly how I wanted it to (even better actually) and was the best tasting cake I've ever had. They delivered it to the venue the morning of and I didn't even have to worry about it getting there because I knew they were on top of things.

    We absolutely loved our cakes. The wedding cake was not only completely gorgeous but was delicious. Our guests confirmed this. The groom's cake was decorated perfectly and also tasted amazing. The only thing we wished was different was for the country club to have cut larger slices of cake for the guests. They pretty much cut slivers instead of pieces so we have a freezer-full of cake left over. That's not too much of a problem though because we will eat it ourselves. The only thing I would recommend is suggesting how large to cut the pieces so the bride can tell her cake cutting service how to do it. The cakes were absolutely perfect looking and tasting though!! They were all we had hoped for!!

    If you are getting married in the Roanoke area I cannot imagine using anyone other than Evie at Wildflour bakery. We presented her with several pictures of what we wanted (multi-tiered, multi-shaped, extremely tall with detailed scroll work) and she completely delivered. Not only was it gorgeous but everyone said it was the best wedding cake they had ever had.

    We tasted cakes from 3 or 4 other vendors in Roanoke and nothing even came close to Evie's cakes. Her selection is awesome and the buttercream is to die for. I cannot say enough wonderful things about Evie and her wedding cake skills! She was definitely one of our top vendors for the whole event.

    Evie at Wildflour was absolutely lovely! She listened to me and, after adding some much needed input and advice, presented the cake I wanted! It was layered with different flavors and fillings (4 teirs) and was the most beautiful cake I had ever seen! My guest thought so as well. The price was pretty much right on what we discussed. She will NOT disappoint!

    Wildflour and Evie provided a beautiful and DELICIOUS cake! My husband and I wanted a simple cake that imitated our favorite desserts: Wildflour's mint and raspberry brownies. Evie was flexible and creative, helping us mimic our favorites in a cake form. The cake was a big hit among our guest and received many compliments on how every part (cake and icing) was delicious and how they wanted seconds.

    Evie of Wildflour baked a wonderful two tier cake for our August wedding. It had an almond pound cake with ganauch and bavarian cream filling topped with a dense chocolate cake with chocolate chips and pecans with raspberry and chocolate mousse filling with wonderful ivory butter cream icing and hint of pink rose floral swirl. The cake was memorable and we also will get a cake just like our top tier for our first anniversary. coool! highly recommend Evie, top drawer baker. Thanks Evie!

    Evie baked a delicious & moist 3 tier yellow cake with chocolate icing (the brides childhood favorite). She was able to incorporate the wedding dress design in the frosting and utilized bright tropical flowers to match the wedding decor. the bright colors provided a visual "pop" against the chocolate icing! The grooms cake was a square wrestling mat cake with the bride and groom topped grappling in the center circle.The rich "better than sex cake" was dark chocolate with chocolate chips, nuts and a fudge-like frosting.... rich and delicious...Highly recommended!

    Wildflour Bakery was wonderful to work with from start to finish. Evie did a spectacular job on the cake (exactly what I wanted!!!). The cake itself, was phenomenal! Throughout the evening family and friends could not stop commenting about how moist and delicious the cake was. It was my first experience at a wedding where the guests were requesting to have more cake. I would absolutely recommend Wildflour Bakery for your wedding cake!

    Evie and the Wildflour crew did a great job with our cake. We did a cake tasting (and we got to take the leftovers home with us!) and went over our ideas for design. My fiance and I chose a citrus cake. Evie was very helpful with creating a design for our cake. The cake was absolutely delicious and turned out beautifully! All of our guests raved about how great the cake was. The cake was a little pricey, though mostly because we had it delivered from Roanoke to Radford. The only issue we did encounter was the day of the wedding, the cake was delivered much earlier than confirmed (around 3 hours early). Delivery about an hour earlier than originally planned was agreed upon. It ended up being ok, but it did cause some stress.

    Wildflour provided a gluten-free cake option for our guests. My husband noticed the cake was chocolate and tried a piece the first chance he got. As our guests were lining up for our exit, my husband was ensuring none of that cake was wasted; he thought it was delicious and full of flavor! The managers worked with my mom to make it easy for her to pickup the slices of cake for our wedding and my mom commented on how nice it was to work with Wildflour! The prices were very reasonable and the cake was definitely worth it.

    Our wedding cake from Wildflour was incredible! It was so beautiful and each layer was delicious and moist-not that dried out paint-by-number cake that we were used to from other weddings.

    Our wedding cake was absolutely delicious. Our caterer who cut and served the cake said she had never seen people eat as much cake as our guests. We had 3 flavors - Better than Sex wth Cannoli Cream filling, Strawberry cake with cream cheese filling, and Coconut cake with Coconut filling. All three flavors were absolutely amazing.

    Evie was great to work with. She warned me in advance that because we were having an outdoor reception it would be difficult to do a tiered cake and have it stay gorgeous with the heat/humidity. We chose to do 4 deconstructed tiers. Our reception was outdoors and we had found tree cake stands. Evie decorated the cakes with gorgeous foundant leaves to match our decor. The cakes were not only gorgeous, but delicious as well!

    The prices may seem high, but for wedding cakes they are actually very reasonable. I was "shell shocked" when I heard how much our wedding cake would cost, but I can assure you it was money WELL SPENT and the cakes were worth every penny. There was not even a crumb left at the end of the night! Some of our guests had 3 pieces each!

    Aside from the dress, our wedding cake was probably the only other biggest splurge for our wedding day; if I could go back now and have the opportunity to go with someone else, I wouldn't. The cake tasting was amazing... and overwhelming. Evie provides a sample of each cake, frosting, and filling and you can mix and match as you please. She allows approximately 1 hour for your consultation and will answer your questions as she can.

    We ended up having a three tiered cake, each tier being a different flavor. We chose a marble cake with chocolate ganache and coconut filling for our top tier (which we ate ourselves after the wedding). The second tier was yellow cake with caramel filling and the third was devils food cake with raspberry filling and cream cheese frosting. The entire cake was covered with fondant, the bottoms wrapped with purple ribbon, and small beading around the bottom of the ribbon.

    I was always told if you want to make sure one thing is great at your wedding, it's your cake because people will remember if it's bad. Well, people will always remember my cake as being unbelievably delicious. There's really no way around it, Evie makes an amazing cake. It looked great, but more than that, it tasted FANTASTIC. It was a little pricey at $4.25/slice but it was worth EVERY slice and I had some left over! Thanks Evie!

    We had so many positive comments about the cake at our wedding, many saying it was the best cake they had ever had at wedding period. The price is steep, but we purchased our cake anyway because I'd always enjoyed Wildflour's food and knew that we could expect a delicious and beautiful dessert.

    The Wildflour Cafe is a local restaurant in the Old Southwest neighborhood of Roanoke, VA. For $10/head, we got an abundance of assorted sandwiches on freshly-made Foccacia bread, a wonderful dill and feta cheese pasta salad, tortilla chips and an incredible fruit salad. They are also able to do wedding cakes. This was a cost-effective way of providing excellent food for our guests and suited our outdoor Spring wedding perfectly!
