    10/10 hire Magpies!

    My husband doesn’t even like cake but he absolutely loved our wedding cake! When we returned the stands, I couldn’t help but buy more cupcakes. 😅💕

    Wonderful bakery!

    I Love Magpies! I used them for my wedding cake. It was delicious and beautiful, and the entire process was excellent. Great communication, easy to work with, flexible (I had a Covid wedding, June 2020) - overall a great experience!

    One of Knoxville's Best Bakeries

    If you’re from Knoxville there’s no review needed. Magpie’s is hands down THE place to get cakes, cupcakes, and sweets. We wanted to do cupcakes for our wedding, and we literally could not pick a favorite and ended up doing 6 different flavors. I almost cried when I found out other guests left with the leftovers because I was greedy enough to want them for myself. Elizabeth was great with communication, always helpfully sending over updated invoices whenever we made changes to our headcount and making sure we were paid out and good to go. I’d eat Magpie’s as my sole food if my doctor let me.

    They can create anything!

    Beautiful and TASTY! Everyone loved our wedding and groom's cakes. Magpies made the planning process easy, the delivery process even easier, and the most amazing products.

    Guests Raved About the Dessert!

    For our wedding, we decided to do a dessert table rather than just the traditional wedding cake. Magpies was so great to work with! They were very responsive and eager to help us achieve the vision of what we were wanting. After a delicious cake tasting (seriously the cake was so good, we had the hardest time deciding which flavors we wanted), we decided to do 3 different flavors for our cake. We also had mini pies which they were sweet enough to make little heart decorations on. Every detail was so well thought out, and the guests raved about how good the dessert was!

    Magpies Bakery's reply:

    Thank you so much for your kind words! We are so happy to hear you loved everything. Congratulations!!

    Delicious and beautiful are an understatement when it comes to Magpie's creations. From our cake-tasting and consultation to our cake-cutting, they were a delight to work with. The final product surpassed our wildest expectations. Highly recommend!

    Magpies was great! Elizabeth was easy to work with even though I didn't live in the area. The cake tasted amazing and looked even better than I was hoping. I would definitely recommend!

    LOOOVEEEE Magpies! They've done 3 cakes for us now including a wedding cake (lemon) and a grooms cake (carrot cake)! Both were delicious and we got tons of compliments on the cakes about how pretty and delicious they were. We also got variety pack cupcakes from them for the wedding reception and they were very popular and delicious! Love to stop into their cool store in Downtown Knoxville on Central Ave. and get cookies, cupcakes, and samples!

    Magpies made us a dessert bar for our wedding that included a large wedding cake, pies, cheesecakes, cupcakes and cookies. They were beautiful and I got so many compliments on all of the desserts.

    We loved working with Peggy at Magpies! She gave us a taste test to help us choose the flavors. The cake was designed by Sarah who is magpies artist and was super delicious and customized to fit our theme.

    Don't get your cake anywhere else. They worked with us to have multiple flavors and icing colors. We went with lemon raspberry and Italian cream cake on alternating gold and white layers, and it was the most delicious cake we've ever had. When we changed our minds multiple times on how many servings we would need, they were totally easy going and got us exactly what we wanted.

    A beautiful cake means nothing if it's not delicious. Our cake was gorgeous, delicious and had people talking days after! I am new to the Tennessee area but when we announced that we were having magpies make our cake and cupcakes for our wedding, I'm not kidding, there was celebration by family near and far that had experienced the delight that is magpies. And for good reason! Everything from working with Peggy to eating the cupcakes was a delight. We were sold on chocolate but then we tried her strawberry frosting, if you have not tried it please do yourself a favor and try it! Everyone loved the cake. I dream of returning to that shop and having her cakes many times in the future ? amazing!

    Magpies Bakery did a fantastic job with our wedding cake. We planned our wedding from out of town and found Magpies Bakery easy to work with. I provided them with some pictures and a vision for the cake over a consultation over the phone and it came out perfectly. The cake was absolutely delicious. They also worked with my florist to execute it beautifully. We were so pleased and could not recommend them enough.

    If you are planning your wedding and want the absolutely most delicious and beautiful wedding cake in town, look not further than Magpie's Bakery!! Magpies came highly recommended to me and I could not be happier with our wedding cake!! First of all, Peggy and her staff provided over-the-top customer service!! Everyone at Magpie's was absolutely delightful to work with from start to finish. They helped me design my wedding cake by providing samples and showing me photos of Magpie's wedding cakes. Peggy met with me and my Mom and designed my dream wedding cake on the spot. Every detail was customized to my liking. Peggy baked a three tiered lemon cake with delicate pink buttercream and fondant lace design (to match my wedding gown!!). Our wedding cake was stunning and was literally the icing on the cake for our beautiful wedding and reception!! I cannot recommend Magpie's Bakery highly enough!! They are above and beyond the best bakery in town!!

    We used magpies for our cake table. We ordered 5 round cakes instead of a tiered wedding cake and it worked out perfectly. They were easy to contact and made sure to confirm our order. Most importantly: the cakes were delicious!
