The Flour Child at 646 Union Street, Columbia, Pennsylvania.

Went for a cake tasting for our upcoming wedding. Had been to other "tastings" and consults which were super awkward and even had one place tell me they refused to do business with us because our wedding is on the smaller side. (About 75 invited)

But we came into this little shop, Alixe kindly reaaragned our appointment at short notice due to my work schedule changing. We ended up only being able to come in an hour before they closed. It was a little hard to determine which building was theirs, but after finally seeing cakes in the display windows we knew where to go.

We were offered complimentary water, coffee, tea, and sat down with one of the bakers and she explained how they do their cakes, and gave us some photos to look at while she put together our cakes to test.

She came back with 4 HUGE cupcakes, 4 dollops of icing, and 2 fillers. We had chosen the flavors online when we scheduled our consult. We LOVE sweets haha so the look on my fiancee's face was priceless when he saw all the cake we got to try! Most other places give you a bite of cake of 2 or 3 flavors. Which is fine. But these guys really go above and beyond. And it was so cute too, all arranged nicely on cute plates etc. It just felt special.

We decided on style and flavors and consulted with her again while she wrote down what we said we wanted. We really wanted a classic 3-tier cake but with the small amt of guests, they suggested we do the bottom 2 rounds fake cake, that they decorate with our little cake on top real for us, and then they would make enough cakes for our guests to be cut and served in the back that wouldn't have to be part of the show. Such a relief to be doing business with someone who understands what customers want and is flexible enough to make that happen! We received our invoice quickly and decided (as if it was a question) to book with tfc.

We couldn't resist leaving the cute little shop without some sweets to take home (the cakes really are that good) I even came back the following week to pick up some more cupcakes!

I can't wait to add to this review after our wedding but I'm certain everything will go smoothly and will taste delicious!
