“Amazing design AND taste!! Kelley made 3 golf-themed cakes for our birthday weekend. The large cake was a 3-tier golf "Caddy Shack" cake. EVERYTHING was edible, including the gopher ;). I hope Kelley will post a photo of the cake/s, since it won't let me do it here.“

“We got our first cake here for my daughter's first birthday and it was beyond amazing! The cake was beautiful and it tasted so good! Heather is so talented and we will definitely be going here every year! Highly recommend!!“

“I spent days searching for a local baker who could make a sugar and dairy free wedding cake, and now this is the only place I trust for allergen friendly desserts. I've tried many local bakeries that supposedly cater to allergies only to literally throw $40 desserts in the trash because they're inedible. But not Marie, the desserts she makes taste amazing every time. She's super creative and is always coming up with new recipes, great customer service! If you have allergies, sensitivities, or dietary restrictions, this lady is the baker to go to!“

“Best baked goods and Bubble tea selection ever! Blows away Panera and Starbucks.“

“Not only did this bakery have tons of delicious, sweet pastries, cookies, and cakes, it also had savory bites as well. I had a taco Mac and cheese pastry that was so delicious. The latte was also amazing!! Updated from previous review on 2025-10-09“

“Super friendly and fast service!! Our first visit and staff was very helpful!“

“amazing bread and quality. I've bought laofs meant for the week and haven't seen Wednesday because they are so good it's hard not to work into a meal. fluffy light and perfectly baked!“

“my cake was delicious and beautiful! the flavor options are wonderful, especially if you are trying to get away from the white/chocolate/marble varieties. Everything was fresh, I could smell the lemon through the box (because it was REAL lemon) and I couldn't be happier!“

“Everything is fantastic! Had the Boston Crème croissant, lemon lavender scone, cinnamon roll croissant, and the Irish soda bread! So delicious! Be sure to give them a try, you will love it!“

“Biscuits were not as flavorful as I was hoping; the sandwich was impossible to eat because it was so crumbly that it fell apart when I picked it up. The eggs were overcooked, so my sandwich was just okay. My husband liked his biscuits and gravy a lot. The latte was pretty good. It was quick and a nice little spot to eat for $10ish a person. Overall nothing spectacular, but a sort of mid breakfast place if you like good coffee or okay eats.“

“A friend and I went to the store this week, it was well worth the 5 hour drive! The service was super! The Box lunch was awesome! The Breads were the best ever! You will not be disappointed! The Blueberry cookies, challah bread, Ukrainian bread, pumpkin bread, pimento cheese and honey butter cannot be matched anywhere else! Kudos to all the staff who made the delicious bread and goodies! Well, worth the drive for old fashioned customer service and great products! Thank you to all!“

“I come to IH all the time, right on my street. This morning I got the mixed berry galette and it is the best thing I’ve ever eaten. Not too sweet, perfectly flaky, with the slight crunch of granulated sugar washed on the dough. It is absolute perfection. Please consider making it a regular 😍 Thanks for all you do. Great bakers, great staff, love the music. Thankful you’re always there for brekkie when I’ve been too lazy to grocery shop.“

“This was my favorite food in Richmond for breakfast/lunch. The people are friendly and patient with questions. The space is warm and inviting, but room for quiet work or reading too. And OMG! the food. I ordered it 3x in 5 days, including some to take home. Don’t miss this gem!“

“We used the mixing bowl for our wedding this past May. I had such a lovely experience with them throughout the entire planning process. They really helped us narrow down our options and speak to the way in which each flavor and icing style would present aesthetically so that we could help coordinate our choices to fit our wedding! They also were extremely patient as our guest count fluctuated and allowed us to edit our guest count accordingly up until the very end! The cupcakes and cake turned out BEAUTIFULLY! People were absolutely raving about how delicious the wedding cake was — some even said it was the best they’ve ever had! They also helped facilitate our design plan of incorporating edible flowers into our desserts. It looked so cool and unique! I would totally recommend them to anyone in the market for a wedding or event. They’re great!“

“Sefton is the greatest cafe in richmond, the staff are so kind to everyone who comes in. I get the same thing every time I come in to the point where barista’s and the owners know my order 😂. I get it bc it’s easy on my stomach, but they have such an amazing looking menu and are always changing it to fit the season! I always make sure to bring friends and family who are visiting here because it really is a special part of the community 🙂“

“Our experience with getting our wedding cake from Sugar Magnolia was the best! After submitting an inquiry, we worked with the owner, Ella, to confirm flavor, design, and all logistics. On the day, the wedding cake looked exactly like the inspirational photos we had sent over and it tasted even better than it looked. The price was great and we got lots of compliments. If you’re looking for anything custom made in the Richmond area we would highly recommend!“

“PIES AND CAKES!!!! Absolutely delicious, with a fierce commitment to their customers. We were lucky enough to have Chas create our gorgeous and delicious wedding cake. Not only that, but she prepared 3 tester cakes to enjoy with my family beforehand. I have zero regrets when it comes to my wedding cake-creator choice. I wish I could have recorded the reactions of my guests when they tasted this cake. It was deliciously perfect. Thank you Chas and family for making this the easiest and most delicious choice during wedding planning! Highly suggest letting this be your easiest choice, too!!“

“Literally the best cake I've had in a long time. The cake takes me back to my childhood...it was amazing. They made a turtle shell cake which we thought no one would be able to deliver and it was better than the picture we sent.“
