“My husband and I discovered Williams Bakery last holiday season, when I was seeking a gingerbread cookie fix, and my husband came home with these colorful and delicious cookies! Thinking these delightful gingerbread treats were only available during the holiday season, we mistakenly didn’t visit Williams Bakery again until a couple of weeks ago. Here’s the great news: they actually have these wonderful gingerbread cookies year-round, we found out on our most recent visit!So what’s so special about these gingerbread cookies? Loaded with strong ginger, cinnamon, nutmeg, clove, and molasses flavors, this cookie features crispy edges with a tender center that melts in your mouth. An exciting treat, each bite builds a little from the spice blend, giving your body and soul that all-over warmth that only wintertime spices can. Decorated with a soft, velvety buttercream icing that acts as a sweet foil to the spiciness of the gingerbread, these ginger men and women were donned with candy-coated chocolates as well. Each burst of chocolate flavor combined with the spicy profile of the cookie really made for an interesting and well-balanced experience. As you may imagine, we have decided that Williams Bakery is *the* place to find authentic and delicious gingerbread cookies!Now, it was bright and early in the morning when we arrived at Williams Bakery to relive the past holiday’s memories, and it was chock full of patrons, as well as baked goods! I took myself and my camera on a short tour, as it was crowded (rightfully so!) and therefore difficult to snap lots of photos. Each and every shelf, nook, and table was occupied by the most delightful treats, ranging from classic oatmeal raisin cookies, decadent oatmeal chocolate chunk cookies, colorful M&Ms cookies, their very own Spice Cookies, light and airy angel food cakes, luxurious breads stuffed with nuts and fresh orange, as well as ready-to-heat and serve cream cheese frosting smothered cinnamon rolls. Why, there was even a gingerbread cookie kit for you to decorate your own gingerbread cookies with your loved ones!In addition to the walls and tables piled high with these culinary delights, there was an ample counter stuffed with individual donuts of all sorts, cookies, and other exquisite pastries to be purchased a la carte or by the dozen. Knowing that we were saving our gingerbread cookies for later in the day, we knew we had the perfect reason to order some fresh baked donuts to start our holiday morning, and promptly requested both a lemon filled donut and a cream filled donut.As soon as we got home, we neatly divided each donut so that we could share our breakfast, and each experience the flavors and textures we were so excited about! These donuts were both baked so nicely, with a delicately crisp but tender outside, with a light, fluffy but still doughy inside. What made these donuts sing was their balanced composition, as each was filled with just the right amount of creamy filling, ensuring that each bite had the proper ratio of filling to donut. As for the lemon filling, it gave the perfect amount of “pucker;” it was a well-balanced, sweet and sour flavor with a rich and cheerful attitude. A smooth, ambrosial cream filled the second donut, with its farm fresh ingredients and balanced textures.Hopefully, you can see how joyous our trips to Williams Bakery have been, and you know we’ll be back time and time again. If this location of Williams Bakery is farther from you, don’t worry, there are two more locations in the Richmond area that should suit you!Parking: People are in and out quickly (such fast service!), so there is parking available!“

“Sugar & Salt RVA made my “cancer free” celebration cake. It was absolutely beautifully decorated. The cake was dark chocolate with cookies and cream between the layers and buttercream frosting. So moist, so rich, so creamy, so perfect! Thank you! Would recommend their cakes for all special occasions!“

“We had a cake and dessert table made for our wedding. Couldn't have been more satisfied. Easy to work with, super professional, clearly passionate about their flavors. The amount of ideas we were given for the dessert table was incredible. Tough to choose. We looked at 3 other bakeries and picking Sweet Fix was the easiest decision we made.“

“We decided to use Incredible Edibles for our wedding and it was the best and easiest choice! They made the tasting SO easy, with a local pick up and at home tasting. We honestly had a hard time choosing what flavors to go with because they were all SO good. We went with a small, simple design for our cutting cake as well some sheet cakes for our guests. My dad (who is a big dessert guy) said it was the best wedding cake he's ever had. Thank you to the team at Incredible Edibles Bakery for making the most beautiful and delicious cake as well as being SO easy to work with!-Lindsey and Colin Ah - The Estate at River Run 5.14.22“
