    Pastry case with Miss Julie
    Terri W.

    Yelp needs to add another 5 star option, for those businesses that are outstanding in every single way. Flavia's would definitely rate 10 stars. This pastry business is located in a tiny cottage, think She Shed, on a small side street in downtown Blowing Rock. Everything was nicely labeled and priced but there were names I hadn't heard before. Julie was very informative and kindly answered all of our, "Ooooh, what's that?" questions. We were torn between a couple of items, so like any sensible person, we bought both. She told us to eat them at room temperature for best enjoyment. She said the "Crème" is homemade puff pastry with a thick layer of Mousseline Cream. That means they take their crème patisserie and then add silky butter. Is your mouth watering yet? We each got a Crème and a Cream Puff. We ate the Crème first and sweet mother of all things delicious, it was otherworldly. We immediately prayed that the Puff would have the same filling. It did. When we go back next year, I'll be getting a treat for everyday we are there. TIP #1: Beware Donna. She was in the next store Serves You Right. She offered to take our pink pastry box. Everyone in BR is so nice, we thought she was being helpful so we could shop. Then we saw the humorous glint in her eyes! Pastry Thief! LOL! Donna and Karen told us that Julie is the daughter and her mother is from Germany. The mom makes everything in Hickory and they drive it up fresh every day. They raved about everything! TIP #2: They are closed every Wednesday, so plan ahead.

    Layers of chocolate and orange zest, a Hungarian specialty!

    Stocked and DELICIOUS! We found this small shop while walking around downtown Blowing Rock and the desserts we tried were so fantastic, we thought we'd leave a review. Everything was neat, clean, and VERY professional looking. We talked with the owner's daughter, who says her mom makes everything from scratch. I was most curious about the Dobos -- a Hungarian layered dessert of chocolate mousse, sponge cake, and orange zest with ganache and a dark chocolate wafer on top -- said to be enjoyed best at room temperature, but I think I'd enjoy it more cold. We purchased one of these and a key lime cheesecake, which had toasted meringue on top -- absolutely to die for!! You can tell they work hard and are truly passionate about their pastries. Unsure of their normal hours, but we went on a Sunday and they were closing at 5. Definitely worth stopping at. I kind of want to go back and get another flavor of cheesecake and maybe a chocolate mousse cake

    [Grade: A+] Located in the quaint little, Hallmark-esque town of Blowing Rock, this incredible local, small business has dominated my taste buds unlike any other sweets, dessert, or pastry place I've been to so far. We came here after snow tubing, so we were definitely craving something to eat after working up a sweat. Luckily we managed to hit up this place right before their December shutdown too! The first thing I thought of after tasting these cheese cakes was how rich, decadent, and how it was not overwhelming in any sense. It was absolutely perfect in the baseline cheesecake and then blows you out of the water with the differing varieties of cheesecakes. We got the key lime, oreo, and pecan pie cheese cakes and they were all so good in their own ways. There's a lot of fancy words I could use to try to recreate the beauty of how these cheesecakes explode in flavour, but I can only heavily implore you to come on your own and see what it's like! Overall, I'd definitely come back whenever I pass through Blowing Rock. It's a phenomenal rare experience, and especially an unexpected treasure of the area.

    Red velvet cheesecake

    Service was great! If I had questions they were very happy to help answer. I got three desserts for hubby and I to try. Red velvet cheesecake, peanut butter cheesecake and chocolate covered cannoli. I love to bake and make a lot of cheesecakes. I was not a fan of the peanut butter topping cheesecake. The plus side is they have such a great variety that I'm going back this week to try more. Everything else was delicious.

    Wonderful small business to support! Do not miss this place. The cakes and pies are pieces of artwork and taste wonderful. The daughter was the one to wait on us and she was so sweet and patient while we tried to narrow our decision. We purchased the apple crumble cheesecake and went back for a piece of the coconut cake. Both were wonderful. Both pieces were more than enough to share!

    All delicious but the lemon cheesecake was INCREDIBLE! Airy, light, and the perfect amount of sweetness.

    Flavia's deserts are what dreams are made of!!! Everything that I tried was amazing, but the cheesecake was especially to die for. Do yourself a favor and get an assortment of the best European delights you've ever had in your life. You will not regret it.

    Best desserts in town!! Skip the ice cream and grab a delicious dessert to go. It wouldn't disappoint!!

    Yummy treats.

    A great French bakery right on Main St. in downtown Blowing Rock. They have everything from…read morepastries and savory items, to breads, cookies and coffee. It's tucked into a great courtyard off of Main St. with plenty of outdoor seating, including umbrellas and shade on warmer days. We went with a sweet almond croissant and 2 different types of savory quiches, a bacon cheese and a broccoli cheese. Everything had fantastic flavors. The only reason this doesn't get 5 stars is because the warmed up items were still a tad bit cold inside. This is the second time we've been here, and had a similar experience the first round. With proper heating time, these would have been top notch and 5 star all around. We'll be back for more bakery goodness for sure. We'll politely ask that the items get heated through next time just in case.

    Was looking to book a reservation at Café Violette and discovered that they have a bakery attached…read morenext door! Of course, I HAD to try the bakery as I absolutely love a good "Pâtisserie". When you walk in they have a cute little shop with some French items for sale, everything from aprons to tea sets. They have fresh baked pastries and a few different pre-made sandwiches to choose from. I ordered their Lemon Lavender Tart, a Chocolate Croissant, a vegan Macaron and a Cinnamon Bun. My favorite out of all these was the Macaron which was made with a ganache instead of a buttercream. It is important to note that they have a phenomenal variety of vegan pastries which is great for allergens, but also it will not be the typical French pastries you would expect that would be buttery and gooey and yummy, so that was a bit different. I love that they import their flour and use quality ingredients, that's an "A" in my book. Their coffee was really good, I ordered a double espresso and was happy with it, yummy with the baked goods. This was a fun little surprise on my trip!

    I have mixed feelings about this place…read more We stumbled upon this place while walking down sides streets, after having a not so great breakfast elsewhere. It looked really cute and funky and I was looking to get a coffee to go. I noticed a small building that looked like a bakery and indeed had bakery goods and cupcakes inside. I went in, hoping to get a coffee and a cupcake. There was someone working behind the counter but she never looked up or said a thing to me. I thought maybe I shouldn't have been there, so I left. We went inside the building and finally someone asked if they could help us and they did go get me a coffee. We noticed there was a bar inside the larger building and my husband started chatting up the woman there (who I'm 99% sure was the owner) but she was super bitchy and not having any part of the conversation. That was enough for me (you don't me around? fine, I'll stay away) but for some reason my husband really found that bar charming and a few days later we went back. Luckily for us, Patrick was bartending that night! He was super friendly, and we spent the evening chatting with him. The drinks were good, and we did order dinner that we both enjoyed. He really made the night a fun one. If I was back in the area, we'd probably stop back in, and hope Patrick was working!

    Called at 4:30pm on Saturday. Similar to other reviews, I didn't know if this cafe was permanently…read moreclosed, so I called them. Like others have mentioned, the woman who answered was very rude and with an attitude. This was the conversation: "hi, is this the cupcrazed cafe in blowing rock?" "how can I help you" "what are your hours today?" "we're not open" "so are you guys permanently closed?" "We're not open" "okay, what time do you guys open?" "we're not open this weekend" "okay bye bye". For whatever reason, they don't want customers, and they don't want people to know when they're open. Wild if people think they can run a restaurant that way. You couldn't pay me to go there now
