The Flour Child - This cake for our daughter's shower was PERFECTION!! - Bakeries Near Me - Columbia, Pennsylvania

Quick stop after a ride on the Enola Low-grade trail. I wasn't sure Columbia had any bakeries, but what a find! It's a little bit off the beaten path from the center of town, but it has a neat, cheerful feel to it. The owner was very amiable and helpful as we chatted about Columbia. As for the foodstuffs, a macaroon, a butterscotch-pecan scone, a chocolate chip cookie and a strawberry muffin all passed our taste tests with flying colors. Coffee was decent, and the cookie dough cupcakes still sit in the car, untested. Prices for the above was about $12. Lots more stared at us from behind the diaplay, yearning for our attention. Next time, my friends. Columbians, you should be so lucky to have an establishment like this in town for the past 8 years! read more

I had helped with a Baby Shower recently and was entrusted to pick up the Cale. The staff was so helpful and this tier cake was both beautiful and delicious! Top layer, was white cake with strawberry filling and the bottom was chocolate with raspberry filling. The staff even helped to load the cake! I want to celebrate again just to have more cake! This business earns every star! read more

The Flour Child recently made the cake for my wedding - the cake was one of the biggest highlights of the entire day! They were very accommodating as our date changed (actually a few times!!), but they were with us every step of the way. The cake was absolutely delicious, and the staff at Flour Child worked very well with our florist as we wanted fresh flowers on our cake. I would HIGHLY recommend the Flour Child for a wedding or any other event. They had so many delicious flavors of cakes and frostings that can be paired together, which really stood out to us as we were selecting a bakery. read more

Friendliest bakery I have ever been too! Great selection of yummy morsels! The trash cakes are the BOMB! Great selection of coffee, tea, and other libations( non alcoholic). Tons of parking. Easy in, easy out. Close to Columbia Crossing boat launch and rail trail center. read more

You will not be disappointed. Ordered a cake for a meeting. Nothing but excellent comments on the cake. I would use again and recommend.

4 attempts made to give this place a try. Closed 3 times and then finally open hours and there is no products to buy. So I will say 3rd try was a charm and the 4th is the FINAL ATTEMPT. read more

Great to see such an established local business. Their baked goods are yummy and the staff is welcoming

I attended a wedding where the cakes where provided by Flour Child and they looked and tasted amazing! I ordered my son's birthday cake and everyone was so impressed with the artwork but also the delectable taste. I was worried I would run out of cake ha ha. If you don't want the typical, "run of the mill" cake and you're looking for something more creative and unique without sparing wonderful flavor; look no further than The Flour Child in Columbia, Lancaster,Pa. read more

The Flour Child made my bridal shower cake and my wedding cake. The service was amazing, Alixe even altered her butter cream to make it a little less sweet for me. She bends over backwards for her customers and her bubbly personality is so awesome! She's easy going and goes with the flow and her cakes are amazing. Both cakes were a hit with shower and wedding guests! And oh yeah, instead of suggesting freezing the top layer of the wedding cake for your first anniversary, she makes you a fresh one. How awesome is that??? read more

Tried this bakery today for the first time after a co-worker recommended it. Such a great little local business. The owner was very friendly and accommodating to our order and the store is adorable. So many great flavors and choices and the prices are very reasonable. Cupcakes were delicious! I will definitely be back soon and highly recommend this place. read more

Flour Child created our cake (cupcakes) for our wedding this past weekend and they were amazing! The cakes and buttercream icings are so good and we got such great feedback about them. We were extremely happy with the presentation when they came to set them up. Thanks for everything Flour Child! read more

Alixe and her crew did an amazing job at our wedding!! I highly recommend their services for a wedding!

the only thing i've had from here is the plain cheesecake, which i had while dining at bully's, across the street from the flour child. amazing! crisp, clean flavor that was so creamy and delicious. hope to go to the actual bakery and try other things from there soon. read more

Alice did a great job with my cake and proved me with great service. I asked her to make a small cake for a white elephant party. She did an awesome job with the cake, and it tasted delicious! I will definitely be using the flour child again! read more

Just got a cake from here for our daughter's birthday. Delicious. It looked just like the picture we gave them and our daughter was very pleased. I don't remember how much it was, but it was worth it. I'm anxious to try their other items, wish it was closer. read more

You guys made the cake for my daughters baby shower on Saturday. The guests are still raving about the flavor and quality of the cake. You are my go to bakery from now on! Thank you for a great job!!!! read more

The Flour Child did our wedding cake and our rehearsal dinner cake. The rehearsal cake looked great but tasted awful. The wedding cake looked bad and only tasted mediocre. The wedding cake was lumpy and uneven. The decoration looked half-assed (like it was done at the last minute). I was seriously unhappy with the results. Want proof that it wasn't good? Both cakes were barely touched. read more

I would recommend The Flour Child to anyone for their wedding cake (or any occasion for that matter). Sugar, spice, professionalism, and perfection! Working with the owner, Alixe was extremely easy and fun from the beginning. My wife and I started on the user friendly website to schedule our consultation/tasting. I couldn't help but smile the day I walked in to the bakery because the atmosphere inspires warmth and cheer. With no vision of design or flavor I quickly apologized for my lack of bridal skills. Alixe laughed unfazed, assured me that I was in great hands, and jumped right in prepared with photos and sketches of cake options. In 10 quick minutes she has walked us through designing the perfect cake for our special day. The hardest part was choosing flavors because everything that we tried was incredible! She said that she would create an invoice and it was emailed quickly. Closer to the wedding I called the shop to let her know that I had found a cake topper. She greeted me with genuine elation about our wedding plans and again put a smile on my face with her warm demeanor. She coordinated with our reception hall to place the cake and everything looked lovely on my wedding day. Often something is lost with vendors and they seem to forget that you're celebrating something special. The Flour Child made my wife and I feel like our day mattered and they would make sure that everything went smoothly. I hope this helps when you are choosing your bakery! Happy planning and congratulations! read more
