The south is chock full of classic recipes and secret ingredients. It's a culture that revolves around home, family and good food, long conversations late into the night coupled with homemade pies and a shot of whiskey (or two...). The apple stack cake tends to be looked over in favor of the classic banana pudding or even a solid biscuit or two, but this little Knoxville bakery is about to put the delicious southern favorite back on the map.
Magpies Bakery likes to tout the mantra, "All Butter, All The TIme," and all we have to say about that? Keep doin' what you're doin', Magpies! This incredible east Tennessee bakery shines on the cakes, cupcakes and pastry side of things, and we simply can't get enough.
Custom pies, cakes, cheesecakes, cookies, and puddings are available for order, but you can also visit the storefront for yourself when the temptation strikes.
Apple stack cake is a traditional Appalachian dessert, a holiday favorite that can be found during the holidays on the most southern of tables. Magpies Bakery has three ways to offer the treat, though you'll want to order before your event.
You can indulge in a five-inch cake for $16, half of an eight-layer cake for only $24 or full eight-layer cake for $45. It makes for a delicious and easy way to bring a bit of history to the table.
A handful of local grocery stores may stock the cake during the holidays, but there's nothing sweeter than supporting a hardworking crew from a local business.
The team at Magpies makes decadent works of art, but oh how they enjoy it when they do! This fun-loving crew whips up delicious cupcakes, cookies and cakes every day...
...and they're not afraid to get festive!
Don't these seasonal cookies look delicious? They're perfect to enjoy for yourself or to give as gifts, too.
These candy cane cake slices look incredible! What a fun spin to put on a classic holiday season flavor.
You can visit for yourself at 846 N Central Street in Knoxville, Tennessee, every day of the week but Sunday. Hours begin at 10am and run through 5:30 p.m. except on Saturdays and Mondays, when doors close at 4 p.m.
You can indulge in all sorts of homemade goods here in Nolensville, Tennessee, and it's well worth a visit if you have a sweet tooth.
