Purchased a birthday cake for my stepmom’s birthday and it was fabulous!!!!! The cake was beautiful and the strawberry chocolate was out of this world! Customer service experience was an A+ when communicating about the writing on the cake vs on the board. I can’t wait to purchase our next celebration cake from Magpies!

We celebrated with a galaxy cake! This bakery never disappoints. We added the decorations. The cake was confetti and tasted amazing! This is our go to for birthday cakes. Thank you again for another cake. We will be back.

Very easy to order cake online, a whole place on their website to order each and every detail needed per specific request. We ordered this for our birthday party at a venue. It was very delicious, had an almost ice-cream delicate flavor. Very very very fair price considering the quality and the quantity. Will be ordering something in the future. You can’t go wrong with strawberry.

I loved the oatmeal cream sandwich cookie i got from magpies! Literally, one of the best cookies ive ever had! I can't get over how good it tasted. The cookie was so nice and had such a moist and chewy texture. And the creme was super sweet and tasty, but there wasn't so much that it got overpowering or messy

The cake was delicious. They made us a vegan cake with no food dye. The smell of strawberries coming from the cake was amazing. Ignore my terrible cake cutting skills. They were very helpful and accommodating with last minute chaos.

Magpie’s Bakery lives up to its motto: “All butter, all the time!” I went today, Saturday, around noon, and tried their pies, cupcakes, and cookies. The chocolate cherry wheat-free cookies are divine, and the pecan pie might be one of the best I’ve ever tasted. The bakery itself is not a sit-down place—you pick up your treats, which is fantastic—and there’s ample parking, making it very convenient. The only disappointment was the service. I asked a young salesperson about the cookie ingredients, and she simply shrugged and said she didn’t know. While I appreciate honesty, it was surprising—and a little embarrassing—that she didn’t make any effort to find out. That’s not the kind of customer service expected at a bakery of this caliber. Yes, I am throwing her under the bus, because I’m pretty certain the owner would be displeased with that kind of representation.

Magpies are the sweetest people with the best cakes in Knoxville! They brought my vision to life perfectly and the flavors are unmatched! We had a traditional cake and a grooms cake, as well as some cupcakes and our guests loved every one of them! I had a vision to have a half TN and half Alabama grooms cake, with the inside being orange as a surprise for my husband (he is a Bama fan) and it was literally perfect with the checkerboards! I could not recommend them more!
