Wildflower Cupcake & Dessert Bar: This Bakery Shop in Greenville, SC Is Working To Help More Than Just Your Sweet Tooth

Posted on |

Have you heard about Wildflower Cupcake & Dessert Bar? Cupcakes are amazing little personal size baked goods that can turn your day around. Making amazing cupcakes for the lucky folks of the Upstate could have been enough to allow Local baker Kristen Kay to throw down her apron and call it a day. But for this small business owner, cupcakes and sweet treats are just a means to an end. Find out what Wildflower Cupcake & Dessert Bar does for the Upstate besides curing a cupcake craving! 

Baking cupcakes allow Kristen to help people. Kristen is there to lend her talents to transform flour, eggs and sugar into fundraising efforts. Organizations like Let There Be Mom, Valor, The Booth Fairy, Asian Americans Advancing Justice, The Blood Connection, and others benefit when her piping bag get filled with frosting and a finished cupcake (or cookie) leaves the shop. 

The way she helps also manifests in providing a person with sensitivities, or diet restrictions that would normally keep them from biting into a delicious cupcake, that opportunity. 

One of the questions we get asked quite frequently at Kidding Around is where to find items for people, most often children, with diet restrictions. Every kid deserves a cake, right? Kristen makes every attempt to fill these orders that most places won’t. 

  • vegan/dairy-free
  • gluten-free
  • vegan & gluten-free
  • sugar-free
  • low carb/Keto
  • special request option – soy and corn free

Your child all of a sudden decides that Groundhogs day is THE NUMBER ONE HOLIDAY? Head to Wildflower for that celebratory cupcake to honor old Punxsutawney Phil. 

If you’re not convinced you need a treat from here in your life yet, I have one more feel-good story for you. 

Local floral & Veggie farm Wet Knot Farms suffered a terrible flooding incident in the Spring of this year. The community jumped in to help however they could. Unfortunately, the floodwaters made their edible items non-sellable. The good news is their flower crops made it, and now have a prominent spot in Wildflower Cupcake & Dessert Bar. Waiting in cases to go home with you and your delicious item.

My friend bought me their gluten-free chocolate peanut butter cupcakes and they were some of the best things I’ve ever put in my mouth.

Wildflower Cupcake and Dessert Bar is my go-to place for my daughter who has food allergies! They have been so accommodating & understanding in making “safe” treats for my daughter!
