She is known for creating signature breads for the finest restaurants in Charleston. Eileen also bakes all wedding and occasion cakes for our clients.

Ashley Bakery’s wedding cakes have been featured in several magazines including: The Knot, Charleston Weddings Magazine, Southern Living Weddings, In Style Weddings Magazine, Southern Bride, American Cake Decorating, and many others! Ashley Bakery’s team creates amazing sculpted cakes, beautiful wedding cakes and creative special occasion cakes. Ashley Bakery uses invitations, paper, fabric and many other elements for inspiration to make their custom designs.

Wilson and Cindy arrive early each morning to provide the bakery with our fresh baked breads. Wilson has been with the bakery for over 35 years! Their skilled hands create several kinds of bread, pies and other baked goods for retail and wholesale clients.

We also have various other family members who pitch in from time to time with helping hands and deliveries!

Starting the year with an intimate wedding. Late afternoon natural light gives this simple little cake a beautiful glow. ✨
We filled a lot of orders for these today. They are a Charleston tradition, whipped Cream cakes. It started with Bullwinkel's Bakery downtown, moved to The Pig on Meeting, and then to The Pig in Summerville.
One customer today told us they've ordered these every Christmas since 1969. We've been a part of their family's Christmas and LOTS of other families' Christmases for a long time. We're happy to celebrate with y'all. Merry Christmas! 🎄🎅
Loving these vintage inspired cakes! A specialty linen was a perfect compliment to the decorations and a beautiful way to set off the cake.#ashleybakery #charlestonweddingcake #charlestonwedding #charleston #vintagewedding
