"A cake that captures all of winter's beauty is perfect to share with the one who melts your heart: Royal-icing snowflakes, fondant pinecones rolled in crystal sugar, gum-paste roses and edible pearls cover four tiers of sour-cream chocolate-chip pound cake, iced in American buttercream and rolled fondant, and hand-painted with blue and silver luster dust, about $12 per person, created by Bredenbeck's Bakery & Ice Cream Parlor, Chestnut Hill."
— From Philadelphia Wedding, Fall/Winter 2007
About Our Treats
A lot has changed since Bredenbeck’s Bakery first opened in 1889. But one thing hasn’t changed: Today as always, we strive to make the most delicious and delectable treats for our customers. And we still do it using only the finest all-natural ingredients.
Everything we sell at Bredenbeck’s is baked on premises, and we don’t use artificial ingredients. We’re always busy—baking fresh treats every single day of the year. And since we don’t like to see them go to waste, we offer a variety of ways for our customers to buy our cakes and pies, cookies and tortes.
