Mid at best. Items are good for taking pics of to post on instagram to impress friends, but taste is very lacking. Key lime cheesecake is two thirds crust, 1/6 marshmallow, 1/6 cheesecake.

I love this little place, their cheesecakes are SO good! I tried the key lime cheesecake and my sister got the pecan pie cheesecake and they were both incredible! They’re definitely large enough to split between 2-3 people and they’ve got a good selection of cheesecake flavors.

This Is a Destination in Blowing Rock, NC and probably the best and most unique desserts and pastries you will have in your life – all hand made. We couldn’t decide so we bought an assortment and came back to get more right after. The cremes is incredible – we bought like 6 pieces and all of the other things are outstanding as well!

From the Opera cake, to the tiramisu, to the chocolate eclairs, Flavia really knows her pastries, and has perfected her craft. Her cheesecakes are amazing as well, and the service is consistently sweet as her desserts. These are worth every calorie!

Flavia’s would definitely rate 10 stars. This pastry business is located in a tiny cottage, think She Shed, on a small side street in downtown Blowing Rock. Everything was nicely labeled and priced but there were names I hadn’t heard before. Julie was very informative and kindly answered all of our, “Ooooh, what’s that?” questions. We were torn between a couple of items, so like any sensible person, we bought both. She told us to eat them at room temperature for best enjoyment. She said the “Crème” is homemade puff pastry with a thick layer of Mousseline Cream. That means they take their crème patisserie and then add silky butter. Is your mouth watering yet? We each got a Crème and a Cream Puff. We ate the Crème first and sweet mother of all things delicious, it was otherworldly. We immediately prayed that the Puff would have the same filling. It did. When we go back next year, I’ll be getting a treat for everyday we are there.
TIP #1: Beware Donna. She was in the next store Serves You Right. She offered to take our pink pastry box. Everyone in BR is so nice, we thought she was being helpful so we could shop. Then we saw the humorous glint in her eyes! Pastry Thief! LOL! Donna and Karen told us that Julie is the daughter and her mother is from Germany. The mom makes everything in Hickory and they drive it up fresh every day. They raved about everything!
TIP #2: They are closed every Wednesday, so plan ahead.

Their cheesecake is so good!!!!! We had the Reeses cheesecake. It was so creamy and had so much flavor in it. Took me a whole week to finish this little cake. I think about this cake a lot when I’m craving cheesecakes.

Stopped here while walking around window shopping. Just stopped in this town at random as part of a road trip and stumbled into this place.
The presentation of the desserts was amazing. The lady working the stand was very friendly, and we took one of the key lime pie cheesecakes to go. The cheesecake was really good..
The prices were a bit on the high side, but it was a treat on a vacation.

Run don’t walk to Flavias! The cakes were not only stunning to look at but incredible to eat! We tried the creme brûlée, blackberry lemonade,Dubai chocolate, red velvet cheesecake and chocolate mousse… they were all great. The staff working the shop was lovely and so personable and helpful.
