Cakes by Red Truck Bakery

Red Truck Bakery is a rural bakery born in a farmhouse in the Virginia Piedmont hunt country, fifty miles west of Washington, D.C.. The brand takes its name from an old truck that founder Brian Noyes, the former art director of The Washington Post, Smithsonian, Preservation and House & Garden, bought from fashion designer Tommy Hilfiger. Red Truck ships thousands of items nationwide each year, with accolades from publications including Oprah Winfrey’s O Magazine, Travel + Leisure, and Condé Nast Traveler.

Choose from:
• Alma Hackney's Rum Cake—Moist and buttery, this rum-soaked bundt cake is drizzled with a sugary glaze—the perfect hostess gift or addition to the holiday table.

• Lexington Bourbon Cake—We love bourbon in all it's forms but we're especially fond of it baked and coated in sugar. Made with a generous amount of top-shelf bourbon, fresh ginger, and citrus zest, it's finished off with a unique honey and ghost pepper-infused glaze. Packaged in a sleek and giftable tin, this extravagant dessert is almost too pretty to eat (almost).

• Almond Cake with Local Amaretto, Gluten Free—Rich and nutty, this naturally gluten-free dessert gets its distinct flavor from a splash of Italian amaretto produced by Mr. Defiance Distillery in Middleburg, Virginia.

• Caramel Pecan Bundt Cake—The same recipe as the layer cake featured on the cover of G&G's August/September 2020 issue, but slathered with even more homemade caramel and delivered in a beautiful gift tin. 

• Sour Cream Coffee Cake—One of Red Truck’s best-selling confections, this eight-inch sour cream coffee cake features pecans and cinnamon streusel both on top and in the center.

• Applejack Butter Pecan Bundt Cake—In Garden & Gun’s August/September 2020 issue, Red Truck Bakery owner Brian Noyes wrote about resurrecting the recipe for a long-lost caramel pecan cake. While the bakery is unable to ship layer cakes, this nine-inch cake is a Bundt-style reimagining of the same dessert, slathered with even more homemade caramel. Even better, this version also contains apple brandy from Catoctin Creek Distilling Company, located just up the road from the bakery in Purcellville, Virginia. This version of our caramel cake contains nuts (pecans) and alcohol (apple brandy).

• Flourless Chocolate Truffle Cake—A rich gluten-free option, Red Truck Bakery’s chocolate truffle cake is a decadent dessert made with Callebaut dark chocolate, eggs, butter, vanilla, a hint of espresso, and orange.
