Wally's Pastry Shop

Waldemar Uhl is no ordinary baker. He's a konditormeister -- German for certified master pastry chef. Wally trained for years in Europe, working his way up from apprentice before earning the equivalent of a doctorate in decadent dessert making. Housed in a small strip mall, Wally's Pastry Shop might not look like much from the outside, but inside, it's a gallery full of edible art, from the towering wedding cakes to the perfectly sculpted petit fours. Wally runs the place with his wife, Martha, and son, Manfred, who is also a konditormeister. After forty years in business, the Uhls have built a following of people from all over the globe who stop by whenever they're in Kansas City. "Some days when I have a bad day and I want to close up," Martha says, "someone I haven't seen for a long time comes in and makes it all feel worthwhile."

I have known Wally and Martha through their son Manfred. This family has history migrating from Germany to Canada to United States. Their pastries and wedding cakes are definitely the finest in the KC area. I recommend them for corporate events and any events that require catering.

This is the best pastry/cake shop I have ever been to. I recommend Wally's to all my fiends for their wedding cakes. No one can make a cake look as good as it tast like Wally and his family can. Thank you for making my baby shower complete.

For cakes.....it doesn't get any better than Wally's! We had them make our wedding cake, well, actually, wedding petit fours. They were absolutely amazing. We've had cakes from Wally's also and they look stunning and taste even better. You can't go wrong going here.
