Beechwood Orchards

I began working with Shawn and Melissa back when I was purchasing for Stone Tower Winery. When I redirected my focus to Wineberry, we decided to continue the partnership. Their stall at the Leesburg Farmer’s Market is packed every Saturday morning, with gorgeous produce and enthusiastic patrons. Most of the fruit and berries in Wineberry products is sourced from these guys.
Catoctin Coffee

Roasted in Lovettsville, just down the road from Wineberry’s home. These beans are the “secret” ingredient to one of my best selling products! Catoctin coffee is served at several local establishments including Stone Tower Winery and the Leesburg Farmer’s Market. These wonderful folks helped the cause when I was fundraising for Baker’s Against Racism by donating their beans.
Foggy Mountain Milling

The flour in Wineberry products is milled fresh in the same kitchen where we bake and decorate! Gabriel sources grain from local farms and sells a variety of versatile, whole grain flour blends. Local restaurants, The Wine Kitchen, and The Restaurant at Patowmack Farm use his flour blends and handmade pastas in their kitchens as well.
JQ Dickinson Salt Works

Our shortbread squares are generously sprinkled with this uniquely Appalachian sea salt. JQ Dickinson salt is sourced from an ancient, untouched sea below the Appalachian mountains. This yields a product that is free of contaminants and heavy metals that may be found in other sea salt.
Mt Defiance

The kick in our boozy truffles comes from Mt Defiance spirits. Absinthe Supérieure compliments the chocolate with delightful notes of anise while sweet Cassis evokes jammy berry flavors. Mt Defiance makes cider and small batch distilled spirits just down the road in Middlebrug, VA.
TCHO Chocolate

I remember my first taste of TCHO chocolate. My chef had ordered Valrhona, also an excellent choice, but it was out of stock. Our supplier sent TCHO instead. I tasted it, expecting quality chocolate, and it caught me by surprise. There was something about it, that I couldn’t quite put into words, that made it more delicious than other chocolate. I decided then that my own products would be made with TCHO.

“Tasha made me a birthday cake that my guests raved about nonstop. Not only was it exquisitely beautiful, but the flavor was incredible. The cake was an edible work of art that I will never forget. “

“Working with Tasha was such a breeze. She brought to life my dream of a build your own shortcake bar for my wedding. Our tasting was very enjoyable and the presentation was beautiful. The shortcake biscuits were moist and the fresh whipped cream delicious. Her cakes are amazingly decorated and we hope to order one for our next celebration!! If you’re considering her to make your cake, don’t hesitate.”
Alexa Yarboro Pettengill
“I could not be more happy with the beautiful and delicious cake Tasha made for a dinner party I hosted for a few friends. The lemon cake with Sauvignon blanc syrup and basil buttercream could have not been more perfect as the final course of our Italian dinner. And the beautifully hand painted lemon design had us feeling like we were dining in Capri. One of the best cakes I’ve ever tasted!”
Julie Jansen
“Tasha did an amazing job with our wedding cake! We were lucky to have her on board with every idea and opinion we put forth. She was extremely professional and sent us many detailed drawings of different styles of cakes and worked with us the entire way to make sure it was perfect. Her knowledge and experience knows no bounds and on top of making a one of a kind cake visually, the fact that it tasted better than it looked is out if this world. Awesome job Tasha! HIGHLY RECOMMEND! This woman knows what she is doing!”

“Ten out of ten-- these are amazing"

“I've been lucky enough to have cakes, truffles, cupcakes, cookies, and more from Tasha-- she can handle dietary restrictions, uses natural ingredients, and creates wonderful edible works of art. She uses subtle, layered flavors- the treats are always sophisticated and delicious!”
Elise Neuscheler
“My sister decided to gift me a beautiful cake from Wineberry Edibles for my 31st birthday. The moment I laid my eyes on it I was immediately taken aback from the sheer beauty of the decor. The cake looked like malochite or a similar crystal with marbled green matcha amidst smooth buttercream. If the appearance wasn't enough, the cake tasted amazing! Smooth cream with burst of sweet and tart berries inside. Exquisite and am looking forward to trying the other flavor combos.”
Terry Pheng
“Tasha is an absolute perfectionist in the world of cakes. She has a keen eye for detail and is passionate about baking every step of the way. When I had received a geode cake from her for my birthday I was totally blown away by the looks and even more so by the taste. The texture of the chocolate cake was perfect: rich but not dense, fluffy yet not too light. It wasn’t until after I had eaten this delicious cake that I learned she had taken the time to grow the rock candy crystals herself. Once again I was astonished by the time and effort Tasha put into her cakes.”

Hi, I’m Tasha.

For as long as I can remember, opening a business has been the goal. The concept has evolved over the years, growing as I do. It feels natural to be crafting cakes for you, as I’ve done for friends and family throughout the past 20 years.

I first sold my products at farmer's markets in 2013, then took a step back and spent a decade learning from some of the area's top chefs - most recently Tarver King and Luis Montesinos. My training in their kitchens enables me to craft elevated products that are visually stunning, with attention to quality ingredients and chef driven flavor/texture combinations.
