OUR STORY

Cakes by Happy Eatery’s story began with a family that loves really good food, fabulous desserts and a desire to share. Mr. and Mrs. Wu established Happy Eatery in Alexandria and quickly developed a following for their casual Chinese fare and scratch-made desserts. The bakery was one of the first to serve Genoise cake with whipped cream, and a tradition still available today.

As the bakery demand grew and shifted, the Wu family decided to focus their passion for all things sweet and moved to Centreville in 2002. The bakery created a full line of pastries, cookies, and cakes, and expanded their offerings for those with sugar free, gluten free, and vegan diets. Cakes by Happy Eatery was also one of the first places in the area to introduce bubble teas to the community.

In 2009, the bakery moved its operations to Manassas. Victoria and Emily continue to operate the business while their sister, Charlotte, lives overseas and sends plenty of photos of the desserts she encounters. The third generation is making their mark and can often be seen during their school breaks baking, decorating and making deliveries. Cakes by Happy Eatery is also proud to support their local food banks and charities. They appreciate the constant new ideas the community brings in and thank you for having them as a part of your celebrations.
