The Wycked Journey

Wycked Apple began as a small family project that grew into something bigger than anyone expected. What started as a simple homemade treat shared with friends has evolved into a full gourmet dessert brand rooted in creativity, community, and joyful indulgence.
Founded in Indianapolis and reborn in Killeen, Tx, Wycked Apple has always been driven by passion ad the belief that a single bite can brighten anyone's day. Over the years, our family has poured love, hard work, and heart into every apple - from the first batch made in our kitchen to the 34+ flavors now offered in our storefront.
Today, Wycked Apple continues to thrive as a proudly family-run business, guided in dedication to quality, inclusivity, and community impact. No matter how the story evolves, one thing remains unchanged: our commitment to spreading wyckedly sweet joy, one apple at a time!
the family that fuels the flavor
Wycked Apple is more than a business ~ it's a family tradition in motion. Our son, Andre a proud student at St. Edward's University, jumps in to help whenever he's home. Our highschooler Amare, keeps the energy high and isn't afraid to get his hands sticky. Our youngest, Alivia, is already learning the ropes (and charming customers along the way). And last, but most definitely not least, MeeMaw is the rock of our shop-holding down the fort with love, laughter, and lots of smiles.
The Wycked Crew
Meet Anthony, our first official employee hired through our partnership with Central County Services. He has quickly become a essential piece of our Wycked puzzle. At the shop, Anthony helps dip apples, prepares and cut labels, and is often the friendly face greeting customers as they walk in. He's our in-store conversationalist - always ready to chat with you while you wait. Quick to tell you his favorite flavor is Blueberry Cobbler.
kisd 18+ Program Partnership
Every Tuesday at Wycked Apple, our kitchen gets a little bit brighter, our music a little louder, and our hearts a whole lot fuller. That's when our amazing students from the KISD 18+ Program join us ~ Young adults ages 18-22 with cognitive disabilities who are building life skills, confidence, and independence one task at at time.
Through our partnership with Killeen ISD and local community services, these incredible students step into the Wycked world to learn real-life job skills in a fun, encouraging and hands-on environment. From organizing supplies and prepping materials to helping keep our shop shining; they're learning responsibility, teamwork and communication in a place that celebrates every win.
To us, this isn't just a program, it's part of our purpose! Giving back is baked right into our recipe and our 18+ Tuesdays are one of the sweetest ways we get to pour into our community. These students bring joy, effort and a whole lot of personality with them every week. At Wycked Apple, we believe in creating opportunities, uplifting every ability and spreading kindness with every bite. And on Tuesdays, the magic is always a little extra Wycked.
