This was by far the second best thing about planning our wedding! We had 3 cake appointments and each had their pros and cons... except for the last place. She did an AMAZING cake tasting. Cakes by Megan in Auburndale, VA...First of all, she had 6 PAGES OF FLAVORS... ranging from strawberry Grand Marnier to chocolate chip. She told us to pick out 3 flavors and there would be a small fee for any extra tasting flavors. I wanted a full spectrum so I chose 5. My husband CHOSE 1 FLAVOR OUT OF ALL OF THEM... and it was chocolate chip. I could have smacked him (Breathe in, breathe out) but I let it go. So, we show up at the location and it is at her house. Her wonderful mom answered the door and showed us in to the sitting room. She was running a little behind, so my mom, dad, husband, and I sat chatting for about 10 minutes. Megan was in the kitchen tinkering away... and I thought to myself, what could she be doing? It's just going to be 5 pieces of cake.
OH NO! She walked out carrying two top tiers of a wedding cake! And went back in the kitchen and came out with 2 more! And then another! OMG. She gives you a top tier of the wedding cake to try and you get to take the rest home with you! Her flavors were fabulous and she is so friendly. I couldn't wait to see our our wedding cake. We even took the leftover cakes with us to Florida and had his parents try some too!

The only grumble was that in the contract it states that we wanted dark purple grapes cascading down the cake and when it arrived - they were green and light purple. No big! Cake was delicious and I would highly recommend her services.

Everything from the initial communication to the tasting to the actual day was wonderful. Megan is extremely talented and very helpful in visualizing what a couple is looking for. She created a beautiful and delicious display of cupcakes with a small top layer for cutting. It was exactly what I'd hoped for. If you're in the DC Metro area and are having a wedding or special event, I highly recommend you use Megan. I would definitely use her again!

Megan did a wonderful job on our wedding cake. The cake wasnt just the average cake you would see at a wedding. It was a castle with bears and dragons and tons of detail. THe cake looks beautiful and the taste was wonderful. Every one of our guests wanted seconds!!!

Megan made the most delicious red velvet cake for our wedding in November with vanilla buttercream frosting and cream cheese filling. We met with her at her home a few months before the wedding to try 3 sample cake, all the size of a top tier of a wedding cake. We decided upon red velvet and she gave use the leftovers to take home, at no cost to us. We wanted to use ribbon around the bottom of each layer, as well as some flowers on the top of the cake and cascading down the side. Megan designed our cake exactly as we wanted it and got it to the reception right on time for the florist to add flowers to it. The overall cost was extremely reasonable given the size, quality, and taste of the cake. All of our guests raved about our cake. Megan's cakes are affordable with great attention to detail and amazing flavor.

Cakes by Megan is a great place to get your wedding cake! Megan makes amazing cakes, with both traditional and fun flavor combinations.

If I could give her a 10 on the flexibility, I would. She met with us just a few weeks before our wedding, after our first cake provider's business burned down. For our convenience, she met us in a park (seriously!) and she brought plastic plates and knives and five cute decorated cakes. She was amazing.

Our guests loved our cake and we definitely made sure to grab a piece because it was just soo delicious! Pretty sure the groom had about three pieces whenever he got a chance! Highly recommend cakes by megan!

Megan's cake was fantastic. She made three fully decorated 4" tasting cakes for us to sample (yes, we got to take them home). For our wedding she created a top tier and what seemed like a million cupcakes. Her flavors are just amazing and the sugar flowers that she used to decorate the cupcakes were beautiful. She delivered the cakes to our reception site the day of the wedding. They cost a little more than I had planned to spend but they were so worth it. My only comment is that she was sometimes hard to get a hold of via email (the way I prefer to do business, since it provides a written record) and I didn't receive a copy of my contract after I asked for it. Fortunately, I didn't need it for any reason, but I would make it a point to make sure I got one in the future.

Mehan is great! Her cakes are so moist and delicious. She made our cake exactly how I described it to her. She also made my cake for my surprise bridal shower and it was fantastic. Not only can she make cakes for weddings and bridal showers but for other party needs.

Megan made a cake that was not only beautiful, but also tasted wonderful! We received many compliments on the way it looked, but also that it was remarkably moist and delicious. Megan give me personal attention and delivered a cake that I loved. I would definitely recommend her.

Megan provided a beautifully made cake. She gave us extra ("free") cake layers and her flowers workmanship was fabulous!

Our wedding cake was amazing and Megan was very easy to work with. We had a little bit of an untraditional theme because we got married in Las Vegas and wanted a theme cake. Megan worked really hard to make sure that our cake stuck with the theme but still looked like a wedding cake. It turned out better than I could have imagined and tasted just as good.

Thanks Megan for making our day special.

Our cake was amazing! I have been to a lot of weddings where the cake was beautiful, but it didn't taste great. Our cake both looked great and tasted great. I am still getting compliments from our guests on how much they loved it.
