    We did a 4-tier cake with alternating layers, of the groom's pick - Chocolate Chip, which has passion fruit curd, chocolate crumbs, coffee buttercream and my pick - Strawberry-Lemon, which is made up of lemon cheesecake, pickled strawberry jam, milk crumbs. It was absolutely delicious, I'm tempted every once in a while to take a bite out of our "anniversary slice" lol. Our florist added some small flowers to some of the layers to dress it up a bit and our guests raved about how fun and different the cake looked.

    Delicious and affordable!

    Instead of ordering a traditional wedding cake, we ordered 5 assorted Milk Bar cakes in varying sizes to create a dessert bar style, and our guests loved it. We definitely ordered more cake than our vendor recommended and we barely had any leftover because everyone loved the cakes that much. It was absolutely more affordable than a standard wedding cake and the flavors were much more delicious!

    Same price but 10x better of an impression

    Had Milk Bar ship us three 10 inch cakes for our wedding of 130 people and people are still talking about our cake... Was similarly priced as a custom wedding cake but 10x more memorable. They were also incredible responsive/easy to work with and shipped it to our caterer to store and deliver!

    Perfect cake!

    We had 3 cakes at our wedding, one of which was a MilkBar birthday cake. It looked so good!! The staff communicated within 24 hours via email for the entire ordering process, payment was easy, and for the size of cake we ordered pricing was not outrageous. Cake arrived on time and as described and was delicious!

    Delicious Birthday Cake flavor!

    The great thing about Milkbar is that they are consistently delicious. We ordered a smaller version of our cake as an excuse to just eat cake, and see how it delivered. It is packaged well and there was no damage to the cake after arrival. It was still cold when we unwrapped the package, and still just as tasty. We look forward to receiving our wedding cake!

    Milk Bar is the Best

    We have been big Milk Bar fans for years so when we began to plan our wedding, we knew exactly where to go to order our wedding cake. Milk Bar’s wedding cakes are not only incredibly gorgeous, unique and whimsical- they are also so delicious, it’s like eating magic clouds. People are still raving about our wedding cake and we (luckily) saved the top layer to eat on our anniversary… ok… truth be told, we’ve definitely had a few bites of it already. It’s just too delicious! Do yourself a favor and go with Milk Bar for your wedding cake!

    We ordered 3 untiered cakes - Birthday cake, German chocolate, and Double chocolate cakes. Milk Bar was super responsive and helpful in creating the order and the size. The cakes looked beautiful day of and were DELICIOUS! The guests loved the cakes! Many people told me they ate 3 pieces that night! I would highly recommend ordering them for your wedding!!

    A Milk Bar wedding cake, what more could you want? I got married in June, and the cake was delivered and presented beautifully. No tilting, nothing melting, it was the highlight of my wedding night. Grace was so easy to work with, and was so flexible as I changed my mind a bunch of times. i highly recommend Milk Bar's wedding cake.

    We knew we wanted a Milk Bar cake and were thrilled with it! We ordered a tasting and decided on four flavors for a four-tiered cake, and ordered a separate sheet cake just to be sure we had plenty. It looked and tasted amazing! We love that we can stop by to get a little cake on our anniversary and relive the experience without having to store it in the freezer for a year!

    We ordered a 6-inch display cake and accompanying sheet cake from Milk Bar which worked out awesomely and affordably. They don't ship sheet cakes so we had a friend pick it up in Brooklyn the morning of the wedding and drive it down to Philadelphia. The birthday cake is SO delicious and everyone loved it. Highly recommended!

    As long time fans and frequent visitors of Momofuku Milk Bar we knew that we wanted our wedding cake to be from there for the longest time. While their tiered wedding cakes are gorgeous and we wish we could fit it into our budget, with about 175 guests attending we were not sure if we could afford it. To save on the overall costs we decided to purchase several separate party cakes from them instead and saved over $300 in costs. We purchased a 6" inch round birthday cake which we were able to customize with Vanilla and Chocolate frosting through their MIlk ID program to use as our personal cake for display and cake cutting. We also had Milk Bar write our initials on top of the cake inside a heart outline instead of purchasing a cake topper. By using the smaller cake for the display it actually helped us to create a really cool table setup where we placed our cake on top of an old vintage record player. The cake was small enough to fit on top of the turntable and allowed us to incorporate a visual element that reflected our love of vinyl and record collecting. For the rest of our guests we purchased another small round 10" cake and large party sheet cake of their Birthday cake flavor with Vanilla frosting that our venue kept in their kitchen to cut and serve. After the evening was all said and done we were still left over with almost all of the two round cakes to take home with us when the night was over. For anyone planning an event on tight budget that still wants to incorporate Momofuku Milk Bar into their wedding we recommend ordering their party cakes instead.

    We contacted Milk Bar rather last minute after our caterer dropped out, who was planning to provide our wedding cake for us. They were able to quickly provide us with a tasting box and place our order within a week. Given my fondness of naked cakes, they were a perfect choice for us. At the end of the night, everyone kept telling us how unique and delicious the chocolate malk cake was. We couldn't be more satisfied with the quality and value of Milk Bar's cakes.

    We ordered the Pretzel flavored cake for our wedding and had it shipped from their NYC bakery.... as a bride I was so anxious about having the cake shipped from out of state but my husband was a long time Milk Bar fan. We took the risk and hoped for the best n the end I feel silly worrying about it... Milk Bar is a truly professional bakery. The cake arrived on time and undamaged.

    Everyone at our reception complimented that it was the best wedding cake they had ever had - some even asked to take extra pieces home! Milk Bar definitely has great flavors and the quality of the cake is superb!!! If you want something truly unique try their wedding cake sampler you can order from their website - you won't be disappointed.

    We LOVED our Momofuku Milk Bar wedding cake! After looking for different wedding cake bakeries in and around NYC and getting so frustrated at the prices for something that most people don't even eat at a wedding, a friend suggested Milk Bar and we thought they would also be out of our price range. However, they weren't! We were able to do a 4-tier cake with 2 extra sheet cakes for our wedding and it was a reasonable price, SO SO delicious and looked so cool since it was naked. Totally completed our Manhattan wedding style. They were also very easy to deal with and totally professional.

    We also were able to pick up a tasting kit from one of the stores (I also believe they can ship it to you) a few months in advance and we tried 8 different flavors. We decided on the Dulce de Leche first because of how good it tasted and second because the color of it looked most like a wedding cake (whereas some of the other flavors had dark sponge cake or were multi-colored).

    Highly recommended if you're looking for a unique and GREAT tasting cake that people will actually like and want to eat at your wedding!!

    We got our cake from Milk Bar -- since wedding was out of town, we had a friend pick the cake up in Brooklyn and drive it to the venue. Milk Bar packaged it in the special insulated shipping packaging, and it arrived in perfect condition. Our guests LOVED the cake. It was beautiful and delicious. We also ordered cookies for our welcome bags, which we had shipped to us. They were also a huge hit!

    Amazing cake!

    Loved having Milk for our wedding. We were looking into different options but MIlk had the widest variety, it was easy to try the flavors and they delivered directly to the venue. We ordered 2 flavors: German Chocolate and Chocolate chip and it was so good we didn't even get a chance to take some home. If in doubt, just go to one of their stores and try anything, it is all delicious!

    We both thought Momofuku's naked cakes were gorgeous, so we went with a four tier cake w/ alternating layers of salted pretzel and apple pie cake. To be honest I thought the apple pie was a bit too sweet, but the salted pretzel was delicious. I know there is a concern that naked cakes will dry out, but both flavors were incredibly moist.

    Takeaway: the cake looked beautiful, tasted great, arrived on time, and they were incredibly easy to work with (e.g., responded to our email questions within minutes). Very happy we went with Momofuku.

    We were looking for a "Naked Cake" and all bakeries we contacted were non responsive and unfamiliar. Momofuku made an AMAZING and DELICIOUS wedding cake; packed beautifully for pickup the day before. The cake was delicious, and we were thrilled with how it looked and tasted.

    I can't even begin to tell you how delicious and beautiful our cake was! We wanted something unique and different and when i saw their cakes in a bridal magazine, i knew we had to order thru them.
    We ordered a 4 tier cake each layer with a different flavor. Ours was Chocolate malt for the 14" cake, then dulce de Leche for the 10", Vanilla Birthday confetti for the 6" and Apple Mode cake for the 4". It was delicious and all gone!!
    We did end up picking up our cake to save the shipping or delivery fee (it was almost more than half of what our cake cost). The pick up was one of the easiest things i did through out my wedding! They packed in insulated box (the inside had ice packs..it looked like a little fridge on the inside) and we put it in the back of our car. Easy Breezy! The cake did not move nor did it touch anything. It was perfect! You will not regret this cake!

    Our wedding cake was beautiful and delicious! We had it delivered to Chicago, and there were no issues. We got the chocolate chip, passion fruit, coffee crumb cake, 4-tiers, and it was amazing. People could not get enough. The only problem was that we ran out, and we should have ordered more! I have never had a more delicious wedding cake.

    Milk Momofuku Cakes are DELICIOUS! Everyone LOVED our wedding cake. It's a beautiful wedding cake that is so unique. The "naked wedding cake" idea was something we were really excited about and they made an awesome cake for us. Their flavors are so yummy and so fresh. We only had a three tier cake. We did the Dulce de Leche, German Chocolate, and Chocolate Chip with passionfruit curd (AMAZING!).

    We ordered the birthday cake for our wedding and it was delicious! We had it shipped to Florida, and it arrived a little lopsided, but the cake has a "messy" look anyways so we weren't that concerned and really what can you expect when shipping a cake. Very good customer service as well.

    Milk Bar is surprisingly affordable given the name and the quality they provide for favors. What I was shocked about how professional they were. Everything was done through email which made life so much easier and they even handled our monogram stickers for us at a very affordable price! Everything went smoothly and everyone loved our cookie favors. Definitely recommend for a different spin on wedding favors!
