I had such a great experience with cotton candy baking company! Megan was responsive, easy, and nonstressful! Her cupcakes are to DIE FOR! We got vanilla, sweet and salty, and the oreo cupcakes. There was an actual oreo at the bottom of the cupcake!! We got a free freezer cake for our anniversay. Megan was in and out in such a brief time which was great to know she did her job without me noticing! I cannot say anything negative about her. HIGHLY recommend!

Seriously THE BEST CUPCAKES around. We didn't want anything about our wedding to be average and we Cotton Candy definitely helped us achieve our goal! Not your typical cupcakes. Everybody is still raving about how delicious they were. Our cake was beautiful and Megan does an amazing job. Megan was easy to work. Can't wait until we get to taste them again!

Cotton Candy Banking Company gave us everything we wanted! I asked for our small cake for the cake cutting to be covered in sprinkles since I love sprinkles and they did it with no problem! The cupcakes and cake tasted amazing and looked beautiful!

I was referred to Megan by my photographer and I am so happy we went with her! She has been great to work with since day one. She is very responsive and made sure my wedding cupcake display would be set up exactly how I wanted it. All of my guests have not stopped raving over how delicious the cupcakes were. My husband and I are now counting down the days until our first anniversary so we can indulge in the deliciousness again :) I highly recommend Cotton Candy Baking Co.

We recently had our wedding in Hatteras (during a tropical storm) -with a change of venue and Megan far exceeded our expectations! The cupcakes were delicious and she was very easy to work and communicate with. I would definitely recommend using this company for any event!

He first thing I did after picking the date for our wedding was to book Cotton Candy Baking Company. I had had the cupcakes before (triple ginger lemon!!) and knew I had to have them at my wedding. They were very easy to work with and the end result was exactly what I wanted. I would highly recommend booking Cotton Candy Baking Company for your own event!!

Choosing Cotton Candy was definitely one of the easiest decisions we were able to make for our wedding. Really all we had to do was taste Megan's samples and we were sold. Planning a destination wedding had some extra work involved but working with Megan could not have been easier. I would highly recommend Cotton Candy to anybody looking for a dessert option that has your guests still talking about it almost 2 months after the wedding!

Wonderful to work with - fast and easy communication. So many options to choose from, and all are delicious. She also works with you to help create what you want the cupcake table to look like by letting you choose colors. etc. for the wrappers. Everything turned out beautifully and our guests LOVED the cupcakes, we loved being able to cut the top tier, and cannot wait to open our anniversary tier next September. Wonderful and delicious experience with Cotton Candy Baking Company! Thanks again!

Megan was so great to work with! She made everything so easy. We sent pictures of various cakes we liked from Pinterest and she put together a beautiful top cake. And the cupcake wrappers fit our colors and decor perfectly. Everything she did went off without a hitch and she was super easy to work with and made everything so easy for us.

However, besides ALL of this, her cupcakes ALONE are enough for a 5 star rating. They are beyond delicious! We had some leftover cupcakes and keep them in the freezer and have one occasionally and they even keep well in a freezer weeks later. We can't wait to dig into our 1 year anniversary cake, until then we split a leftover cupcake every once in a while! I would recommend ordering more than you think you need just like we did, just so you can pull from leftovers in your freezer whenever you want. She even leaves you the carriers to make it easy to take them home with you. Best cake I've ever had! We did the Snickers, Lemon Shortbread and Key Lime Pie - YUUUUUMMM!

We had never been to a wedding with cupcakes before so we were excited to offer our guests something different. We liked that we could still do the traditional cake cutting with the package that we chose. We had 100 cupcakes and a small cake for the two of us. We chose Meyer Lemon and Almond Joy and everybody is still talking about how good they were.
We are so happy that we chose Cotton Candy and would highly recommend them. Easy to work with from a distance and the best tasting baked goods we have ever had!!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
