Fantastic wedding cake and cupcakes!

She did such an amazing job! The decorations and colors were perfection! The quality and taste of the cakes were beyond mouth watering. We couldn’t have been more pleased! We highly recommend Emerald Coast Custom Cakes. We will definitely be using them again for any other special occasions coming up!

Stunning Beach Wedding Cake

Heather was absolutely amazing to work with! I showed her an idea of the cake I wanted on Pinterest and she made it come to life and it looked even better. Her attention to detail is immeasurable! And OMG the flavors she offers are insane! Our wedding cake was the pink champagne flavor and it was to die for. I cannot wait to eat the top tier on our anniversary! She also did an Alabama grooms cake for my husband which was double chocolate and he absolutely loved it as he is a die hard bama football fan. She is such a kind and wonderful person to work with and her cakes are one of a kind! 10 out of 10!

Yummy sweet treats!

Due to COVID, we had to downsize our wedding at the last minute. Since we already paid for our large cake in full, we decide to get a smaller cake and cookies (to make up the difference in cost) for guests to take home with them. Everything was delicious and beautiful!

We got a vanilla bean cake with fresh strawberry buttercream and it was absolutely delicious! She also painted a custom made cake topper to go with our cake. The colors were exactly what we asked for and the cake was absolutely beautiful! It was also very delicious. We had a few extra slices that we froze and have been continuing to enjoy. We tasted cakes at 3 other locations and this cake was the only cake we actually enjoyed. We are so happy we got our cake from Emerald Coast Custom Cakes!

The naked cake was gorgeous and delicious! And very fairly priced. We met for a tasting and everything was so good that it was hard to decide on flavors. It was light and not too sweet, made with delicious fresh fruit in the buttercream. It was simply amazing and everyone said how beautiful it was! Heres a link to a picture...

I LOVE Emerald Coast Custom Cakes. Heather worked very hard and made the cake of my dreams. She is a true artist and was there for me all the way. My cake had layers of white chocolate/blackberry and lemon/blueberry. The flavors were amazing and my cake turned out to be the statement piece at the wedding. I highly recommend Emerald Coast Custom Cakes for any event!

Heather was super nice and helpful.
We did all of our business over phone and text since I don't live in Florida, and she still did exactly what I wanted for my wedding cake.
We got a lot of compliments on our cupcakes. They were delicious and beautiful!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
