MAR Cake Art

Marcela was GREAT to work with. She was very quick to reply and always accommodating. The cake she designed was quite a masterpiece and definitely a hit! It was everything we asked for, and more!

Working with Marcella was a dream! She is extraordinarily talented and creative. Our cakes were breathtakingly beautiful and pricing was very reasonable. She also easily handled some unusual requests. We wanted a traditional wedding cake and a French croquembouche. It’s very hard to find bakers willing to take on a croquembouche even in a big city like Houston and she did a fabulous job. The profiteroles were perfection. Also, because our daughter’s wedding was at the Houston Museum of Natural Science, we wanted to geode cookies for guest favors. Her geode cookies were realistic, DELICIOUS, and presented beautifully in clear boxes with black velvet to look like a mini museum display. HMNS even featured them in their monthly magazine. We highly recommend Marcella and MARCakeArt!

I cannot speak highly enough of MAR Cake Art Studio. Marcela is a true artist! Not only did my wedding cake turn out absolutely gorgeous, but it tasted phenomenal!

At our tasting and first meeting, I realized Marcela was different from the other wedding cake bakers I had met. She listened to my design details, sketched a beautiful cake, and still bakes and decorates the cakes herself. Because of this, she is able to craft something unique and personal to you and your wedding needs, not pump out the same three or four styles of wedding cake like the other shops. And her flavors...wow. Her cakes and fillings were so good, we couldn't pick, and chose two different flavors for our six tier wedding cake: almond cake with chocolate ganache filling and classic white cake with strawberry filling. She also stayed very mindful of my budget, which I so appreciated!

A month before the wedding, I was unexpectedly diagnosed with celiac disease. Marcela made me feel calm and told me not to worry about the cake! She adjusted and made two gluten free layers, one for me and my husband to save for our anniversary, and the other for us to cut and eat on the wedding day. From what I heard from my husband, you could not tell the difference between the gluten free cake and the regular cake at all. Both tasted incredible!

On the wedding day itself, our cake stayed a focal point in the room. Our guests couldn't stop commenting on how stunning it was! The comments didn't stop after they got to taste the flavors, and they ranted and raved about it all night.

I truly can't recommend Marcela and MAR Cake Art Studio enough to every Houston bride! I know I'll be returning for any of my special event baking needs from here on out.
