We have nothing but amazing things to say about our experience. The tasting made it hard to choose! but we ended up going with a three tier cake - vanilla with dulce de Leche filling, strawberry cake with strawberry filling and pineapple cake with a vanilla filling. I highly recommend!! I’m glad we ordered for more people than we had because they all wanted to try every flavor. When we had to postpone our wedding, Custom Cake was understanding and worked with us. I hope to have them make our cakes for future events as well. -

Tyrika Sent on 09/23/2017Wow, when I say this was meant to be, it was meant to be. My husband and I and already chosen a cake place but forgotten to cancel our cake tasting with custom cake design. Well when we arrived we fell in love with the cakes and the rest is history. Thank you Custom Cakes for bringing my cake design to life, people are still talking about how beautiful it was! -

Meredith Sent on 10/19/2016Custom Cake Design was amazing - don't let the industrial park where they are located mislead you! We had done a cake tasting at another bakery before, and Custom Cake Design was hands down the best choice! There was such a wide variety of flavors and combinations that we could choose in order to make it unique to us. While debating over our flavors, the staff pointed out that they could make each layer a different flavor. No one at our tasting had to compromise on what they wanted! When it came to design it was so easy. They listened to what we wanted, and it came out absolutely stunning - they even matched the blue to my bridesmaid's dresses! We were able to drop off our cake topper as soon as it arrived, and at that time Custom Cake Design even allowed us to add Gluten- and Dairy-free cupcakes to our order so that we could accommodate all of our guests. The cake was delicious, and to top it all off, Custom Cake Design even provided a small box with directions in order for us to preserve our top layer. We will be going to Custom Cake Design for any future bakery needs we have! -

Karen Sent on 11/18/2014We opted for a cupcake tower for our wedding in lieu of a cake. It was absolutely stunning and elegant. My husband and I went for a tasting on a Saturday morning and roughly 20 flavors of cake were presented to us. The hardest part about working with Custom Cake Design is that, all of the flavors were so delicious, it made it difficult to decide on just three. All of my guests raved about the cupcakes. We ordered 120 for 88 guests and there were only a few left over at the end of the wedding. Overall, they were delicious, beautiful, and reasonably priced. I highly recommend Custom Cake Design for any special event. -

Leanna Sent on 11/05/2013Can't mark Custom Cake Design down for a single thing! They are so fabulous. Cake was delicious and beautiful. We also had cake pops and a chocolate fountain (with manyyy fabulous dippers) from them! They are so accommodating and truly listen to what you want! Raquel is so sweet! Everyone was so friendly and professional the day of. And I was so excited to see how well my vision translated to the final product! Side note: Their chocolate fountain is the best! Not just some cheap melted chocolate but delicious Belgian chocolate! Yummm! -

Sahar Sent on 05/10/2013I loved the cake selecting process the most during my wedding planning. Raquel is a sweetheart and very talented. I wish I had more left over cake the next day because it was so good! I have the anniversary top tier to look forward to! Even though her bakery is far from where I live, it is definitely worth it!

Shari Sent on 04/22/2013We had our wedding cake provided by Custom Cake in Gaithersburg and it is, still to this day, the best cake i've had. Our wedding was at Montgomery Country Club in July 2012 and Custom Cake was one of the featured vendors. They were very helpful when it came to the design that we wanted and accommodated us with the flavors that we couldnt choose between. The tasting was simple and quick, truly the fastest vendor we spent time with. I would definitely use their services for future events! Loved our cake!! -

Elizabeth Sent on 11/08/2012This vendor was a no-brainer! We didn't want to search high and low for a bakery and Custom Cake Design had some really great reviews so we visited them for one of their open houses. We knew right away we would go with them, but then we had to choose the flavor, design, etc. which can be really difficult. We went back to the next month's open house to finalize these details and order the cake. There are A LOT of pictures actual cakes in their store to look at to help you make your decision. The ordering process was extremely easy and we had zero issues with Custom Cake Design. They arrived earlier than expected on the wedding day and were so pleasant to work with. My mom surprised me for my Bridal Shower and ordered the cake PLUS COOKIES from them also. The cookies are BEAUTIFUL and DELICIOUS...a big hit with all the bridal shower guests, and my now husband really enjoyed the left over cookies, too. -

Kathryn Sent on 05/30/2012I had the perfect experience and have absolutely nothing to complain about. My fiance and I went to two tastings, one just the two of us, and another with our mothers. There were so many great choices to choose from, but eventually we chose the Butter Rum with Butter Cream frosting. We had a three-tier stacked cake with swiss dots, and ribbon at the bottom of each layer. We ordered the cake through our venue and paid a very small upgrade fee for the design.
A week before the wedding, I dropped off the ribbon, cake topper, and pictures of exactly what I wanted. I had read reviews on WeddingWire which said that people had separations in their cake even though they didn't want it, but I did not have a problem at all. Custom Cake worked with my venue to coordinate the drop off of the cake so I didn't have to worry about a thing the day of.
The cake was DELICIOUS and BEAUTIFUL! We couldn't be happier and can't wait until the 1yr anniversary to have another piece. -

Dorothy Sent on 11/01/2011Absolutely DELICIOUS! These bakers have been in business for a long time (as evidenced by their many photo albums filled with pictures of wedding cakes they've done) and it truly shows in their work. There are VERY many options to chose from as far as flavors and fillings, and we went with their most popular, the white raspberry with champagne frosting. It was light and delicious and a huge crowd pleaser! We got a lot of compliments on our cake. It was also beautiful!!! Exactly what I described during our consultation. I highly recommend Custom Cake Design! -

Erin Sent on 07/20/2010We used Custom Cake Design as a part of our Platinum package through the Holiday Inn Gaithersburg. We were very pleased with this company overall. We were able to come to their stores for a tasting. Their show room and picture books provided us with plenty of ideas for the design as well. They were helpful with creating the design for our cake and really listened to what we wanted! They even helped in ordering the monogram for the top of our cake. We would definitely recommend them to others. -

Liz Sent on 05/07/2010If you want a deliciously scrumptious cake, Custom Cake Design is where you have to go!!!! :) My husband and I attended the monthly tasting and we really had a hard time choosing flavors because they were all just incredibly yummy!!! Although the white raspberry was my absolute favorite (to die for!!!), my husband chose the almond flavor and so we felt we should have a dark cake too...so we went with the chocolate raspberry. The cake itself was an absolute dream. :) I wanted to have the design on the cake match the design of my wedding invitations and the cake far exceeded my expectations. It was absolutely gorgeous!!!!! Everyone commented how stunningly beautiful the cake was and we were beyond pleased. It was exactly what we had dreamed of and more. :) We also had a beautiful chocolate fondue table set up by Custom Cake Design and that was the real hit of the evening. All of our guests were in chocolate heaven!!!! I would highly recommend this company as you will not only have excellent service, but very happy tummies as well. :) I want to especially thank Raquel and Nancy for their supreme service, care and helpfulness with everything, it was truly a pleasure to work with them. Right now I am impatiently waiting for another event (birthday, baby shower, anniversary, anything!) to come along so I can order another cake with them...this time in the white raspberry, LOL!!!! :) -

Elizabeth Sent on 04/29/2009Wedding cake was included in our hotel reception package from this vendor. We chose basic cake which was very nice - several flavor choices. Can't really speak to extensive negotiations or pricing as we did not get into this aspect. Very pleased all in all. -

Attack on titan
This bakery will be my bakery for LIFE! The way they helped me decide the flavors and how flexible they were with my requests!! The way the cake turned out to be! I am in awe! Cake was supposed to be enough for 10 people but it was so big to feed more people than that! I love it so much and i will always recommend!

Yummy cake and nice design
We worked with CCD through our venue, Milton Ridge. During our tasting we were met with so many delicious flavors and cake styles! Everything was so nice and so yummy it was difficult to choose. We ended with butter rum and a lemon raspberry cake. Our guests were in LOVE! So moist and tasted just as good as it did during the tasting. Our cake design was talked through and the finished product was very on theme for our wedding. -

Graduation cake
The graduation cake for my grandson was beautiful! Delicious red velvet with buttercream icing. The attendees were amazed at how delicious the cake was and how talented the cake designer did. I will definitely use custom cakes again. -
