    Beautiful Cake

    I thoroughly enjoyed working with this vendor, one of the things I realized this time around is that a lot of cake bakers do not give actual cake for the tasting but rather cupcakes. Charm City did not do that. They provide cakes in little glass containers for you to taste their cakes. As someone who believes that cakes and cupcakes taste differently. It was such, an incredible way of doing that. Every cake that we tasted from the sample we wanted however, we ended up doing a smaller cake to pick a 4 dozen cupcakes because we loved all of the flavors. Our guests enjoyed the cake and cupcakes as well. There was nothing left, which is always a good sign.

    Worth it!!

    The pictures speak for itself. We are dessert people, and being Food Network fans, we knew when we got engaged that we had to treat ourselves to Charm City Cakes. We designed a cake that was traditional and elegant on one side, but showed our personalities on the other. A tribute to Lady Gaga, with a Bride and Groom in the audience of a concert, and a lyric from our First Dance song. The cake deliverers were in and out so efficiently, and were the most professional vendor of any that we booked. For the 3 tiers we chose: Tandy (largest layer, and crowd pleaser), Coffee (Bride's Choice), and Banana (Groom's choice), and each one was happily raved about among the target audience :) Highly recommend.

    Perfect Alice in Wonderland Cake & Cupcakes!

    We knew exactly what we wanted for our Alice in Wonderland themed wedding. We wanted an 'unbirthday' sweetheart cake for our wedding party, and different flavored cupcakes for our guests with 'Eat Me', 'Try Me', and 'Take One'. Charm City Cakes did an absolutely amazing job! They were beautiful and exactly what we had pictured. We had a private tasting about a year out so we got to see their workshop and let me tell you, these bakers can do anything! I would highly recommend Charm City Cakes for your wedding, or any occasion!

    Cheers!

    Dream cake

    Charm city cakes in Baltimore was amazing to work with! They help you design your dream cake from start to finish. Our cake was perfectly moist and delicious on our wedding day, along with the leftovers we finished a week later. Only thing is you are limited by the flavors Charm City offers. I will definitely order from Charm City cakes again!

    Hi Ashley,

    Thank you for the kind words! It was such an honor to make your wedding cake.

    So worth it!

    We drove 6 hours from Akron, OH to Baltimore, MD two days before our wedding to fulfill a dream of having a cake made from Charm City Cakes, and let me tell you- it was worth it! Not only did the cake look beautiful, but it tasted amazing! Everyone we told that we were driving that far thought we were crazy, but we knew it was going to be amazing! We would definitely recommend them for anyone local, or even within a days drive (although I was a little stressed in the car driving back with the cake- haha!) for their special occasion cakes!

    Hi Morgan,

    Thank you so much for your review! We were honored to make your cake. It was so fun to design and create. Congratulations on your wedding!

    Thank you,

    My fiance & I met with Tiffany for our consultation and she sat with us and sketched our wedding cake right before our eyes. She helped us decide what we should or shouldn't include in the design and offered ideas of what would help us get the cake we wanted while still staying in our budget. And BOY did CCC deliver. Our cake was stunning and our guests absolutely loved the cake. It was one of the highlights of our wedding, since we tried to keep with a "game" theme. It was super fun and the cake was delicious!! Highly recommend Charm City - they were creative, professional, punctual, and super talented!

    Charm City Cakes's reply:

    Hi Ashley,

    Thank you so much for your review! We absolutely loved working with you both, and had a blast helping you bring your vision to life. Congratulations on your wedding!

    Charm City produced an amazing cake full of flavors that were yummy and tasty. Our guests were eating all of the flavors. Luckily Charm City had previously worked with our venue before and made the delivery a smooth process. They are attentive to detail and made our dream cake.

    I have had SO many of our wedding guests tell us how much they loved our cake! Several asked for seconds the night of and we've had plenty that asked where it was from. We had some left overs that our venue sent home with us and I have to say, it might have been the best cake I've ever eaten. We went with the Classic Maureen and it was absolutely perfect.

    Hi!

    We are so happy to hear that you were pleased with your wedding cake! Thank you for the review - we very much appreciate your positive feedback.

    Congratulations!!

    Charm City Cakes was absolutely incredible! They made, delivered, and set up a beautiful and delicious cake for our wedding this past weekend (8/6/16). We met with Charm City Cakes for a tasting and design appointment, and they made our dream a reality! We were able to try all the flavors, and they sketched out our cake based on what we wanted. It was so cool that we could make each tier a different flavor too! They even went above and beyond to partner with a gluten free bakery to make a separate cake for my mom and other guests who are allergic to gluten. Our cake was white buttercream with five tiers, beading, gumpaste shells, and blue orchid flowers for decoration. On the day of, they worked hard to set up and even put all the flowers on the cake. We got so many compliments from our guests that the cake was absolutely delicious! We highly recommend Charm City Cakes!

    Best cake I've ever eaten, hands down! It tasted amazing and our cake was absolutely beautiful! Everything was perfect, from the first consultation appointment where we sat down with one of their artists and created a sketch of what our cake would look like, to seeing the final product on our wedding date. They hit every detail and even included a miniature model of our Beagle, crawling up the cake and digging into the fondant (which was also amazing tasting!) More than anything, we were excited and proud to have a cake made by one of our hometown bakeries and even more so because even with their popularity across the Nation, they still made every moment very personal and professional. Thank you all for making the cake of our dreams!! We look forward to enjoying our cake top over the years to come!

    We received our Charm City wedding cake through our reception vendor, but we were extremely pleased! The cake was delicious and when I reached out directly regarding an allergy they were very accommodating!

    Charm City Cakes did our wedding cake as part of our deal with the venue. We did not work with them directly, but they provided everything exactly as we requested. The cake was beautiful and delicious, all our guests raved about it.

    I used this vendor for my surprise groom's cake (which we actually used at the rehearsal dinner) and it was so well done and amazing. I was worried that it would just look pretty - because charm city has some amazing designs (as seen on TV) but I hadn't heard much about the taste. I got a stormtrooper cake (as my hubby is so into Star wars) in peanut butter chip and a red velvet cake as well. Both flavors were amazing. People were coming up to us during the rehearsal dinner and kept saying that the cake tasted MUCH better than their wedding cakes. The price was very reasonable and the staff was so easy to work with over phone and email (I was planning the wedding long distance). Again they were amazing and very professional. SO SO SO happy with the cake and the service. Worth every cent. THANK YOU CHARM CITY!!! =D Happy husband and happy wife!

    Charm City Cakes were everything I hoped they would be! The cake was so delicious and all of our guests loved it!
    Whenever we had a question they were very quick to respond to emails, and we loved the opportunity to sit down and design our cake.
    We definitely recommend the Strawberry Shortcake flavor- it was our favorite!

    I have been a fan of the work done at Charm City Cake for many years and knew I wanted them to make my wedding cake for my Halloween wedding. Everyone at Charm City Cakes was great to work with and always very helpful when I had questions. They made our initial meeting so much fun. I still when one of the guys started playing the superman theme song over the intercom since we had been discussing our love for comics. Our design artist was Maude who did great at taking our ideas and creating a work of art during our design meeting and taste testing. All the flavors we tasted were great but we went with an apple and cinnamon flavor since it had a great bold flavor and would really work with our fall wedding. On my wedding day, I couldn’t wait to see the cake and had to sneak a peek while I was getting ready….It looked so great! We had a joker and Harley Quinn theme to the cake since we were having a comic book villain costume wedding and the colors on the cake were bold and really popped just like a comic book. All the details we asked for were included and everyone thought it was the coolest wedding cake they had seen but of course taste is always important…it is a cake after all. Many people talk about how wedding cakes look good but are often dry and the fondant taste bad but that was not the case with our cake. IT TASTED AS GOOD AS IT LOOKED…which like I said was AMAZING!!!!! The cake was moist and delicious even a couple days after the wedding and the fondant was just the right type of sweet to balance the cake off (I am not into very sweet frostings). Charm City Cake really did live up to the hype for me and I would recommend them to anyone in the area.

    Charm City Cakes captured exactly what I had in mind for our wedding cake. It was beautiful and delicious! Tiffany did a great job communicating with us about what they needed in order to complete the cake. They even made our cake topper which matched us and our attire, it was amazing!

    Full disclosure... I am a red velvet cake snob. So much so, that I thought I'd never get to have a really good red velvet wedding cake. Charm city cakes has officially changed my mind. Their red velvet wedding cake was sooo good and moist... my mouth is watering just thinking about it. They even gave us a cute little jar of our wedding cake to have in the event that we didn't get any during the night. So thoughtful. Can't wait to sink my teethe into the top of the cake on our one year anniversary!

    Our cake was absolutely beautiful! It was just what we had wanted. Charm City was very flexible and creative in meshing a few of my favorite ideas together. Not only did the cake look beautiful, but it was also delicious as well! We received many compliments from the guests about it being their favorite wedding cake.

    We had a specific cake flavor in mind and not one they usually make. They were more than willing to give it a go and we had a delicious cake that we were beyond pleased with for our day!
