Editorial review from Citysearch 11/1/2013

Don't go to this woman! Sent her pictures and got the exact opposite of what I asked for! She did the complete opposite of what I asked for when I sent her pics. Her excuse was she was confused when I called the day before to confirm everything and she yesed me to death. And the cake was lopsided and falling apart. I called to just tell her and she went crazy on me. And said ""I was crazy for ordering a cake like this for my daughter"" anyway. Oh and even though I sent pics she goes off of her ""artistic expression""!!!! Sticking with kitchen chemistry from now on. Hers taste so much better and she is much more professional! BEWARE!\r \r ****read the filtered reviews they are all true!!!\r more

Editorial review from Citysearch 7/8/2013

RETIRE!!!!\r NOT WHAT IT USED TO BE!\r HORRIBLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!\r PLEASE BE WARE!!!!!!!!!!\r My family has always ordered cakes from this this bakery in the past, and they were delicious and satisfying. Now in 2013 I don't know what changed but my mother ordered a cake for her husbands birthday and the cake filling was wrong. We just thought of it as a first mistake and it wouldn't happen again, than I bought a cake for my husband and the whole order was completely wrong, from inside out. Than foolish me trusted in them once again, I should known what was coming mind you. I ordered a cake for my sisters baby shower and embarrassed is not even the word that I felt when I saw that cake. It was nothing like what I had emailed her and printed out a picture of. My sister had told me specific fillings and flavors for each tier and the whole cake was wrong. Why take an order if they are going to give you what the he** they feel like giving you. Three strikes your out. No more ordering for us from this so called bakery. Not professional at all. So if you want to place an order don't expect what you pay for what soever. Oh and take a tape recorder for proof, because they'll denied everything. more

Editorial review from Citysearch 5/1/2013

My experience with Mary is not based on her ability to bake or decorate cakes; it is based on her professionalism. I signed up for cake classes the beginning of 2012. She had to cancel and stated she’d issue me a refund. After about 3 months of calling, emailing, etc. she finally sent me a check. She never called me back or replied to one of my emails explaining why it was taking so long. The check ended up bouncing. Again, I emailed, called with no response. Not once did she contact me with an explanation. I went to the local magistrate’s office to file a claim and won since she did not show up to the hearing. She was ordered to refund me and pay costs incurred for the bounced check and the filing of the complaint but never paid. I’m in the process of having the Monroe County Sheriff issue an order of execution to put a levy on her property. All she had to do was call with some sort of explanation but I never got a response from her. I would never recommend her to anyone based on my experience. A true professional would never behave this way. more

Amazing Cakes! 1/2/2011

If you are looking for that special cake for your occassion don't worry about traveling to the city to pay way too much for a cake by one of those ""brand name"" guys. Merry's cakes does amazing work and hands-down can do anything that you have seen on TV!\r \r I ordered a birthday cake over the summer for a surprise party- for very dear mentor of mine who was celebrating his 80th birthday- and the cake that we received was nothing short of amazing. All of the 70 members of the group couldn't stop raving about how beautiful and delicious it was, and how special it was that his photo was on the cake. A few months later we again ordered a cake for another member of our group and again we were blown away by the craftsmanship...and how tasty it was. Merry's has definitely become the go-to place for special occassion cakes around here, and whenever there is a cake at one of our events you can hear people asking ""is that a Merry's cake? Yay!"" Thanks Merry! more

YUMMMMMMMMMM!!!!!!! 12/13/2010

For our wedding Mary made a cupcake tower with different flavors and wonderful decoration. Our guests loved the new look of cakes.... it was delicious and playful. Thank you Mary for making our wedding the best day ever and i mean that....:-) you are awesome!! more

Made my wedding day!!!!!! 12/12/2010

My wife and I purchased our cake from Mary and it lived up to all of our expectations and more!!!\r The excellent word of mouth recomendations that she recieves from ALL of the local resorts and business people that have worked with her are what pointed us towards her shop in the first place, but the looks and delicious smells coming from her bakery had us hooked right away. The staff there was helpful and the setup was perfect.\r The examples of her work that line the walls are amazing!!! They are second to none - even the famous tv chefs' work pales in comparison!! But don't take my word for it, just check out her amazing website if you haven't already. I can attest that those pictures are all real work that she has done!!!\r If I had to do it again I would not hesitate to use Mary!!! I just cannot believe some of the reviews here, they are so unlike my experience and everyone I know who has gone there it seems as if the reviewers are lying or playing games... more

Best tasting cake and by far the most beautiful! 12/7/2010

From the second I started dealing with Mary and her staff it was a wonderful experience. Mary really makes you feel like you're in great hands.\r I went there for a consultation and was amazed by their show room. They customized a cake to perfection for my wedding and it was hands down the best tasting cake I have ever had. I was also pleasantly surprised how reasonable her rates were and how many choices she had to choose from. \r I would HIGHLY ADVISE purchasing from Mary she is not only a GREAT BAKER but is also the most amazing decorator I have ever seen and the only thing I can compare it to is the quality of work you see on TV. Thank you for a wonderful wedding and a lifetime of memories. more

Beautiful Cake ! Focal point of my son's Birthday ! Excelent 12/5/2010

Merry's Custom Cakes showed their true talent and creativity in the cake we recieved for our son's 1st Birthday. I'd highly recommend this business to all my friends and family, they made our occasion perfect with an amazing focal point. Our Oscar cake was the most beautiful, memorable, and of course MOST delicious cake. The teams design and tecnique's shined through.\r The smile on my son's face said it all. more

AWFUL, RUDE AND EXTREMELY UNPROFESSIONAL!!! 11/19/2010

I got a cake made for my daughter’s 5th birthday party. The cake was supposed to feed 25-30 people with extra if people wanted to bring any home. The charge was $88.00. When I picked it up it was much smaller then I had expected and could probably only feed 15-20 people. I voiced my concern and they gave me a few “sample” cupcakes. I was disappointed that I had spent $88.00 and I really didn’t get what I requested, however, it was time for the party so I took the cake and left. So we take the cake home, serve it to our guests only to find that the frosting on the cake was EXTREMELY salty, no one ate much more then a bite or two before throwing it away. To make matters worse, one of my guests found a piece of plastic wrap in his cake (luckily not a child). I was so upset by the whole ordeal. I made several phone calls to Merry, and wanted to speak directly with her, however, I had to go through one of the girls who work there. I was offered $20 dollars towards my next order which I was not willing to accept, she up it to $40 which I did not accept either as I had no intention to purchase another cake from her. I just wanted a refund for the cake and I was more then willing to return what was left of it. I wanted to speak directly to Mary; however, Mary NEVER returned my phone calls. I finally called back and was able to speak to her. She said she was aware of what happened, but just didn’t seem to care. She had a nasty attitude about the whole thing. She said I was lying about the plastic wrap in the cake, and said “I have NO plastic anywhere in my kitchen”! She said I would have to bring the cake back to see if SHE THOGUHT it was salty! She was very rude and unprofessional. I told her that her customer service sucked and that I was going to report her to the BBB. She said I “sucked as a customer” and that I was trying to blackmail her and ruin her business, stating that I’m “probably having finical problems”! She has to be the most rude and unprofessional woman I have ever dealt with in my entire life. The sad part about it is I was a loyal customer of hers for years, referring family, friends and co-workers to her; however, when I expressed my issue with the cake I was disregarded and treated with such disrespect by Merry herself!! I may have given her 5 stars in the past but after this experience, if I could give her negative stars I would! NEVER EVER again will I purchase anything from her OR refer her to ANYONE! ABSOLULY APPALLING BUSINESS OWNER! more

100% !!! 11/14/2010

I recently purchase a cake from Merry's Custom Cakes. When i call to place the order I had no idea what i wanted. The woman who answered the phone was very patient and helped me pick the perfect design for my mothers 70th birthday. I was very impressed with the selection of flavors to choose from. there were so many flavors I had a hard time picking just one. When i picked up the cake the employees made sure i knew how to get it home safely and how to disassemble it for serving. The cake was absolutely amazing and it literally sparkled. My guests were truly impressed also. The cake tasted great too!! i cannot wait for the next family party so i can try some other flavors. 2 thumbs up for Merry's Custom Cakes more

Some Of The Most Beautiful Cakes I've Seen In My Life.. 11/13/2010

Mary is quite the cake artist. I've been using her for about four years now and everytime I pick up my cake, I'm astonished. Her cakes are amazing, not to mention the extensive amount of flavors and fills to choose from. I've never been close to disappointed. If you're looking for a delicious, well- crafted cake, Merry's Custom Cakes is the place to go. more

HORRIBLE!!!!!!!!!!! 6/10/2010

Me and my daughter went to Merry's to order her shower,groom and wedding cake. We gave them a picture of the red & black mad hatter cake we wanted and they said no problem they could replicate it. When we picked up the shower cake is was a worker and not Mary. The cake had so many differences and was so ugly. We were horrified. We had no choice but to continue on to the shower. It should have had roses & bows but instead it had black round balls scattered around and odd leaves and flat daisy like flowers. We ordered pound cake with cannoli filling but got chocolate and the filling was to thin to tell what it was. It also was covered in spotty glitter which looked horrible. The cake was unusable for the shower but we tasted it before we threw it away and it tasted like a dry box cake with a sour flavor. When we called and spoke with Mary on the way to the shower to voice our concerns she just laughed and hung up on us.I emailed once we were home to cancel the other cakes and received a nasty response. It took 60 days to receive a refund for the other 2 cakes we ordered. This was difficult for us because we paid her in full for the cakes and it was only one month before the wedding. So we not only had to find a new baker on such short notice but the money bugeted she held on to until one month after the wedding. Even then I had to email her to say the 60 days are up before she mailed a check out. When I did receive a check it was minus a 100.00 deposit fee. Which was really unfair since she refused to make the other cakes anyway. her words were ""I wouldn't make you another cake for a million dollars"" It would take much more space then allowed to tell all the details of how nasty and unprofessional Mary the owner treated us. I uploaded 2 photos of a black and red mad hatter cake to the photo gallery. One is the picture we gave them and the other is the cake we received. I'm sure it will be no problem to see which one was from Merry's. I am thankful that I had the experience with the shower cake before I had a disaster on my daughter's wedding day. PLEASE LOOK ELSEWHERE FOR YOUR SPECIAL OCCASION CAKE. SAVE YOURSELF THE AGGRAVATION!!! Pros: NONE!!!! more

Wonderful Cake Boss... 12/2/2009

I have been using Merry's cakes for 6 years now and i have to say that i was never disappointed. She has made all of my childrens birthday cakes and Communion cakes too. i never had a problem with her cakes. SHe has a great sense of humor and listens very well to what you want on and in your cakeThe only thing i would change is for her to make the fillings more thicker.She does not put enough filling in the cake.But that is really the only problem i have had.. .I am going on my 7th year and probably will be going on many more years to come for her to make my cakes..Great talent! Pros: made the cake just like i wanted. Cons: had to wait about 15 min. till it was done..was'nt ready.. more

Within 15 minutes I was in and out...on Sept 30 2006 arrived and set up perfectly...everyone LOVED the cake...Just wish I would have ordered a bigger cake\r And for those that dont like the company...just remember its a cake....not an heirloom that passes down through the family Pros: special cakes awesome more
