Absolutely delicious cakes and cupcakes, and Mel was very easy to work with. So many different options and all were delicious!
Mel was easy to communicate with, flexible to our needs, and made us a delicious and gorgeous cake
Mel was absolutely wonderful to work with for our wedding! When we made the tough decision to postpone our wedding, she was more than accommodating and come wedding day she totally went above and beyond. As we could not come to do tastings, she brought the tastings to us and made it an incredible memory not just for us but our family as well. Her cupcakes and cake are mouth watering and she created exactly what we envisioned for our wedding desserts. We are still getting compliments on our wedding cake & cupcakes choice and its all thanks to Eats by Chef Mel! She is amazing to work with and we cannot recommend her enough for your next event.
Gorgeous cake!! My daughter wanted a milk chocolate cake with white " naked style " frosting for her wedding reception. Melissa used fresh roses to cascade down the cake. Beautiful! Then we cut the cake and OH MY!! So moist and delicious!!! Wonderful chocolate icing between the layers. Truly the best wedding cake I've tasted. Melissa was affordable and wonderful to work with. I would recommend her highly!
Chef Mel is absolutely amazing and made all of my cookie wedding cake dreams come true. My husband and I contacted Mel and asked if she would be willing to create a tiered cookie cake in place of a traditional wedding cake. She didn’t even hesitate and said she would 100% give it a try. We met Mel for a cake tasting and she made two full cookie cake samples with different frosting types and it was a BLAST (honestly one of my favorite parts of the whole wedding planning process). Mel is so personable and accommodating and of course makes delicious desserts. The final product was truly Instagram worthy, delicious, and I got compliments all night long (and I'm still getting compliments a month later) on how unique, beautiful, and tasty the tiered cookie cake turned out. I could not have been happier with the final product and it was an absolute pleasure working with Chef Mel!!
Mel was amazing!!! She was so easy to work with. She provided us so many options at our tasting and then when we came up with our own flavor combination for our cake, she even went as far as making us a small sample cake to make sure we loved the flavor combinations prior to our big day. She made the most beautiful cake for our wedding and it tasted even better!!!! My guests were raving about how delicious the cake was. I can’t recommend Mel enough!!!!
Mel listened to us and got it right! She made this part of the planning a breeze. Our guests loved the cake. The pictures of the cake are beautiful!
