We had a little 8 or 9" cutting cake for the wedding party and like 8 dozen cupcakes and half a dozen gluten free cupcakes. Mary went above and beyond decorating!
I wanted real flowers on the cakes and told her that just a flower on each one would be just fine since that would be labor intensive already - since she would be doing it on-site. But she stuck around a long time and put beautiful mini arrangements on each one!
I sent her pics on Pinterest of the look/vibe I desired and she definitely delivered. Our guest with celiac disease said that the cupcakes were "super good!" . Highly recommend the lemon cake with lemon filling.
My advice to couples: practice cutting a layered cake at home. I did a terrible job and the slice fell into pieces lol. It made for a funny photo though. My husband did a much better job when I let him take over carving duties,
We hired Maribelle to do our wedding cake for our December 2022 wedding at The Monastery. Our cake turned out beautifully, and their staff worked with us to come up with more cost-effective ways but still achieve my same vision! But we were disappointed in the end result of the icing on the cake. It ended up tasting like a whipped icing rather than a traditional buttercream which is my preference and what we thought we tasted a sample of earlier in that year. The flavors were still great (raspberry and white chocolate & cookies and cream), and they assisted with adding the flowers that my florist dropped off! There was a bit of confusion with our cake stand. We were under the impression that it would be picked up after the event by Maribelle, but I ultimately had to drive to my venue, pick it up, and return it a couple weeks later. Overall, we were happy with our choice in Maribelle! They make a beautiful wedding cake no matter the design!
The cake samples were well worth the cost and time to get them. We enjoyed several flavors and ultimately decided on a three-tier cake with layers containing either the pumpkin or lemon cake. Working with Mary Beth made the entire process go smoothly, especially narrowing down our cake decorating idea to a simple and elegant cake. We truly had a wonderful experience and are looking forward to opportunities to use Maribelle Cakery in the future.
We hired Maribelle for our wedding cake. First things first, the cake was absolutely beautiful, and tasted great! Our guests had only great things to say about the cake. It was perfect. Also, throughout this whole process, communication was very easy and pleasant. We are grateful to Maribelle for everything, and would definitely recommend them to anyone!
Highly Recommend! 3 tier cake I had for my wedding was the bomb! All the guests kept going back to get more. Cake tasting was inexpensive and convenient. MarryBeth was awesome to work with!!!
We came to Maribelle Cakery for a tasting and knew immediately we wanted our cupcakes and other dessert made by them. The staff was phenomenal! They were so nice and helpful. The actual desserts are the best things I have ever tasted. I highly recommend ordering some bite size cannolis for your special day. Ours were completely gone by the end of the night. We received many compliments from our friends and family about how delicious dessert was. It was all around a great experience. Thank you Maribelle Cakery!
We ordered the white chocolate cake with mocha raspberry filling for our wedding. It was delicious!! Moist and rich but not overly sweet. Maribelle's was super easy to work with and flexible. Definitely recommend!
My husband and I tried many different cake vendors, and our first (and BEST) tasting was Maribelle! From our first visit to the shop, the team went above and beyond to give us the best tasting. So many different flavors and combinations were presented - we were instantly hooked! All the planning, even during COVID, went very well and we loved working with Mary Beth to finalize all the details. The cake was absolutely delicious, and our guests raved about it. HIGHLY recommend Maribelle if you are looking for a cake vendor. You will not be disappointed! Cannot wait to order our one year anniversary cake!
Maribelle was highly unorganized prior to our day and left me wondering if everything would turn out right on our wedding day. However, the cake did turn out as planned and was delicious!! Family members complimented it highly after the event! Finally, Maribelle had the best cake tasting out of all of the places we did tastings! The lady at the tasting was very friendly and they were able to accommodate my gluten free diet :)
Omg, where to start!!! When choosing a Cakery, I was looking for a place that could make beautiful and ornately designed cakes. We wanted to know that the place we chose, could WOW our family and friend with their amazing flavors and Maribelle has done just that!!! We had our first meeting and we were blown away at how great the clientele service was but even more by how the cakes tasted. We were able to mix up and match the different flavors, I’m doing so creating a cake for our particular tastes! The greatest part was that we were torn on cake flavors we didn’t have to settle for just the one, we could have as many flavors for as many tries we wanted!! They take your vision of how you want your cake and will brilliantly execute, I had a vision and knew what I wanted. So I drew it out, asked if it was manageable and they delivered!! We loved our cake in every way, all of our guest have asked where it’s from and how to get it. Maribelle, You have two new forever customers, thank you!
We hired Maribelle Cakery for our wedding last November, and I could not have been happier! I gave a picture of what I wanted my cake to look like, and honestly, the cake exceeded all expectations. It was absolutely stunning and we received so many compliments from our guests. Maribelle’s staff are extremely friendly and super easy to work with, and I would highly recommend them to any couple needing a wedding cake!
Maribelle did an AMAZING job with our cake. It was so beautiful, and so delicious. It was everything I could have ever wanted in my wedding cake. Working with them was extremely easy and they customized to exactly what I wanted. I gave them a few ideas and they ran with it. It was the finishing touch to our winter wonderland wedding. I highly recommend Maribelle!
Not only was our daughter n son in law’s cake amazingly beautiful (wish I knew how to upload the pictures of it) but it was by far the best tasting cake we have ever had! We received so many compliments from our guests as well! We loved the flavor we chose so much (Diva) (white chocolate madagascar vanilla bean opera cream filling) that we have ordered twice already for special occasions! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!
Maribelle is the best wedding cakery in Cincinnati, hands down. I have been using them for a few years now and have always been more than impressed with how their cakes come out so consistently delicious and moist. Their buttercream is something people DREAM about. Do not miss the best cake in Cincinnati, USE MARIBELLE!
I cannot say enough good things about Maribelle Cakery! I truly think I had the dream vendors, and my cakes were one of them! Maribelle made my pinterest dreams come to life with not only one cake but two cakes! We had a 4 tier bridal cake and a grooms cake. The staff at Maribelle worked very closely with me to make sure the cakes were everything I wanted- and they sure were!! Maribelle exceeded all my expectations! The only thing that happened was they forgot to put the raspberry preserve filling in the grooms cake so it ended up being just a white cake- which was still delicious! I have nothing bad to say about Maribelle, I absolutely loved my cakes and can't wait for my anniversary cake next year! Thank you Maribelle for the cakes of my dream! All my guests loved it as did we!
We hired Maribelle Cakery about 2 weeks prior to our wedding because our previous vendor cancelled on us.
They were so amazing to work with! We had some greenery and lemons added to the cake and they worked with my florist to make sure it turned out the way that I wanted it to. They nailed it!
The flavors were absolutely amazing and pretty unique. We ended up with an orange flavor for one of the layers! I was disappointed when we didn't have any cake left over because everyone loved it so much! I am excited to order our complimentary anniversary cake from Maribelle! :)
Beautiful and delicious cake! The communication was great and they were patient as I figured out what I wanted for my final design! I loved everything!
We are thrilled with how our wedding cake turned out!! They did our cake for our wedding on July 13th! Through the process, everyone was so easy to work with and responded very quickly to emails! We told them what we wanted and they made it happen!!!! The cake was DELICIOUS!!!!!
We absolutely loved using Maribelle for our wedding cake. Paige was so easy to communicate and work with. We were able to have multiple flavors for such a great price! Everyone loved the cake, it was delicious!
We were thrilled with how our cake turned out! My husband and I don't really do cake or desserts, and we still loved the taste of the cake. They took our vision for a wedding cake and made it beautiful. Maribelle has so many flavors to choose from; you will have a hard time picking which ones you want in your cake. The cake tasting was a blast, too.
The cupcakes were delicious, and every interaction I had with staff leading up to our wedding reception was very friendly. However, I can’t recommend Maribelle for a large event like a wedding. They were unorganized and sometimes did a poor job of communication. I was thrilled with most of my vendors and left them all glowing reviews online, but for Maribelle I wrote them an email kindly giving feedback on some of the hiccups I experienced with them. I explained that while the cupcakes were wonderful, a bride planning a wedding really is looking for a vendor she will not have to keep checking up on or answering the same questions for multiple times, and will follow through with what they said they will do. It took them a long time to respond to my feedback email. When they finally responded, they tried to argue or make excuses for some of the inconveniences I experienced, while failing to address others. I had not been looking for an argument or even a discount, so this response to my feedback was less than professional. Maribelle Cakery has a lot of potential, but for me was really a poor customer service experience.
Maribelle is amazing! I had so many compliememts on the taste and presentation of our cake! Angela is the sweetest person. She went above and beyond for us. We had the most fun at our tasting and loved eating leftovers the day after the wedding. Highly recommend!
Honestly, it was love at first bite with Maribelle. The tasting really impressed my fiance and I. We are not "icing people" per se so I was super happy about how light and not overly sweet the meringue buttercream was compared to traditional buttercreams. The first flavor we tried at our tasting was the White Chocolate Mocha Raspberry and that's what we went with for our cutting cake. We ordered cupcakes to be displayed for our guests and I as the bride ate 1 of every flavor that night. The wedding diet ended right then and there :) Angela and Paige were great to work with - very responsive, kind, and listened to the design feedback that I gave. I was so excited when I saw my cake table at the wedding - literally jumped up and down and squealed. I will be dreaming about that first anniversary cake for the next year. I can't recommend Maribelle enough to future brides!!
Desserts were delicious. We had many different small desserts. The petite fours and macarons were stunning. People raved about the cupcakes! Plus they can do gluten free. So as the bride I still got to eat some dessert at my wedding!
We got some gluten free and some for all the gluten eaters and it was perfect!
We ordered a wedding cake and cupcakes from Maribelle Cakery for our wedding. The guests absolutely loved everything! Our venue told us that guests never eat all the cake/cupcakes and we had no leftovers at the end of the night, even though we had more than enough cake/cupcakes for all of our guests. Everyone raved about the cake and cupcakes. The staff at Maribelle was personable and easy to work with. They met with us for a tasting and when we decided to order they met with me to go over details. They delivered the cake/cupcakes to the venue the day of the wedding and it was set up beautifully when we got there for the reception. I cannot say enough good things about Maribelle Cakery!
Maribelle Cakery made us the most beautiful wedding cake – it couldn’t have been better! Scheduling a tasting was hassle free. I live out of town, and Maribelle made it extremely easy to communicate via email and phone regarding the details for our cake. I would also highly recommend if you are gluten free and/or dairy free. Maribelle was able to make just one layer GF/DF for myself while still making the rest of the cake a variety of flavors for my husband and guests. They worked one on one with our florist to add some beautiful live flowers as a cake topper. The flavors were amazing and the decorations were beautiful. We cannot thank Maribelle enough for an amazing wedding cake.
I loved our cake! Maribelle was able to cater to the unique needs of myself and create a cake that I was so proud of. The team did exactly what we wanted and were very polite and nice. Our day was amazing and I am so happy we went with this venue when it came to our cake.
Guests haven't stopped raving about how delicious the cake was! It was great working with Maribelle throughout the whole wedding process - their communication was well timed and even beyond expectations; they responded to my design prompts and questions at all hours of the night.
Great job!
Maribelle went beyond expectations for my special day! They made my imagination come to life and on top of that, the cake tasted so delicious!! Also, they were on time with everything and were way better than the rest of my vendors on my wedding day. Definitely choose these guys for any of your events!
EVERYONE at my wedding reception was asking who made the cake because they never have tasted a cake so good! It was perfect and I plan on going to you guys for every milestone I need to purchase a cake for. Amazing! During the planning process you guys were so helpful and worked so well with us and our constant back and forth emails of questions I sent. You guys definitely accommodate to your customers wants and needs. I have nothing but great things to say about you guys. Thank you so much!
Angela is amazing!! She is so warm and inviting. Our cake was also so beautiful, and even better than we imagined it. Her cake flavors are SO DELICIOUS AND MOIST!! She offers so many varieties, and doesn't charge extra for picking different flavors. Our cake could not have been more perfect, and I will definitely be ordering more cakes from her in the future!
Maribelle Cakery is AMAZING! I took in an inspiration picture and they made my wedding cake look even better than the picture! Plus, their cake is the best I've ever had, we received so many compliments from our guests!
Maribelle Cakery created a delicious cake for our wedding. The cake was not only beautiful but also received many compliments on how great it tasted ! Marribelle Cakery went above and beyond. They worked behind the scenes cordinating with the venue to get the cake delivered on time weeks before the wedding.
On the day of the wedding I never even saw them. I walked into the reception after the ceremony and saw the most perfect cake presented. They came in they set up the cake and arranged silk flowers we provided on the cake. It was great to have one less thing to worry about. You can have complete confidence that they will do a great job. We would definitely recommend Maribelle Cakery!
Maribelle was wonderful to work with and we just loved our cake! We did several tastings, and the variety and quality of flavors that Maribelle offered was unmatched! They also offered for us to come back and pick up a tasting package for other flavors that we were interested in. The cake itself was beautiful, which they design using fresh flowers from our florist, and the guests loved the cake. We loved our taste during the cake cutting, but it was so good that there we only a few slice left at the end of the night! My husband and I are looking forward to ordering our anniversary cake in a year :)
Wow, Angela! Thanks so much for helping make our day so special with your AMAZING cake! All of my guests asked where we got our delicious cake - I swear people went back 4 and 5 times, just to try all of the flavors!
I really appreciate your willingness to work with us on the design and flowers. It turned out gorgeous - exactly what we wanted!
PERFECTION!
Absolutely amazing! They did an amazing job with the decorating of the cake. Don't even get me started about the taste!!!! I did not want to stop eating!!! The cake was absolutely delicious!!!! It was as if it were straight out of a movie, it was so perfect!!! The customer service was remarkable! Always so willing to help and so joyful! They were always willing to answer any questions that I had. I would HIGHLY recommend Maribelle Cakery to anyone!!!
Maribelle's kept in constant contact. The day of the wedding, we had a couple issues with the cake but they came back out and helped fix it. It was a beautiful cake. Delicious too! or at least that was what I was told haha. We also ordered 2 cheesecakes and they were amazing as well.
Wow wow wow. I am not the biggest fan of cake and had thoughts of doing something other than cake for my wedding. Maribelle Cakery was actually the first place we tried out. The lady we did our tasting with was soooooo kind and a lot of fun to work with. She seemed like she loved her job and took pride in what her business does. We tried about 8 different cakes. I have never in my life been so happy to be eating cake. The absolute best I have ever had. It was difficult to pick only 3 flavors. My now husband and I would mention at least three times a month leading up to our wedding how excited we were to eat these cakes again. Maribelle Cakery did a phenomenal job on making the cake look exactly how wanted. It looked soooo beautiful!!! Please please please give the company a try. You will be so happy you did.
We were super excited about the cake and everything we sampled was delicious but our wedding cake had whipped frosting, not buttercream and totally ruined the cake. It was beautiful though but we are pretty disappointed in what we got.
To be honest, I when I started planning my wedding, I thought that the cake was going to be the least exciting part of the process and day. THEN I went for a tasting at Maribelle Cakery and it was THE BEST CAKE I HAVE EVER EATEN (and I've lived in NYC for 10 years and eaten a lot of fancy/famous cakes and cupcakes). My mom and I had to stop ourselves from devouring every sample! Plus, the cakes were stunning. When I showed them pictures of cakes I liked, they understood my taste, and made one inspired by the pictures, but still completely unique. They also helped me surprise my now husband (!) with an adorable Groom's Cake that looked like a golf course! They responded quickly to all of our emails, and made amazing adjustments when our guest list got dramatically shorter after the hurricanes. I'm so excited to order my anniversary cake from them next September!
The cake was beyond amazing! Not only did it look just like we were hoping but it tasting amazing too. Absolutely loved working with them.
Cake was amazing and so delicious.
Maribelle Cakery was great. The owner, Angela, was incredibly easy to work with. My mom and I were on the cake hunt pretty early and after trying another cake place that was recommended to us by another bride, we loved the more personal feel we got at Maribelle. I had seen a lot of Facebook friends I knew from high school rave about them for their own weddings so we checked them out. The cake tasting was divine and after trying the berry compote, I was sold. It's truly delicious if that is your taste. So many of their other flavors were wonderful as well, evidenced by the fact that I couldn't choose which flavors to include because I liked so many! About a month out, we began the design planning process for the cake. There was some confusion and communication issues regarding designs and pricing, but Angela stepped in to be super clear. It didn't really help that my ideas were a little more complicated (I asked for three cakes of different sizes and design to be the centerpiece of my dessert table), but she took charge and delivered on exactly what I wanted, guiding me along the way with professional advice. The day of the wedding, there was an issue with the flowers, including the flowers that were supposed to be on the cake, and she texted me personally to double check that things were running smoothly. When I explained the issue, she asked if she could help and offered to pick up the cake flowers. The offer alone was above and beyond what I expected, and in the moment of stress I was experiencing, it was incredibly touching. Guests at my wedding talked about how delicious the cake was – I wish I got more of it! However, I did get a small slice nearly a week later after the honeymoon, and it was still good! My cousin had also hired them for her wedding that was about a month before mine, and I had a piece there – I couldn't wait to try my own! I would recommend them to anyone and will happily return for future cakes.
This company was the best company I could have chosen to provide the cake for my wedding. The communication between the owner(s) and myself (as I live four hours away) was exceptional. They were immediate to get back to all of my emails and answered any questions/concerns/changes that I had. The tasting was delicious, and they made my dream "naked cake" that I wanted. It was absolutely delicious!! We had a four tier cake all with different flavors and I wish I had some left over, but clearly our guests loved it too! I would recommend this company 10/10.
I received countless compliments on my cake because it tasted so great. I was also pleased with how beautiful it was and the excellent service I received. Very happy with my experience.
I'm so happy that we used Maribelle for our wedding. We had a hard time finding somewhere that also did other desserts besides cake and at a reasonable price. Maribelle had tons of delicious flavors it was hard to choose between them. My husband is not a cake person, so we also had them make up apple pie and everyone raved about it. Our cake was beautiful and they were so easy to work with throughout the whole process.
You will never have a more incredible cake than Maribelle's wedding cake! It was absolutely beautiful and the most delicious cake we've ever had. The customer service is superior to any other vendor out there and the price was very competitive. I would absolutely recommend this vendor over and over!!
Maribelle was amazing. I came in for the original tasting and was able to narrow down my choices and general design. I was give the opportunity to complete through email, but decided to finish the process in person. They offered another full tasting to finalize the 3 flavors for my 4 tier cake (and bakery cakes). We designed each layer of the cake ...including using the lace design from my dress. The cake design was amazing! The cake the day of was hands down the best wedding cake I have ever tasted. It was very fresh and almost melted it my mouth. This experience was fantastic and the cake was even better!!
Maribelle Cakery is the best! We shopped around and did a half dozen tastings. Many places we went would not do the design I wanted or would not let us mix and match cakes/filling. But once we found Maribelle we were finally able to stop the hunt! Their cake is delicious and they are so flexible! They created a paisley design for me and allowed us to have a different flavor combination on each tier. The cake was stunning! It was everything I wanted it to be! I highly recommend Maribelle Cakery!
I can not even explain how amazing my cake was! They created exactly what I asked for and really impressed me! The cake was delicious and so beautiful! Extremely pleased with the customer service. I am happy I chose maribelle I don't gelueve I would have been as satisfied with anyone else
The cake was delicious and looked even better than the inspiration picture I sent in. I would definitely recommend to anyone in the area
We had Maribelle Cakery make 5 different flavor [and icing color] variations for our wedding reception, and every single cupcake was excellent! The whole experience of working with them from the tasting, through planning, delivery and digital communication was easy and thorough.
Maribelle Cakery was amazing! They were wonderful to work with and were so willing to make the several changes that I had asked for. They really listened to what I wanted and had great suggestions to bring my vision to life. I also loved that they sent me sketches of the changes I had requested, it really took the guesswork out of how my cake would look. And, the taste, incredible! Their tasting process was fun and they never pressured us to make a decision right then and there. I highly recommend Maribelle and will definitely go back for more cakes!
Maribelle Cakery was a dream to work with for our wedding last summer. They coordinated with our florist and made everything about the process a dream come true. The Diva cake flavor we chose to serve at the reception was absolutely delicious (people are still saying it is the best cake they have ever had!) We have already ordered the top of our cake once and plan on doing so for every anniversary! Excellent work! Excellent Service!
It was wonderful! Beautiful service, wonderful staff, and delicious cake!
Absolutely loved working with Maribelle. They were very accommodating and provided a wonderful cake that received many compliments. Couldn't have been happier with being referred to use them!
The staff at Maribelle was nice and professional. The cake was so beautifully made just as we discussed and it was delicious. All of our guest loved it. I would recommend anyone here. In fact I have already recommended to several people.
My husband and I tested out 3 or 4 different cake places and Maribelle not only had the best cake.. they also had the best experience for cake tasting and that became very important to us. The tasting was personal, about the cake and our guests and what everyone would like at the end of the day! No one else offered that kind of personal service.. They just said, here is some cake and left the room. They were so accommodating the entire planning planning stage, working with us to figure out our naked cake! We had two flavors and they were both so amazing! Everyone at our wedding couldnt stop talking about how good it was! Thank you so much for helping make our day awesome Maribelle!
Maribelle Cakery is a pleasure to work with. Our wedding cake was beautiful and they accommodated all of my requests. Everyone said it was delicious!
The OJ cake from Maribelle's absolutely blew me away. I'm a cake fiend. I rarely taste a cake I don't like and I went to a lot of tastings and left happy but not blown away. The minute I had Maribelle's I was hooked. I am still getting comments on how beautiful and delicious my cake was!
