Nutmeg Cake Design

d with. Although Nutmeg is a busy bakery we felt very confident through the process that we were in good hands and that was spot on. We had a Friday the 13th wedding and shared our vision of a dark/moody wedding cake and Meg turned our vision to life exactly how we imagined it. The cake was aesthetically beautiful and delicious. Our guests were blown away by the craftsmanship and taste. We cut into our dream cake and could not have asked for anything more on our special day.

e stand, they even gave me some additional cake they had on hand. After not getting to eat it at the wedding, it was a wonderful treat for later. Such a warm & talented team that will make it happen for you. Thanks, Nutmeg <3

ng box when we were in town, fly home with it, and do our tasting in Miami. Communication, delivery, etc. was all great!

as a beautiful centerpiece of artwork at our wedding! We loved this part of our wedding planning and our wedding. Would definitely recommend!

ake with orange honey buttercream & orange meringue & of course some dark chocolate drizzle. Meg at Nutmeg is quick to respond to emails. The team is easy to work with & they take a lot of stress off your shoulders. They are true talented artists. Try out Nutmeg you won’t be disappointed! I will be using Nutmeg again in the future!

is that I couldn't order every flavor, it's that good.

cake and we are so happy we did. The cakery offers a few cake tastings per year and they are worth every penny. Come hungry, though! The slices are large and in charge and packed with flavor and moist as can be. While many flavor pairings are offered, you have the option to choose whatever combo you’d like. The process itself was very easy and Meg was very accommodating and helpful along the way. The cake shops even give the option to prepackage an anniversary cake which we loved for the convenience. It’s no shock that everyone raved about our cake(s). We chose the chocolate cake with cherry buttercream and chocolate chunk and bourbon cherries. If you’ve ever tried a chocolate covered cherry, you will LOVE this combo. For our backstage cake we chose a more classic combo: vanilla chocolate chunk with chocolate ganache. Equally as delicious and perfect for those guests who have a simpler palette. Thank you so much, Nutmeg, for helping make our wedding day perfect!! We can’t wait to return for more cakes in the future.

flavors. The flavors were spice cake with apple compote and vanilla buttercream, pistachio cake with vanilla buttercream, and orange olive oil cake with Nutella buttercream. All were amazing! Some of our guest were fighting over sharing different flavors or eating the last bite. I cannot recommend Nutmeg enough. She also did my bridal shower cake (lemon cake, lemon curd filling, vanilla buttercream). We ordered twice as many slices as guests and there was not a single piece left at the end of the event because so many people ate seconds or took a piece home with them! The restaurant staff also said it was the best looking, most consistent crumb they’ve ever seen. *I will add professional pictures when I receive them

d not recommend them highly enough!

ith her was such a special experience. She took the time to get to know us as a couple, to understand our likes / dislikes, vision, define what cake flavor combinations best represented us and ensure alignment with the overall design aesthetic of the wedding + venue throughout the entire process. I’d be remiss if I didn’t mention that the cake tasting process was equally as magical. Nutmeg has mastered their cake tasting presentation and Meg sends her couples home with a package of individually curated vignettes of their most delicious cake / buttercream creations along with the latest issue of Philadelphia Wedding Magazine. Let me tell you that this was some of the most fun my husband and I had throughout our entire wedding planning process! It was packaged so well that we were able to taste test at home and then rewrap our tastings, cross state lines and include our parents in the cake tasting fun as well! We worked with Meg through multiple wedding postponements due to the covid pandemic and she handled each amendment with poise and utmost professionalism. We also worked with Meg to create a custom stencil for our wedding cake design and through each step of the process Meg ensured that all of our questions, concerns and minds were at ease. On the day of our wedding, some of the best compliments we received were in regards to how scrumptious our wedding cake flavors were! Both my husband and I cannot wait to rip through our 1-year anniversary cake which is patiently waiting to be devoured in our freezer! Final point: throughout it all, Meg delivered - simply put. (As you can see through the wedding day photos)! If you are contemplating wedding cake designers - stop it. Make the decision to contract Nutmeg Cake Designs. Your family, friends and even wedding photographer will thank you. But most importantly YOU and your partner will walk away so happy you’ve made the right decision!

recommend!

the super fun tasting. You want your cake to be beautiful, sometimes that sacrifices the taste but not these, perfect flavor and moisture. Their process is streamlined which is very much appreciated. Meg was always helpful with any questions and brainstorming. I would absolutely recommend to anyone to hire for their special event. The wedding cake food tasting was a real treat!! Thank you Meg and team!!

ppy we had Meg as part of our day. Meg was extremely easy to work with, and made the process so fun. Our tasting day was a day I will never forget, every single flavor was beyond delicious, and it was so hard to choose! We ended up going with orange olive oil and honey merengue buttercream, and it was even more delicious on our wedding day. We had so many compliments on how amazing it tasted, and it looked just as great as it tasted! Meg truly nailed the vision I was going for, just based off pictures alone. Pictures of her cakes really do not to justice to how amazing they turn out in real life! I'm not-so-secretly trying to stop myself from diving into our leftover cake for breakfast, lunch and dinner! Thank you Meg/Nutmeg for being so incredible!

!) and she and her team truly went above and beyond my wildest dreams!!! I wanted a cake that was dramatic and memorable, and gave her some general ideas and let her work her magic. If you're looking for works of art (in addition to DELICIOUS cake!), Nutmeg is the vendor for you. Meg designed the most jaw-dropping cakes (yes, plural!) for our wedding, that I literally cried when I saw them. Guests were talking about how beautiful and delicious they were all night! Meg is organized, communicative, and an amazing person. She was genuinely excited for us and worked to make our big day special. You can tell she and her team absolutely love what they do. Stop what you're doing and book Nutmeg for your wedding cake!!!

was it gorgeous, it tasted amazing! Wedding cakes are never this delicious! The cake tasting experience was also one of a kind and very intimate. I loved being able to be home with my partner and taste the cakes on our own time. Wonderful experience working with nutmeg! Will definitely be using them for future events :)

cake tasting from home, and the prices were reasonable.

to provide her professional opinon, but really wanted her what we were looking for design-wise so they could make it come to life. Their at-home cake tasting is so simple, fun, and delicious! We would recommended NutMeg to anyone -- you will not regret it. We can't wait to eat the rest of our cake tier on our anniversary later this year!

We loved that we could mix and match the cake and icing options and design elements to create something that felt true to us in desert form. We ordered an earl grey cake with honey butter cream for our cutting cake along with mini cupcakes in chocolate cake with raspberry buttercream and champagne cake with passion fruit butter cream. In a planning year that had a lot of twists and turns (guest count, covid considerations, design changes etc), Meg was a team player and easy to work with. Looking forward to ordering from Meg and her team to celebrate our first anniversary (Sep 2022).

y)! It was unlike any other wedding cake we have tasted before. The delivery and set up was effortless and they even arranged for us to have a little tier to freeze for our anniversary with the date of our wedding iced on top. The cake was decorated to perfection. Thank you so much Nutmeg!!

and made the entire process a breeze. A few months out from our wedding, we decided to change the look of our cake and opt for a more fun palette and even though Meg had already drawn up the original design, she was more than happy to change to our new look. She is so helpful in explaining all of the different options and combinations and is great with offering her professional opinion when you're not sure which to chose! Our cake came out absolutely beautiful - better than anything I ever could have imagined. Our guests loved it and we cannot wait to eat our anniversary tier. Very high chance it doesn't make it a full year ;). I cannot recommend Meg and her team enough. We were so lucky to work with her!!!!

tradition and got a bunch of mini cupcakes for our guests. They loved that they could try the different flavors of each of the cupcakes we chose. Lastly, Nutmeg did our favors for the end of the night … macarons in sweet little boxes — 3 different flavors and they were so yummy!!!!

ney buttercream. I cannot express just how DELICIOUS AND BEAUTIFUL my cake was. Meg was amazing to work with and helped come up with an amazing design and color to capture my vision of my moody/fall wedding. I cried when I saw our cake. I cannot recommend Nutmeg enough!

life, making for the most beautiful cake I've ever seen. Not to mention how delicious it was! We are guilty of eating the top layer of our cake already, we couldn't wait for our one year anniversary. :)

sponsive and optimistic. She coordinated a remote tasting event- with over 10 delicious flavor combos. She was able to accommodate our wedding date change, and made the entire process as pain free as possible. We weren't exactly sure what we wanted, so we gave her creative license with some basic parameters for our two (smaller) cakes. She never tried to pressure us into doing anything more/different and we could not be more pleased with how they both turned out. At least three people told us that it was the "best carrot cake that they had ever had".

one local. As a dessert lover and chocoholic I was drawn to all of the delicious flavors she offers. The tasting did not disappoint. Each flavor is true to its name and I was happy to eat all of the samples. When it came to the design of the cake I wanted Meg to draw inspiration from the floral details of my dress. She was so excited and enthusiastic about the creative opportunity and that we really wanted the cake to make a statement. She went above and beyond with the final product and on the day of my wedding I was truly blown away with how she was able to capture the details of my dress in the design of the cake. I would highly recommend Nutmeg Cake Design for their delicious and beautiful cakes and baked goods.

ed! We also had an awesome time with the at home cake tasting box and it was so hard to choose from all of the wonderful flavors. We can't wait to order from her again for future special occasions!

ely well coordinated, the design was impeccable! It was so easy to communicate with them to get what we wanted. She makes it so easy. The cake on the wedding day was absolutely phenomenal. The appearance was beautiful, and the taste was out of this world. All of our guests thought it was beautiful, and thought it tasted great as well! Even the tasting was so well done (in the height of covid, we got a to-go box that was extremely well presented and well laid out). It couldn't have been better!!!

he created my DREAM wedding cake. I still cannot believe how beautiful a cake could be!! We decided to go with chocolate chip & vanilla buttercream. It was the BEST cake I’ve ever had! Everyone raved about how delicious (& beautiful) it was!! Thank you so much Meg! I am so grateful for you!

and delicious! And we so appreciated all of the vendors who donated their time in support and affirmation of LGBTQ+ couples.

ir covid sample box for tasting conveyed their selection perfectly (and was very yummy)

isions on the cake size and flavors (there are so many amazing options to choose from). We sent Meg a couple of pictures of the kind of cake we were looking for in terms of design and described our ideas and the final product exceeded our expectations. Meg also made us a separate anniversary tier that we froze and we finally had it a couple of weeks ago and although it was in our freezer for a year, it still tasted so good and looked beautiful. I highly recommend working with her on any of your events.

a cake designed by Nutmeg on Instagram and used that as our inspiration. Paid online and that was it! When I arrived to my wedding venue I had to go peek at the cake and I was so happy!! My guests were taking photos of the cake and everyone was talking about how great it tasted. Absolutely recommend! We also love the macarons here- so yummy!

still wanted to have a small cake for our 10 guests. Nutmeg’s textured cake was a beautifully simple and very delicious option. The cake flavors here are so unique. My husband wasn’t sure about the earl grey cake and honeycomb icing we chose, but on our wedding day, he and every one else raved about the flavor! The cake’s decor also withstood the September sun for several hours. The pickup process and all communications were also seamless to boot!

e/blackberry)... ahhhh mouth watering flavors!!!!! Not only was our cake and favors INCREDIBLE on our wedding day, but working with Nutmeg throughout the process was extraordinary. Cake tasting(s) were so fun and special, and designing our cake with Meg was an amazing experience for us. She nailed the design of our cake!!!!!! Highly recommend Nutmeg for your wedding or party!! Don't forget the macaroons (the best we've ever had)!

cake with blue and white textures, and it turned out absolutely beautiful! The payment process was easy too. Highly recommend!

unique and absolutely delicious. We went with an earl grey cake and it was just phenomenal. We also had a groom's cake that was banana cake with cinnamon buttercream, a flavor combination that Meg had recommended, and it was spectacular. Our cake tasted fantastic and it looked incredible. Meg created the most gorgeous design for us based on my super vague and varied taste in cakes. She came up with three gorgeous and unique designs for us to choose from and the one we went with us even more beautiful in person. Communicating with Meg throughout the process was so easy. She also worked with our venue to make sure the groom's cake stayed a surprise and had an anniversary tier for us that was already packaged and ready to go. We didn't have to worry about a single thing on our wedding day. We can't recommend Meg and Nutmeg enough!

iful works of art! I loved the simple, rustic elegance of the design we came up with, and I got so many compliments on the light summery flavor. My husband just about hates all cake, but this one we agreed on and he loved it! I can't wait to use Nutmeg again for all the other celebrations in our life :)

ers packaged up beautifully for Grandma! Meg worked with us through multiple iterations of design and tastings for our cupcakes and small but beautiful 2 layer cake. We never felt pressure to "go bigger" than we really needed. The desserts looked beautiful and tasted even better and had such creative and fun flavors... champagne, nutella, and speculoos cakes were the real stars of our wedding! Meg was wonderful with the amount of ease of both communication and contracting. We can't wait to find another reason to celebrate so we can work with Nutmeg again!

special. We will forever order cakes from Nutmeg!

ptions, cake decor, and the delivery process. She was very accommodating when we ordered additional cake samples and we not only got more than we almost knew what to do with, she explained how to store them so we could share them with family and friends, which helped in the (tough) decision-making process. We ordered a three-tiered cake and there were not a lot of leftovers. My great aunt, who lives all of 15 minutes away from the Nutmeg and doesn't eat a lot of sweets, wanted samples of each flavor to go.

in the area and stumbled across her Instagram page which shows such beautiful cakes, cupcakes and other treats. We wondered how something so pretty would taste so we set up a tasting and consultation with her at her shop in Manayunk. She welcomed us on time and had an awesome selection set up for us. While we were eating all of the awesome flavors she had provided, she told us a bit about herself, why she is so passionate about what she does and how it all happens. She was open, fun and genuine with us and we knew that we found the person we wanted to work with. We chose a honey pistachio cake that was an absolute HIT at the wedding and think the intricacies of the cake she made were second to none. If you need a sweet treat for guests, go to Nutmeg and work on your dream design! She rocks and was so awesome to work with.

ke was not only tasty, and nailed all of the flavor notes but it looked far better than we could have imagined. It was almost too nice looking to eat, but that didn't stop my wife from pushing some of it on my face. I would highly recommend using Nutmeg to anyone in need of a wedding cake.

he also advised us on getting the appropriate stand and ended up renting one from Nutmeg, which was way sturdier than the one we got off of Amazon. Would definitely work with them again!

-time and exactly as I had envisioned. We heard rave reviews from our guests and were very happy with our experience from start to finish.

helped us pick a flavor that would be perfect. I was honest up front and let her know that I’m extrememly picky about cake because most of the time I don’t like it, well her cake is AMAZING, by far the best of any cake I’ve ever had. We had some left over and I ate it everyday that I had it. You 100% should choose Nutmeg Cake Design for your wedding!
