Metro Custom Cakes

Metro Custom Cakes went above and beyond to make the wedding cake beautiful and delicious. I really didnt know what I wanted, but they made it just perfect. All of the guests said it tasted amazing too. The grooms cake was by far the coolest grooms cake ever. It was a very specific design and they executed it perfectly. Compared to other bakers we met with, you get way more for your money with Metro.

Cake for our wedding was gorgeous and exactly what what we asked for. There was no cake left at the end of the night and everyone went back for extra pieces to try the different flavors we picked out. Easy to work with and very friendly. They were also cheaper than most of the cake vendors we compared them to.

So delicious! Recommended by several other bride friends...they did not disappoint!

The cakes were amazing. The "Cinderella" cake was over the top in design and taste. We still have some left andd it is still as moist as it was on the wedding day. Although I am not a Georgia fan...UGA looked like he could have jumped of the table, so realistic, bobble head and all. You certainly made one bride very happy. Thank you.

The taste testing was fabulous - lots of varieties to chose from.

Metro Custom Cakes was highly recommended by most of the vendor we used for our wedding. We were not disappointed. The cake we selected was absolutely beautiful and tasted just as good as it looked. The wedding was a destination wedding and Trisha was flexible on working with us on the few days we were in Jacksonville to do the tastings. The rates are very competitive. I would highly recommend Metro Custom Cakes.

Metro Custom Cakes was AMAZING! Both of our cakes were beautiful and very reasonably priced. We changed the details a couple of times from the first meeting, and they worked with us on that. I HIGHLY recommend them!!!

If you are looking for a wedding cake then these are the people you want to go with. I have reccomended them to all my friends getting married and it was an easy sell since they got to try my cake at the wedding. It was exactly what I described and it was stunning. The cake was absolutely delicious! Thank you Metro Custom Cakes for making my day extra special.

I STILL have people telling me how delicious both the cakes were (wedding cake and grooms cake). My husband got a small taste of each when we cut the cake but then no more! People were asking for seconds at the wedding and the little that was left over from the wedding was eaten by my family before we returned from the honeymoon. Thank goodness we still have the top tier that we will be able to eat on our 1st anniversary!

Also, I can't say enough nice things about Trish. She was the first cake vendor I met with and I came in there with a picture of my dress and told her I wanted to cake to reflect the dress. She was very excited about the idea and even made a mockup for me. None of the other vendors were nearly as enthusiastic about the idea (and their cake wasn't nearly as good, either!).

Thanks Trisha and Steve. Everyone is still talking about the cake! Not only was it beautiful, but delightful too! Thanks!

I was very happy with Metro Cakes. During the planning process, we were able to provide pictures and communicate via e-mail on how we wanted our cake. They were very responsive to e-mail and was able to meet our request to add a fountain to go along with our beach theme! When I arrived to the reception I was so proud at how beautiful our cake was with the fountain! Even more importantly, the cake was delicious! I am very picky and have to say I was extremely pleased with how the cake looked and tasted. I would definitely recommend Metro Cakes!

What can I say? Metro Cakes rock!!! The consultation was so fun and Todd and I were impressed that they made a mock up right there! We were confident in how the cake would look and taste. On top of that, they agreed to delivery the cake mid-reception which was fabulous!!! We ended up having fewer guests and still the cake was almost gone! Five stars!

Metro Custom Cakes made a custom groom's cake in the shape of a golf ball on a tee for my husband. Awesome!!!! My cake was goreous as well. The cakes were delicious and all my guests agreed. I couldn't be more happy with my choice of cakes.

The moistest cake I have ever had in my entire life! It was soooo yummy! The cake was perfect! I mean perfect! It didn't even look real! We had Lemon swirl with raspberry filling... YUMMY, Strawberry swirl with strawberry filling... YUMMY! But our White Chocolate Cake with Bravarian Cream... OMG UBER YUMMY! I will hire them for all my future cakes!

We decided to go with cupcakes as our wedding cake. When we first meet with Metro we were expecting about 120 guests. This fell drastically to 80 guests. They were able to create a new cupcake stand with all my colors 2 days before the wedding. I am so glad we choose them!

This would be a definite recommendation for me. Their cake is probably the most delicious cake I've ever tasted, the prices are fantastic for the quality cake you get and they are a real pleasure to work with. Because of their hours, they can be tough to reach sometimes, but well worth it. Everything else overshadows that. They are a top favorite of our vendors.

Absolutely loved the cake and the design! The husband and wife duo were great to work with! My fiance and I hit it off with them at our initial meeting and couldn't have been happier with the outcome! Great cake, great design and a great price! Would pick them again and I look forward to using them again for other functions!

After a long and arduous process of finding the right cake designer for our event, I came across Metro Customer Cakes online in Jacksonville. I wanted a Star Wars themed cake for our Groom's Cake and there in front of me was the perfect replica of the Millennium Falcon on their website! I hired them based on that cake alone. If they could make that, they could do anything. Well, Trish and Co. did not disappoint! Not only was Trish and her hubby friendly, but their cake was delicious and we were in love at first bite! Getting closer to the big day, I felt like they had everything handled and I did not worry about their part at all. I had worked with Trish via email regarding my vision for the Wedding Cake and she took care of everything, The prices were OH so affordable for such beautiful and tasty work, I wanted to shout it from the rooftops! The finished wedding cake was everything I had dreamed it would be and more. The Millennium Falcon Groom's Cake was the HIT of the reception and all of the guys were so jealous that their wives didn't get THEM a Star Wars groom's cake! I even had a video presentation before the cake was brought out and he felt like a million bucks. We could not have been happier and cannot wait to eat our cake top on our One Year Anniversary. Everyone raved about the cakes and they were the centerpiece of our evening. Thank you Trish! I only wish you were closer to Tampa so I could hire you more often! Seriously, Metro is the cream of the crop and they do not disappoint. I love this place! Thank so for helping to make our special day even more special with your amazing cakes.

The cake was the most important vendor for my husband who travels alot for work and had little time to devote to it. With one, 35 minute visit to Metro Custom Cakes and get all the informatin to choose our cake right then and there. We were able to taste all the flavors of cakes available to choose one for each of our layers, which they were more then willing to accomodate to please my husand. And I was able to choose the exact decor I was most concerned about and all of our dreams came true at such a reasonable price I was surprised. Especially considering the other weddings for my friends that I was a part of and hearing their nightmare cake stories for exorbinate prices. Metro even added a one year anniversary slice of cake to our contract so we could serve our top layer if needed. These bakers are more than willing to help every step of the way.

The staff at Metro Custom Cakes were spectacular! The taste, appearance, price and ability to be flexible to any occation was beyond words. I cannot praise enough what a pleasure it was to find such a professional, personable and kind group of people as we did with Metro Custom Cakes. I will definetly use them over and over for all my upcoming occations and will recommed them to everyone I know.
Awesome Job!

Thank you so very much for making my daughters day with the cake that was so tasty that there was nothing left to bring home!! Great flavor, great work!

Thank you Metro Custom Cakes! Our wedding cake was delicious. The design of the cake was gorgeous. Outstanding job! We will recommend you to everyone!

They were amazing to work with. Many of my guests said it was the best wedding cake they had ever had. So moist and it turned out beautiful!

As a nervous father worried about a perfect wedding for my baby girl, Metro Cakes provided us with the most wonderful cake design that was absolutely the centerpiece of the reception. They offer so many variations of flavors and cake styles that I would never imagine existed. From the first appointment to the last bite of cake, it was a very pleasurable experience.

They were sooo wonderful and so easy to work with! I had a few things I liked that I saw on different cakes, and they helped me work it into one cake so beautifully!! I also had such a difficult color to match, one of my wedding colors was Davids Bridal's Jade. A stunning color but very hard to match, Metro Custom Cakes had no problem with working my color into the cake!! They did such a fantastic job, not only did it look gorgeous it was SO delicious! I had everyone asking me about the cake and it was one of my favorite things about my wedding! THANK YOU METRO CAKES!

My cake was beautiful and delicious!!

So FREAKING good! Metro made my husband a CHAINSAW cake from a picture I showed them and it did not disappoint! He was so surprised because it looked so real! I highly recommend this cake shop!

I am not a cake person, whenever I'm at a party that involves a cake I usually pass. The part of the wedding planning was not a highlight for me. My main concern was how the cake look, I really left the taste of the cake up to my husband (he love deserts). The cake consultation was the beginning to the end of me not liking cake (at least Metro Custom Cakes). The cake was to die for!!!! I was very pleased with array of choices as well as the with the options of cake design. Ms. Trish was very professional; she paid attention to our needs and made sure that our day involved a perfect cake from Metro Custom Cakes. I heard (after the wedding of course) there was a minor snag on my wedding day with getting the cake to the venue. I don't know what magic wond was waved but the cake was delivered without me being the wiser. The cake was perfect just like I hoped. My husband and I can't wait until our 1st Anniversarty to dig into our cake. Great job.

Cake was great, delivery was not....be sure to be clear a million times about your wedding date!


What I was told from my wedding planner was that the cake was delivered the previous day, (the wrong date!). And I do appreciate the vendor making it up and bringing the correct cake at 9pm, in the middle of my reception. My feedback was simply for brides to be clear about delivery date/time so that the stress of showing up to your reception and not having a cake doesn't happen to them.

For my daughters wedding cake I had a perfect experience working with Trisha at Metro Custom Cakes. She was extremely accommodating, professional and so very easy to work with. She was ALWAYS available in returning emails, phone calls etc. (which is such a fabulous touch when planning a wedding). She is sooo creative and aims to please I enjoyed working with her and would recommend her 100%. Thank you Trisha.

First of all, I have to start out by saying I do not eat cake. But...Metro Custom Cakes have the most amazing tasting cake I have ever had. We decided on the White Chocolate with Black Raspberry filling and a Almond with Raspberry filling. I wish, as most Brides do, that I had more time to enjoy some of the cake. Trish is great to work with!

Thank you to Metro Custom Cakes for there profesionalism, flexibility and amazing skill. They were wonderful to work with and helped me find the perfect wedding cake design for my wedding. The Grooms cake - a Death Star - was amazing and stole the show :) Everyone raved not only about the look, but the taste of the cake! Thank you so much... it was exactly what I had envisioned!

Metro Custom Cakes is awesome! Their cakes not only look amazing but they taste just as good as well! No box or artificial taste here! They just did my wedding cake and it turned out better than I expected. They made sure every detail and color was correct and even researched and got specific cake stands for my design. I would totally recommend them to any bride looking for someone to do their wedding cake. Their prices are extremely reasonable and the quality is unmatchable.

My daughter's wedding cake was beautiful, and exactly what she had described toTrisha @ Metro Custom Cakes. It was 4 tiers 2 being quilted, and being demask, so exquisite. The grooms cake was a 3 -D tiger shark, that look almost real. The flavors that we choose for these cakes were delicious. I had shopped several cake vendors, before finding Metro Custom Cakes, their pricing was the reasonable, their service was immediate, and both Trisha and Steve are a pleasure to work with. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for experts on cakes, because they surely are. I thank them from my heart for a beautiful job on my daughters wedding cakes.

In my opinion, Metro Custom Cakes makes the best tasting cakes in Jacksonville! My family has ordered from them on numerous special occasions, including my wedding, and each time we were never disappointed. Their cakes are very moist, decadent, beautiful and delicious. They are the best of both worlds, offering amazing custom designs and flavors. To future brides: You would be very pleased with your wedding cake if you choose this venue.

I can't say enough about how great of a job Metro Cakes did on our wedding cake. I have received so many comments from guests on the taste and look of the cake. I still can't get over how smooth the buttercream was!!!! The customer service was exceptional too. They worked with me and helped design a cake stand to my liking. It all exceeded my expectations and we will be using them again for anything in the future. We HIGHLY suggest Metro Cakes.

My wedding cake was beautiful and delicious! My guests raved about how the cake tasted as great as it looked. The groom's cake was such a hit, and both cakes exceeded our expectations. Trish & Steve were so easy to work with and were willing to work with our budget.

We had a wonderful experience using Metro Custom Cakes! From the time my family and I tasted cake a small piece at a Bridal Show until our actual wedding day we were pleased. Our wedding guests are still talking about both cakes (wedding and groom's), not only was a decoration excellent but the taste was phenomenal! On the metro website our cakes were the "Chandra" and the "Replica of groom's car working headlights & tailights." My groom was so impressed, that he didn't even want to cut his cake. I have used Metro for several events after our wedding and they always offer their very best work. Jacksonville if you are looking for the best Bakery you have found it at Metro!

Thanks Team Metro,
Chandra and Richard Collier

I would definitely recommend Metro Cakes to any future bride. The cake was VERY tasteful! I was especially impressed by the personal service and friendliness of their company. Delivery and set up of the cake was a very smooth process. Wonderful company to do business with!!

Metro Custom Cakes did an awesome job on my cake for my wedding June 13th! My fiance, mother, wedding coordinator and I went to a cake tasting with Trish and Steve, and they were so accommodating and willing to get every detail you wanted or needed for your cake. The taste of the cake was awesome and i am still hearing reviews from guests. I had not seen the cake until it was time to cut, and i was FLOORED at how BEAUTIFUL our cake was!! They had even added flowers around the bottom and it took my breath away that i didnt even want to cut into it! I would definitely recommend Metro Custom Cakes to other brides looking for quality with an affordable price.

Metro Custom Cakes provided us with the perfect wedding and grooms cakes for our reception. At the tasting, they put together so many combinations for us to try – all so equally good it was hard to choose! We ended up with four different cake and filling flavor combinations and loved each one of them. Our guests raved about how good it was (particularly the almond cake with strawberry filling). The cakes were expertly decorated and fit perfectly with our light-hearted theme. Our UF football helmet grooms cake was a huge hit!

From the first time I met with the owners at Metro, I loved them. Their cakes were amazing, both taste and aesthetically. They were extremely patient in helping us pick out flavors. They called the week before the wedding to check in and go over details. They delivered on time and everyone raved about the cake-- it looked exactly as I had requested and tasted wonderful! I was so glad we found a local business who was competitive with Publix price wise, and exceeded all my expectations!!

They were so easy to work with the cake was beautiful and tasted great!!! Thank you!

I cannot say enough about the staff at Metro Custom Cakes in Jacksonville, Florida. When my fiance and I made our first appointment we were asked if we had any special requests, flavors, etc. We honestly had no idea, so Trisha made a selection of cake flavors and fillings for us to sample, and we were in heaven!! It was so hard finding which combination we loved the most, so we ended up picking 3 different combos for our 3 tier cake, our most favorite was the chocolate cake with raspberry filling!! Yummy! Through the course of our wedding planning I was in constant contact with the staff, and once it got close to the date we had a final appointment to finalize the design of the cake. They were very open to what we wanted and even sugguested ideas based on what we like. The best I believe is the most amazing job they did on our surprise groom's cake, a replica of my fiance's firefighter helmet!!! It was awesome, all our family and friends (most of whom share that profession) were amazed at how detailed it was. Great job Metro Custom Cakes. I loved their service and staff so much i recommended them to my two best friends who got married after me, and they both chose Metro to make their wedding and groom's cakes as well. Professoinal, friendly, and very talanted!!!!

I simply can't say enough about Metro Custom Cakes and it's staff. During my quest for the "perfect" wedding cake- I visited other local shops and I have to say only at Metro Custom Cakes did I feel like I had found what I was looking for. From that very first meeting, my expectations were met. I found proffessionals who were willing to work with me and guide me in order to have my perfect cake. On my big day- when I saw my cake I have to say I was just amzed by it. It looked BEAUTIFUL!!! Even my husband whom rarely takes notice of anything was wowed! The cake wasn't only beautiful on the outside but OMG it was ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS!!!!!Every one truly loved it! We had guests who normally don't like cake...like my mom and they actually just loved it! everything about our cake...was just amazing! I just can't stop raving about it! i'll tell you this much I higly recommend Metro Custom Cakes! i am actually planning a special birthday for my husband and I have every intention of using Metro Custom cakes for all and any special occasion. Thank you soooo much for making my dream wedding cake!

GREAT SERVICE AND BEAUTIFUL WEDDING CAKE

Beautiful cake and it tasted even better! It was a definite crowd pleaser!

My wedding cake was the best part of my reception. I had an outdoor wedding at a relative's house, and Metro Custom Cakes came up with the perfect design for the setting. Not only was it beautiful and exactly what I wanted, but it tasted as good as it looked. My guests are still raving about my wedding cake to this day. I also had them make a groom's cake, and it was unbelievable. It was a surprise for my new husband, and it blew him away.

I was beyond pleased with our cakes from Metro Custom Cakes. They both tasted wonderful. We had comments from so many guest at our wedding on how beautiful the wedding cake was and on how awesome the Gator grooms cake was. Steve and Trisha are a pleasure to work with. We were so pleased with our first experience with Metro Custom cakes that my mom is using them again for my sisters wedding in August.

They were great to work with, offered a fantastic price and created a beautiful cake that our guests are still talking about. Their prices were less expensive then Publix and also included the delivery, cake stand and tasting. The cake turned out more beautiful then we had imagined. They took our vision and made it reality… I highly recommend them. Since we have used them, we know 2 other couples who have used them for their wedding & the cakes turned out equally as beautiful. They do fantastic work!!! (www.metrocustomcakes.com or 904-860-9915)

My FAVORITE part of the whole wedding was my wedding cake from Metro Custom Cakes. I gave Trish a picture of a cake I found online. I told her that was the cake I wanted, but I had to stay within a budget. Trish managed to come in UNDER budget and the cake that showed up on my wedding day was EXACTLY like the one in the picture, which cost hundreds more. I only got a tiny taste of our wedding cake, but our guests raved and I can't wait to have a piece on our first anniversary!

David and I had met with many wedding cake specialits, and though they were all pleasant and eager to make our day as perfect as we wanted it to be, that made the decision to pick the perfect one even harder. That was till we meet Steve &Trisha McMillican's owners of Metro Custom Cakes. With their welcoming demeanor, Trisha's ability to see our vision, Steve's artistic abilites,and their flavor selections, David and I knew that we found our wedding cake and the right team to deliver. The pricing was feasible, the taste and texture was better than any other wedding cake that I have ever tasted before, the possibilities for design were endless, the contract was to the point with no small print or ridiculous fees, and our venue even mentioned how great they were during the delivery and set-up process. Having Metro Custom Cake as part of our wedding was the best decision that we could of made. Not only were they the perfect choice for my wedding, but also my sisters wedding, my sister-inlax/bf's wedding, my mom's 50th birthday bash, my sister's Tinkerbell theme birthady, several of my husband's birthdays where they made 3D Playstaion3 cakes, and now I'm in the process to order a cake for my parents anniversary. There is nothing that the McMillican's can't do. I can honestly say that Metro Custom Cakes is truly beyond five stars, they are Awesome!

Metro Custom Cakes was very professional. I gave them a picture and they recreated the exact cake I wanted on my wedding day. When I walked through the door after being newly married and saw my cake for the first time, I was knocked over in awe on how magnificent it looked. Just Beautiful!! We received SO many compliments on the cake. Not only was it beautifully crafted, it was absolutely DELICIOUS! JOB WELL DONE!

Metro custom cakes was the best wedding cake I've ever had, and I'm a weddng photographer, so I've had A LOT of wedding cake =)
My friends and family are still very impressed with the job they did! My husband and I would highly recommend them to anyone.

Metro Custom Cakes makes the best wedding cake I have ever had. Most wedding cakes just look pretty and are kind of dry and frankly most wedding cakes are gross. I not only have recommended the services of Metro Custom Cakes to several other people I have come into contact with, I recieved several compliments from guests of my wedding on the quality of the cake. Their cakes are moist, fresh, made the night before or the day of you wedding, and look magnificant. I plan to order cakes from them in the future.

I had an amazing experience with Metro Custom Cakes! I walked in with a vision and they turned my vision in to a beautiful wedding cake! The design of my dress was used on the cake along with big black feathers...It was exactly what I wanted! My wedding was centered around this amazing cake! The cake was so good I actually got my shower cake from there as well! I plan on going back for birthday cakes! I would definetly recommend Metro Custom Cakes to any one who wants an amazing cake!!!

I have had the pleasure of photographing (and tasting!) many of the cakes that Metro Custom Cakes have provided for my brides - and they are always nothing less than fabulous! I highly recommend them to every bride I meet with.

Awesome cakes! We often hear guests rave about the cake and they're always going back for a second slice. The designs are always perfect and the cake will melt in your mouth.

I had the privileged of working with Metro Custom Cakes for my wedding. Trisha and her team were very flexible with us as our needs changed and our cakes (yes, I said CAKES) looked amazing and were a huge hit at our wedding reception. Metro Custom Cakes is a preferred vendor of We HAND Made This.

I love Metro Cakes! It is so amazing what they can do with cake and frosting. You must try their peanut butter cup cake, its sinful.

Metro Custom Cakes are the Cake Bosses of Jax!! When I meet with brides and they say to me we need a cake that really rocks...I showed them a picture of a cake they did that was an Audi with headlights and personalized tags!! Their eyes lit up and said WE NEED THEM!!!!

Metro Custom Cakes will take your wildest imagination and bring it to life! Your Wedding is YOUR DAY! Make it want YOU want! Dont be afraid to give them an idea and let them run with it. I had a conversation with Steve about my Wedding Ill have someday. I said I have this thing with Snoopy and would love a Snoopy Cake could you do that? His answer was well ya thats easy but wouldnt you want him driving the Red Baron with moving Propellers!!! I said YESSSSS!!!!!

Love Metro Custom Cakes and recommend them to any bride with any imagination. From classic to crazy ideas, let the Cake Boss handle it!

Beautiful cakes!!! They are works of art!!

Love Metro's cakes. Trish is the best!

I had a privilege working with Metro Custom Cakes on several occasions. Their Wedding Cakes are gorgeous on the outside and absolutely incredible inside! 5 Stars!

Creative cake design, delicious cake and professional service. Metro Cakes is awesome, and when my brides tell me their cake provider is Metro, I know they will be completely satisfied. Rose of Sharon Florist and Metro Cakes have worked together on many ocassions, and we look forward to working with them again. Always delightful (and tasty)!

Beautiful cakes, taste great, friendly service.

Metro Custom Cakes actually made my wedding cake over a year ago and our guests still talk about it! They were so friendly and really listened to our requests.

Trish and Steve at Metro Custom Cakes are wonderful! They are professional as well as being artists which is a rare combination. No request is too big or too small for them. We recommend them to all our customers!

Gorgeous and creative cakes--great staff! Their cakes are AWESOME! I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE their strawberry shortcake cake. And the white chocolate with raspberry--excellent. The samples they give you are NOTHING compared to the real thing. FANTASTIC...

I have photographed several weddings now that featured cakes from Metro Custom Cakes. They are always stunning cakes that get amazing reactions from everyone at the wedding! I refer all my brides to Metro Custom Cakes.

Beautiful cakes. Very moist and delicious. Definitely one of my prefered vendors.

Metro Custom Cakes is on my preferred vendors list. They are very professional and their cakes are fantastic.
