Chris made the beautiful cake for my military retirement ceremony. He was amazing to work with, captured every detail, and made the tastiest cake I have ever eaten. We chose three tiers made of chocolate, lemon, and marble. They were incredibly moist and flavorful. I absolutely cannot wait for the next event so that I can order another cake from Chris. read more

Chris created the cake for my husband's promotion ceremony and it was absolutely delicious! Moist red velvet, that wasn't overly sweet (which it shouldn't be), and cream cheese with vanilla buttercream. This cake was by far the biggest and most important cake we have ever had and Chris just blew our minds! He was so awesome during the planning process and super adaptable with having to deliver the cake to Quantico which required having his van being inspected for base access. All 150 of our guests were so impressed and commented on the cake. I'm sooo happy that Chris helped us make this important day in my husband's career that much more memorable!! read more

What a cake! We threw a 65th birthday party for my partner/husband, for 45 guests, a black and white party motif. Chris made a two tier cake with white fondant exterior, bases of black bands, with a cherry blossom sprig. The cake flavor was Dulce de Leche (Carmel). It was a smash hit, beautifully displayed. All the guests had to know where it came from. It added much to a memorable evening. read more

My experience with Cakes by Chris Furin was fantastic from the moment I submitted my inquiry to the cake being delivered and after it was consumed. Chris was quick to understand the desired outcome and exceeded expectations with the attention to logo, colors, and flavors and delivery. We received lots of compliments on the cake not only in that it was beautiful but also in the flavors (one carrot with cream cheese frosting and one with marble and butter cream - both with buttercream to combine into a single cake). Highly recommend! read more

Chris is both an incredible artist and gentleman. He made the most wonderful cell phone cake - people spent 45 minutes taking pictures with it before we even cut into it... and then, mmmm.... That buttercream! Thank you, Chris, for an unforgettable experience and for being such a delight to work with!!! read more

Good luck with receiving a response to a quote request. I sent two requests through online portal, I called and left a message and sent an email. Never received any response. I guess they weren't interested in my business. read more

I was so nervous of ordering a fondant cake since I've had a very bad experience in the past with a different baker.. However!! Chris did an amazing job!! He made the cake look and taste great. I ordered a customized open boxed chanel cake for my best friend's 21st birthday. It was so beautiful that my friend didn't even want to cut into the cake! But eventually after hundreds of pictures, she finally cut into the cake and it wasn't bad at all! Fondant usually doesn't taste good but Chris' fondant was actually really nicely blended together and fun to eat... We had vanilla cake because my friend doesn't like things too sweet and it turned out just right! The cake was very moist. I had to pick up the cake because we had no idea what we were going to do that day and let me tell you.. The cake was so durable.!! And by that I mean, I drove around all day with it in my trunk and it didn't crack or anything! It was still in one beautiful piece! (I'm not telling you to do this though..) Anyway, if you need a cake that is out of this world, Chris is the guy! Plus, he was really fast, easy and fun to work with. I definitely recommend him for everyone's customized cakes around here in the DMV! read more

I was looking to purchase a cake for our company summer party. I work at a creative production agency so a regular boring sheet cake would have been settling for mediocrity. Now let me tell you, we were in for quite a treat with the cake we purchased from Chris!! I had sent Chris our company logo (which is a small red logo with our tag line in block letters). Very simple. I saw the option for the red velvet cake to compliment our red logo. Chris went above and beyond with just our simple request. He decorated the cake, highlighted all the letters with icing, and color matched all the different shades of red in our company logo. Amazing. For such a simple party our company held at local sports bar, the cake was one of the highlights. Even staff members who would not normally eat cake really enjoyed it! The icing was so delicious and it tasted so fresh. Chris was a pleasure to do business with. He was enthusiastic and eager to please us. Great customer service. Advice for my fellow Washingtonians, check out Cakes by Chris Furin. Especially if you are looking for that WOW factor at your special occasion. Cakes have traditionally been part of any celebration but usually given minimal thought. Take this opportunity to order a custom cake by Chris and I promise you will not be disappointed. read more

As Chris already has so many fantastic reviews, I don't know that another 5-star review is going to do much for his business. But, he did such a phenomenal job for me that I'd hate to miss the opportunity to sing his praises. I asked him for a complex 3D cake with a tough two-day turnaround. Despite an incredibly busy schedule, Chris accommodated my request and exceeded my expectations. Chris is very personable, and takes great pride in making his creation the highlight of any event. Highly recommend! read more

Cakes by Chris Furin?? Are you kidding? The name should be Super, Fabulous, Delicious, Creative, Intelligent, Best-Ever Friendly Furin Cakes! Recently we had Chris do a cake for a going away party for our friends. My wife described the sign language themed idea and he executed it perfectly at a price that could not be beat. He even learned to write Braille in icing for our friend; so smart. This is the second cake that our family has ordered from Chris. At both occasions the cake was the star of the show! To top it all of, Chris is so nice and personable. He actually thanks his clients for allowing him the privilege to make their cake. Yet his professionalism is top-notch. He arrived on time and setup the cake nicely. We highly recommend Chris to anyone who is looking for a theme cake. read more

Chris made an incredible cake to celebrate a book launch. The cake (in the shape of the book) was absolutely beautiful, precisely detailed, perfectly done, and all-around amazing. And when we finished marveling and dug in, I was quite surprised to taste it -- I assumed that to make it beautiful, there would be compromises on flavor, but no -- it was absolutely delicious. (I just had some for breakfast!) Chris does extraordinary work. read more

Chris is amazing! He made me a Cigar Box Cake for my Husband's Birthday and it was very nice. Everyone mentioned not only how great it looked, but also how delicious it was!!!

I'm not going to speak about the quality of the cake because my interaction with Cakes by Chris Furin didn't even make it that far. As for his customer service, TERRIBLE! HORRIBLE! I emailed him for a quote and after some back and forth I guess I asked the wrong question because all I got back was attitude. He'll deny it because in his response to my response (where he called me "extremely sensitive" and a "bully" and claims I "viciously attacked" him, when I was only giving him a taste of his own medicine - umm, dramatic much?!), the attitude and rudeness multiplied. You know those people who like to unnecessarily BOLD certain words in their email to make a point but really it just makes you feel they think you're stupid because that's what they're really thinking? Yeah, that's him. Just unprofessional. I'd rather pay more somewhere else just to get friendlier service. read more

Chris created our dream wedding cake! We absolutely couldn't believe how fresh, light, and perfectly delicious his cake was during our cake tasting. We decided on TWO flavors! Lemon and red-velvet. He designed the three tier square cake just as I dreamed and it was completely devoured by the end of the reception. I am looking for every chance I can to have him design another custom cake, but until then we love ordering his cupcakes! read more

Have known Chris since he was about 13 years old @ the Deli in Georgetown. He is the nicest guy you would want to know. And, does Cakes like no one else does.

Chris is absolutely fabulous! His cakes are so tasty! And his customer service is top notch! He created two cakes for my sons 5th birthday. One Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle cake (special just for my son to cut) and the second a strawberry shortcake sheet cake. The cakes were awesome! I wasn't sure about finding a baker on YELP, but Chris had no problem bringing samples to my office which really stood out to me. I was in contact with a few other bakers who were highly recommended none of which were willing to provide samples and wanted me to trust that their cakes were delicious. Chris was in constant communication with me and helped to narrow down a concept for the cake. On the day of the party he arrived early to deliver the cakes and was very pleasant. All of the guests at the party loved the cake and commented on how moist and delicious it was! I would use him again and would recommend his services! read more
