    I love this spot so much! It's vegan, mostly nut free and with gluten free options. Choose your…read morecake flavor, icing, and up to 3 toppings for one price. The options are endless and I promise you won't miss the dairy. The cake is incredibly moist and with so many great flavors to choose from Street parking only (paid in 13th st but free on the streets that run perpendicular)

    This flashed up in my social media. It's on Colfax and we were lucky to find a parking spot right…read morein front of the shop. We wanted to go after dinner one night but it closed at 8 so we went mid-day the next day. What's nice for next time is it comes with a lid so easy to grab and eat later if you want to have an after dinner treat. We decided, heck, let's just eat cake for lunch. I love the concept of building your own cupcake cup essentially. Have never heard of this idea so had to try it. They have SO many topping choices that it took us a minute to decide. And lots of good cake flavors. I ended up getting a medium (which I would've been okay to have a mini). I got Funfetti cake (it was delicious). I got strawberry frosting, lemon lavender drizzle, pretzels, and blackberries. You choose the cake, the frosting, and 3 toppings. I also got an oatmeal cream pie. Ok... so if you love cake/cupcakes - this was delicious! I want to go back and try different flavors. The oatmeal cream pie was also SO GOOD! I love this small local business so I'll definitely be back and they do full cakes so great place to also support and order from.

    Overall, the cake tasted good and was light enough for our asian parents to enjoy. Also very easy…read moreto place my order over text. Docking a few stars for the following reasons: - I asked for fresh strawberries and blueberries for the filling, but there was barely any fruit inside... - Cake design was nothing like i had ordered. I actually didn't notice how odd the design was until i got home and put the cake topper on (see photo) Maybe just go with a simple design. Lastly, don't try to pick up your cake earlier than the scheduled time. First time I've experienced a cake not being made earlier than scheduled pickup--I must be spoiled. I came by 2 hrs early (at 11am) when my pickup was at 1. They were still making the cake and said to come by 1. She mentioned they get backed up on weekends and don't have a lot of staff, so I get it. Came by at 2 just to make sure it was done. Just want to call that out; don't come earlier than your scheduled pickup time.

    Called in on a Friday to see if I can get a cake on Saturday night for my birthday party. I ordered…read morethe green tea fruit cake to be picked up after 4 PM on Saturday, and it was perfect! Not too sweet, proportionate cream to bread ratio, and the fruits were fresh. On another occasion, this bakery also did my sister's birthday cake which was requested ahead of time with a specific aesthetic in mind (picture attached, name scribbled out for privacy sake). Again, it was perfect! The inside of the store is pretty typical, has Korean pastries and even offers shaved ice. But as we all know, it's the inside that counts ;)

    Amazing service! We were greeted right away with friendly smile and the store was adorable with…read morelots of labubus for sale too. But we were here for some Vietnamese coffee and dessert after dim sum next door. The Vietnamese coffee was delicious and she can make it hot or iced. We tried 4 different desserts - lychee mousse, passion fruit mousse, basque cheesecake and tiramisu. The basque cheesecake I had was so good! The lychee was a little lacking in flavor, the passion fruit was delicious and so was the tiramisu. Everything was not too sweet and tasted fresh! The coffee had milk but it didn't upset my lactose sensitive tummy. Definitely come check out their desserts! All so tasty!

    Mark did such an amazing job on our "what will it bee?" Gender reveal cake. We received many…read morecompliments on how beautiful the cake was, and then the taste of the cake was amazing...we were eating all the decorations and dazzled by the flavor of each. Mark also made it easy to keep the gender a secret from me. Him and I discussed the cake details, and then I had a friend texted him with the results to make sure it was still a surprise for me. I couldn't be happier with how it turned out (both the cake and the gender!) highly recommend Mark and Meraki Custom Cakes!

    My boyfriend ordered me a birthday cake from Meraki this past weekend and HOLY MOSES it was…read moredelicious. Carrot cake is my favorite so I was thrilled when the cake was cut open. The cake was the perfect level of sweetness and packed with flavor from carrots, walnuts, raisins, and spices (and I'm sure much more). Usually I am not a big fan of layer cakes because of all of the icing but it was just enough, a great consistency, and completely complimented the flavor of the cake. I also loved the simple decorations on the top! A friend of mine picked up the cake and he and my boyfriend said that from start to finish Mark was great to work with. I should note that my boyfriend lives in Austin, TX so it means even more to me that the process went so smoothly. Thanks Meraki! I should also mention that after transportation to a few different locations and 3 days of sitting in my fridge, the cake is still sooo delicious! I took the inside cake picture after all of that too.
