I've ordered from Morfey's twice now and both times the baker completely hit the ball out of the park.
The first cake was in October of 2023 - a 6" red velvet cake with chocolate mousse filling. 10/10
The second cake (pictured) Februrary of 2025 - I'll start with the rating: 20/10. Five stars. WINNER. Because I was lucky enough to have such an incredible experience my first time around, I told the baker that we weren't picky and I trusted her opinion when it came to flavor combos. Threw out a few flavor suggestions based on what I saw from their website and the rest I was totally open to creative freedom...Now I'm just kicking myself for not having the baker write down the flavors but here is my guess - an almond cake with chocolate mousse or mocha/chocolate frosting with an almond or mocha icing and strawberry jam filling on the inside? Some combo of those flavors for sure! DELICIOUS. Incredible. My boyfriend and I looked at each other STUNNED after our first bite. The cake was SO moist and soft and fluffy and delicious and the frostings were spectacular. All of the flavors were so spot on and paired so well together. Cake design I also left up to the baker - it was simple but spectacular. I am so impressed by the detail, the love, and the richness in all of the flavors. (also a 6" cake). It also held up really well (refrigerated) and stayed fluffy and moist and fresh for a week.
Also the baker (kicking myself x2 because I didn't get her name) was the SWEETEST woman to interact with. Giggly and smiley and so kind and you could tell that she loved her job - she has sweetness to her core and it's such a joy to witness and receive.
I only subtracted a point from "service" because in a digital age I wish they were a little more advanced with an online order form or confirmation. You do have to catch them on the phone in order to place an order and I did have to call in to confirm my cake was ready which gave me a little anxiety. The service interactions were 11/10 easily, but as a website designer/digital marketer, can't help but wish for a slightly upgraded system. Oh well. The cake more than makes up for it!
Size and pricing: On the website the 6" cake says it serves 6-8. I think we easily got 15 slices out of it. I personally feel like no one ever really wants a thick slice of cake anymore and the cake is so rich and delicious you don't need a huge piece to indulge. So it definitely over served and was the perfect size for our group + leftovers. Also the price is unbeatable. $45 even for a custom cake that you can get a bunch of slices out of?? Unheard of and seriously appreciated.
I was rolling my eyes reading the 1 star reviews. I would recommend Morfey's over and over again!

Absolutely scrumptious cake! Transaction was done seamlessly within 72 hours. Great team. Price is right. Cake was fluffy, moist, light. Buttercream was exactly how you hope it will taste. Presentation was beautiful. The team uses a vintage commercial mixer from the 1940’s. It was fun to visit the storefront and see this baby in action! Bravo!

Was a great experience, from planning the cake (I didn’t know what I want), to changing the delivery address at the last second, it was a great experience. 10 out of 10 would order from here again!

This adorable bakery snuck up on me while out for a walk the other day, and boy oh boy was I pleased to run into them! I got one of the Tastiest Cupcakes I've had in my life. I'm way too excited to go back for another bite! Super Cozy atmosphere on top of the grand desserts!

I love celebrating birthdays with Morfey ❤️ Got a vanilla cake with raspberry filling and a Totoro theme and they knocked it out of the park.

Got a custom cake for a work party and it was a hit! Fluffy, light, delicious. Everyone raved about it. Great price, too.
If you are looking for a cake for someone special or just yourself, I recommend you try Morfeys. I have purchased from a handful of other shops in Seattle over the last 5 years and so far, Morfeys Cakes is my favorite. I wanted to surprise my fiancé for his birthday with a white confetti cake that reminded him of his childhood and this cake was so cute. The buttercream was smooth and delicious, without any strong sugary aftertaste. The raspberry buttercream filling was my favorite it was sweet and just a little tart. After we opened the cake, I placed it in a cake container and two days later the cake was still moist and the buttercream tasted fresh. Erin, was just as sweet as the cakes she bakes and was super accommodating. I highly recommend!

DONT ORDER FROM HERE FOR SPECIAL OCCASION - We got the cake for our baby shower. It was one of the most ugliest cake ever. On the phone when we ordered they told us to "trust them" and that is what we got. Clearly shows a lack of skill and professionalism as the pictures on the website are miles apart from what we got. If anyone is considering ordering cake from here, save your money and instead get one from wholefoods. Much more reasonably priced and getter looking. You end up paying for a bakery price for a quality worse than a supermarket.

I had our wedding cake made for us at Morfey's Cake, and we were extremely pleased by the experience and result! They're a busy business, so we did give Morfey's ample time when booking our tasting and reserving the cake, and it all went smoothly!We called ahead and made the cake tasting appointment in advance, and had a fun time tasking cake samples (with coffee!) with Erin, and going over designs. We'd looked at Morfey's website and Instagram beforehand so had a good sense of what we wanted. We decided to buy our own cake toppers, but had Morfey's make the sugar flowers for us.Because we were getting married in Seattle and our cake was relatively small, we elected to pick up the cake ourselves and deliver it to save on the delivery fee. Made the reservation, the cake was ready on time, and it was well packaged for travel (it was defintely a 2 person job, even with our smaller cake, so bring someone if you decide to deliver it yourself).And wow, we were overjoyed by how beautiful the cake looked! It impressed our guests and was a beautiful decoration on the day of the wedding. And it tasted so good! It was delicious, flavorful, moist - some of the best cake I've had! We loved it!We're definitely going to use Morfey's for special occasion cakes in the future! Thanks Erin for making our wedding day that much more special!
