Megateaux emerges in reviews as a creative, high-quality cake shop with a playful DIY cake bar and extensive customization that repeatedly delights customers for birthdays, Valentine’s Day and other celebrations. The cake range includes carrot cake with cream cheese, strawberry vanilla cake, vanilla and passion fruit heart shapes, and chocolate options, with icing described as top notch and textures as light yet rich, rarely too sweet, and many praise the balance of flavors and fresh ingredients. Online ordering is praised for ease and in-person pickup allows early retrieval for events, while the on-site staff are repeatedly called professional, friendly and attentive, even offering workshops and a welcoming atmosphere. While most experiences are positive, a few orders of personalized cakes did not fully meet expectations (for example a themed cake that arrived with simpler decorations), yet the overall sentiment remains that Megateaux delivers creative, high-quality cakes with a strong local community feel and a willingness to accommodate special requests.
I liked the concept & the taste, I recommend to try it once!
Pros:
-Fun & original concept (create your own individual cake).
-The homemade hazelnut praline paste is delicious & crunchy. I bought a container to take home (I just wish it was a little cheaper).
-The cake is not too sweet so you can add the filling without worry.
-Not too expensive for what it is (around $8 for an individual cake).
Others:
-I recommend using the vanilla cake rather than the chocolate cake because you will add cream & filling.
Pour mon anniversaire j'ai choisi le gâteau fruits de la passion. Super bon! Je vais devoir essayer tous les autres. En plus, si vous avez une petite fringale, leur carré au citron offert en portions est spectaculaire tout comme le reste.
Its a cute place! The cakes were quite good & we were able to taste test the icing as well. I think the icing could have been a bit better but overall satisfied with the purchase!
Les gâteaux sont toujours excellents & le service agréable & personnalisé. Mes enfants adorent confectionner leur dessert au bar à gâteau & c'est là qu'on commande les gâteaux de fête., à la fois magnifiques & délicieux

Called in for a last minute request. Staff was helpful & accommodating, but more importantly the chocolate cake for my daughter's birthday was delicious. Love that I was able to support locally too! Excited for our next bday gathering, so I can try something else.
Juste MIAM! Je suis passée un vendredi PM en pensant acheter un gâteau déjà prêt. Il n'y en restait plus, mais on m'en a concocté un en une heure. C'était un gâteau vanille & fruits de la passion. Tout le monde a a-do-ré je pense qu'on a parlé du gâteau 10 minutes lol les gens ont pris en note le nom Mesgâteaux. Un succès, merci!
Tristement le marbré acheté ce matin à 11h, est moisi sur certaines parties (voir photo) & très sec. Mais le petit cake du bar à gâteau était très bon, mais c'est une déception de vendre des choses avec des début de moisissures. Je pense que le concept est très bon, & malgré cette déception j'aime l'originalité de la construction de gâteau personnalisé !

Concept unique de gâteaux à créer sois-même : un délice ! Le praliné maison est à tomber par terre ! De plus, Mégane est adorable. Si vous êtes dans le coin, à tester ABSOLUMENT 🤩
The best!!! The cakes are super moist & sooooo pretty. The little portion of cake in a cup is perfect for a kid portion. The owner was there, she's absolutely lovely & welcoming. Will order all my birthday cakes from there for the foreseeable future!! Congrats on a great new place!
