A Little Something Sweet - Chocolate cake with white chocolate filling! - Desserts Near Me - Lake Forest, California

Predicating my review on the time of my arrival. Five minutes before closing. As the sole customer I asked if they still possessed a cinnamon roll as one was not on display. I was told they would have to retrieve same from the back. The roll I received was not the same size as the other type of pumpkin roll on display. The frosting was a dollop by definition only. Not the same coverage of frosting I observed the OCfind gentleman had declared was the best. Heated per instruction and upon my first bite tasted a stale and nearly bland. The outside portion of the roll was tasteless. The inner portion of the roll contained cinnamon and definitely no sugar that I could taste. The inner portion was an improvement, barely. The frosting amount was so small that three fork fulls in, the frosting was exhausted. It was not sweet at all and it bore a resemblance of simply crème cheese Betty Crocker mix. All in all, not with the hype or worth the trek to the brick and mortar, on a scale of five being the gold standard, I'd give it a four minus. Don't see myself or any of my friends making the sojourn to also be disappointed! Wish I had taken a pic to help with one visualizing the disappointing roll.up to read more

Yeah sorry wasnt good. Ordered a custom cake. Went in twice trying to finalize details with Elizabeth and both times she "was too busy" and contact by email only. She was very nice in the email though. Most of all though was the cake itself is so disappointing. The icing is grainy and disgusting. I got chocolate nutella. And there is absolutely no taste of nutella. Just freaking sweet garnular sugar. The cake itself wasnt even good either. The decor was ok. The purple shade that i asked for was a tiny bit off shade and the bows i brought in to be put on was way too many. This is exactly what i tried to meet with her in person about. And consequently the details were off. If you are not too detailed oriented or too refined on taste this is an on custom cake place. Very basic. read more

I've been here a couple times and regret not coming more. It's only a couple miles away, but in an area I don't normally go to. It's a cute little corner shop set back from the road behind a Starbucks. It's light and bright with many baked options. The service is always super friendly and helpful. I always ask what they recommend or are considered the favorites and they seem to give me items they really like. I'll definitely be back and hope to make it more often. read more

I emailed a ton of places looking for a custom cake for my step daughter's birthday. They emailed back quick, straight to the point, didn't ask a million questions, and with the price. Not only was communication 10 out of 10, the cake was even better than I expected. I literally gasped when I saw it. My step daughter was SO happy when she saw it, and said it is by far her favorite cake she's ever had on her birthday. The cake was delicious, and everyone loved it. I couldn't recommend this place enough. THANK YOU! read more

I AM NOT BEING DRAMATIC WHEN I SAY THIS STICKY BUN CHANGED MY LIFE. Okay, maybe just a LITTLE dramatic, but my god - it is GOOD. I drove nearly an hour round trip for this (thank you, pregnancy cravings) after seeing that this place has a highly acclaimed cinnamon bun, but when I walked in, the pecan sticky bun stole my heart. It is everything you could want and more. Soft, gooey, perfectly sweet, delectably dense, just absolute perfection. I'm bad with names but I believe Ash helped me, and they were also so sweet, too! I wish I lived closer but that probably won't stop me from being back. read more

Elizabeth and her team created our wedding cake for our big day and we had a wonderful experience!

The cake itself was so delicious and we got many compliments on the flavor and how beautiful the cake looked. I highly recommend Elizabeth and her team for your wedding or event! read more

A Little Something Sweet - Desserts Near Me - Lake Forest, California

What a cute shop! Super friendly service, and I love the variety of offerings here. There's even more than baked goods! Cute decor pieces and decoration sets as well as some cards. I asked what was uniquely theirs, and was pointed to the No Cake Left Behind section. They take the extra pieces of cake from baking and layer it with yummy toppings, like you would see in a German chocolate cake. It's very good. I followed their recommendation and waited about 30min for it to come up to room temp. We also tried an almond coconut cookie, pistachio croissant, and 2 macarons (blueberry and watermelon). Everything was very good! The almond coconut cookie and German chocolate No Cake Left Behind were my favorites. Everything here is also very fairly priced. I'm definitely coming back! read more

A little something sweet has been my go-to for years now. This petite bakery hidden in the back of a Starbucks anchored shopping center is no slouch. It is bright and inviting while still feeling homey and full of love! The staff are so sweet and inviting that you can feel the love that goes into their pastries and cakes. They have dozens of treats, quick pick items for parties, cakes, miniature desserts, and my personal favorite, the CINNAMON ROLL!! I have spent years perfecting my own recipe and sampling from every bakery around the country. It is the best cinnamon roll in South Orange County without question. It is gooey, warm, and behind it's light and flaky crust, the vanilla cream cheese frosting gets in between the soft layers pretending to be a mozzarella stick with cinnamon goodness "cheese" pulls that will make your mouth water. The vanilla cream cheese frosting is to die for. Their savory pastries are all made in house. They have gone through a few different versions from their take on the savory toaster strudel to roasted veggie croissants, but they always stand out for their quality and use of fresh ingredients. My wife's obsession is their lemon meringue pie bites. They are sweet, tangy, creamy, and the perfect touch of sour. My daughter's love their "no cake left behind" cake in a cup. A great way to get a rewarding yet not too filling piece of cake for your daily routine. Don't miss this stop when you're in the area. It's 100% worth the trip! read more

A Little Something Sweet - Cinnamon Rolls and Gingersnap Cookies. - Desserts Near Me - Lake Forest, California

Genuinely the best cinnamon roll I've ever had. And I'm a tough critic. Almost every roll I've had gets better the more you get to the center, but this roll from start to finish is seriously incredible. I won't lie, it looks a little deceiving and like it wouldn't be the best but it truly is. The women I've encountered that work there are also so sweet. Love this place read more

First of all: small but mighty! THE BEST cinnamon rolls! Fresh and moist with the perfect amount of cinnamon and icing. Every bite better than the last. They are also easy to get to right on Lake Forest, and just across from Starbucks so my favorite thing is to order my coffee then walk across the parking lot to this hidden gem of a bakery. The ambience is thoroughly delightful and almost quaint - like something you'd find on a Parisienne sidestreet! Also, the women working there are so nice. They always make me feel welcome and appreciated for coming in. There is outdoor seating if you want to hang out and enjoy. Next time you need a little something sweet, take the drive. The toughest part is deciding what to get (but yeah those cinnamon rolls are my fave). Get some tasty treats to take home too. You'll be so glad you did! This is a photo of the plate I licked clean to capture every morsel. Yummmmm! read more

A Little Something Sweet - What's left of my cinnamon roll after I ate every single bit of it! - Desserts Near Me - Lake Forest, California

I brought home one of their Cinnamon Rolls ($5.25) for hubby, who is a big fan of cinnamon rolls; these are superior to other places' typical pastry. After heating these in the microwave for 20 seconds (as instructed), these are moist-&-flavorful with a generous layer of frosting -- and appreciatively not overly sweet! I also enjoyed one of their Hand Pies (Custard was the flavor for that day), $2.95. Our thoughts are their No Cake Left Behind (chocolate cake cup, $5) was the least impressive of the treats we tasted; the cake was nice but the frosting didn't have us desiring more. We enjoyed the Cinnamon Roll (our favorite in this area, to date!) so much that I returned the following morning for more! Friendly, knowledgeable, patient, and efficient service. Fabulous find! Eager to taste more of their treats! read more

Went for the first time yesterday (March 10) and the girl that helped me was so welcoming and nice! Inside the store is cute and clean Parking is easy, it's also next to a Starbucks so you can grab a coffee to go with your sweets. You don't even have to move your car (Same parking lot) I ordered a cinnamon roll and a chocolate croissant... I haven't had the croissant yet, but let's talk about the cinnamon roll.... Omg... soooo good!!! The texture is perfect..not a typical generic cinnamon roll...very fresh and not too sweet. I was supposed to save half for later after dinner but I couldn't stop! MUST go back again!!! Perhaps today read more

Very sweet cookies, chocolate chip, oatmeal chocolate chip, lemon blueberry and snickerdoodles; made to order, chocolate, brownie cake with vanilla frosting all good, not outstanding. The employees were very pleasant and helpful. The owner was brusque bordering on rude, needs to calm down and relax when dealing with customers. Shop includes on site baking, clean and neat with good product display. read more

My husband ordered a birthday cake for me, but to my shock, the bakery handed it to him without any box or cover -- just the bare cake sitting on an open tray. Because there was no packaging, my husband had to place it on the floor of the car and drive very carefully to keep it safe. The lack of a box was not only inconvenient but also raised serious concerns about hygiene. A cake should always come in a proper box or protective packaging. Handing it over this way felt careless and completely unprofessional. For something that is supposed to be a special creation, this was extremely disappointing and absolutely not what I would expect from a bakery. The cake price was $45. read more

I needed a birthday cake for my mother -in-law's 75th birthday. I wanted to go to a local small business and reached out to Elizabeth and Sandy. They replied promptly, they had a good selection of flavors and combinations and they were willing to work within my budget. I gave them an idea of what I wanted and they did such an amazing job, I wanted to cry! The cake was beautiful, the icing and decor executed excellently and most of all, the cake was delicious! That to me is the most important thing! The celebrant and the guests loved it! I Elizabeth and Sandy are so warm and sweet and their shop is adorable. I cannot wait for another occasion so I can order again! Thank you! read more

I had the biggest craving for a cinnamon roll, but was surprised that a lot of local bakeries don't make them. Waited until Saturday to try this place out because I read they only have cinnamon rolls on the weekend. The bakery is tiny but smells like sweet goodness the minute you walk in. The woman who was working was very kind and told me they do make smaller batches of cinnamon rolls during the week in case my craving strikes again As for the cinnamon roll, incredible. Perfect ratio of icing to cinnamon roll. The inside had a very generous amount of cinnamon filling. Can't wait to go back and try their other baked goods! read more

This is a cute bakery with everything made from scratch. We started making it a tradition to purchase the take and bake cinnamon rolls for Christmas.

Awesome mini cake cart. You got to try it. Flavorfull and fun way to get a dessert. Great service and super friendly.

The best way to describe this bakery is a neighborhood hidden gem with magical surprises inside. From delicious treats to handmade gnomes to a genuinely kind fairy godmother, this place has it all! The chocolate croissant was among some of the tastiest I've had, and the cinnamon roll did not disappoint. My only regret was not buying more treats for me to eat throughout the week. The lady working there was the sweetest, most energetic person I've spoken to in a while, and her recommendations were spot on. My experience in the store felt catered to my wants from the moment I opened the door. Highly recommended stopping by this cute treasure trove of a bakery and stocking up for the week! read more

I decided to get a custom cake about 12 days before the birthday party. Usually it's at least 14 day advance for custom cakes but they were able to accommodate the event. I went with a golf theme cake and it came out amazing! Everyone said how awesome the cake was. I usually expect nice cakes to lack flavor or be dry but this one wasn't! Myself and all my guests were raving about the cake flavor. We went with a white cake with raspberry and mini chocolate chip filling, it's one of their speciality creations. SO GOOD. I now have my go to spot for birthday cakes...highly recommend! read more

Cute little shop here in Lake Forest. They make custom orders cakes (as long as you put in your orders a few weeks in advance) and the prices vary depending on the labor and design of your custom cake. I came here for a few breakfast pastries and it was delicious. This store is super cute and when you walk in all you smell is sweets and butter. So you know they make everything here fresh. They even make their own flavored butter that are around $5 a jar. Their mini pies are $7 and they also have macarons, cookies, and cheesecake bars. Owners are very friendly and super nice. Will be back here soon. read more

I just discovered this little gem a few months ago! It's kind of secluded near the starbucks close to Lake Forest and Dimension. They offer yummy cinnamon rolls (I've been told - I can't eat dairy or gluten), delicious little pastries, and desserts. They cater for parties and events too. For my daughter's beach picnic grad party we wanted simple small treats so we ordered mini red velvet cupcakes, pecan vanilla minis, and snickerdoodle mini cookies. They were a hit, especially the snickerdoodles! I also ordered a few gluten free cake cups and we have ordered breakfast pastries and a variety of other goodies. Definitely worth a visit and a good dessert catering option! read more

I have come here on occasion to get "a little something sweet," but this was my first time ordering a cake from them. I will say I was NOT disappointed! I came with pictures of what I wanted, which was a purple ombre with a glaze icing, topped with fruit. The cake was perfect all the way to the perfectly placed pieces for fruit and it was really good cake! The service I received for this order was really nice as well. They took the time to go over the order with me and when time to leave with the cake, walked it out to my car for me and gave me instructions on how it would be best served so I would get the most out of my purchase and experience. I highly recommend this place! read more

From start to finish, the process was seamless and enjoyable. I first called and spoke with a sweet receptionist who patiently answered all my questions and guided me through the ordering and submission process. I emailed Elizabeth and the team three different cake ideas, along with the number of guests and specific design details I wanted. Within a few days, I received a detailed quote for each option, which made it easy to choose the perfect one. Elizabeth was incredible -- she confirmed the flavors via email and even called me personally to walk through the different flavor variations. Once the order was placed, I felt completely confident that everything was in great hands. On the day of pickup, the team called to confirm my cake was ready, making the process even smoother. When I arrived and saw the cake, I was beyond excited. It was absolutely perfect -- exactly what I envisioned for my brother's 30th birthday. Not only was the decoration flawless, but the flavor was also out of this world. It truly became one of the highlights of the night. The staff even helped me carry it to my car, which I appreciated so much. A huge thank you to the amazing team and the kind staff who patiently answered my 200 questions. I am so grateful I ordered from here -- this cake was everything I hoped for and more! read more

Cool little sweet shop here at Lake Forest, right behind Starbucks. My wife and I walked around here almost every day, but it's usually closed (They close at 5 pm daily, Sundays they close at 3 pm, and on Mondays they are close all day.) Today we dropped by, it is a family own business and the owner is usually working in the back. They lady at the front was very nice, very patient while we decided what to get. Various options. It is very small inside, but you can seat outside and enjoy the sweets and or coffee if you want. The sweets we bought are really delicious. The taste is fresh, the caramel is good, as well as the cheesecakes. The presentation is very pleasing too! Prices are well deserved, not expensive, those sweets are worth every penny! read more
