We got our baby's 1st birthday cake and they just did an amazing job. I am sorry I don't remember the ladies name who helped us but she was exemplary. Gave us great advice on cake flavors, designs, and whatever they can do to accommodate my wife's wishes of saving some memorabilia for the kid's 1st birthday cake. Oh and the cake itself was amazing as well. Everyone at the party asked us about this place. The prizes were great as well especially compared to some of the other local bakeries we talked to, I mean almost hundred dollars less or more for a sheet cake. Thanks for helping us make our kid's 1st birthday so memorable :) read more

Could not be happier with this company! My wedding cake was perfect, my exact vision, and tasted amazing! We did two flavors (chocolate cake with mocha cream filling and marble cake with strawberry Bavarian cream filling), all the chefs here were so easy to work with and happy to accommodate my requests. The cake was a huge hit at my wedding and was almost gone by the end of the night. Good thing I ordered extra cake to take home haha! My husband and I are enjoying some every night :) I would recommend Eccentric International Chefs to any of my friends! read more

If you want a quick and cheap treat get their cake in a cup. So good!! Really good tasting cake and filling. Not too sweet and doesn't taste artificial at all. The owner was also super nice and explained all the flavors. read more

I'm a guy and don't know anything about cakes. I called to order a cake for my wife's birthday and they walked me through the variety of options...flavor, style, size, cream, design, etc... there were very helpful and I wound up with a marble sheet with whipped cream frosting. It looked fantastic and tasted great and everyone enjoyed it. They have some pretty neat designs in the shop and I'll be ordering all my future event cakes from them as they nailed it. Very happy and highly recommend. read more

Recently got a birthday cake, was delicious. Marble cake was divine and the Bavarian chocolate layering with raspberry was fantastic. Owner was very friendly and helpful. Fast turnaround time. Will definitely be returning for future cakes and pastries. read more

A month ago I called EIC on behalf of dear friends that needed specialty cupcakes created for the memorial of their 2 children. I had called other local bakeries, but without a doubt, EIC were the most professional, affordable, and sensitive to the nature of the situation. Not only did they create the most beautiful, and tasty cupcakes, the understood the weight of grief that came along with it. I recall going in to the bakery to check on the cupcakes, the day before the memorial, starting to cry, and having the staff cry with me. It was a tender moment of us all recognizing the big loss. Thank you, EIC for commemorating these precious little souls so well. Your generosity, kindness, and compassion will not be forgotten! read more

Only four stars cause I haven't tasted the birthday cake yet but my hubby being a last minute shopper went in to the bakery today for my birthday to pick up a cake and found this cake and knew I wanted a snoopy cake had this pic put on it.

Total disappointment... I have ordered a mix berry cake and I will be posting the picture of the cake they made on every single online platform. NEVER EVER AGAIN from this so called "bakery" For the money they charged, I could have buy 5 cakes from Vons which has way WAY more berry in it. NOT total 2 sliced strawberry and 4 blueberry for 12 people cake. Its a shame... read more

Went out to get dinner and had to go next door to my favorite bakery. It was a hard decision to make as to what to get. The staff are very friendly, and there was a gentleman customer also deciding on what to get, as we chose our desserts he decided he had to come over and order the same. The conversation between staff and the three of us customers was very humorous. We decided also on cherry and Nutella cookies and an eclair. These desserts are the bomb. The whipped cream is so delicious, one of those you could just have a small bowl and eat alone. Bravo to this Bakery and its staff. read more

My coworker had bought pies from this place a year ago and they were good had a berry pie and an apple pie I thought I would like the apple pie more I really don't like berry pies but this one was great. So when the holiday season came around I choose to get a pie from them rather then my go to Marie Callender or Coco's I know I'm basic but it is what it is. So I asked my coworker what pies they had and she named them off and the one that's sparked my interest was the chocolate pecan pie. I looooooooove pecan pie and chocolate so how can this not be fire, I picked it up the day before Thanksgiving and It was a hit with everyone the service was great in and out process and during this pandemic that's hard to come by. I only got one pie since I'm a procrastinator but Christmas is another story I will order more pies in a timely manner. read more

Quick. Affordable. Flavorful. Large parking lot. I've heard many great things about this bakery and finally stopped in for a last minute bday cake. They had a variety of flavors in 2 different sizes readily available. Pricing is extremely generous. Cake was moist and delicious. Icing had the perfect amount of sweetness. We will definitely be back and plan on ordering a custom cake in the future. read more

I'm bummed I was really hoping to have found a good bakery. Staff was friendly. However, the cake ordered was misspelled. I also did not know that a 1 inch thick layer of frosting would be put as the filling. I requested raspberry filling and received a small amount compared to the generous amount of really sweet buttercream. The cake itself was dry. We did not end up eating it. Luckily, this was a trial Birthday cake and not served to guest. read more

I found Eccentric International Chefs at the bridal bazaar expo and it was love at first bite! I was looking for a wedding cake that my mother would be able to eat (she's diabetic) and this was perfect. The frosting was not too sweet and the filling was delicious. I gave them an inspiration photo and they nailed it. I only wish my husband and I got served a slice instead of just the first bite photo op, but that was the servers fault at our reception. I would definitely recommend them for your wedding if you're looking for a cake that's not overly sweet. A bonus about them is that you don't have to freeze your cake for your anniversary, they will give you a fresh cake on your anniversary! Thank you! Photo by James Korin Photography read more

Ordered lemon coconut cake for Easter. Moist and delicious. Friendliest employees I've come across in years. Will definitely order again.

We've become regular customers here in the last year and I'm so glad they're so close to home! Karl and team make the most delicious treats and their custom cakes are unbeatable when it comes to design, cost and taste. Turn around time is quick and quality is high. The hours are amazing for early birds like me; I can swing by and get a fresh cake from the display at 6:30am on my way to start the day! Very convenient for the last minute birthday treat needs! The baked goods are amazing as well. We've had cookies of many variety and cake in a cup (parfait), all with rave reviews. Yay Eccentric! read more

Tried to get into this establishment twice now. First time was a Monday, didn't know they ate closed on Monday (my bad). 2nd time was a Wednesday. Sign on the door said open til 6 pm. It was 4:15 pm. Door was locked. Looked them up on their website and it said close at 4:00 pm. Very disappointing. Too far to drive to be disappointed again. read more

I was referred to them by my sister who hired them for her wedding back in 2018! I still reached out to other vendors for cake/desserts but Chef Carl and Becky still stood out as they were so kind and responsive to all my questions. It was also so great to do our tasting with Chef Carl and he made our cake flavors that both me and my husband like as we have opposing tastes. We also did a dessert bar with them such as mini cupcakes, cookies, brownies and etc. and all our guests loved every treat. They also worked with us in decorating the cupcakes to match our wedding colors, they turned out so beautiful. I highly recommend them for any cake or dessert needs! read more

We used Eccentric International Chefs for our wedding cake and cupcakes. Carl and Melina were the easiest to work with. We met with Melina to go over the cake design and flavors. We did not plan to go with the flavors that we did, but their cakes are AMAZING!!! Their pricing was extremely fair and they even offer a free cake on your first wedding anniversary (so you don't have to save the top tier for a year later). They were able to make an amazing cake based on pinterest inspiration. They called about one week prior to the wedding to confirm details and remained professional throughout. Delivery went off without a hitch. We would absolutely recommend to anyone getting married in the area. We wish we lived closer so we could enjoy their treats on a regular basis! read more

This bakery came from Heaven. I have had every cupcake from sprinkles, gourmet Groceries and countless bakeries from LA to SD. Words can't describe the cakes and cupcakes. Cake- perfection. Moist but not wet moist and gross. Just perfect. Icing- buttercream or whipped ... you will find yourself on cloud 9. Not sugar gross sweet - just perfect. The entire staff is has the most amazing spirits and always ready to help. Sometimes I just look at all of the beautiful custom cakes. Makes me want to have a do over wedding just so I can have the cake from here. The is the crème de la crème of bakeries and the best prices. Seriously, I struggling on my diet thinking about this place. Thank goodness it is far away from where I live. But a good excuse to drive to the town of Santee. Epic bakery!!!! I can't post pictures because I'm ashamed of how I look demolishing the cupcakes. read more

They made the cake for our daughter's wedding and it was beautiful and delicious. The chef delivered it to the venue and arranged the flowers that we supplied to match the theme. The chocolate mousse cake was a hit. The price includes a duplicate top layer for the newlyweds on their first anniversary. So they didn't have to save it. (Also, the chef called the week before to ask the bride if there were any last minute changes. She did make some changes, so she was happy that he called.) Thank you Chef! read more

Probably the worst cake decoration and cupcake display I've ever seen. Notice to all people interested in cakes, desserts, pastries, etc. I feel this is a fair warning that I will not be doing business again with Eccentric International Chefs. You can see in the picture to the left they display beautiful designs for cakes and their website shows the same... gorgeous cakes. The picture on the right is what was delivered on my wedding day. Granted I ordered a 1 level cake vs a tired cake. Regardless, the care in the design and care for customers is clearly lacking and very embarrassing. When I asked the chef about it he proceeded to yell at me for confronting his design. This company was found at the San Diego #bridalbazaar and I personally will no be going their again. read more

They first did my parents wedding cake back in March, it was SOO beautiful and tasted amazing so my mom and I chose for them to do my baby shower cake and I seriously cannot say this enough, IT WAS THE BEST &MOST BEAUTIFUL CAKE OF MY LIFE! I did the lemon cake on the top and the white chocolate raspberry on the bottom, my husband usually isnt a big cake fan and even he LOVED it! I can't get enough of it. I highly recommend them and will definitely be coming to them for every cake I need from here on out. read more

We are so happy with Eccentric International Chefs! We found out on a Wednesday that my sons wedding cake could not be made for the upcoming Saturday wedding.

They made me a beautiful 2 tiered cake exactly what we wanted!!!! read more

I expected alot more for what I paid. The birthday cake was supposed to have a standing castle tower. When I picked up the cake the castle tower was just a picture. It looked like I bought cake at costco but paid more. Overall I say it's just a basic cake with minimal filling inside. I wouldn't go back. read more

I agreed with another reviewer about their wedding cake, I had a very similar thing happen to me. The tasting and initial consultation was perfect, we didn't even consider any other bakery after meeting with Melina. The flavors were wonderful, we were very impressed. She was helpful and accomodating. Melina came up with some fantastic ideas on the design of the cake, even drew out a plan on how she would create it (piped flowers to match our wedding invitation, which I gave her a copy of). She said that her husband does the baking and she does the decorating. She even requested that I get larger sized color swatches from the paint store so she could match the colors we wanted for the iced flowers. I was so excited about the cake, it was actually the one splurge we had in the wedding budget, everything else I was making or creating myself. But to see the cake in person on my wedding day, I could not have been more disappointed. Instead of piped on flowers, it appeared that my wedding invitation had been photocopied onto a sheet of sugar and stuck on the sides of my cake. The colors were washed out and dull. The frosting job was sloppy and there was a fingerprint in it. There were no piped on flowers, nothing of what we'd discussed. The entire look was boring and so disappointing. Fortunately my husband's aunt is a florist and was able to decorate the cake with flowers to liven the look up. The cake still tasted good and my guests were happy with it but it was definitely something that irked me. I emailed the bakery after the wedding and never received a response. read more

If you want a delicious and inexpensive cake, come here! I had tasted their cakes before from others that have ordered from Eccentric but have not ordered a cake from them personally. My friend wanted a "baby lunch" not shower with NO pink or pastels! So the only colors that would do, were red, black and white. I walked in 3 weeks before the event and ordered a chevron print cake serving 10 people. I told her that I didn't want to spend more than $50 and the price was so affordable I was shocked! A week before the shower, more people had RSVP'd. So I called Eccentric and asked if they can add more to the cake since more people will be attending. She said, "sure, no problem. So for an additional $20 she added a lady bug to the top of the cake and another layer, feeding 30 people! When I arrived to pick up the cake, I was nervous to see it. But when she showed me the cake looked great!! It was huge! She was kind enough to ask me if I needed help to my car, but I managed. :-) I ordered a white cake with fresh strawberry filling with butter cream frosting. It was Delicious! There was so much extra cake to give away! read more

Carl designed our wedding cake and we were so impressed with the final result. When we first met with Carl, I did not come with pictures and only had a mental picture of what I wanted. Carl designed our cake based on my description. He also helped us decide on flavors because we loved everything we tasted! On the wedding day the cake was delivered on time and looked beautiful. So many of our guests asked us where we got our cake because they loved it! We found a baker for life! read more

We started off at a place called flower power to pick up my daughter's baby shower cake the service was really awful we were very happy that that was the case. Because when we got to eccentric cakes the customer service the atmosphere the food everything was phenomenal. Becky was the lady that helped us and she went above and beyond to make sure that my daughter's baby shower cake was everything she wants to be. Then we called to see if they could deliver it to our party and they were more than happy to do . So if you're looking for a van tastic service great cake awesome prices and family orientated atmosphere this is definitely the place to go we want to thank everyone there for how they made us feel and they made our day thank you read more

Best bakery ever. We did a whiskey/Jack Daniels themed birthday bash and look at this cake. It was the talk of the party. Not only was it amazingly decorated, but it tasted incredible.

Eccentric Int'l Chefs made our wedding cake for our 06/01/13 wedding. Not only was it gorgeous and aesthetically pleasing, everyone LOVED how it tasted! Carl and Melina do an excellent job with their customers, they don't haggle you or give you the runaround, which a lot of wedding vendors will do. They don't charge by the slice, which a lot of other cake places do, and they give you a great value for your money. We loved them so much that we're ordering 2 small cakes for our anniversary. We will definitely be ordering from Eccentric Int'l Chefs in the future! read more
