Sent in order/inquiry via email and she was able to communicate effectively all the details that needed to be addressed in the span of a few days. Cake quality: 4.5/5 I originally chose s'mores and guava but because I wasn't sure if two layers would be too much for 2 people serving, I decided with 1 layer and 1 flavor. S'mores flavor was a marshmallow delight, which included a marshmallows buttercream for frosting, chocolate flavor cake, and marshmallows and graham cracker center. I loved that the frosting and cake were not overly sweet but felt that there could've been a bit more graham cracker. Overall: would highly recommend! If you are looking for a fast turn around time, and solid in quality flavor and design, please consider paperrock fork bakery! Also, Cheers to Elmeisher--She really cares and aims to make every cake wonderful and her best work yet. Can't wait to try her bakery again :)

The store size is as expected of a small bakery. I think due to its cake output and the demand i would recommend calling earlier than later to reserve a cake, but also hope that they pick up the phone. The guava cake did not have very much guava taste. I'm used to the Zippy kind of guava cake and was hoping to experience something similar. The guava cake at this bakery may be a Guam influenced type so keep your expectations in check.

The butter toffee cookie was the best, it was flavorful, the toffee has added toasted nutty flavor with some sugar. I would get a box full. Overall, has a great variety of baked goods.

Nisha made a mermaid-themed cake for my daughter's party! The presentation and the flavors were top-notch. The addition of pistachios added a delightful crunch, while the Indian rose flavor was a unique and wonderful touch. What impressed me most was how you balanced the sweetness - it was just right, so even the kids could enjoy every bite without feeling overwhelmed. Your generosity and talent shone through in every slice. Thank you for making our party even more special! read more

When he got to my house, imagine my surprise when I found a green bomb with little leprechauns surrounding it! And after I blew out the candle, we cut into it and it had the perfect blend of flavors! It tasted like chocolate + Guiness--just like a real Irish Car Bomb! Since that party, I've enjoyed lots of other cakes from Deanna-- a cake shaped like a tooth to celebrate a friend entering dental school... a sushi cake (because we had a sushi themed party)... you name it and Deanna's creativity oozes out. Deanna is definitely one of the most creative people I've ever met and I love ordering cakes from Artistic Bites!

I usually don't wait until the last minute to book the all important cake but I contacted Will on a Monday for a birthday party for Saturday May the twenty fifth. A holiday weekend no less! But Will was available so we decided to book him and since we reside close to Will in Castro Valley it seemed like a great idea. We talked about cake size (we chose a half sheet) and discussed flavors. My son wanted a chocolate marble cake and we added a fresh strawberry filling. Will wanted an idea as to design for the cake and we emailed him a photo of what we might want. But Will had a different idea as to cake design of having the game itself be the decoration. My husband and I trusted Will's vision for the cake but told him the important elements of the cake. My son really wanted Darth Vader and the Death Star Pig as the main elements of the cake. We agreed on a pick up time and waited for Saturday morning. We were not disappointed at all! The cake looked and tasted great! The design was so beautiful too! Will even honored our request of a "not too sweet" cake. It tasted as good as it looked. And for a decorated half sheet with fresh strawberries with marble cake was only $ 60.00! Wow what a deal!
