    Wedding Cake
    Anastasia L.

    I cannot believe I haven't done this yet!! Hands down, the best cake in Fresno/Clovis!! It is so moist, every time! We have used them for birthday cakes and a host of other special occasions. They did the cake for our anniversary party. It was 3 tiers and because we were married in December, they decorated with poinsettias. They delivered the cake to the church and set it up for us. They are a little pricey but you get your money's worth in both quality and service. I can't say enough good things about Barb's!!!

    Anniversary cake.  Simply beautiful and so yummy

    This is the second cake I had made at this business. The cakes were both gorgeous and delicious. The service was excellent and their prices are more than reasonable. I recommend this bakery for special occasion events. You'll be very pleased

    Barb's did it again! The raspberry chocolate chi, boysenberry, and apricot cakes we ordered for our daughter's baby shower were the talk of the party! Delicious, moist, and beautiful decorated. It's hard to believe that they can provide this level of quality at such a reasonable price. We will continue to recommend Barb's bakery to all our friends and family!

    Love love love barbs! For the past few years now if I have the opportunity to get a barbs cake I will! This cake pictured was from my baby shower. We've had plenty of different designs and flavors from barbs and they are always great! Friendly staff! Always very helpful to any requests I might have.

    We hired barbs cakery for our wedding date 10/15/21 Best choice ever!!!! Affordable and delicious cakes! One of the reasons I'm doing the review is because a year later from our wedding date we did the traditional cake thing and the cake still tasted great! It was moist and delicious!!!! All after one year of sitting in the deep freezer! Good job Barb's cakery! I will definitely recommend this business to anyone looking for large wedding cakes! They are amazing from timing & scheduling, to cake tasting to wedding day and all! They follow up with you too after wedding day to return any rentals you might need to take back which I loved!!! Thank you so much for creating our dream wedding cake!!

    I'm late in writing this review, but Barb's Cakery did my wedding cake and it was absolutely amazing. My husband and I still think about how tasty it was. Service was also great, this place is the best. Highly recommend for any event. Look how beautiful my cake is! Flowers and topper added by us.

    I am absolutely thrilled with my experience. The cake is exactly what I wanted. It was a hit at the party. Usually I have lots of cake leftover for birthdays but not this cake. Not only did it look amazing but it tasted amazing. The cake was moist and fresh. The chocolate cake was my favorite. 10/10 recommend. Thank you to the team at Barb's.

    I ordered my son's birthday cake and when I picked it up I was shocked. It looked like a 10 year old decorated it. I talked to 6 decorators about this cake and it still looked horrible. I thought they ran out of frosting since it was nothing like I asked for. I will not be back. It was a175 dollar disaster. This was going to be the last birthday party I could ever give my son I am so sick over this.

    Starbuck's Cake for Daughters 30th B-Day.
 Fabulous!!!

    Barb's Cakery is the only place I use for all my cake needs. Fantastic decorators. Lots of cake/fillings/frosting choices. Try them out, you won't be disappointed.

    what we asked for

    I went to go pick up the cake 10 minutes late. the lady was upset and told me to put the flowers on myself. the design looks like they just smeared it on there and it's only on one side of the cake. I was so embarrassed to have this cake at my baby shower I started contacting anyone that could make me a replacement. I wish they would have just told me that they didn't know how to decorate the cake and I would have chose to do something else. It looks nothing like the Inspiration photo.

We also picked up knafeh and diamond shaped baklavas. Perfect chew, crunch and sweetness. So freakin' good! You can tell the owner is passionate about his craft. He asked us if it was our first time there, then took the time to share samples with us. So welcoming and friendly! I can see why this place has a nearly perfect yelp rating. Will definitely need to make a trip back!!

Like pork buns are 3.00 cash and 3.09 credit card. But at least that's an option now. Warmly greeted and helped at the front counter when I walked in. Looks like a traditional Chinese bakery with their decor and set up and heard the front counter lady say their food is more based on the south side of China. Their steam pork buns will always be a favorite. I was lucky enough to walk in when they brought out a fresh new batch so it was still nice and warm when I got home. Dough is sweet and fluffy with their bbq pork filling. For 3.00 a bun, it was quite smaller than I remember. The ratio of the dough and filling was also not as portioned. Some bites you just get the dough. First time having their steam chicken buns and was surprised to see that it was sliced chicken with veggies and a slice boiled egg. This was not it for me. It was like eating a stir fry in a bun. Though this bun was bigger and more portioned than the steam pork buns. This was also my first time trying their Shumai dumplings. The flavor was there. A nice umami flavor. But I was missing the bouncy texture of the meat. And for 4 for 7.00 they were pretty small (compared to the dim sum places). Looking forward to trying other others on their menu now that the menu and signs are easier to see/read.

But whatever it was, it was so good. The other thing that I got was the Ube brownie. Now this thing was unique in taste and worth coming back for as it's nothing like your average brownie. It had some chew to it but it melted in your mouth. Plus it's purple. Please come try this place out.

    Incredibly satisfying baked goods that highlight the art of sourdough baking!…read more We visited Culture Bakehouse at the Vineyard Farmers Market this past Saturday and ordered a pack of their sourdough bagels, slice of coffee cake, morning bun, strawberry scone and a pack of their sourdough chaos cookies. The cookies were a last minute purchase and we were glad we purchased with our eyes because they were the best cookies we have ever eaten! Every ingredient blended well together without it being overly sweet. My husband is a scone fan and we have been on a quest for the best scone in Fresno and so far the strawberry scone from Culture Bakehouse is in the lead! The morning bun was good but missed the mark on the chewy caramelization and orange zest that characterizes a morning bun. The bagels were well executed and I enjoyed them the next day, toasted with a slab of cream cheese and eggs. The coffee cake was also a favorite and not overly sweet.

The restaurant was extremely busy, so I do recommend making reservations ahead of time. The service could have been a little better, but considering how packed it was, it felt more overwhelmed than rude. One thing to know ahead of time: Diet Cokes come in cans, not fountain drinks, so there are no refills. The biggest disappointment for us was the limited menu selection that day. There were mostly sandwiches and not a lot of variety. I ordered the quiche, which ended up needing extra sauces on the side because it felt a little plain on its own. My husband ordered the French toast, and that was actually very good. Ambiance was alright - a little cramped but the live music gave it a touch of class. Overall, I'd still recommend trying this place, just maybe not on a major holiday when the menu is limited and the restaurant is packed. I'd be willing to give it another shot on a normal weekend because I have a feeling the regular menu probably offers a much better experience.
