    The remnants of our tasting
    Keturah F.

    My mother set up this tasting, and although it was originally over-budget, I would cut other wedding expenses to work with a baker like Trang every time! The weird thing was that our wedding cake tasting was set in a nail salon. ‍ that being said, I have been in a LOT of nail salons and this one was lovely and we were on the other side of the salon, so there was a separation of space that felt very natural. No acrylic smells wafting through the air here! Do not be deterred! When my fiancé and I walked in the table was set for two. We were immediately welcomed with sparkling water, tea, and dessert wine. So pampered! We started the tasting with Trang's flavor recommendations and every bite was exquisite. You do not have to LOVE food to enjoy her cakes, but they are the "best cakes I've ever tasted" in my fiancés words. If you DO care about food the way I do, you will appreciate just how much thought and care goes into every bite you take. Trang makes every single cake from scratch with the highest quality ingredients. She even makes the BUTTER from scratch. Do you know how much easier it is to buy butter???? Each cake she brought out was decorated as we were tasting them. The buttercream you see in the pictures? The garnishes on the plates? All finished in-house. As we sampled we discussed my two favorite topics: weddings and sweets. The conversation was lovely and flowed naturally. My fiancé, who usually feels uninformed and even underwhelmed by cake was immediately eager to try the next decadence she had in store for us. A master at her craft, Trang provided excellent service, cakes that delighted the palate, and an experience we will not soon forget. Even if you aren't sure if you will use her as your baker, I highly recommend you try her out, as her ability to create a vision will get you absolutely thrilled for your wedding day. (Or any other special event!!) Her cakes may have a higher price tag, but her love and her labor is worth every cent. I look forward to my wedding day, where our Blooming Cakes masterpiece will surely wow our guests. (Bonus- it was my birthday and it was just such a wonderful experience overall. I hope you choose her. You will not regret it.)

    Blooming Cakes is the best place in Marin for personalized baked goods! Trang is the creative mastermind beyond this small business and she thrives at delighting and leaving her customers in awe with any theme, flavor or dietary restriction they throw her way. Does your kid want a buttercream Barbie princess cake that's gluten free? No problem. All you need to do is send her a message and she will help you flush out the details. You can't find quality like this in a grocery store at such a reasonable price. Just look at the gingerbread molasses cookie she made for the holidays! Simply breathtaking.

    Blooming Cakes made our wedding cake, and we were more than impressed. The pandan cake was unique and exceptional! Trang is an artist.

I was afraid it was going to be too dense and heavy. It was not. It was divinely sweet and light, and I would say fluffy deliciousness! Wouldn't it be incredible if I could eat that cheesecake daily and not gain weight?! Lmao, I so wish I could! Lol ummm If you want. Amazing, fluffy, delicious cheesecake. You gotta come here elsewhere; you'll be very, very disappointed. The owner does raise money for kids in college. This is a win-win situation. You help others while eating fantastic cheesecake! The owner is just amazing and what a beautiful and delicious idea! Yassss and thank you! Cheers to you and SYOY 08/14/24

I follow her on instagram so I can hit every single pop up she has! She now has the cutest food truck Ive ever seen! These cheesecakes are worth 10,000 stars! I usually buy the small ones but this time I got the big daddy for the holiday! It was a true master piece of beauty. I got the pumpkin spice cheesecake! As soon as I opened the box and saw it my expectations were blown out of the water! It was stunning! The perfect whip cream peaks covered in fall leaves and glitter were stunning! Everyone at the party was in awe! I've never seen a dessert photographed so many times! Aside from the beauty it was simply delicious!!!! She's a true culinary and creative artist! These pictures although beautiful don't even do this justice. If you haven't tried her cheesecakes do yourself a favor and go now!!!! Support local. She's a true gem and I'm so lucky I found her. HIGHLY RECOMMEND.

I initially didn't contact her because her site said she was sold out for several weeks. However, in desperation, I wrote to her after many bakers in the area let me down with their non-responsiveness, leading me on with a first response, and then not replying to my questions. I literally was left within 10 days of needing a cake and was getting super worried. I was so delighted when she responded the next day saying she would see what she can do! I immediately sent her a list of 9 questions as well as a sketch of what I was hoping to see to match the feel of the event (see below). She responded and answered all my questions the next morning (she even apologized for the late response) I know other bakers probably are not used to seeing sketches, but I am a very selective designer myself and have ordered cakes for so many other occasions (never with a sketch), only to have been disappointed with their lack of understanding style, taste and presentation quality. A mid-century birthday is pretty big and I was determined to get something unique, delicious, masculine and gorgeous, and found it with Live Love Bake! To feed a small group of 22 people, I ordered a 9" single tier Yellow cake with a caramel drizzle and crushed sea salted butter toffee pecan filling, (pecans supplied by me), American buttercream frosting done smooth with gold pearls coming up from the bottom (also supplied by me due to the urgency). It was gorgeous, delicious, and just as I sketched! All I had to do was add the succulents to the top:) The next day after the party, a few friends contacted me asking for Lindsay's contact info. They loved the cake, which for Marin Foodies, is a huge compliment! I will continue to order all future special cakes from Live Love Bake and Lindsay's amazing understanding to detail as well as customer service! Lindsay-Thank you so much for your unbelievable responsiveness, amazing baking talent and fine artistry!

    Where do I even begin?…read more I feel like I owe Jessica the most glowing, overdue review on Yelp. As a repeat customer, I only just discovered her Yelp page--and honestly, shame on me for not singing her praises publicly sooner. Jessica is a home baker, a stay-at-home mom of two, and a full-blown culinary artist. Her business, Jessica & Co Creations, is everything you hope to find in a local bakery--but with the heart, soul, and warmth that only comes from someone who genuinely loves what they do. Let me tell you about a recent event. We threw a "Death to My 20s" themed 30th birthday party for my boyfriend. I asked Jessica for two dozen cupcakes--half vanilla with vanilla buttercream, and the other half vegan chocolate with chocolate frosting (we had a vegan friend joining us). Not only did she stay in communication with me every step of the way, making sure my vision came to life, but she absolutely nailed it. I'm lactose intolerant and usually can't enjoy most desserts, but those vegan chocolate cupcakes? Mouthwatering. Moist, rich, decadent, and most importantly--made with such care. I felt so seen and included, like this wasn't just a cupcake, it was a small act of love. And yes, I devoured more than my fair share. Then there was my own birthday. Unbeknownst to me, my boyfriend planned a surprise party--and there it was: a Kirby-themed birthday cake! If you don't know who Kirby is, he's a round, pink video game character from Nintendo who inhales enemies and gains their powers. He's adorable, iconic, and a core part of my personality. The fact that Jessica made a cake so personal, so perfect--it genuinely brought me to tears. Not only was it beautiful, it was delicious. The entire party devoured it like Kirby himself. It was a perfect moment of joy and nostalgia. But wait--it gets better. Jessica also makes these genius little boxes called cake samplers. Think: a bite of everything for those of us who don't want to commit to one whole cake (or let's be honest--just want to eat four mini cakes without judgment). Red velvet, Oreo, birthday cake, carrot cake... It's a guilty pleasure in a box. Honestly, I buy these as a treat to myself because life's too short not to eat cake whenever you want. She's also the queen of cookies. I'm currently waiting on a fresh batch of her cookies, and the anticipation is REAL. Jessica is everything you want in a baker: creative, kind, detail-oriented, communicative, and incredibly talented. Whether you need a simple batch of chocolate chip cookies, a stunning custom cake, or a dozen cupcakes that make your heart (and tastebuds) sing--Jessica & Co Creations is the answer. Support this amazing woman. She's not just baking treats--she's baking memories.

    **check the photos for Tony's response to this straight up MESSSSS…read more He tells us that for a full refund we would have to bring back the uneaten cake.?Unfortunately we didn't know our cake was wrong until we cut into it at OUR PARTY where yes it needed to be served as it was the only cake we bought. This company is a jooooke. Couldn't even do the right thing when they were alllll wrong. My boyfriend's parents put us in charge of their 50th anniversary party and I knew instantly I wanted to get them a special cake. No costco, no Whole Foods but a real bakery from a real local business. We would have used cakes by Karl ( also in Vallejo) but they did not do marble cake which we knew we wanted in order to match their original wedding cake. Tony's had marble cake as an option and good Yelp reviews so I thought I had found the perfect match! We did the online order form as requested, and my boyfriend confirmed with a woman on the phone TWICE( once the wk our cake was due) that our order was correct and we were on the same page. We even paid in full before we ever got our cake. When we arrived to pick uour cake up yesterday it was beautiful but it was WRONG!! We asked for a marble cake with chocolate buttercream frosting. No other flavors, fillings, or stuffings just marble cake with chocolate frosting. We got a cake covered in white frosting!!! We told the lady we asked for chocolate frosting and she checked her order form to prove us wrong but quickly realized she was wrong and then went to work making chocolate frosting right there in front of us. We were there to pick up our cake for a agreed upon time of 10:30 and we had to wait an additional 30 minutes for her to scrape the white frosting off, make chocolate frosting, and then redecorate our cake with the fresh flowers we ordered. " Tony" could be seen in the back decorating right in front of the girl who was doing our cake and he never addressed us or her about the lack of professionalism. He was probably rightfully embarrassed but it was sad to not see a business owner own up to their mistakes and make things right. No one should show up to cake pick up with the complete wrong cake. To make matters worse... yes it get worse than watching your cake scraped and remade in front of you. When we actually cut the cake at our party...it was wrong too!!! We got the marble cake but with a layer of white frosting in the middle and STRAWBERRIES?!!!! The chocolate frosting we asked for was completely disregarded!!!l They effed this cake up. It was nasty. No one asked where it was from. No one took home the leftovers. This place I feel is in over their heads. I do NOT recommend.
