This review took me a few weeks to write because I am so sad I have to share my experience. Butter (Devonna) has been my go-to cake gal for the last couple of years. She has made birthday cakes, cupcakes, and a graduation cake for my fiancée. My fiancée wanted to order me my own graduation cake as I graduated with my masters a couple weeks ago. She contacted Devonna and they were set on the design and pick-up time. Devonna sent over the invoice and it showed $140 for a cake for 15 people. Usually we pay around $100-$120 so I checked in with her, because I wanted to make sure we were paying the right price. I tried to communicate clearly that I wanted to pay her but just wanted to double check the price was correct. This was on the Monday before my graduation. I had not heard from her so I reached out a couple more times in hopes to get her paid before pick-up. I got no response but I went to go pick up the cake anyway and figured I would hear from her soon so we could pay her. I show up to the location for pickup and the woman I spoke with brought out a cake, except it wasn't my cake, it was a birthday cake. I saw her texting Devonna and she replied back immediately, telling her to take out the "happy birthday sign" -- at this point the woman in front of me told me it was my cake just wrong signage. I told her it looked nothing like what we talked about (it was blue and white) and so she called Devonna. She said I was right, it was the wrong cake and said that Devonna would call me shortly for me to pick the cake up at her house nearby. I waited in my car for 30 mins in hopes devonna would call. She never did. We texted and called her repeatedly with no answer. I really enjoyed working with Devonna but it was the day before my graduation and now I had no cake. The morning of my graduation, my fiancée had to rush to a local bakery (shout out Delight) and pick up 2 already made cakes to replace the one we were going to get from Devonna. I've reached out since then and have had no response from her. I still have no idea why we were ghosted but are very sad we had to end this relationship and write this review.

I ordered 2 very last minute cakes and they came Out amazing. One for my son's first bday and the other for a baby shower the next day. Everyone raved about how good they were and the decoration was perfect for each event. I can't thank Devonna enough for her great work.

I selfishly don't want to write this amazing review because I don't want to let the cat out the bag, but this baker is the truth! I ordered a two tier cake for my 40th and provided inspo pics as well as some toppers I specifically wanted on my cake ( I added the 40 later) when I tell you not only was the cake pretty, but it was super tasty!!! Unfortunately, often times when you buy these pretty cakes they are pretty only and lack in flavor, but this is not the case with butter bakery! I love the fact that she used actual icing and not fondant (Im sure some people request or prefer fondant) but I do not and the cake held together perfectly with the frosting! My top layer was cookie butter yummmmm and the bottom layer red velvet yummmm! Both layers were moist and delicious! I'm so very satisfied with my order and will be ordering again in the future! The reviews do not lie lol and literally everyone at my party wanted to know where I ordered the cake. So thank you for the beautiful flavorful cake!

Last email with my disappointment they never apologized about.

Edit: Now the owner is a liar as well, because I have the emails they never responded too. Check the one star reviews as I'm not the only one. Not sure what a pandemic has to do with responding to emails, all that was needed on their part was a professional apology and a doesn't excuse like a family emergency, which with a small business would have been completely understandable. But instead rude lies and unprofessionalism... Original post: Terrible at responding to emails, no phone number given, ghosted me and left me having to run to Marie calendars at the last minute when they left me hanging for an event... What a disgraceful way to run a business.

Devonna is a kind, sincere baker who has made all of our kids' birthdays magical. Her cakes taste so authentic and homemade. Her butter cream is so delicious, never too sweet or heavy. She will deliver any design based on Pinterest or a photo, but add her own flare. She doesn't compromise on any of her ingredients and puts so much effort. Easy to talk to, personable, and has never failed to deliver at any of our events. Highly recommend, along with any of her savory cookies.

I ordered some brown butter toffee cookies for a work event, and everyone loved them!! They were the clear favorite out of all the desserts. The cookies were the perfect balance of crispy and chewy. I made sure to give Butter Bakery a shoutout, so I can't wait for this bakery to get more customers!

Farrah V.

Butter bakery is top notch! The cookies were moist and delicious! The cake was beautifully made and so delicious and the cupcakes were beautifully done! Devonna has a good thing going! Support her!

I was looking to bring my coworkers some spooky treats on Halloween so a couple of weeks ago I made some calls to bakeries around Pasadena. DeVonna emailed me a few days later to let me know she could make the type of cookies I was looking for, we discussed designs and prices through email, then we agreed on 35 custom Halloween cookies, including pumpkins, candy corn, black cats, fall leaves, bats, and ghosts for $105, to be ready on October 30. She seemed friendly and was flexible on shapes and designs, telling me that she'd let me know if she couldn't find the cutters for any of them. I was charged through QuickBooks on October 19, which did make me a bit nervous considering I hadn't even met anyone from the bakery in person, or have any sort of contact info apart from an email address. DeVonna emailed me on Oct 30 to let me know there was an emergency that happened that day, causing her to be short staffed and wondering if she could deliver them later. Since I needed to bring them to work early the next morning, I told her I would prefer if she delivered them later that night instead of the next morning. Despite the obstacles, she was still able to have them made and delivered to me on October 30. In the rush to get my cookies to me on time, someone accidentally dropped a box of the cookies and DeVonna texted me to ask if I wanted replacement cookies or a partial refund. Since it was 8:30pm, I told her I'd rather have the partial refund. About an hour later, a delivery person was at the front with the cookies. I noticed a card was included, but I figured it was just a thank you note. The cookies looked adorable! I couldn't wait to share them with my coworkers and I texted DeVonna to let her know as much, and she responded warmly. The card was very sweet, too. She apologized for the inconveniences and had included the partial refund in cash. My coworkers absolutely loved the cookies, as they were as tasty as they were cute. My coworkers know I write reviews and multiple people told me to "write a good review!" If I need baked goods for another special occasion, I'm coming to Butter Bakery first.

We were in a pinch with less than 2 days needing cupcakes for our son's birthday. Butter Bakery came through amazingly well! Thank you!! We'll definitely be ordering again

TLDR: A delicious wonderful cake made with love and wonderful customer service! So I'm the one who received the cake rather than went through the process of ordering it but I will tell you what my friends told me. So my friend Anna emailed the bakery to ask for a cake for my birthday. Long story short, the cake was in the works but when it came to a theme they said they wouldn't be able to make it in time for what Anna asked, so my friends picked out a different theme instead. Anna was a little bummed about it but glad at least to still get a cake. Devonna was able to deliver the cake all the way to me in North Hollywood. Turns out, she was able to do the theme that Anna asked for and I was in for quite the surprise! Check the photo below to see what it was. The cake was delicious and beautifully decorated. Although I don't know all of the processes that went through, Anna told me that there was great communication throughout and Devonna was very sweet and kind and tried her best to work with my friends. Thank you so much for making it work out for me. It truly made my covid birthday quite special and memorable. I did not think I'd get this kind of cake in my 20's haha. I look forward to personally ordering treats from you soon!

Custom-order cake from Butter Bakery. Delicious!

Absolutely fantastic cake! We requested a re-creation of our favorite birthday cake from another bakery that is now closed, and Devonna nailed it. Couldn't be happier!

The best customer service!! I emailed her on 3/28 the same day I needed a birthday cake for my nephews birthday and she delivered to La Canada. We had to cancel his birthday party because of the Coronavirus pandemic. I decided he still needs to have a cake of course! I didn't plan ahead though because of all the chaos going in. I ordered his gifts on Amazon and they did not arrive in time for his birthday. I wanted to make sure he had somewhat of a celebration for his 6th birthday. Butter bakery delivered !! Contactless delivery as well. She left it on the porch as requested by my sister. Delicious fresh cake! My 6 year nephew loved the cake. My 4 year old niece was so excited to sing happy birthday. We sang happy birthday to him via FaceTime. Sad day because he was expecting visitors and no one could come by. Butter bakery definitely improves his day!! read more

Devonna did an amazing job for my baby shower. The cake matched perfectly to the little pumpkin theme we described. She also did a wonderful job making us baby shaped sugar cookies. We got the strawberry flavor and it was fresh, moist and absolutely delicious. She personally delivered the cake to us the morning of which was incredibly convenient and threw in a white pumpkin which was the theme. Will be ordering from her for future events.

I recently moved away from my go-to bakery and am happy to say I have found my replacement with Butter Bakery! Devonna made a Black Forest cake for my dad's birthday and it was a hit! The chocolate cake was incredibly moist with a rich dark chocolate flavor and was well balanced by the frosting and filling without being overly sweet. Plus, it was gorgeous! I wasn't sure how her classic cake flavors would be decorated and it was gorgeous! We are all impressed by the height and how she went the extra mile with the design.

Couldn't tell you how their cakes are because we never got to that point. Initiated contact with plenty of time before event day which was mid week. I didn't find out all the pertinent information until after the weekend prior. This pretty much made what I wanted to do impossible. FYI if you are not getting a full batch of cup cakes, then you're stuck with whatever standard / special flavors they happen to already be making. I guess it was my fault for not being more insistent with questions early on in the conversation. They have a website, but it doesn't really tell you everything you need to know when you're trying to do something custom. read more

I am so excited that I found Butter Bakery! It was just about a week ago that I inquired about making a cake for my mom's birthday. My mom's favorite is German Chocolate but no one else loves coconut. So we came up with the idea of doing a regular chocolate cake and just putting some German chocolate frosting on the top. It was perfect!! I'm so happy with how it turned out and it was delicious!! Plus was delivered for free. For Christmas we spent $100 on a fancy cake from Goldbelly and this one was SO much better--and much less! Never again. Cant wait to try more things from Butter Bakery! read more

Devonna is a dream and we were so privileged to work with her for our son's second birthday! I called about a week in advance asking her to make him a cookie-themed cake, and she presented us with this gorgeous masterpiece! He absolutely loved it and had never seen so many cookies in his life. Her prices are really good for the amount of labor, detail, love, and art she puts into her work, and the cakes are easy to cut and do not fall apart easily. The cookies are all soft, and the cake is delicious. In addition to delivering the cake on a Sunday, she gave us some complimentary cookies and popcorn. We were blown away by her cake and treats! Look no further than Butter Bakery for your dessert needs. We will definitely be calling her again when we need another cake! read more

On top of the wonderful execution of flavor and texture, Butter Bakery's presentation is always top notch.

In a word, PERFECTION. I ordered a German chocolate cake for Dad's 75th; it's his favorite, so he's very discerning. Chef Devonna Banks' creation was a masterpiece! The cake was ginormous, gorgeously decorated, and generously frosted (some skimp on the coconut exterior, NOT HERE!). Everyone in the family declared it was the best cake they had ever eaten (sorry, Aunt Lou), and had TWO PIECES each. This is something I have never witnessed in the history of my family. Before eating, though, we all had to pose with the cake, because it was such a lovely presentation (and centerpiece for our meal). My father was over the moon, and has already called to let me know he is enjoying cake for breakfast (goes great with coffee, he reports). More about the cake: perfect fudgy frosting on top, thick, dreamy coconut/nut on the sides, and moist, perfectly-cooked dark chocolate cake inside. I am in awe of Chef Banks' talent and will definitely be reaching out to her for more bakery masterpieces in the future! (Did I mention the price is incredibly reasonable? Chef, I'd pay you twice as much for this stellar work.) read more

From the Business

Specialties

Butter Bakery desserts have a specialty taste and quality that is always homemade from scratch. Some of our most famous goodies are our delicious cookies with flavors such as, 'Crownie' or 'Brown Butter Toffee'. Butter Bakery is a small business operated by a local Pasadena resident. The bakery has been involved in many community events and provided treats for lunches and gatherings all around town.

History

Established in 2017.

The bakery began out of a sheer desire to continue the essence of homemade with love baked goods that we are losing to trends and gimmicks. We are looking forward to bringing smiles to many and satisfying those taste buds!!

Meet the Business Owner: Devonna B.

Butter Bakery came about from necessity for good old fashioned homemade desserts. From passion to product and now there’s a glimpse of what grandma used to make.

First, the good: the cinnamon roll was moist and fluffy all the way through. No dry cinnamon rolls here! The service was also very friendly. The not so good: my first bite, which somehow managed to not have much icing, gave me a clear taste of the dough. It reminded me a lot of canned biscuit dough. I prefer a thicker icing, this one was quite runny and very sweet without any nuance to the flavor. Also, I really wanted to try the peach cobbler cupcakes but they didn't have any cupcakes in stock at all, only a few cake slices. We went around noon, and I hoped they would have plenty of options around that time :/ Unfortunately I've had much better cinnamon rolls elsewhere in LA. It's still tasty because, well, it's a cinnamon roll... but not sure I'll be back unless it's to try the cake or cupcakes.

I am typically very picky about cupcakes and it was a very bummed out that sprinkles closed. I have tasted other cupcakes in the past and dots cupcakes actually hits the spot. They have a daily rotation of special selections as well as a standard flavor selection. I tried it out the Velvet, tiramisu, and coconut cupcakes. They are actually really good, and the quality and ratio between the frosting and cupcake itself was on point. The pricing is fair, considering the quality of the cupcakes. I called them on the phone ahead of time to verify inventory and the service was actually really good. The store is separated by two different lines one for the café and the other for the cupcakes. Make sure you line up in the right line for the best service. I will definitely return.

I was…read morein Pasadena so I went to this location but it's nice to know that have multiple locations around the city. The Pasadena location was nice and spacious and very clean and cute. They have a nice large parking space in the back as well. I went on a Sunday around 6:30 pm so it was pretty empty, which was nice. I think the bigger crowds are earlier in the day. They close at 7 pm so I just made it. Luckily they still had a few cupcakes left and plenty of the cakes left. I decided to get a slice of their old fashioned chocolate cake, and 4 cupcakes to go. I got a red velvet, a chocolate, a vanilla, and a mocha cupcake. Everything was delicious but I have to say that the old fashioned chocolate cake slice was my favorite. They give you a ginormous piece too which is nice when you have that craving. All the cakes were very moist and the buttercream was sweet but not crazy sweet which I really appreciated. Overall, it was a great experience. I can't wait to come back again and run some of their other cakes and cupcakes!

The Oreos were not even crushed well. These cupcakes completely tasted like store-bought chocolate cake, and store-bought frosting. It was very embarrassing to present these cupcakes to my guest.

The photos were absolutely gorgeous, and the cake made such a statement on the dessert table. The flavor? Incredible. Moist, rich, and perfectly balanced -- you could taste the quality in every bite. Guests kept coming back for seconds (and asking where we got it!). What really stood out was the peace of mind we had throughout the whole process. They truly cared about getting everything right, and it showed. If you're planning a special event and want a cake that tastes as amazing as it looks, this is the place to go...trust me!!

Bad communication & unorganized. I was searching for a bakery that is able to mimic the same Cookie Cake from the "big brand", Mrs. Field, but just make it better for my significant other's Birthday. I blindly called and said they are able to take on the task. Prior to proceeding, I asked for photos for reference to see if it would be up to standards, plus this is a custom order that has not been on her site or yelp that I can see for reference. Never got a response back via text the same day nor the next. The next two days, on the day of pick-up, I called again regarding a follow-up on the cookie cake and see how it would look like, so I can make any adjustments prior to delivery, and she said she can't... like what? She refused to send me images and asked to pay the invoice in advance when I have not seen what it looked like yet. While on the way to Perris Joint, I received the text that my order is ready. I arrived they mentioned it is not here yet, that I would wait for however long minutes. I was in a time-crunched that I needed at 12 pm, which the time I came. Since the person is hard to communicate with, I canceled. I'm always willing to support small businesses that I have been for years but support what I require, communication, and images of the cake that I asked for. Note: I believe this is a small "at-home" independent bakery. Pick up is at Perry's Joint in borderline, North Pasadena/Altadena. Perry's Joint shares the same building as the medical center, and they do not allow rear parking. Only street parking, which is somewhat hard to find. read more

So let me tell you my AMAZING experience with Butter Bakery. I called on the day of my sons birthday looking for chocolate chip cookies cause the kid doesn't like cake. A sweet lady answered the phone and I asked her if it was possible since it was so last minute. She said "Oh don't worry I'll bake some for you and have it ready in an hour". Ummmmm I was stoked to say the least and than we got creative and made him a specialized large cookie. And you wanna here the kicker???? She delivered it to the restaurant we were having his birthday dinner. She greeted me with the largest smile on her face that lighted up the room. Now let's talk about the cookies!!!! Sweet Jesus they were the best cookies we've had. They arrived warm and the presentation was superb! I think I've covered it all so don't look further!!!! read more
