Stopped by The Family Bakery & Cafe for some cake slices and cake pops to satisfy our sweet tooth…read morecravings. As usual, The Family Bakery & Cafe does not disappoint. We visited on a Thursday late afternoon and there were some customers in the shop. Most of their pastries, cake slices and sweets were gone and sold however they still had a good selection of flavors left for purchase. Our usual red velvet cake pops and chocolate cake pops were still available for purchase as well as the strawberry cake slice, chocolate mousse cake slice and mocha cake slice. The only thing missing was the chocolate chip cookies and chocolate cupcakes as those were already gone by the time we arrived. It's ok as more reason for us to come back. Thank you to the sweet young lady that helped us with our sweets and treats.

I've now visited Erik's Sweet Creations twice, and both visits have been such a treat! This bakery…read moreis so clean, cute, and beautifully presented, and every time I walk in, I find myself admiring the gorgeous selection of pastries and desserts. I'm especially in love with their mousse desserts! During my most recent visit, I tried the Banana and Coffee Bean, and they were both phenomenal. Each one had a delicate, crunchy outer shell with an incredibly soft, creamy, and airy mousse filling inside. The Banana had a fresh banana purée-like filling that added a nice fruity flavor, while the Coffee Bean had a delicious mocha-like center. Beyond tasting amazing, both desserts were absolutely beautiful and almost too pretty to eat! My only wish is that they had a little bit of cake incorporated into them for some additional texture, but that certainly didn't stop me from enjoying them. They also have a great variety of cakes, cookies, macarons, éclairs, and croissants. Everything looked absolutely stunning and heavenly. I could easily spend way too much time here trying to decide what to take home! I also appreciated that the prices were very reasonable, and the staff was polite, welcoming, and helpful. My sister and I actually discovered this spot together while I was visiting her, and it has quickly become one of her new favorites! I'll definitely be back to try more of their beautiful creations.

I recently tried Erik's Sweet Creation, and I honestly don't understand the hype…read more Aesthetically, the pastries are gorgeous. Presentation wise, they're a 5/5. The staff was also very friendly and provided great service. Unfortunately, the pastries themselves were a major disappointment. Being generous, I'd rate the taste a 1/5 and the value a 0/5. About 90% of what I had was just cream filling with very little flavor. They looked incredible but tasted bland and one-dimensional. For the prices they charge, I expected much more. What makes it even harder to justify is that they're priced similarly to Artelice, which not only delivers on presentation but also on taste. In my opinion, Artelice is in a completely different league. If you're nearby and need a one time gift for someone you'll probably never buy pastries for again, sure, these might impress visually. But if you're buying for yourself or for people whose opinion you'll actually hear again, this is a hard pass. Do yourself a favor and drive the extra 10 minutes to Artelice. You'll get pastries that are just as beautiful and significantly more delicious. I left genuinely disappointed and won't be returning. One star is for the aesthetics, and the other two stars are for the friendly service. The pastries themselves simply didn't live up to their appearance.

Deanna did a great job executing my vision based on my requests. I had asked for the cake to be light, with a strawberry and whipped cream filling (not too sweet since A) my son has never had cake before and B) We are Asian lol) and it was a complete hit! There was literally no leftovers. Minus 1 star only because while I found it convenient to be able to communicate via email, it took quite a while for responses. At one point as the party date was getting closer, I got stressed thinking that I may need to start over in finding a baker to make this custom cake. They are a small family business, however, so I do understand and will likely order from them again but will do so in advance.

I found this bakery through Yelp because I was looking for a custom birthday cake for my…read moregranddaughter's 3rd birthday party. I contacted the baker about a Blippi and Meekah-themed 6-inch cake. The quote was $145 for the cake plus $25 for an edible image, for a $170 total before the amount later identified as tax. Free pickup was offered. I was dealing with several important things at the time and did not respond to the initial quote immediately, but I prepared my confirmation on September 12, the date given to decide and contacted the baker on September 13 to confirm the order. She accepted the order and provided payment instructions. I do not use Zelle or Venmo, but I have Cash App and was prepared to either pay cash in full in person or the deposit that way. Before sending the deposit, I asked one simple question: why was the total $186.63, including $16.63 in tax, when the quoted cake and edible image totaled $170? I was simply asking for clarification before paying. I asked because my understanding of California Department of Tax and Fee Administration guidance is that a whole cake sold to go is generally not subject to sales tax. I wanted to understand the basis for the additional charge before making my payment. I was not refusing to pay; I was asking for clarification. Instead of answering the question, the baker abruptly canceled my order. I attempted to call to discuss it directly, but was sent to her voicemail mailbox which was full and I could not leave a message. Afterward, she explained that she had become uneasy about the order and said she was canceling for the best. ‍ She also characterized my statement that I would accurately review my experience on Yelp as a threat of a bad review, which is not something I would do. I would never threaten anyone. I was explaining that I would give an honest account of my actual customer experience which is what Yelp is all about. What disappointed me most was that the order had been accepted and confirmed, yet asking a question about a charge resulted in the order being canceled rather than the charge being explained. I am a disabled grandmother and was trying to arrange a special birthday cake for my granddaughter's party. I would have preferred a simple answer to my question and a completed order. Based on my experience, I would not order from this business again. but instead I will go to back ordering from Nothin Bundt or Susies Cakes and just order the toppers online, that way I know what I am getting with no hidden fees.

The golden vanilla cake is unique and really delicious! Moist, not too sweet, and the whole wheat flour used in the cake batter lends a nice nutty flavor. Unfortunately, our lavender frosting was grainy. That said, it's still pretty good flavor wise, though I personally would've loved an even stronger lavender flavor. The top layer had a little too much frosting for my taste, but the bottom layer had a much better cake to frosting ratio. The leftovers have "aged" well in the fridge and I arguably have enjoyed it more as time has gone on. We also got a couple of gluten free cupcakes for my mom and she enjoyed them a lot! Really wonderful to have so many gluten free and regular options all in one place. The owners reached out after my dad provided feedback and seem really lovely! Overall, I would definitely go back and try them again.
