    8th Birthday cake
    Willow B.

    Truly exquisite cakes and desserts! The absolute best in Austin and beyond, there is no substitute for Paloma. Her designs are detailed and perfect and her flavors are the best I have ever tasted! I don't understand the other reviews talking about the cake texture. The cake texture is PERFECT! Paloma uses nothing other than natural sugar and butter in her cakes. She has made cakes for us for over 6 years and we won't use anyone else for special occasions!

    Our wedding cake
    Jonathan O.

    Woohoo! As good as it gets! My wife (then fiance) and I attended our friends wedding in August. He had an incredible cake made by Paloma of a cheese wheel with a mouse sitting on top of it. The detail was fantastic and the cake was very cute. We decided then and there that she would make our wedding cake. Fast forward to March..... Our wedding cake was amazing! Paloma made our cake exactly how we wanted it. We had godzilla and mecha godzilla fighting on either side of the cake! The flavor was fantastic, the design was extraordinary and she was a joy to work with! If you have a wedding coming up PLEASE use her! Paloma's the best hands down. P.S. Our cake was featured on a wedding website this week. http://blog.weddingsunveiledaustin.com/this-weeks-top-5-wedding-links/

    Wedding cake

    I've tried to write this review several times and I just don't know what to say! Paloma is just the most amazing person/cake artist ever. Not only are her cakes delicious (white cake was amazing and the chocolate with a liquor filling... ahhhh), but they are gorgeous and so much more affordable compared to all the other boutique bakeries in town. She uses the freshest, most natural ingredients and it totally comes out in the flavor. I asked Paloma to make an additional cake for my wedding (groom's cake) last minute (less than 2 weeks before, I believe) and she did an awesome job. We did a chocolate fondant cake in the shape of our dog, Maggie. It looks just like her... it was definitely the talk of the wedding reception. It all came together so beautifully thanks to Paloma! Book Paloma before her name blows up all around Austin. It certainly won't be long now!

    I found Coco Paloma Desserts while looking for an Austin area cake baker for our wedding (we live in Houston). My now husband and I are foodies who love good dessert, so we knew were going to be most discerning about the cake and filling flavors/taste rather than overall appearance (we knew we wanted a naked cake). It just so happens that when we found Paloma, we managed to find a cake baker who not only knows how to make amazing cake, but is a true artist to boot. Paloma was the first cake baker that we did a tasting with. We had paid a little extra to taste a whole bunch of cake because we just couldn't decide on what we wanted and everything sounded so good! We sampled 8 different cake flavors along with 7 fillings and knew from the first bite of Valrhona Chocolate cake that we had found our cake baker! In addition to the wedding cake, we also knew we wanted to do some kind of gluten free cake on the side (my maid of honor is allergic, while my 3 other bridesmaids are sensitive), as well as macarons. Worth noting - I was really impressed with Paloma's macaron knowledge (I'm half French and a bit macaron obsessed), and appreciated how her eyes lit up as we discussed different macaron bakers and recipes. After the tasting (and actually, taking the cake and filling samples home because we still weren't sure sure what to choose as everything was so good), we settled on 3 flavors for our main 4-tier cake - Valrhona Chocolate cake with Nutella buttercream, Red Velvet with Cream Cheese, and Earl Grey cake with Mascarpone Buttercream. Additionally, we ordered 2 macaron flavors, Raspberry and Lemon Lavender. For the gluten free cake - we opted for the gluten free Valrhona Chocolate Cake with Espresso buttercream...and here is where the artistry comes in. We really had no thoughts on this additional cake, but as I was perusing Paloma's Instagram, my jaw dropped when I laid eyes upon an A&M ring cake. My husband is a very devoted Aggie graduate, and happens to really like his ring. For me - it was a gorgeous gold, which was one of our wedding colors, so it ticked that box for me (and it was stunning). I managed to keep the groom's cake as a secret and my husband was so excited when he saw it on our wedding day (as were his Aggie relatives, friends, and well - even our non-Aggie friends and relatives)! The added bonus was that the gluten free cake was so delicious and so moist, no one even knew it was gluten free. It was INCREDIBLE! Last, but not least, I decided about a month before the wedding that I really wanted to have some watercolor inspired sugar cookies as favors for our guests, because the Aggie ring cake wasn't labor intensive enough or anything like that ;). Thankfully, Paloma was game and designed some really beautiful cookies for us. They also were the really soft delicious kind of sugar cookies, which my husband and I both really enjoy. In short, Paloma blew it out of the park with our wedding - 2 gorgeous cakes (one gluten free), beautiful and tasty macarons and watercolor cookies (both with gold touches). Paloma was truly delightful to work with, and we felt like we got so much deliciousness for what we paid. Thank you so much Paloma! We will definitely be coming back for more :).

    Texas State Graduation- Dance Education Major!
    Maria T.

    These cakes not only look amazing but they taste even better! I ordered a cake in a cap design for my graduation and added the silhouette of a dancer (dance major) and she made it look better than I could have imagined! The cake itself was moist and not too sweet. My family who are not cake/sweets people ate the whole thing! The ingredients are extremely fresh and make you feel less guilty about enjoying a treat :) I will definitely use Paloma for future events (my Step dad has already requested her for his birthday cake!) The payment process was super easy and secure and she delivered the cake to the restaurant, which made life so much easier for me! I NEVER write reviews but this place deserves it!

    I live in HOUSTON, TX!

    UNRELIABLE! I was scheduled to meet with Paloma Aug 22,2015 at 1pm. This was confirmed twice via email and once via phone. Cancelled on me that Thursday, Aug 20,2015. Yes, she asked to reschedule for the following Saturday, but I live in HOUSTON, TX! Last minute cancellation, wasn't able to book anyone other bakery on such LATE NOTICE. If Paloma isn't reliable before your wedding, I wouldn't expect anything different on your wedding day!

    The cello cake!
    Maxine O.

    I contacted Paloma to make a cake for my mom's birthday celebration. It was a request for a cake in the shape of a cello. She was timely in her responses and very professional. Since I live in Houston, I spoke on the phone with her and emailed her about the cakes, which worked out well. The cello cake was truly amazing! She had painted the cake with such beauty, it looked like real wood. Her attention to the other details on the cello cake was superb as well. There are many components to a cello, and she constructed each detail masterfully. Everyone at the party did a double-take at the cake since they didn't think it was a cake! Her work on this cello cake was stunning and well worth the money. My mom loved it! The guests really enjoyed the cakes as well. Everyone asked where I got the cakes made, and I happily recommended Coco Paloma Desserts. I hope she gets some business from the party-goers! We had a smaller second cake that had a small cello detail on it, which was fantastic as well. She made a miniature 3D cello to top this smaller cake, and this cake was a perfect complement to the larger cello cake. The cake flavors were very tasty! The cello cake was a tiramisu inspired cake, and was very delicious. The one thing I would say is that I wish the cake was soaked with more of the espresso-kahlua mixture because it was really good and I would've loved more of that flavor. The smaller cake was a green tea cake with almond butter cream and a layer of apricot jam, which was fantastic. Both cakes tasted wonderful and looked amazing! Paloma is a true master and artist!

    Jackie F.

    Working with Paloma is like working with an artist. I explained what I was looking for and she sketched the concept right in front of me, adding in extra details that I didn't even think of. I chose white cake with tiramisu filling, that was to die for! All my guests were raving about it. I had gone to other tastings that tasted like processed sugar. Paloma's tasted much more natural and all made from scratch. I surely thought the cost sound be much more, but to my surprise it was the same rate as Sweet Treats, and others. plus- on our one year anniversary she will make a top tier fresh so we didn't have to save any.

    Mayra P.

    After reading the great reviews on Yelp, we decided to choose Coco Paloma for our wedding cake. I gave Paloma a picture of what I wanted and told her what flowers we were using and she created the perfect masterpiece, it was EXACTLY what we wanted. My husband had always told me he didn't like red velvet cake, but that's the flavor he chose and we had a lot of compliments on it. I can't wait for our 1 year anniversary to taste it again.

I was able to place my order and pay with Apple Pay. I ordered the Taiyaki Sundae with black sesame and ube swirl soft serve served in a fish shaped mochi Belgian style waffle with Oreo dust on top. You can customize your sundae with filling like organic red sweet beans, Nutella or custard and toppings like Oreo dust, fruity pebbles or rainbow sprinkles. I ate this on site and the nutty black sesame balanced the sweet ube perfectly, and the Oreo topping added the best crunch. They had a variety of mochi donut flavors. Lucky for me, nothing was sold out today. I ordered the Oreo ube mochi donut and ube milk tea to-go. I ate the mochi donut later that day and it was probably my least favorite item from my order. It had the chewy mochi texture however I didn't get enough of the rich ube flavor. It had somewhat of a bitter aftertaste and the Oreo overpowered the ube. I drank the ube milk tea the next day and it was creamy, smooth, and not overly sweet. I really enjoyed the flavor profile of the beverage and would order it again. Overall, enjoyed my selections and will be back to try more dessert options and flavors from one of the most unique Asian dessert spots in Austin!

I asked for a recommendation as a first time and was told I have to try the original to start. Service seemed friendly but felt a little rushed for me to hurry up. Cheesecake Biscotti - from my small slice, I was impressed. It's an airy cookie that's baked to a crispy finish. The exterior is crispy but the inside is fluffy, it's a fun texture that simply feels remarkable. Plus the overall cheesecake flavor is a delightful sweetness. Matcha Cheesecake - I was impressed with the softness. The small sample was so light yet ready to fall from the toothpick at any moment. It was just so delicate. Matcha was present though it's hard to say how strong from a quick sample so I'll reserve on that. Original Cheesecake - now for the real experience, it's no exaggeration to say that this quite literally melts in your mouth. It's almost like the cake simply dissolves, leaving a cheesecake flavor behind. Super fluffy, light, and airy, the cheesecake is delicate and when you eat it, your taste buds light up as if a spotlight is emphasizing the presentation. Fantastic end to any meal as well, especially because it's not heavy at all.
