Walking through the doors is nostalgic invoking your own walk through history. If you've never been you won't be disappointed and begin your own experiences. Grab a box with one of everything and you still will have plenty more to sample. Ive traveled through many states and places specializing in this sweet pastries but never find anything as delicious. The staff is very friendly eager to help and always smiling. Even the owner will be there in the front lines assisting. Like the olden days. You can even get a cup of coffee and talk story. They also have a few grocery items in case you need to grab milk, eggs and a soda. The ambiance is just down home. Maybe I'll see you there grabbing your favorite piece of "pan dulce". Yes, they are "Special".

They have quite a selection of freshly made items. I would suggest getting there early if you are looking for something specific as they did have several empty trays. Everything we ordered was delicious as usual. I did not see or get to try any barbacoa or tamales, but maybe next time. This place has a history and is an important part of San Benito. If you're ever in the area, put it on your list of places to visit.

Everybody I spoke to over the phone and in person while picking up my cakes was VERY polite, attentive and nice. The cakes themselves (the execution) exceeded my expectations, both of my babies received exactly what they were asking for and they were blown away!:) As far as the flavor, my daughter is eating it right now saying, "OH MY GOD, it's too yami":) my husband who is not a cake eater admitted that both cakes were way better than he expected. For my taste the flavor and texture were just ok, but I have to admit that I grew up eating decadent gourmet cakes and it's really hard to impress me with cake flavor these days. Overall it was an amazing experience! And we highly recommend this place if you are in a mood for some beautiful sweet stuff:) THANKS to everyone from Monique's Cake Company!

I would definitely recommend Ms Miranda's cake shop to anyone in the area that wants more than just a simple cake but a cake that brings joy as well as flavor. Plus you receive a small box of pan de polvo with each order! Sad that when I did drop in to order I wasn't offered a sampler tasting but oh, well (this is the only reason I gave 4 instead of 5 stars). I do wish they would have done so but happy with the last minute order.

The establishment itself is small with limited indoor seating, but they do have a few outdoor spots if you want to sit and enjoy your treats. Parking was decent depending on the time of day, though it can get tricky because of the busy restaurant next door. As for the ice cream and cookies--they were very good and absolutely massive. Honestly, sharing is probably the way to go!

Great variety for the cookie icecream sandwiches. A bonus is they have gluten free cookies for those with gluten issues. The cookies were thinner and smaller which was the only downer. Price wise: it's about $10 a cookie sandwich. That adds up quickly to a family. Shilled out over $30 for 3 sandwiches. That's equivalent to 5 gallons of icecream at the grocery store. Quite expensive and overly sweet. We enjoyed the novelty but no one wanted to come back.
