I found this place thru my boss. And I decided to give it a try and see if its worth it. Ordering was real simple I went into the shop. Clean well maintained. And cake models thru out and they were awesome looking. I got a list of the size and prices and adding on anything is an extra charge. I got an 8" round chocolate cake with chocolate mousse filling for my sons 4th birthday. I showed them the Cake I wanted on my phone and to be honest when I picked it up I wasn't expecting it to be that great looking. But to my surprise with the risk I took the cake was amazing from the inside out! Perfectly decorated. Tasted great. I was very impressed. They let you pay half up front and the rest on day of pick up. I paid 75. A little pricey. But worth it. My cake fed 20 people. And everyone loved it. Overall love this shop and will be reccomending them to anyone. read more

I will NEVER order a cake from here again. Ive ordered cakes from here in the past. And so I had ordered my wedding cake for November 8th to be delivered. I had given all the information where, what time, who to contact. EVERYTHING. There should have been no problems well the day comes and my cake never shows up. The coordinator of the restaurant can not find the cake it was never delivered. Even my florist said she had called endless times and there was never a response. We ended up having to pay for another cake thankfully the restaurant made one in time. I call the shop the day after to get to the bottom of it. they said the cake was delivered and they had a confirmation and come to find out the cake was delivered to the bell desk? I was never notified that the cake was delivered and where to. EVEN THOUGH THERE WAS INSTRUCTIONS TO BE DELIVERED TO NAPA ROSE NOT THE HOTEL. I even gave the shop the name and phone number/email of the restaurant coordinator. The next day I called the bell desk to see if the cake was there and they said yes it's here it was delivered yesterday but was not properly labeled for they did not know where to deliver. After back and forths the employee talked to the owner and said that would contact me. It has been a week and she has not contacted me once! read more

It looked amazing and tasted amazing. We are already planning to get all our birthday cakes from here for now on. Lol. We can't wait! read more

My husband and I simply cannot say enough wonderful things about Creative Cakes. After enjoying a few of their cakes at various parties over the years, we knew that they had the most delicious and yes, creative cakes around. We were confident that we would love the way our cake would taste, but we had no idea just how amazing our whole experience for our wedding cake was going to be. From the very first tasting, we were treated like family. The lovely owners even came out to join their competent and enthusiastic staff in chatting with us and helping us decide on our favorite flavors - the lemon cake with bavarian cream and raspberry filling was my favorite; carrot cake with cream cheese icing my husband's. We had a vision for what we wanted our cake to look like, but it was pretty vague and really didn't give them too much to work with. Thanks to their artistry, professionalism, and experience, we ended up with a wedding cake that was truly a masterpiece. I never realized that the wedding cake could end up being such a talking point, but our family and friends could not get over how beautifully it fit our personalities and the overall theme of our wedding, which was classic elegance. Not only was the cake beautiful, but it tasted even better than we remembered, and even as the bride, I was able to find time to enjoy two pieces. We are still so thrilled with the experience we had with Creative Cakes and would be honored to recommend them to anyone looking for a personalized, professional, and all around memorable experience. We certainly look forward to making Creative Cakes a part of our many special occasions throughout our family's future. read more

Creative Cakes - My Wedding Cake from Creative Cakes June 7, 2014 French Estate - Bakeries Near Me - Anaheim, California

In preparation for a family 60th anniversary celebration it was my responsibility to take care of ordering the cake. I live out of state so I handled the entire transaction over the phone. Cheryl of Creative Cakes had to decipher the description I was giving her over the phone as I was referring to several different photos on their website. The cakes arrived just exactly as I envisioned them. Creative Cakes also made a special cake topper with the number 60 on it for us which was perfect. The cakes were delivered on time and we're the best tasting cakes ever! We chose carrot cake with cream cheese filling for the two smaller cakes and the lemon with bavarian cream and jam for the largest cake. Excellent! read more

I have used Creative Cakes for numerous occasions, including my wedding. Today, I called to inquire about a change to my order and I know they have not started it yet because it is such a small cake (I have made changes in less time in the past that were up-charges, so obviously they worked to make it work). I am assuming that because my change is not an up-charge is the reason the person on the phone didn't give me the usual response of "let me ask and see what they can do." She simply said no, no changes. I used to go more out of my way to order cakes here because they are good cakes, consistent flavor and very good artwork, and they always had good customer service in the past. With their price point on the higher side, considering the limited flavor offerings, I don't know if I will order more cakes here in the future.

Creative Cakes catered our wedding cake for over 300 guests. They were incredibly friendly and a pleasure to work with. They had excellent communication and answered all of our questions. We met with Cheryl and had a cake tasting (we picked the lemon cake with cream cheese frosting and fresh strawberry filling, dddddelicious!!!!) Cheryl was very patient with us as we designed the cake and brought to life our vision. The cake was beautiful and delicious. Everyone of our guests commented on how they had never had a wedding cake that good! I would highly recommend hiring Creative Cakes for your events! read more

They didn't return your call 'cause they're sooo dam busy ! ! ! That's what happens when you are the best in the OC. I have had numerous custom cakes made through them. I took a Golf score card in and wanted a 3d cake of the 6th hole to reward an eagle shot by my friend. It was amazing! 4th of July Block Party Cake , had everyone with there hands over thier hearts saying the pledge of alliegents to the CAKE ! Daughters B-Day Barbie Cake People still talk about it. Daughters Graduation Cake looked exactly like we imagined I learned that you place your order 1 week in advance they took great care in decorating. If you go in there last minute and order a custom cake they do their best to try depending on the work load. So the guy that complained about average service probably is one of those guys that buy valentine flowers from the street vender last minute ,One block from the house. read more

Called with a last minute request for a gender reveal cake. I had been turned down by multiple establishments in LA and OC before calling Creative Cakes. They were SUPER helpful over the phone and worked with my pregnant family member to orchestrate the surprise reveal. Pricing was very reasonable with lots of different flavors and fillings to choose from. They put together a whimsical and very cute design that wasn't too "cutesy" and looked elegant. The best part?? I was sincerely worried about how the cake would taste. Not too sweet, not too bland, not too dry, blah blah blah. WORRY NOT. OH MY GOODNESS - it was absolutely one of the BEST cakes I've ever had. If not, THE best. And in my line of work, I've had a LOT over the years!! Even my parents and boyfriend, who are not big dessert fans, gobbled that thing up. It didn't taste processed at all - the sweetness was just right, the frosting to cake ratio was perfect....ah, it was heaven. The pounds I gained from eating multiple slices over the past few days were SO WORTH IT. Now I know whom to go in the OC area for special occasion cakes. This team knows what they're doing and does a GREAT job. You have a new dedicated fan, Creative Cakes! read more

We ordered a cake a year ago for our wedding...I didn't think much about it falling apart at the time, until I read a lot of similar reviews. Maybe the weather was an issue because the cake sat out for a few minutes before we cut it-whatever. No big deal. When we went to pick up our one year anniversary cake yesterday my wife decided to call to make sure it was ready. She was placed on hold-or technically the phone was put down as the employee helped a customer in store-and then the phone was never picked back up. We literally drove 18 minutes to the store and as we walked in the phone was finally hung up...not even answered! Someone eventually came out and handed us our cake. At least it was ready. Or so we thought. The next day when we cut into our cake it was completely wrong (and falling apart as well). We ordered a lemon cake and got some chocolate marble cake. Lemon cake is pretty much the only cake I even like, so this was a disappointment. Needless to say it caused a huge riff in our marriage. Ok that last part was a joke, much like the customer service we just experienced. read more

Great cakes, but there is the rude lady in charge you have to get over. I think her name is Cheryl and seems to be the ring leader of the organization. She is never friendly. If you are in the business or providing a service, you should act that way. This type of business is all about relationship. We have ordered three cakes from Creative Cakes, but may be the last because of Cheryl. read more

Two is for my Two Cents...My family has been getting their cakes from here for many years...I finally needed to say something. For some reason it seems like we make our order & then when the cake is dropped off, it's nothing like we talked about. For example, my wedding cake had no diamonds like we discussed, they don't do real flowers on cakes, which was difficult, they also didn't do the design exactly like the cake displayed in the front of their store and the cake had no Oreos inside like requested. I mean really, it seems like the person in the back isn't reading the notes correctly or the communication is completely off. I am speaking for my family since they don't have a yelp account. We really want to keep your business, please over communicate. A cake these days is always talked about... read more

My family has ordered cakes from Creative Cakes for quite sometime. I am sad to report that my wedding cake was the only disappointment of my wedding day. Of my 3 layers, 2 had the incorrect filling 1 layer was supposed to have strawberry cream and fresh strawberries, but instead had only strawberry cream and the other layer was supposed to be marble with chocolate mousse and instead was white cake with banana mousse. I was so disappointed mainly because the cake was something my dad and husband were looking forward to. We went through Creative Cakes because we got married at the Summit House and it was one of 2 choices, obviously the wrong one. read more

As part of a wedding package we got at the Turnip Rose Promenade and Garden, my husband and I got a free wedding cake. We had two bakeries to choose from and hands down we loved everything about Creative cakes. Their cake flavors and fillings were amazing and their cake decorations looked stunning. We ended up with a 4 layered cake with square tiers. The cake tasted and looked like what I wanted it to be. Our guests at the wedding were impressed with the cake too! I definitely recommend Creative cakes for any wedding occasion! read more

We ordered our wedding cake for our big day on December 1, 2017. The cake was fabulous! The flavors, carrot, lemon & chocolate where such a big hit. There was not a piece left. Everyone raved about the stunning three-layer cake. Great people to work with! read more

It pains me to admit this, but the cake iteself just wasn't that good. Someone gave me a Rockwell's cake for my wedding shower, and I was on 7th heaven. I mean, this place charges over $6 a slice. I felt like the Ace of Cakes himself made this cake. I'm not kidding, every wedding venue recommends Rockwell's. The cake itself was beautiful and a masterpiece- it actually hurt to cut into the cake. But the cake was dry and not the best tasting. Too bad, because I had high expectations for it. read more

Not a place a would order from again. There was so much frosting and filling it over powered what little cake there was. The frosting started to melt by the time I got home - which was all of 10 mins from the shop. The Shoe decoration on top of the cake was so heavy that it tipped over and ruined the Happy Birthday on top of the cake. read more

Very very bad service. We order a $400 cake it was suppose to be a custom cake with a specific design and once it was delivered came the big disappointment. It didn't look anything like the design we had requested. 2nd the cake was suppose to have fresh strawberries and they tasted old not fresh. We saved the lhe bottom layer and ask for a refund. The lady Cheryl said there was nothing wrong with the cake refused to give back our money. Please please do not order your cake for your special event cuz they don't care once they get your money your done. Poor quality. Poor customer service read more

This establishment used to be terrific at creating cakes and treating customers with high regard and respect. They used to strive for a 100% satisfaction rating. A new owner has taken over the business, and it is on it's way downhill. The service inside the store is cold and unprofessional. You'd think by spending $250-500 on a small cake they would treat you kindly and act like they want your business. Well, that is not the case. The new owner and their staff are not customer oriented, and unfortunately, they do not care about upholding the reputation that this business once had. They lack customer service skills, are unprofessional, and could care less about their patrons. I'd look elsewhere for purchasing a cake, this place is no longer great, as it once was. read more

Just got home from picking up a 50th Birthday Cake. Custom ordered over a month ago. Two-tiered, both square, black and white - NOTHING FANCY. We had the lady write out our order when we were there - drew a picture and everything - exactly how we wanted it. We called yesterday to make sure it would be ready to be picked up today, they said it was already ready. We called again this morning just to be sure, and they say it won't be ready until at least 2pm. Okay, no problem. We go to pick it up, and it's immediately and obviously wrong. The bottom tier was supposed to be a Bottom diamond pattern(which it said in plain English on the order form) and it had no black, but a QUILTED(aka let's run a cutter on the cake) pattern. This quilted pattern didn't even go all around the tier, just on the sides, not the top. Mind you, the quilted pattern was on the buttercream(what? You can't do quilted patterns on buttercream, only on fondant.) and the buttercream was cracking on the top of the tier. We tell them that it is wrong, and pretty, but NOT at all what we ordered. We continually said we were really disappointed, and for spending $320 on a SPECIALTY cake, we expected it to be perfect(or at least what we asked for). They mumble sorry, offer to put black, but that it would "look weird", offer to put roses on the sides(Uh, it's a modern style cake, roses?), say it still looks pretty, and go get our order form. There is, MAGICALLY, in parenthesis, "(quilted)" written next to "Black Diamond Design" on the order form. The woman(not older, younger brunette) says it isn't her writing, and she was the one to take our order. The older woman says she's sorry again, we repeat we are really disappointed, but the party is tonight and we cannot wait. She brings the cake out to the car and says, "We will give you a discount on your next cake." ....LIKE I'LL BE BUYING ANOTHER ONE WHEN YOU CAN'T EVEN GET THE SIMPLEST, LACKLUSTER CAKE RIGHT. It seemed as if they were ushering us out of there as fast as possible as not to let other customers hear our complaints. We get back home, pull out our copy of the receipt (on transfer paper), and there IS NO "(quilted)" on our copy. Someone wrote that in post-order. We call, again say that the cake is not right, and actually even more wrong than we thought, and that someone had written in the "(quilted)" part. They apologize. Cheryl gets on the phone, continues to apologize. The number on the top has been smashed and is visible pressed together to try and hold it's shape - it's actually a different color completely, probably repainted. All she did was apologize. Blame the person who took the order, and "well...". We are so disappointed - so, so disappointed. We actually have a baker in the family, and he says that he is SHOCKED that they didn't refund a portion of the payment, and that it seemed that they did it last-minute. We obviously haven't opened the cake up, but I wouldn't be shocked to find the inside wasn't what we ordered. The customer service here is DESPICABLE. I am seriously disgusted, after hearing rave reviews of the beautiful cakes. I cannot believe the audacity of the owner/manager/whoever to not offer a partial refund when it looks nothing like what we ordered/drew out. Overall, I will NEVER recommend or go back to Creative Cakes. I cannot imagine ordering a wedding cake and having it come back anything less than what I ordered. Customer service? Worse than lacking. Funny, how the bottom of the receipt says "No Changes", since you made changes on our cake after we ordered it. If at anytime the description became unclear - especially for a $300+ cake - I would have expected a phone call asking the question that needed to be answered instead of defaulting to the easier - no doubt cheaper - design. ABSOLUTELY, UNDENIABLY DISAPPOINTED. Update: Just stumbled upon this review and noticed that the owner responded to all bad reviews recently, and never responded to mine. Laughable. This place is the biggest joke. read more

I spent upwards of 200 dollars on a cake for my daughter's first birthday. It was beautiful, crush from finding nemo, however there were complaints from my family that the cake itself tasted like corn bread and was dry and disgusting. :( read more

WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE EVER!!! I wrote a review on Rockwell 2 years ago and do not see it posted! I was so disappointed with this place that I have to write another one! My wedding venue listed Rockwell as their only cake vendor so I had no choice but to go with them. When we first went for the tasting, they had no clue we were scheduled to come in and made us feel very rushed to make a decision on the flavors, design, etc when our wedding was still 2 months away. As the wedding approached, they never contacted me to confirm the choices we had already felt rushed to decide on. Then when I sent pictures and emails detailing the cake, they never told me they couldn't make the design I wanted. I don't know where they come off changing their name to include 'Creative Cakes' because they cannot do anything creative. The lady I worked with was extremely rude, not helpful, and seemed like she was unhappy with her job. Her response at one point was 'Do you know how many brides I work with?' In the end, the cake tasted okay but I was completely dissatisfied with the design - my cake looked lopsided. The worst part about this experience is that I am in the wedding business and used to have Rockwell listed as a vendor - NO MORE, they have been removed from our list and I have spread the word... read more

Here's an update to my update: Okay, the wedding happen (11-01-2008) and the cake was awesome-except for three things. Point 1: (And some other married peeps can back this up) Not everyone is going to eat cake. We had 260 people show up, and we ordered a 4-tiered cake, plus a sheet cake at the bakery's advice and only the sheet cake and the last (lower) tier were served. Of our 260 guests, a handful left after dinner and more than half of our guests didn't like cake. The bakery recommended ordering for 25% less, but I insist that you order for only 50% of your guests and save the cash. Point 2: We ordered different flavors for each tier. We were supposed to be cutting into a red velvet cake, but instead we cut into lemon cake. The order was wrong, yet again. We were whispering through our teeth while cutting the cake and smiling, trying to hold back the questionable looks on our faces. If you decide to go with them for your cake, make sure you get a clean, clear invoice indicating your order. Not one like ours that was marked up 10 different ways. We verified the order 3 days before and it was still wrong. Point 3: And this may have been partially the flower shop next door's fault. There is a display cake very similar to our cake except with white chocolate curls. We wanted the same cake and the same floral arrangement-only with roses. Instead we get roses sticking to the side of the cake in a odd zig-zag order going down one side of the cake. Again, everyone thought it was beautiful, but my husband and I knew it was wrong. The bakery made a delicious cake that we enjoyed the days following the wedding. But it was not the cake I had hoped for our wedding. A disappointment, especially since we both had such great customer service in leading up to the wedding. And we must give them kudos for having them place the cake toppers on the cake for us. Again, Cheryl and Maureen were great to work with, but the end result did not live up to our expectations. read more

My husband and I our ordered our wedding cake from Creative Cakes by Rockwell's, and though we thought it was pricey, we also thought it was worth it. We tried several other bakeries and Rockwell's had the best flavor. I enjoy baking and I felt that all the other cakes we sampled, I could have made myself, or done better myself. I had my own florist decorate the cake with fresh flowers and it was beautiful. I didn't have any delivery or service problems, I'm actually surprised to read other people's reviews. The one thing that I recommend is order less that you really need, because we anticipated 200 people at our reception and ordered a cake for 170 and we had 2 complete tiers left at the end. read more

I originally heard great things about Creative so I decided to give them a try considering I plan many professional & personal events that I need desserts for. After a bad 1st experience I should have learned my lesson however I did not & used them again only to get the wrong cake that was delivered late by a rude gentlemen who turned out to be the owner. After spending a good amount of money both times I thought they would make things right considering both mistakes were the wrong cakes & ridiculously late deliveries which effected my events. After complaining to the owner I was never apologized to nor given an option to make things better. I could not believe the rude attitude & disrespect by both owners. Never again. read more

My wedding cake was from Rockwell's since most of the major hotels include a wedding cake. I would just say it was just okay. The cake looked fabulous, but it was some what dry. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't great. Since it was my wedding day I expected GREAT! Other than that they were very professional. The staff was very helpful during our cake tasting. They are located right next to the Orange Circle on Katella. I would look around first before settling down with Rockwell. read more

I had my wedding cake made by Creative Cakes years ago. I sort of had to, they had an arranagement with the Westin at the time, which is where I got married. The cake was good (not over the top good, but nice). I over ordered (took 2 tiers home...which my family very gladly polished off the very next day)...and i didn't have any memories of poor service so i readily recommended them to my sister, whose wedding is coming up this year. She went over there to sample some cake and in general was quite turned off by their attitude, service and unwillingness to be "creative". My sister wanted to try something different out and use flavors that were more exotic (rose essence, saffron...)...but were reluctant to go there. I even called to follow up with some questions and no one took my name or phone, they asked me to call back in 10 mins. Lame. lame lame...i did call in 10 mins, but another baker...because they just didn't seem interested in business. Anynow we are trying someone else, so i'll post a review once the wedding is over. This other place looks promising and the owner is uber sweet and helpful and so fun to work with. read more
