I wanted to support an Alameda business for a recent event and came across Doodlecakes online. Rebekah was amazing throughout the process answering questions I had, keeping me updated on various flavors that were coming up, etc. The variety of cupcake flavors was awesome! The event guests had fun choosing what flavors they were going to eat and raved about the taste. I think my two favorites were the cookies and cream cupcake and the biscoff cookie cupcake. Highly recommend for any events you're hosting (they have regular cupcakes, mini cupcakes, cakes, etc.). read more

Awesome custom cupcake and cake shop right here in Alameda. Doodlecakes definitely delivers on its mouthwatering treats. I especially love their mini cupcake platter that gives you the chance to sample all of the flavors they offer each week. They seem to change their menu often with the different creations such as Taro one week and maybe Strawberry Crunch the next. The owners are very friendly and always greet you with a smile. They have a fair amount of Gluten Free options as well and are just as delicious. A place worth checking out and 4.7 stars. read more

It was okay... I wish there were more options because the cupcake windows looked a little empty but the standard cupcakes were tasty. They do have vegan options and gluten free but they aren't sweet enough to be a cupcake but that's expected if you trying to be healthy. We didn't know that some were vegan and some were gluten free so we got 2 by accident. It's in a cute little location and the vibe is pretty standard just a small shop, the service was decent. I think it's like 4.50$ per CC. read more

My new obsession! I've been wanting to stop by to try their vegan cupcakes. I came by today (Friday, Valentine's day) and they also had some special valentine's day treats! It is cute and welcoming inside and the person working was super helpful in showing me the different flavors. So far I have only eaten the chocolate cupcake and it was soooo good! You wouldn't even be able to tell that it's vegan and gluten free. Will definitely be back! read more

Wife avoids dairy and gluten and found this place and wanted to give it a try, we went late in the day but tried what was left of the gf/df options and they were super good! I tried a couple regular cupcakes and they were great also. My wife pre ordered a gluten/dairy free dozen recently and I was blown away by how good they were. The oreo, blueberry, and hot cocoa gf/df cupcakes were incredible- I would've never guessed they were gf/df. I also tried a cinnamon toast crunch cupcake and it was pretty good, I just liked the other 3 a lot more. I wish I would've ordered myself a dozen too lol- next time! I live in the central valley but when we're in the area we're going to make it a point to come here! Staff was also super friendly. I used to love feelgood bakery in Alameda and now that it's closed this is my new favorite spot in the area read more

Doodlecakes - Gluten and dairy free cupcakes. Oreo, blueberry, and hot cocoa were INCREDIBLE! - Bakeries Near Me - Alameda, California

I have ordered birthday cakes and cupcakes (both regular and gluten free) from Rebekah of Doodlecakes for the past 3 years. Everything has been amazing: delicious and beautifully decorated. She is also super responsive and does great custom cakes as well. I so appreciate her care and attention to detail, especially when it comes to common allergens like nuts and eggs. It's so nice to be able to support a local family-run business that does great work and is run by such lovely people. Highly recommend. read more

Doodlecakes is on Central, right next to the intersection of Webster Street, and across from the Coast Guard Recruitment office. Stopped in for a sweet snack while running errands nearby. Got the coco choco cupcake $4.25 and it was very tasty and moist, made well with good ingredients that you can taste. Some cupcakes are also made without eggs, dairy or gluten. I believe they change their cupcake flavors and designs weekly. If you opt in to their text messaging service, you can get 10% off your next order. read more

Doodlecakes may have a small storefront, but I would give it lots of kudos for service! Rebekkah was very responsive and accommodating. I also really liked their the online ordering and payment system. It was really convenient. The custom jungle cake that I ordered for my son's birthday was so adorable and cute! The cake was really moist, which we appreciated. However, it was a tad too sweet and had a little too much frosting on the outside of the cake. But, this may have just been due to the design that I wanted as it had to hold the jungle animals. I'm looking forward to my next event, so I can try some different flavors of cupcakes! read more

I have a friend who always brings cupcakes and cakes from this place and they are so good! My friend said the owners are a couple, one as the baker and the other in sales. They have creative tasty flavors and do custom orders really well. You name it they can do it- from John Wick to a vegan beer-themed cake! I've also had several of their cupcakes and they are tasty with yummy toppings and presentation. I have yet to personally order from them because they are a bit further from me and I've been spoiled by my friend who has this place as their go-to dessert spot. I know who to go to for my next custom cake! read more

I absolutely love that they do custom orders, vegan and gluten free options. They also have mini cupcake sampler packs. Love the flavor ranges and the service! I enjoy working with them. Plus they're on a street that is right across the street from crab cove! I've walked to the beach with many a friend after walking into their adorable shop to grab a cup cake to go, to enjoy a perfect alameda day. read more

Discovered this shop at the Alameda Art and Wine Festival and so glad I did! Their cupcakes are flavorful and moist. A week later, I was in Alameda and had to stop by the shop. Not all the cupcakes i bought are pictured as I shared with my parents. The red velvet, chocolate chip, cookies and cream and the ones with chocolate are my favorites I know it's hard to choose with all great options! read more

Rebekah does it again! Our lil buddy turned two and now two years in a row Rebekah has made magic on his birthday. We received many remarks not only about how it was a work of art, but also the tastiest cake they've ever had. I sent over a few inspo picks from Pinterest, and very quickly Rebekah understood the vision. The consistency of the both the cake and frosting is 10/10. Art + flavor win/win. Thank you Rebekah and team! read more

I last minute decided to get a cake for my birthday boat, and Rebekah Scott was so sweet and accommodating to help with my request! She provided me with all the details I needed, and created this beautiful cake for my birthday. Even after closing hours, she helped answer all my questions! It was literally my first time ever ordering a cake for myself; Rebekah made the experience very straightforward and provided such kind services. Thankful she accepted my last minute request :) My friends and I all LOVED the pandan coconut cake with coconut whipped cream. Literally everyone not only devoured the cake, but asked me where I got it! Thanks so much for helping bring my vision to life for my birthday. Also, I love the name of this bakery! (I have a goldendoodle, so it's rather fitting that I ordered from here LOL) read more

This review is long overdue! I ordered a custom vegan Ube cake and one dozen vegan ube cupcakes for my uncle and aunt in December 2023. I haven't seen them in close to 10 years and wanted to give them something they would enjoy. I made the right choice, as they found the cake and cupcakes to be delicious. I also appreciate the wonderful customer service from Rebekah, as she was very responsive via email and patient with all of my questions. Fast forward to July 2024, I went in-store to order a Chocolate Wasted cupcake from here, and it was so delicious that I didn't end up taking a picture. The customer service was excellent in-store as it was via email. Will definitely come back when I want my cupcake fix and also for special occasions! read more

And can't forget their attention to detail in their cupcakes presentation!!! All picture worthy. Friendly service!!! There's no seating options inside it's a pick up and go vibe.

I was very impressed with my first experience with Doodlecakes that I got Rebekah and team again to create my daughter's 18th birthday cake. From planning to imagining what the cake would look like to seeing the final product was worry-free and such an experience. Doodlecakes got every detail right and the design blended so well with our decor. The cake was obviously yummy as expected. And Rebekah was so kind to take an extra mini cake order to surprise my best friend, on a busy Valentine/President's day weekend. I can't thank you enough, Rebekah, Thomas, and the whole team.I didn't expect to find a favorite bakeshop in Alameda. read more

Was looking for a custom birthday cake for my wife and found Doodlecakes on Yelp. All I can say is that the glowing reviews were right. I ended up filling out a request form and they got back to me the next day. The order was very straightforward, they turned it around even faster than normal, and the finished cake was gorgeous and incredibly moist and delicious. Of course, in picking it up, I was faced with their enticing selection of cupcakes and had to pick up a couple of those, too. We were blown away by the dense and flavorful cake and sumptuous frosting. Not to mention how lovely they were to work with. All in all, the birthday was a huge success and I thank my luck that they are close enough to stop by any time, but not too close...if you know what I mean. read more

Rebekah is awweeeeeeesome!!! My husband has lots of food allergies and he can have Doodlecakes cake!! Rebekah and the other young man in the shop are so friendly and fun to talk to. Their dole whip brings me back to Disneyland. They ask for what to write on the cake and give us a celebration candle for it. All the cupcakes are so cute too!! Sorry no pictures for that cause we ate too fast and forgot to let the camera eat first. Love love love to have a nice neighborhood cake bakery read more

This review is overdue. I have popped into Doodlecakes to buy cupcakes a handful of times, and have never been disappointed. The flavors pack a punch and the cake is spongy and delicious. I've also hired Rebekah to bake a cake for 2 different parties and it's always a hit! She is creative, collaborative, and the cake comes out as beautiful as it is tasty. I also think prices are reasonable. Oh - and delivery service has always been timely and friendly. I highly recommend! read more

Date: 3/3/2022 Time: 2:08 PM 55° Sprinkling and cloudy I found out about this bakery business through a yelper, Kendra W, who gave a very detailed review. The review was useful and cool. It was her first review. I hope she writes more reviews. Doodlecakes is located in the 600 block of Central Avenue, formerly the site of the Cookiebar Ice Cream. What a cute bakery decorated in pink and a hint of lavender. Even the decorations on the assorted cupcakes are cute. It has a certain charm and reminds me of another bakery in Castro Valley which specializes in macarons and other sweet treats. Outside of the bakery are two small tables and four chairs for customers to sit, relax and enjoy their sweets. Specialties: cupcakes, regular and gluten free/vegan; sugar cookies, cake jars, fancy cake jars, custom made cakes in three different sizes (4", 6" and 8") and beverages. Female employee is the baker/owner and male employee serves the customer. They are friendly and pleasant. I asked if they would be offering sugar free cupcakes. They didn't have any of those at the moment; however, the owner is working on it. I am not the only customer who asked that question. Purchase: 1 strawberry shortcake in jar, 3 cupcakes in different flavors - orange creme, carrot and red velvet. Which cupcake did I try first? Because I have to watch my sugar intake for health reason, I had 1/4 of the carrot cupcake. Icing was a tad sweet, but the cupcake was flavorful, moist and very good. Finally, I hope Doodlecakes is here to stay on the west end. It is a welcome addition to the community, as I miss the other bakery (Superhero Desserts) with their "happiness in a pan". read more

Doodlecakes makes delicious, creative, and not-too-sugary cupcakes. I can always find a parking space nearby, but it is in a hectic part of town. These cupcakes ain't cheap. With tax & tip (they default to 20% tip), two cupcakes were $11.50. They will put a little "Happy Birthday" plastic thingie in a cupcake for an additional $0.50 per piece. When I was run up on my last visit, I was overcharged. A line-item for soft-serve was added. It took some time for the gal serving me to figure out how to correct. Stuff happens, but perhaps some more training would be good for the new employees. read more

Excellent cake and great service too! So happy they offered the original American buttercream frosting.

Was excited to support a minority owned female business in Alameda! Came on a Sunday a few hours before closing so there wasn't much left (yay for the business) so I got 7 cupcakes . I really liked the cinnamon toast one that was oh so moist. I was also given a few lemon bars for free. So nice! My toddler enjoyed the lemon bar and the cute turtle (fake) in the store. Can't wait to try the cake jars when those are available. read more
