Happy 23rd birthday son
Arlicia S.

Sandra is very sweet. We wanted to celebrate my sons 23rd birthday and the cake was a surprise. The cake was beautiful. We were very happy

My boyfriend surprised me with the most amazing cake, that I've ever seen. He ordered a custom cake from East Bay Cakes and it was UHHHHHHH -mazing! We went to Napa for my bday and he went with the theme and had a whine barrel design cake made - white cake with champagne flavored filled with fresh strawberries. Everyone loved the cake and was so surprised with how it turned out. the flavor was perfect and I would highly recommend! The only thing is that we live in Oakland and it was a bit of a drive but worth it for the end result ;)

My niece is in love with Furbies from a long time ago and East Bay Cakes was able to make them.

I was looking for a cake the last minute and East Bay Cakes came to the rescue. I was a little nervous because I've never ordered from them and was unsure what I was going to get or how it was going to taste. The cakes were perfect and tasted good. I will be ordering from them again and again.

Super happy with my custom cake. Looks so cool!! Placed an order just a week in advance and got a response quick, and the baker was so nice and helpful! I'll be ordering again thank you

She made a cake for my daughters 80s theme grad party and it came out great! Most importantly it was delish!!! I mean usually cakes even when they look good are dry or taste bland but this cake was so good!! Every last drop was eaten! We had confetti cake with strawberries.

It was an absolute pleasure working with Sandra. I simply sent her a photo of the cake I wanted, asked if it was possible and she exceeded my expectation. I will be getting my cakes from Sandra from now on.

Wedding cake

Wow! That's what everyone said at our wedding. We got married in April 2021 and had to move the venue. Sandra was great and no problem moving location. The cake tasted wonderful and every one loved it. Fantastic decorations and I couldn't have asked for more Thank you Sandra, Jeri and Dave W

halloween themed cake and cupcakes

What a wonderful experience it was working with Sandra & East Bay Cakes! We had a couple of other folks leave us hanging when trying to get a cake and some cupcakes for our son's 6th birthday...I was stressing out!!! But then I found East Bay Cakes, and luckily they could do the job with about two weeks notice! Sandra saved the day! Our son loved the decorations, and the cake was delicious. We didn't have any to take home after the party! Sandra was so easy to work with and she took our suggestions and wants to heart and delivered an awesome cake! Thank you Sandra!

Sandra was a pleasure to work with. She came through last minute for my fiancé's surprise birthday party!! Life saver I tell you. And the cake was delicious!!! Thank you thank you thank you!!

Sandra is so sweet ! She made me a Moana themed cake for my nieces 2nd birthday. Although she did a great job ! My cake fell apart Fondant came off and the palm tree broke and the number 2 for the cake wouldn't stay up or stay the way it was made it was too soft and not strong enough to stay in place I had to keep pressing all of it back on to take a picture and put it back on so others can see before I cut it. It pretty much took 45 min of my party time away from the birthday to keep it up and perfect before my niece blew out her candle. I placed the characters on my cake, had to place one behind the 2 to keep it up. As far as the taste she did wonderful I had so many compliments about how great the cake tasted and in my opinion that was the most important part

Cake after my daughter fixed her name

We've been ordering from Z&H Cakes for a couple of years now for all kinds of occasions, and every…read moresingle time Farzi, who is both the owner and the creative mind behind these masterpieces, manages to surprise us in the best way. Her attention to detail, her creativity, and the love she puts into every design really show. She always goes above and beyond, and one thing we appreciate so much is that she includes a smash cake for our son with every order. It's such a thoughtful touch, and he absolutely loves it. Farzi has never disappointed us. Every cake has been a work of art and a highlight of our celebrations. I'm attaching a couple of the cakes she's made for us so you can see the magic for yourself. If you're looking for someone who truly cares about her craft and her customers, Z&H Cakes is the place.

First cake: This was the first cake Z&H Cakes made for our…read moreson's adoption celebration, and it was by far the most beautiful cake he has ever had. It was a chocolate cake--moist, with delicious and creamy buttercream--and best of all, it was not overly sweet. We didn't even ask for it to be less sweet, so we were delightfully surprised that it wasn't overwhelmingly sugary. It had the level of sweetness you find in Japanese cakes, which I love. Our sons loved this cake so much that we now plan to order all of our special-occasion cakes from Z&H Cakes. Our youngest wants a construction-truck cake for his third birthday, and we're excited to see how it will turn out. We love everything about this cake and appreciate Z&H Cakes for their attention to detail. Second order: This is the second time we have ordered from Z&H Cakes, and they did not disappoint. We ordered cupcakes for the Rainbow Community Center of Contra Costa County's Grand Re-Inauguration Ceremony, and they were a big hit. People loved how beautiful they looked, but even more importantly, they loved how delicious the cupcakes tasted. They had just the perfect amount of sweetness and were enjoyed by everyone. Thank you for helping make our event so special with these beautifully delicious cupcakes.

DoorDash to the rescue! This was my 2nd time trying their fare…read more Combo plate 4.5outta5 Everything was seasoned perfectly. My only gripe is the basa not having been fried harder. I like my fish fried a lil hard/crispy but still flaky & moist on the inside. I was delighted to see the peas over rice! The dressing was a touch too moist, not bad at all just lacking a lil texture. The cornbread muffin was too sweet imho. To each their own tho. Frozen lemonade was perfect, especially after spiking;-) Turns out the owner is a friend of a friend. She's onto something and I hope she continues to grow & becomes a staple of the community. #GoTaste&See

Edited to add a response to the owner:…read more Girl I already said I'm not coming back lmao. Let's listen to understand, not reply. Talking bout I'm not welcome. I'm just matching your energy, because what made you call me Aj? Yeah exactly lol I'll go touch some grass if you go fix them mashed potatoes bookie! You're welcome, Tyler! Just as I said when you answered, NO WORRIES on the potatoes- (I was definitely not going to waste my gas coming back.) The mac and cheese didn't taste as though it came out of the oven. It was barely warm, but I digress. The wait time wasn't an issue and I didn't complain about any delays as you stated. Also didn't complain about the Shasta soda, just a lack of other brands available. My advice- don't add in free cornbread cupcakes. It'll save you money and time I love sweet, but that wasn't sweet cornbread. That was a cornbread cupcake lol. Thanks for the free soda. God bless you & your business endeavors! Went on a week day right when they opened at 12:00pm. I ordered fried lamb chops, garlic mashed potatoes + Mac and cheese. My meal came with a shasta soda can and a corn bread muffin, for $35.00 + tax. Waited about 20 minutes for my food. The young man at the counter was nice, although when I asked him what he'd recommend/what was popular- he was unable to tell me anything, so no help there. The inside is super cute! Loved the decor and vibe overall. Super girly. If you're looking to sit down and eat, there's no room. Be prepared to get your food to go! Anyways, let's break it down... Lamb chops: - 4/10. 4 pieces that were fried a minute or two too long & looked like the lamb had been starved for 40 days & 40 nights. Aside from that, the flavor was ok. Garlic mashed potatoes: - -50/10. It tasted exactly how it looked... dry & was definitely giving Idaho instant mashed potatoes. Albeit there were some potato skins in there, but overall the worst "garlic mashed potatoes" I've ever had. I couldn't get over how artificial it tasted. Mac & cheese: - 7.5/10. Your basic Mac & cheese. It definitely wasn't fresh though- it had either been from the day before or just sitting for too long. I'd expect it to be fresh & gooey, especially if you're just opening. Corn bread muffin: - 0/10. I get this is a bakery/food restaurant... but please my corn bread should not taste like no cupcake! Shasta soda can: - Nothing wrong with shasta, but please consider offering other brands of soda in the fridge. Even a water bottle would've sufficed. I wasn't going to upgrade to a lemonade for an extra fee! All in all I rate the entire experience a 2.5/5 stars. I don't think I'll be going back. The mashed potatoes, corn bread muffin & skimpy lamb chops pissed me off lol
