    Gabby was a dream to work with! We ordered a small custom design cake for our wedding day. I loved the sampler box where we got to choose our favorite flavor. The triple chocolate espresso is PHENOMENAL. I'm drooling just thinking about it. Delivery was seamless and the cake looked great. Would 1000% recommend.

    I've been getting my cakes from Gabby for over three years and she never disappoints! She uses clean, organic, high-quality ingredients and you can really taste the difference. Her passion fruit filling is my absolute favorite, they are so good! She doesn't just make cakes for birthdays, weddings, and special occasions, she also has tons of other amazing pastries and sweets. On top of that, additionally her service is amazing! She's super detail-oriented and always makes sure everything is perfect. Plus, she has the cutest little shop where you can check out her work (and probably leave with something delicious). Make sure to follow her on Instagram because she always shares her beautiful creations! Definitely my go-to for any special occasion.

    Peanut butter toffee cookie, cinnamon roll and a cereal donut stuffed with cream cheese

    Had to try this bakery when we saw they were doing a pastry box day! They had so many options it was hard to pick!! The pb toffee cookie was amazing especially warmed up and the corn cereal cream donut was by far the best choice! We also tried a strawberry and cream brioche bun not pictured and it was the perfect savory/sweet bite. I'd recommend if you are in town for a pastry box day to line up ahead of time and get some sweet treats!

    Vanilla and cookie dough cake with lavender icing and it is as delicious as it looks.

    It would be impossible to sing Gabby's praises more. She is an artist with an oven and an icing tube. I have ordered two cakes from her-one was a standard Valentine's Day heart cake that was amazing and the most recent was a vanilla and cookie dough birthday cake with lavender frosting. I gave her creative control on the decor and she did not disappoint. My wife could not believe how beautiful her birthday cake was-almost didn't want to eat it. But, eat it we did and it was amazing. The fact that it is vegan blows my mind. It is so good. I also have to say she will bend over backwards to get you your cake. I asked her on short notice if she could handle the order and arrange a pickup on one of her non-pickup days, and went through this while she was in Miami for the weekend. She was gracious and pleasant and so easy to work with and communicate with. You should use her as often as possible for your dessert needs.

    Eggnog cake

    I've been following Gabby, of Gabby Bakes LLC, on Instagram for quite some time. She posts some of the most beautiful, creative and VEGAN cakes I've seen. This weekend Gabby Bakes LLC brought slices of two cakes, an eggnog and a s'mores version, to a holiday market hosted by Cactus Moon. She also brought two holiday cookie flavors to the market. I was stoked that I was finally going to get the chance to try her cakes. I purchased one slice of each cake. She priced them at six dollars each. The slices were big, so six dollars seemed reasonable for a completely vegan product. The cakes were insane! They were both moist with super creamy icing. They weren't overly sweet or artificial tasting. I didn't get feedback from a non-vegan but I'm convinced that even someone who eats dairy could've enjoyed Gabby's cakes. Gabby Bakes does not currently have a storefront. You can DM her on Instagram to order a custom cake or cupcakes. You can also purchase her baked goods at Pure Kitchen in Tampa.

    Gabby Bakes is making the world a better place one cake at a time. Some dream of cake, others bake it happen! Best birthday cake I have ever bought myself. Beautiful lambeth design and decorated expertly. Outstanding creative flavor with tremendous creativity and execution. If you are lucky to catch her at a pop up you'll find she's not only a cake genius and you can try, brownies, cookies and savory pastries. Highly recommended for her high quality vegan ingredients!

    Chocolate ganache cupcake

    I placed my first order with Gabby last week - her pictures on Instagram were gorgeous and totally grabbed my attention. She communicated quickly, and had my order ready on time as promised! She also has a ton of delicious and even unique flavors to choose from! I ordered a 6-count of chocolate ganache cupcakes and not only were they absolutely beautiful to look at, but they also tasted amazing! I can't wait to place my next order for vegan goodies with Gabby :D

    We frequently order for Work Meeting and I have been dying to try these cakes. With different taste…read morepalettes and preferences I decided to try the mini cupcakes. I opted for the twelve (12) mini cupcakes for about $24 and one six (6) gluten free mini cupcakes for about $15. It was a bit pricey but felt it was going to be worth it. Delivery came on time and the delivery driver was kind and very aware of the mini cupcakes, so they weren't ruined. While I understood we were getting a nice variety for the twelve minis, we couldn't pick or choose as we ordered online and it was being delivered. When received we did received a nice assortment but it would have been nice to see what were the flavors, maybe a sticker on bottom so people knew what they were getting. The cupcakes were really tiny, literally bite size. Decorated nicely. The frosting was over powering which made it super sweet. The cupcake itself was a bit dry and no flavor, which I guess was good cuz then it truly would have been over the top sweet. I don't want to knock the cupcakes or the business as I see her cakes are amazing but for the price it wasn't the best cupcakes. They left everyone lacking. As small as the mini cupcakes were they didn't go as quickly, normally desserts are the first to go. Just a bit disappointing, but I am optimistic and next time on an occasion I will try the cakes. And hey if you want try out the mini's - they may agree with your palette and flavor.

    My husband and I absolutely loved Bakery 1908! It's such a fun experience from the minute you walk…read morein. You grab a tray and a pair of tongs and make your way through the bakery, with separate glass display cases for the sweet and savory pastries. You just pick whatever looks good -- which is dangerous because everything looks good! First of all, the prices are fantastic. Most of the buns are under $4. My absolute favorite was the ham and cheese bun. The bun is slightly sweet and the ham and cheese are savory, and the combination is SO good. The blueberry bun was another favorite -- it almost had a blueberry cheesecake flavor. We also tried the curry bun, which was delicious. We ordered several of the hot items too. The har gow (shrimp dumplings) were outstanding. They have a delicate steamed wrapper filled with plump, juicy shrimp, and these were honestly some of the best I've ever had. I've eaten in multiple restaurants in Chinatown in both Los Angeles and San Francisco, so that's saying a lot! The Shanghai dumplings, which are little soup dumplings filled with meat and broth, were also delicious. We also tried the steamed pork ribs. The flavor was very good, but steamed pork has a different appearance and there were some fatty pieces. I'm glad we tried them, but they're probably the one thing I wouldn't order again. Another huge plus was the pricing on the hot food -- every hot entrée we looked at was under $10. Between the two of us, we ordered seven different things, couldn't even finish everything, and our entire check was only $46. Great quality, great variety, and an incredible value. I will definitely be back. I was going to say I wish there were one closer to us...but maybe it's a good thing there isn't, because I would probably eat those ham and cheese buns every day! Five stars!

    Extremely disappointing customer service, especially from the manager…read more I placed an order for two milk tea drinks at 1:24 PM. While waiting, I watched another customer receive her drinks even though I was already ahead of her by approximately four customers in line. At 1:32 PM, I approached the gentleman at the counter to ask about my order. He did not greet me or acknowledge me. He looked at my receipt, looked at his watch, and dismissively said, "It's not even 10 minutes." He then asked me, "What do you want to do?" When I asked what he meant, he told me I could either wait or get my money back. He checked in the back and came back telling me it would be another five minutes. I agreed to wait. Five minutes later, instead of simply addressing the delay or apologizing, he told me I could grab a bun while I waited. I explained that I already had a bun and that, considering the inconvenience and the way the situation was handled, I felt a discount would have been an appropriate gesture. Instead, he offered to refund my money and gave me another receipt without the drinks. The most disappointing part was Norman, the manager. At no point did he apologize, acknowledge the inconvenience, or make any genuine effort to resolve the situation professionally. As a manager, I expected him to step in, listen to the customer, and demonstrate some level of courtesy and accountability. Instead, his attitude left me with the very clear impression that he simply did not care whether he had my business or not. I completely understand that a bakery can get busy and that orders can sometimes take longer than expected. The issue wasn't simply the wait--it was the attitude and the complete lack of customer service. A simple apology and a professional response could have completely changed the experience. Unfortunately, I left feeling dismissed and unappreciated as a customer. Management should understand that customers remember how they are treated, especially when something goes wrong. I will not be returning, and I hope the owners take this feedback seriously and address how customers are being treated by management.

    If it was just the bakery, I would give it 5 stars!…read more Very nice location, definitely immediately impressed when you walk in. I ordered the Cuban sandwich $15, a small canoli $3, a small cupcake $3, pineapple muffin $3.95, tres leches $3.95, and a specialty cake big enough for 21 people $45. Bakery items were fairly priced, and were high quality. This bakery knows what they are doing when it comes to this part. Except the tres leche, they don't know what they're doing there. Too dry, needs more of the 3 milks. It's literally supposed to be soaked in that milk concoction. The bakery counter is too tall, so I had to stand on my tippy toes to pay I'm 5' tall. Everyone standing around in no apparent order. There is a ticket system apparently? Once I saw it I grabbed a ticket hoping that would solve the problem. After about 5 minutes I realized they weren't even using it. So other people that were there after me were being taken care of. Then I had to awkwardly make the counter people aware that I needed help. They were very nice though, and prioritized me once they realized. The Cuban sandwich tasted good, but the bread wasn't the best. It was $15 with no sides and it was thin. Yes it's 9", but it's a really narrow 9". I would never order it again. Too expensive, and little value. Kinda mad I spent that much on a little sandwich, but lesson learned! I'm used to a $10 Cuban that is fat and tasty. So yeah, this was a disappointment. Overall I'll be back for the bakery! So many great options, all high quality and nicely put together. Everything else is too expensive and a hard pass.

I ordered a Cuban sandwich from the deli counter. Unfortunately, it was cold in the center, which made me think it had been made ahead of time and reheated instead of fresh.

The inside is a decent size with tables, cute decor and lots of plants. When I first walked in, I was taken back by how beautiful the pastry display cases were!! I had the hardest time choosing which pastry to get because they all looked like works of art!! Super friendly staff, great service but now to get to the goods: the coffee and pasties. This is a true authentic French bakery, no doubt in my mind. The iced salted caramel latte is the best I have EVER had. I could taste every flavor and it blended with the coffee perfectly. The ham and cheese croissant was so flakey, the perfect ham ratio and just all around fantastic. The pastry I got had raspberry jam and white chocolate ganache (I don't remember the name of it) and it was seriously the best pastry I've ever had. Most pastries can be too sweet, but this was just right. The jam tasted fresh and homemade (probably is!) and the white chocolate ganache gave it just a touch of sweetness. It is a little pricey so be warned: $48 for two coffees and two pastries. Definitely worth a splurge!!
