    Triple lemon
    Gina P.

    I eat out a lot and love, love love sweets but rarely leave reviews unless a place or business is absolutely spectacular. Michele's cupcakes are AMAZING, super fresh, and not too sweet. She baked 6-dozen cupcakes for my baby shower this past weekend and several guests asked where I got the cupcakes. Flavors ordered: strawberries and cream, oreo, mascarpone, triple lemon, vanilla latte and dutch chocolate. My personal favorites were: strawberries and cream, oreo and dutch chocolate. Cakes were moist, strawberries tasted super fresh (versus artificial strawberry). Michele was so easy to work with. Thank you so much for the amazing cupcakes! I will definitely be ordering from you again, :D!

    Triple Lemon Cupcakes. Lemon cake, lemon curd filling, with lemon butter cream. Refreshing and just the right amount of lemon sweetness.

    My sister bought these delicious cupcakes from Gateaux. They are moist, flavorful, not too sweet and beautifully decorated. My sister highly recommends this bakery. The owner Michelle is the nicest lady and is a pleasure to work with. Our family will definitely do business with her in the future. We ordered the Triple Lemon and Raspberry Lemonade cupcakes. When we got home they were all eaten in 10 minutes.

    Would you believe that you wouldn't find a better cupcake in town? That's right. Gateaux has that extra ingredient that the rest of San Francisco cakes lack. You may ask yourself what is that ingredient? LOVE. Pure love. This is a woman owned business who puts everything into her product. For me, it was love at first bite. Buttercream frosting is out of this world! I suggest ordering a box of cupcakes and you will agree there is nothing better out there.

    What a great find and positive experience it was to order and enjoy custom made cupcakes created by Michele. Gateaux is hidden gem in our neighborhood for some of most delicious, moist, and flavorful cupcakes. In my opinion, they are better than many bakeries out there. I ordered three dozen cupcakes for my daughter's 8th birthday and Michele was able to accommodate us with some notice. The pickup was easy and seamless. The presentation was beautiful. The flavors were very fresh and authentic, instead of just all sugar. Needless to say, the cupcakes were a huge hit at the party with many raving reviews, especially from the birthday girl. Michele is very personable. We ended up chatting it up and finding out that she knows someone I went to elementary school with......what a small world. Needless to say that we will be ordering again. If you're looking for some delicious customized cupcakes at an affordable price, then look no further than Michele and Gateaux. You won't be sorry.

    Michele and Gateaux were the BEST! I placed my order the day before and Michele was so accommodating. The cupcakes were DELICIOUS! Had the perfect taste and balance of homemade and gourmet! Will definitely order from here again and recommend to everyone!

    Custom order of A dozen Chocolate Cupcakes with 1/2 Espresso Frosting & 1/2 Salted Caramel Frosting ~
    Shelley G.

    Michele is just a sweetheart! I was scrambling online to look for a bakery that was able to deliver in SF and her Yelp page came up. With so little reviews, I was skeptical, but boy was I lucky I took the chance. She was able to accommodate my last minute order of a dozen Chocolate Cupcakes with half Espresso Frosting and half Salted Caramel Frosting a day before delivery! On the day of delivery, Michele texted me the finishing touches of the cupcakes to see if it was to my liking or not. She wanted me to see the cupcakes before she made the delivery, which was great. I love the fact that when she made the delivery, she made sure the person who was receiving the cupcakes actually gets them. My friend's housemate was the one who answered the door, but she didn't just hand it to him like other delivery people do. So the housemate had to get my friend out of bed so he can get them. Ahaha The cupcakes were delicious! According my my friend and his housemates. The espresso frosting was bomb for a coffee lover like my friend. The cupcakes look so good! I really wanted to eat them, but I'm all the way in LA. T_T Minimum order is a dozen. Cupcakes range from $3.25-$3.75 with a delivery fee of $15. You can pay with credit card or PayPal. Thank you again Michele! You are a life saver! *\(^___^)/*

    Cute little cupcake shop where they have a good variety of flavors. We were served by a very…read morefriendly gentleman named John. We went late in the day which I assume affected the texture of the cake (They were a little dry). We got chocolate salted caramel which had great flavor. We especially liked the frosting which was fluffy and not too sweet, red velvet which had an artificial taste, banana which tasted too fake, and lemon which had a delicious custard or pudding filling. All in all, we enjoyed the cupcakes but next time we will try to get there earlier when they're fresher.

    Avoid this antisemitic establishment at all costs. On Tuesday afternoon after 6:00 PM, I entered…read morethis cupcake shop with a friend while looking for dessert after dining nearby. I was wearing a Star of David necklace. The employee on duty initially interacted normally and offered a small promotional incentive with a purchase. During our conversation about flavors, the employee asked me, "What side are you on?" When I asked for clarification, she proceeded to ask whether I was a "Zionist" and "Orthodox." I responded politely and honestly that I am both. Immediately after this response, the employee withdrew the previously offered promotion and stated that I would need to pay full price. The questioning and subsequent change in treatment appeared to be based solely on my religious identity and perceived political beliefs. The way the term "Zionist" was used was hostile, and the interaction became uncomfortable and inappropriate. I remained polite throughout. My friend suggested that we leave due to the employee's behavior, and we did so. As we exited, we stated that it did not seem like this was a business that wanted our patronage. The employee responded that she was not the owner and "just worked there." Regardless of her role, no customer should be questioned about their religion or identity or treated differently because of it. I am sharing this experience so that others are aware and in the hope that the business addresses this conduct and ensures that all customers are treated with respect.

    Went to this cute little cupcake shop inside of the Crocker galleria mall, which you can find an…read moreentrance to on sutter or post street. The sutter entrance is closer to this little shop. The inside of the shop is so cute with a bunch of cupcake decorations. We ordered a Taro Cupcake and a Chocolate Tres leches cupcake. They were both very delicious and I preferred the Taro cupcake. It really tastes like Taro. I thought the chocolate tees leches cake would be a little more moist. We were greeted as soon as we walked in and were helped right after. You order at the counter that has the cupcakes on display. There were a handful of people there ordering cupcakes!

    Most cupcake spots require 48 hours' notice for delivery. I got an order in with 45 hours' notice -…read moreI called and they said it was fine. I even added significantly to the order about 28 hours in advance. They delivered on time, everything was packaged nicely. Their prices are reasonable ($35 for a dozen mini donuts, mixed flavors), plus they had both vegan and gluten-free options (must buy a dozen of each if mini cupcakes). They were easy to contact by phone or email. When they delivered, they dropped off with a colleague and texted me the confirmation. The only downside is you cant' choose your flavors in the mixed dozen (I'd requested carrot cake in the form but we didn't get any).
