We used Hapa Cupcakes & Bakery for our wedding cake and cupcakes. Communication with them to obtain the certificate of insurance was a bit of a struggle as they were non-responsive but we were able to obtain. Wedding cake and cupcakes were delivered on top but the cake toppers were installed incorrectly (2 Pokémon characters facing away from each other instead of looking at each other). This was a little frustrating as an employee had taken a picture of how the placement of the toppers were supposed to be. Our wedding coordinators had to fix the placement of the toppers. Other than that, our guests enjoyed the cupcakes and ate all of them. read more

Service was great when I was here. The desserts are really good. I came in for a cookie butter cookie that was really good. And the person who served me was really kind to me explaining the desserts I was curious about read more

Super sweet cupcakes and rather overpriced at almost $5 each. They look nice and have even been featured on the Food Network, but they're pretty rich and probably best reserved for special occasions only. I personally like their cookies more than their cupcakes, but even the cookies can be pretty dense and a bit too much. Overall, I like coming here once in awhile, but prefer the Fullerton location over this one, as the staff is a lot nicer there. The employees at the Brea location aren't friendly at all and the door has been locked well past 15 minutes of their stated opening time at least twice now, so it seems like they're rather disorganized. read more

Hapa Brea recently moved to DT Brea and love the new location. The banana pudding is seriously so good!

This review is a bit late, but I wanted to share my thoughts on this great, local bakery. So far I've very much enjoyed my customer service experience with them (the person I spoke to on the phone was super friendly, informative, and helpful). I am a big fan of the cupcakes here. Usually, I'm hesitant to get cupcakes from other places simply because I feel they are often overwhelmingly sweet. This place, however, does a perfect job of balancing between the soft cake flavor and the filling/icing's sweetness. There's a nice finesse with the flavors they've created (though I usually don't, I enjoyed their red velvet immensely because they do so well making these). Average cost of their cupcakes (or at least some of the specialty ones) are around $4 a piece, but you do get a good sized, delicious cupcake from it. I ordered their 2021 New Years covering (because I saw it on Instagram and it resonated with me). I have to say, though, 2021 is already starting off a bit rough . At least, these cupcakes were wonderful! read more

I just visited the new Hapa bakery location and it was so pleasant!! The bakery smells divine and it is so cute inside. Desiree helped me pick out cookies and dog biscuits, and I noted the cakes and puddings for next time. I love the Hapa cupcakes but the cookies are a special treat for my family. The dogs loved the dog biscuit- two wagging tails approved! read more

When I first heard of Hapa Cupcakes, my wedding planner boss gifted them for my birthday. My initial thoughts was I loved the colors, especially on the Funfetti and the variety of flavors. The cupcakes were delectable and were the perfect yummy sweet treat. Per usual for all cakes, it was "got milk" delicious! I recently discovered that Hapa opened a second cakery in Brea. This is where I picked up my last few orders and they were all within a weekend-ish. On a Friday I ordered a 6" Oreo Funfetti for my buddy's birthday. Saturday I ordered some cupcakes for another buddy's birthday. The following Monday I picked up my Star Wars May the Fourth cupcakes for Star Wars Day! The staff Gil and Tatiana are so knowledgeable about the sweets, helpful, and Gil even remembered me, which was awesome! Ahahah... or is that a bad thing? Within four days I became the Duchess... oh, boy! Hahaha... good times! Parking is easy. They have a small lot directly behind the cakery shop, which was an old house that got renovated. Oh, and on May the Fourth -- I finally tried rge cookies. Hands down the Snickerdoodle was my favorite followed by the Circus Amimal. My favorite cupcakes are the Circus Animal and Funfetti. The birthday cake -- Oreo Funfetti was sooooooooo good! All my friends liked it too. That cake was perfect because you can't go wrong with cookies & cream AND the birthday boy loves Kit Kats. The next time I'll be back will be for my mom's birthday / Mother's Day. Can't wait! I know exactly which cake I will be ordering. read more

Absolutely the best customer service ever! The brownies are amazing too! Annette was amazing and made great recommendations thank you Annette! read more

Their banana pudding is the bomb. It lasts up to 3 days in the fridge. It tastes fresh. It is on the sweeter side but I don't mind that!

First time here and the cashier with dark hair and nose ring was so condescending. I asked how much the cookies were and her exact words were "The price is up there on the menu" so rude! Please properly train your employees on customer service. No wonder the place was empty!! Zero stars for service. read more

2.5 Stars. It was my first time here and I purchased two cupcakes and a cookie. The strawberry cheesecake cupcake was a white cupcake with strawberry jam filling and cream cheese frosting with a dollop of strawberry jam on top. It was interesting but I didn't love it. The circus animal cupcake was a white cupcake with pink frosting, sprinkles, and a circus animal cookie on top. I really didn't care for this cupcake either, as it didn't really taste that different from box mix cupcakes and the frosting wasn't great. I had two bites of this cupcake before tossing it. Unlike their cupcakes though, I thought the cookies were pretty great. I purchased a circus animal cookie and a snickerdoodle ($2.50 each). The circus animal cookie had circus animal bits baked into it and a circus animal cookie on top. And I loved the snickerdoodle. Both cookies had the perfect chewy texture. So while I won't be returning for more of their cupcakes, I may just come back for more of those incredible cookies. read more

YESSS love Hapa. Amazing staff & the owner is pretty rad too love the cupcakes love the drinks

I called on a Tuesday and asked if they did gender reveal cakes. They said they usually need more time with cakes but know gender cakes are time sensitive so they said they can have it done by Thursday. I was so excited and was so please how nice they were through the whole process. We got a small cake (smash cake size) and 6 cupcakes, it was kinda pricey but the taste of them was well worth it!!! I recommend them on their service and the quality of their desserts! Thank you for making this experience great! read more

So this review is also going to echo the rude service and "go on the internet" but also something I've never encountered from any bakery ever. Behold - when picking up the cake, they apparently don't have boxes big enough for their small cakes??? This makes absolutely zero sense. We could have easily changed our minds about the cake size if anyone from the bakery said "Oh we're sorry - we don't have that box size at the moment so you can risk it and have a kinda smooshed cake or you can change your cake size." But hey, I know it's just me - the amount of rudeness from April made me realize that ordering a cake from them was my fault; I can't believe I had questions about cake size and flavors when I should already know these things! So of course I should have known about the boxes as well! "Want a smooshed cake that will smell and taste like your refrigerator? We got you, fam" - Hapa Bakery EDIT: We're eating the cake right now and it's like desert sand on a sunny day. read more

This shop does not disappoint! We've enjoyed several of their cupcakes, but my absolutely favorite is the Chocolate Whiskey. Annette helped us out today, very nice and efficient as she got us signed up for the rewards program. Do yourself a favor, make a trip out to Birch St and enjoy a yummy cupcake or any of the other specialty desserts. read more

Not sure how I haven't left a review for Hapa yet. The BESTTTTT cupcakes in Orange County! Service is always great. Sometimes they have whole cakes available for purchase so that's nice if you might be looking for something small last minute. Of course make sure you place an order ahead of time if you're planning an event that you need it for! Either location you go to you're sure to get the same quality and same service! Hapa is the best if you're looking for a sweet treat! read more

I literally never leave reviews but i came across their stand at the fullerton farmers market and got the banana pudding and it is the best banana pudding i have ever had!! I got the large and it was super reasonably priced and i'm trying to stop myself from finishing it all in one night. I'm so excited that they're so close by! read more

Annette was extremely helpful, sweet, and kind. It was my first time here and she guided me to the right flavors. She was awesome will definitely return. read more

Some of the BEST pastries I've had in the OC. Amber, the associate who helped me, was so incredibly helpful in giving recommendations. She had me try the espresso martini brownie, which is as good as it sounds - if not better. I left out having spent more than I planned to because of all her suggestions. To me, it is awesome when employees have as much of a passion for what they sell as those who are sold to. Not to mention how nice it is inside :) Will definitely be back! read more

Needed a cake for my daughter's birthday! They were to busy on the phone to help... sucks this place looked good...

I LOVE Hapa Cupcakes & Bakery! I have used them for countless birthday cakes, custom cakes, cupcakes, cookies, and beyond. Always a big hit, super tasty, and very good value. You just can't beat their flavors and unique designs. Recently used them to make my custom 30th bday Barbie Cake and it was amazing! Funfetti inside, oreo cake filling, and cute pink ombre outside. My guests loved it and everything was gone! Their staff is super helpful and friendly with helping you bring your vision to life. Can't wait for my next celebration excuse to order a cake again real soon. read more
