UCSF employees also get a 10% discount. The employees make great recs if you don't know what you wanna get. My top favorite are Key Lime Pie and Banana Pudding. Both taste amazing!! Other okay flavors have been red velvet, cookies n cream, and carrot cake. Nothing has been bad and the dairy free ones are really good. Just too bad if you're allergic to almonds cause there's some of that in the df cupcakes.

From initial contact to pickup, it was an absolutely fantastic experience. Let's start at the end... the cake was PERFECT. It looked and tasted wonderful, and that alone deserves 5 stars. Going back to first contact, Mikka was responsive and listened closely to what I wanted. She gave me some excellent advice on how to approach what I wanted, and was great about providing options. The quote was very detailed and completely accurate. Her communication along the way was great throughout, and I was so pleased with the outcome. When it came time for the party, the attendees and the person of honor were wowed by the look and taste of the cake and everyone who has seen pics has been blown away. Overall a great experience!

The cake we had was a strawberry cake with white cake and subtle strawberry frosting. For one the cake is beautiful to look at. Next the flavor was perfect. Good cakes aren't too sweet and this was done just right. Light and not too sugary. I'd definitely try other items from this place.

I ordered a 1/4" sheet cake, because the website said it would feed 20-25 people so we thought that…read morewould totally be enough for our children's birthday party with 18 kids attending. The cake was delivered and I was shocked by how small it is, and had to call them because I thought we were given the wrong size. The cake measures less than 12" long x 7" wide, and based on my experience it would feed 12 people with regular-size (not generous) slices measuring ~3" x 2". To feed 24 people as it claimed, you would have to cut 1" x 1.5" slices and I cannot imagine a scenario where that is remotely acceptable as a serving size. It was beautifully decorated and looks delicious, but for over $100 I would hope that I would be able to feed 18 children.

Wow I am impressed with their macaroons and the old fashion cupcake…read more The macaroons are different from others that I tried. They are made with coarsely ground almonds with the skins intact. They do not add any food coloring or processed flavorings, so they are distinctly rustic and natural. It is not sticky, gooey or has too much sugar stuck on them. I like the hazelnut flavor. The cupcakes are decorated nicely. Their Italian Meringue Cupcake is a rich Double-Chocolate cake with a light and fluffy marshmallow-like texture makes me think of a hostess cupcake. I had two yellow cream cheese frosting gingerbread cupcakes, raspberry chocolate and strawberry vanilla cupcake. I am happy with the selection I received which is a great way to try and determine if this bakery knows how to make a good cupcake. I enjoyed their carrot cake cupcake. All cupcakes were nice and moist, the frosting is always the key to a good cupcake. Thank you and I hope to stop by again and try a cake.

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.

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!

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).

The cakes are the real standout here and honestly the only place I go when I need one. They're consistently light, balanced, and never overly sweet or heavy. You can tell there's real attention to flavor and texture, and they always feel a little special without being over-the-top. That said, I'd still skip the croissants. Like the other location, they're missing that crisp, flaky top layer that really makes a croissant shine. Overall, if you're choosing between locations, this is the one.

We also really like the Tartine Manufactory that's on the other side of the neighborhood that has more sit down seating.
