The cake was incredibly moist and delicious, and their cream cheese frosting is seriously the best. The store itself is always clean and so cutely decorated, which makes picking up your order even more enjoyable. The staff is always friendly too.

I was able to place my order ahead of time and have a seamless pickup with no hassle. After this cake, I've officially decided I'll be asking my husband to get my birthday cakes from here from now on!

I did get one that was already made and bought some mini ones too. Family gulped them down. Super tasty. The inside of the store is very cute with things you can buy like coffee mugs or other nice stuff.

The staff is incredibly helpful and answered all my noob questions. I'll be back to this place for sure.

(I won't eat sh!tty bread- not worth it.) I figure if I"m going to eat bad might as well be good! And I'm happy to report that this bread is good and worth the calories. It is dense showing they don't cheapen it only yeast and cinnamony and yummyness. I don't know at what time their morning bread comes out, but when I've passed around 3ish they seem to be fully stocked so their afternoon -bread must come out sometime before then. They get an A+

After requesting to place an order for a cake I would need the next day the staff was more than happy to accept my order. Originally, I would have liked to order a carrot cake but those cakes need to be ordered at least a week in advance so that was very much my fault. I ended up going with a classic tres leches cake which tasted wonderful. Miriam was the one to help me out. Bonus points for having the same name ;) Miriam made great detailed questions to make sure the cake was exactly what I wanted it to be referencing off a picture I had showed her as inspiration. From size all the way down to the smallest details, Miriam disclosed information about how certain designs or details I wanted would change the presentation of the cake, and made sure I was delightlfuly satisfied with what would be the result. She broke down every last detail including how the icing would likely stain our mouths and very nicely reassured me that it would rise right off with water swishes. Overall I was incredibly satisfied with the service I was given, and I greatly appreciate how Miriam thought about every question in order to complete my desired vision.

I've been to Candlelight Bakery a few times over the years and have always enjoyed their tres…read moreleches cake; it's usually pretty good. Unfortunately, my most recent visit was a completely different experience and honestly left a bad taste in my mouth. I stopped by one morning because I was craving a ham and cheese croissant. Yelp showed this bakery in my search results, so I decided to swing by. When I got there, they didn't have any croissants -- just cakes, cookies, and a few sweet pastries. That was fine, but what really turned me off was the service. There were a few people waiting for cake pre-orders. One of the cash registers didn't have a line, so I stood there for a bit, but no one acknowledged me. I eventually moved to the other line and waited my turn. When I got to the front, the cashier asked if I had a pre-order. I said no, I just wanted to grab a few cookies. Instead of helping me, she told me to hold on and went straight to the person behind me to ask if they had a pre-order -- and then asked, in a rude tone, "Who was here first?" as if I had cut the line. Thankfully, the person behind me spoke up and said I was there first. I bought a few custard cream puffs and sugar elephant cookies, but sadly, they weren't worth it. The cream puffs tasted stale and the cookies tasted store-bought. After this experience, I don't think I'll be coming back.

It had the right crunch, airiness, porous interior and flavor. I toasted it at home and had it with their butter and it was simple perfection. You can find them at multiple different SoCal farmer's markets. The worker here was so kind and gave us the baguette bread for free! I'll definitely be coming back for more baked goods. I want an entire sandwich with that delicious bread. The bad: The butter was pricey at $12-14 (I can't recall the exact price). However, it WAS delicious. My mom reminded me multiple times "DO NOT COOK WITH THIS BUTTER. IT IS TO ENJOY WITH BREAD." The interesting: The worker here actually spoke French! What an authentic touch.

"La favorita Bakery es la menos favorita" English: Be very careful when placing an order at "La Favorita Bakery"--the one on Rosecrans and Downey. You pay for a certain amount of bread and *bolillos* (rolls), but they give you less; they aren't honest, and they give you stale bread that isn't fresh. The owner is discriminatory; when you complain, she calls *you* the liar and won't let you speak--she just wants to shout! They shortchange you on the bread. I had a terrible experience at this bakery and with the owner when I complained about receiving stale bread and being shorted on the *bolillos*--they gave me less than I paid for! "La Favorita Bakery" is the *least* favorite.
