The cake was wonderful! It was my first time ordering from Kymoto Co and it became the highlight of my father's 60th birthday. We were all sad to cut the cake because it was so beautiful! The taste was really good as well. Thank you once again! read more

Kymoto Co - Custom Cakes Near Me

This review has been a long time coming. I have ordered cakes twice from Kymoto Co and each time I have been so happy with my order. To start the process, I emailed Kylie and let her know what I envisioned for my cakes with some pictures attached and the date I needed the cakes. Please note that you do have to order a month in advance. Kylie let me know that there is a minimum purchase of 2 cakes when ordering lunchbox cakes so I ordered 2. The actual cake is vanilla flavor and you have the option of choosing vanilla, strawberry, matcha, or cookies and cream for the buttercream filling. For my mom's birthday, I chose a light purple cake with a cute floral design and strawberry buttercream flavor ($40). The second cake for her birthday had Van Gogh's starry night with vanilla buttercream flavor ($45). For my birthday this year, I ordered a light pink cake with a floral design and matcha buttercream flavor ($45). My second lunchbox cake was light purple with an angel hello kitty design and cookies and cream buttercream filling ($50). It's really cool that you are able to customize your cakes, although it does get pricier as you add more details. The lunchbox cakes come in a circle shape and are the perfect size. There's enough cake to share with a couple people, but it's also not too much cake if you wanted to just enjoy it yourself. :) Once you are set on the details of your order and your pickup time, Kylie sends you your invoice. After that, all you have to do is show up at your designated time to the address provided. Kylie includes cake care instructions for you as well to ensure that your cake stays in good condition until you are ready to enjoy it. I have appreciated the quality of the cakes and I love supporting small businesses so I will definitely order again in the future. Thank you Kylie for your beautiful designs and attention to detail. Your cakes have brought a smile to my face each time and my loved ones have also enjoyed! read more

Kymoto Co - Custom Cakes Near Me

My husband ordered a birthday cake for me from Kymoto. The day before the pick up date, he reached out to Kylie to confirm pick up details. She replied that she was no longer able to complete the order. He had to then scramble to find a cake last minute. I understand things come up, but you should inform your customers in advance if you are no longer able to complete their order and not wait until they reach out around the pick up date to let them know. Ironically, months later I reached out to Kylie not knowing she was the same person who fell through on my birthday cake. I requested a cake and even got an email stating she had availability, but later received a follow up email stating she is booked and can't complete my order. This seems to be a pattern of not being able to follow through on orders. That will likely be our last attempt at trying Kylie's cakes. It's important to have a vendor you can rely on when it comes to special occasions and unfortunately, that is not Kymoto Co. read more

I had such a fantastic experience with Kymoto Co! We were celebrating four different birthdays of varying ages, so it was a great opportunity to order custom personalized cakes, and Kymoto Co absolutely delivered. The cakes were a huge hit! I appreciated that she checked the spelling of the cakes during pick up, because I totally misspelled one of the names and she was kind enough to fix it for me. All around wonderful experience and I could not be more grateful for the final results! read more

Kymoto Co - Custom Cakes Near Me

I hired Kylie to make a custom Kuromi cake because a) a regular bakery wouldn't accept an edible image purchased online, for licensing reasons, and b) I didn't want a fondant monstrosity (fonstrosity?) of the sort that other local custom cake designers seemed to specialize in. Kylie's design was tasteful and caringly done, true to the examples on her Yelp page. Plus it was reasonably priced, generously sized, timely and delicious! It tasted homemade (wasn't overly sweet like a typical bakery cake) and stayed moist for a long time. I'll keep Kylie in mind for future custom cake requests! read more

The cutest and tastiest cake!! I ordered a cake for my birthday from Kymoto and was very impressed. We picked up the order from the home bakery, and communication with the bakery was super prompt! She was also accommodating when I pushed my pick up time around half an hour. I got a lunchbox cake with vanilla/strawberry flavor, and it was sooo good! It's definitely on the sweeter side if you compare it with like an Asian bakery cake. However, I love sweet/buttercream cakes so it was perfect for me!! The cake art was SO beautiful, I could not stop staring at it! So much detail for a small cake. The cake is definitely very small and is good for around 2-3 people (4 people if you all have small slices). Considering the size, it is definitely on the pricey side, but that's what you pay for the time they put into it (and to support small business)! I would definitely recommend checking out Kymoto for your next cake purchase :). Can't wait to try more in the future! read more

such an amazing experience with Kymoto Co!! the ordering process was so smooth and she texted me with pictures of the cakes before I picked them up so I was able to make minor changes if I wanted to. I ordered two bento cakes, but unfortunately right as I got home I accidentally flipped one over and messed it up. I was SO devastated, but I reached out to Kylie and she said she would try her best to fix it! When I brought it back to her she was able to make it look brand new again within a couple of hours! I'm so grateful and appreciate her for the extra time she had to spend on it because of my mistake. The cakes were also super delicious, so I'll definitely be ordering more cakes in the future! read more

My girlfriend ordered us a custom cake for our 7 years anniversary and it was super cute! She ordered a simple design but it felt right with this type of cake. Cake was the lunch box cake and it's definitely a shareable size. We ordered a chocolate cake with cookies & cream buttercream. It was very soft and moist cake! We ended up eating it over the course of a few days because it was actually a lot - in the good way! I was super happy with the cake we got. It was very yummy and from what I could tell, the communication between the owner and my girlfriend was also very great! She was super thoughtful and great with responding to our request. Smooth transaction and pick up was very simple too :) I know my girlfriend wants to order another cake because she really wants to try the matcha cake lol. Excited for our next cake from her! read more

Being able to come up with a custom cake design was so fun and Kylie was super prompt in answering any questions I had! Kymoto absolutely brought my custom cake design that I had envisioned to life, I was absolutely thrilled when I got to pick up the finished product - it was the highlight of my birthday! On top of being cute the cake is absolutely delicious! I'm so picky when it comes to cake since I find the grocery store ones to be a bit too sweet, but Kymoto cakes just absolutely nailed it in terms of being not too sweet! read more

Omg I can't even put into words how happy I am I found Kymoto!! I celebrated my 2 year anniversary early just so I could pick up a cake from her (she was out of town for my anniversary). The cake was so beautiful and simple and it tasted amazing! We devoured the whole thing in 10 minutes. I ordered the strawberry cake and it was the perfect sweetness and texture. I also can't believe how reasonably priced the cakes are compared to other places. I can't wait to come back for every event ever. Thank you so much!!! read more

Kymoto Co - Custom 4 inch! Matcha with Vanilla :) - Custom Cakes Near Me

I found Kylie while browsing for a cake on instagram and after looking at her cakes, I decided to place an order! The process of ordering was really easy and she always got back to me in a timely matter. I was a little torn on what design I wanted to do since all the Lakers cakes online were cheesy but I saw that she did a few portrait photos of Kobe & Stephen Curry so I asked if she could do Lebron. I wasn't sure if it was a possibility since the other ones were on larger cakes and I only ordered a lunch box size but to my surprise she said yes! When I tell you nothing could have prepared me for the moment she opened the box....Kylie is so talented and I could not stop smiling on my drive home because of good the cake turned out. I was so happy! Everything about this process was perfect and I can't wait to order more cakes from her! Will definitely be back & referring friends! read more

Kymoto is a small business that specializes in Korean bento box style/lunchbox style mini cakes. Ordering: Booking can be done a week in advance with at least a two day minimum notice, however I highly recommend booking as soon as possible. I noticed that even a week in advance, a lot of time slots for pick up were taken up. Additionally, the business is closed Sundays and Mondays, so plan ahead. When ordering through the website, you can choose from pre-designed selections or pay extra to have a custom cake. I opted for the size 4'' custom cake, with a chocolate/cookies and cream flavor, lettering, and two 3d animals for an extra $10. Total, my order was $35. While this is pricey for a small cake, it may be worth it for special occasions. Pick Up: Pick up is in a nice area in Tustin. The owner was great with being flexible when I had to change my pick up time. Communication was prompt through email. Cake: The cake itself, while a lot smaller than I thought it would be, was one of the cutest I've ever seen. It also tasted great, though very sweet, like your average buttercream cake. The detailing on the 3d animals was impressive. My only points of feedback would be that when I initially indicated what lettering I wanted on the cake, the actual final product reflected a shortened version, which is completely fine. However, I think a heads up would have been nice. Still very happy with the final product of the cake. Overall: This is a professionally run small business based in Tustin offering really cute minimalist cakes. Perfect for any occasion. read more

Kymoto Co - Custom Cakes Near Me

Beautiful and the cutest cakes! This review is long overdue but finally remembered to post it. The first cake I ordered was a customized lunchbox cake for my parents. It turned out SO cute and perfect as a mini holiday gift. Not only was the cake pleasing to the eyes, it tasted delicious as well. I ordered the matcha cake and liked how it was fluffy and not too dense and heavy. The vanilla buttercream was perfectly sweet as well. My parents (especially my mom) loved how it was a portrait of them on the cake and took endless photos. It was so special for them. The second cake I ordered was for my mother in law's birthday and this time, got a customized 6 inch cake. The photo does not do it justice, but the cake was beautiful and so detailed in person. My mother in law loved it and we enjoyed the cake deliciously (I also ordered the matcha one for this too). Each time I emailed Kylie with what I wanted on the cake and each time she delivered flawlessly. Wonderful service and true talent. Will 100% be getting another cake from Kymoto again! read more

I have been ordering custom bento cakes from Kymoto Co for almost a year now and this review is long overdue. Kylie's cakes are delicious and not overly sweet even with the frosting designs. Ordering from her is so easy and she always makes sure to respond in a timely manner. She will work with you to get your custom cake vision come to life. By this point I just tell her what the occasion is or the theme I want and 100% trust her to come up with the perfect design. I have truly said the words "its up to you" and was never disappointed! read more

Found this bakery after a Yelp search for my wife's birthday and was not disappointed. She loved the design and the flavor. The ordering process was online and very easy.

Holy crap - the literal cutest cakes I have ever seen! Once I saw them on IG, I always knew I wanted to try them and they did not disappoint! The flavors were so good without being toooo sweet (obvi still pretty sweet since it's a cake haha). My boyfriend got me a funfetti one my birthday and it was my favorite cake ever (: The box it comes in is a little bit larger than the cake size, so we had to go to a Target nearby and get a bin to fill with ice because the buttercream can melt in this summer heat and it didn't fit in our cooler haha. Shared it with lots of friends later in the day and they all loved the design and flavor. Will definitely be ordering again ! (: ++ the baker is sooo sweet ! They only chatted for a quick moment, but you can tell the love and care that goes into these cakes read more

Kymoto Co - Baby's breath lunchbox cake - Custom Cakes Near Me

Found Kymoto Co while scrolling through Yelp and decided to order some custom cakes as gifts. I love that you can get a cute customized cake starting at $18! Trying to get a custom cake at most bakeries typically requires a larger size and can get pretty expensive depending on the design. There are also pre-designed cakes available starting at $12. So far I've tried the funfetti and strawberry flavors which were both yummy! The cakes remind me of Sprinkles cupcakes, the cake is nice and moist and the frosting is thick. Overall highly recommend Kymoto Co! Ordering was easy online and you can make any special requests about your cake easily. You can pickup for free by the District, or pay for delivery. Can't wait to order more cakes! read more

I discovered Kymoto through one of my friends who found her on Instagram. I was specifically looking for a lunchbox cake for my boyfriends birthday, and I was super happy with my order! The website was very aesthetically pleasing, and super easy to order/navigate. Kylie was super nice and very responsive. Since I ordered a custom cake, I corresponded back and forth regarding the design and details. I was so thankful for the fast replies and the patience when designing my cake. I ordered the vanilla/strawberry and it was really good, moist, and not too sweet! I was really happy with the design and taste of the cake and would definitely recommend to my friends :) read more

Kymoto Co - Strawberry cake - Custom Cakes Near Me

I found out about Kymoto when I was searching for a place to get a cake for my boyfriend. The entire experience was really seamless from start to finish. I was able to order a few days in advance on the website which had a lot of options include 4' and 6' cakes. There were a few pre-made options available. After ordering, I got an email with all the details including pickup address (delivery was also available for an additional fee I believe). A few days before, Kylie the owner messaged me to clarify some details. I was really satisfied since maybe some messages I left were a little vague. I texted her my make and model and informed her that I would be a little late than my original time. She quickly responded and I received my cake within 4 minutes of getting there. The cake itself is really good! I got the matcha/vanilla combo. The buttercream is sweet but the layers really complement it because it's not as sweet. Overall it was a pleasant experience. I look forward to ordering more from Kylie! read more
