    Cutest details exactly what I pictured
    Monika B.

    Honestly, I walked into the store the first time yesterday. I was in need of a cake and cupcakes for the next day for my daughter's 9th birthday. Totally last minute which is so difficult. The sweetest husband and wife duo honestly they were so sweet and accommodating. They made sure to get all details of everything so detail oriented. They really went above and beyond and made it so special. Thank you so much for your sweetness, your amazing attitude and amazing customer service. Can't wait for more orders and to refer people to you guys!

    Custom made cupcakes

    I found this place on Google and I contacted them and texted them the picture of the cupcakes that I wanted for my sister and I only really needed four cupcakes so I don't really need that much. It was just more for the decorative and they were so nice and the man that took the order was really nice and helpful. WhenI went to go pick it up, the cupcakes were exactly like the pictures that I've sent to him or even better and the cupcakes even taste really good too they were carrot cake flavor, and it was amazing. My sister really liked it and I highly recommend this place and I will definitely order from here again thank you.

    Very nice cake & pastry shop. I ordered a cake from them kinda last minute and showed them a picture. They were able to completely replicate the photo I sent them and make the perfect cake. I wish the font on the cake also matched the photo but other than that it was perfect. The cake itself was delicious too. Also, the people who own this shop are really kind and genuine. I appreciate them and will definitely get a cake from them again in the future.

    Custom lion cupcakes

    I ordered custom cupcakes for a birthday party. The price was good, and the man who took my order was easy to work with. I sent some reference photos, and he made suggestions. I was astounded by the quality of the final product, and the taste. I would definitely order custom cakes/cupcakes here again!

    Delicious selection of different types of pastry. Clean location and easy to find out. Parking on the street and back lot. Everything was freshly baked the day I visited. Returning soon to try more!

    They did it again! Another year another beautiful cake! If you have yet to try Lida's cake and pastry you have to! She is so talented! Not only does she design the cakes beautifully, it is also so so delicious. Everyone loved it! Highly recommend.

    I asked Lida's Cake and Pastry to make a specialty birthday cake and gave them an inspiration photo. They absolutely nailed this cake, it was even better than the original. It overall tasted amazing! I did vanilla cake with mocha and banana filling. I 100% recommend getting your birthday cakes from Lida's Cake and Pastry! It really made my 17th birthday party more special. Everybody at my party complimented it! So beautiful. I also got a separate sheet cake to serve my guests on day 1 of my 2 day party which was a great idea! This way I could take photos with this cake for both parties.

    Grand Opening! (feat. chocolate cupcake)
    Naira M.

    Came here for the grand opening and I love this bakery! Quaint little bakery with lots of delicious looking pastries. I tried the carrot cake, red velvet, and chocolate cupcakes as well as the sliced chocolate cake, vanilla roulette, chocolate biscuit cake and they were all so delicious! The staff is super friendly and helpful with choosing pastries. Highly highly recommend! I can't wait for them to expand their menu and try some more from them!

    I am so impressed with Lida's Cake and Pastry. I called to ask about a turtle cake for my boyfriend's birthday. The process was quick and I was provided with multiple options for the cake. When I picked up the cake, I was absolutely blown away. It was perfect! I had requested a fondant turtle be placed on top of the cake, and when I arrived there were two turtles! They also had great attention to detail and had done their research on the exact type of turtle (a red eared slider). I couldn't have asked for a better cake. Not only was it beautiful, but it also tasted fantastic! From here on out, I will always go to Lida's for all of my cake and pastry needs.

    Heart Cake

    The customer service here is incredible. The staff is extremely helpful and accommodating. They made the exact cake I wanted on short notice. The cake was fresh and fluffy, and everyone loved it. Highly recommend this bakery.

    77th birthday cake

    I have been ordering my cakes for all my events from Lida. At every one of my events my guests ask me where the cake is from. My favorite is her white cake with fresh strawberry filling. Lida is so kind and always capable of creating exactly what I ask her. I highly recommend using their service for your events!

    Rice crispy covered in chocolate and decorated as a thanksgiving turkey

    5/5 Stars! A friend recommended this little mom and pop shop and i couldn't be happier. I took the rice crispy and cake pop turkey treats to a thanksgiving party and everyone loved it! Very cute and more importantly very tasty! Friendly service too. Definitely recommend it.

    Old Town Pasadena, California…read more Next to Nana's Green Tea, Delight is A very good French bakery, no breads, but Delight feeds the pastry hunger in me -- all the pastries, cakes and gelati are excellent. There is a smallish macaron counter with popular flavors and can be boxed up to bring home. The house made sandwiches (focaccia), breakfasts and lunch items are very good to excellent also and with great prices. With about 15 tables (a couple of tables for larger groups), there's a steady stream of people here and it would be a matter of time when lines will form out the door. Service is super attentive. The minute you come in the person behind the counter comes to assist. Ohhh almost forgot, savory pastries (caprese and artichoke and cheese) are super well-made and the crusts delightfully light and crispy :-) I keep coming back. End of Yelp.

    We were on our way somewhere else when I smelled something buttery in the air. I told my partner,…read more"I have to eat this smell," and we followed our noses to Delight Pastry. The large display of pastries is sure to dazzle, and we spend a good minute looking over the multitude of offerings in the case. Service was fast and efficient, and we sat ourselves. CAPRESE DANISH: 5/5. Perfectly balanced flavors. Tomatoes were fresh and the balsamic was bright. HAM AND CHEESE CROISSANT: 4/5. I know it would have been SO ood if it were warmed up and the cheese were a little melty. KOUIGN AMANN: 3/5. My favorite pastry. Perhaps a personal preference, but I wish the sugar were a little more caramelized. It also was not as rich as I am accustomed to this pastry being.

I was…read morein Pasadena so I went to this location but it's nice to know that have multiple locations around the city. The Pasadena location was nice and spacious and very clean and cute. They have a nice large parking space in the back as well. I went on a Sunday around 6:30 pm so it was pretty empty, which was nice. I think the bigger crowds are earlier in the day. They close at 7 pm so I just made it. Luckily they still had a few cupcakes left and plenty of the cakes left. I decided to get a slice of their old fashioned chocolate cake, and 4 cupcakes to go. I got a red velvet, a chocolate, a vanilla, and a mocha cupcake. Everything was delicious but I have to say that the old fashioned chocolate cake slice was my favorite. They give you a ginormous piece too which is nice when you have that craving. All the cakes were very moist and the buttercream was sweet but not crazy sweet which I really appreciated. Overall, it was a great experience. I can't wait to come back again and run some of their other cakes and cupcakes!

Once you thaw it then you're tasting something you would not feed your child. Would've been happier with any super market cake. They had a huge line out the door so we thought this cake is gonna be good! It was embarrassing.

    Nobody does it quite like Karena. I met her 4-5 years ago…read morewhen I desperately needed a cake for graduation and she not only made the cake in a two days notice, she completely blew my mind! If I didn't move to San Diego, she would still be my consistent cake lady. I absolutely love her! When I first ordered, she had followed-up asking if the cakes were up to par with the taste and if they lasted well. I had to say, not only was it pretty to look at - it didn't taste bad either! Usually it's a sacrifice for one or the other! I've ordered over 6+ cakes with her and will definitely continue whenever I'm in the area. The amount of buttercream flavoring choices and real fruit used inside the cake... you really can't go wrong if you order from Karena!

    Have you ever looked up beautiful pieces of artwork and wondered how the artist did it? Even more…read moreso, if that artwork could be placed in your hand and be given as a gift? Karena is incredibly talented. I can't even begin to talk about my wonderful experience. I showed her a few pictures of inspiration and she told me what she could and couldn't do. Once we agreed on an inspiration picture and idea she put my specifications to work and low and behold, an absolute masterpiece! The detail on each part of the artwork was outstanding. The person I gifted it to was ecstatic. If you take a look at each picture printed and cut out perfectly, the teacup molded to the perfect size, each colored detail intricately placed, absolutely every single thing done with prose and care. Talk about a passion for what she does. You absolutely won't be disappointed. Talk about a date, talk about a time, and she will work it out with you. She communicates incredibly quickly and will be sure to make you happy!
