Best vegan cupcakes in town! So glad they have vegan options. They even do custom vegan orders! Won't go anywhere else after coming here. 10/10 worth it! They also did a custom vegan slicer cake and cupcakes for my wedding. It turned out wonderful! My guests LOVED the cupcakes! read more

My family ordered 3 pies for Thanksgiving and all of the pies had ridiculously hard and dry crust that was impossible to cut. What a disappointment! Was the crust old or missing an ingredient? Store bought pies are much better quality. read more

Hands down the best cupcakes in chico! This establishment offers an exquisite array of flavor combinations, fresh ingredients, and are beautifully decorated to boot. Every flavor pairing tastes meticulously crafted to suit anyone's pallet and you can sense the passion that went into every creation. Every delivery comes in bio degradable boxes and is presented so sweetly with hand stamped bags to add a personal touch. I highly recommend you try anything off the menu, as it changes daily, and treat yourself to a luxurious experience. read more

We hired Lovely Layers for our wedding. Of course, ahead of time, we met with the owner to discuss what we wanted. While we were talking she mentioned that she had a ton of wooden crates and decor we could use. She would drop it off in a Tupperware bin and then we would just return it. We got to taste the flavors we were interested in, and the prices seemed decent. The day of the wedding, the person who delivered did not ask anyone where to place everything. She ended up putting them in the wrong spot. Then when asked to move them where we wanted them, she said she didn't have enough time because she had other deliveries. On top of that, she didn't bring any decor, only used what we already had. When it came time to eat the cupcakes, no one had a clue what flavors were available. I assumed she would have small labels, or something to let guests know flavors. Now it is almost our one year anniversary, and we go in to order our cake (a month in advance), and we are told that they are booked and can't do it. I am extreme disappointed in this company. As my father runs his own small business, I cannot even imagine how they are turning business away. From now on, I will be using other bakeries around town. I suggest anyone who would like custom orders for weddings, anniversaries, birthdays, etc. find somewhere else to go as well. read more

Amazing got a six pack of all the flavors at chocolate fest in Paradise, every single cup cake was amazing!!!!!! Soft moist and bursting with flavor even the gluten free and vegan. Highly recommend read more

Ordered a cake for my 1 year old. After my sibling picked it up and brought it home, it was nothing like what I initially ordered. I called and the guy would not let me speak to the manager. I was very unsatisfied that they couldn't do something for me, at least a gift card or something! Worst customer experience ever! Obviously your staff cannot handle any communication! They need some customer service training that includes listening skills! I will never go back again. I will take my business elsewhere. read more

Delicious food , gorgeous wedding cake the lack of stars is in personable service, gone 2x's and felt flustered asking questions. Customer service in the am should be friendly and accommodating didn't feel the love. Cold brew tastes good but the cold service is a turn off!!! We asked questions regarding coffe and refills and were totally confused. We ended up ordering more than we wanted and became flustered when the server became quick and annoyed. This was my 2nd visit as i go to this neighborhood weekly, and both visits i was treated with crummy attitudes. My wedding cake came from there so i thought it would be a good experience. read more

Decided to give this place a try for a cake order since their cupcakes are delicious, but they have a bunch of idiots working there. They messed up on the cake for my son and it cost almost $100! The guy I talked to didn't even let me speak to the manager! What a douche. Never will I order here again. Make sure that when you place an order you talk to someone that actually understand what you are asking for. Maybe it'll help to draw them a picture and double check on the price too. read more

I am convinced that this is the best cupcake/cake bakery in town. And, I actually think their gluten-free vegan cupcakes taste even better than traditional cupcakes! On top of that, the customer service is great. After a glitch on a recent order, the baker called me personally and apologized and then quickly made it right. On top of just being the best place for cupcakes, the folks there are top notch too. I've done several orders for large gatherings and wouldn't hesitate to do more in the future. Thanks for satisfying the sweet tooth of so many in Chico! read more

Yes wonderful they all kind of yummy desserts. Cupcakes, cookies, cinnamon rolls, brownies, scones and savory foods

Amazing little jewel!! But first coffee... the sign that made us stop on the way to an event. Yes, it spoke to my soul and my coffee levels had not yet met the standard of speaking, training, and peopling for the day. Peets coffee made perfectly as ordered! Not always as easy as it sounds. Friendly service, elegant clean dinning area, and pastries to drool over. Back in town in 6 months and one of those yummy treats is mine all mine. Seriously almost hugged her!! Great news they cater and do weddings!! If you're on town don't miss this!! If you need an attitude adjustment add an extra shot. It works!!! I will definitely be back again and again!! Thanks for bringing me coffee joy!! read more

The cake we ordered tasted great, but it was very minimally decorated for my baby shower. The cookies we ordered with them looked beautiful, even though they didn't really match the cake, but tasted flavorless and were hard as a rock. They seemed like they were a week old and my guests couldn't even eat them. Very disappointed, ESPECIALLY considering how expensive this was. read more

Best Vegan & Gluten Free Cupcakes!!!! Super yummy, flavors change daily. Always friendly staff!

I have purchased cupcakes from this establishment 3 times. The first time they were WONDERFUL, the best ever. the second time and again this time, they are very dry. The frosting is still very good on most of them. Customer service is good, it is a cute little place. I am hopeful the disconnect can be found and remedied to get these cupcakes back to tasting like my first experience read more

Emily and Lovely Layers made my dream wedding cake come true! It was as beautiful as it was delicious. All of my wedding guests enjoyed the unique flavors we selected, which were: Strawberry Cheesecake Cake, Triple Chocolate Mocha, and White Cake with Raspberry for the top layer. If I lived in Chico I would be in her shop everyday! Thanks Emily! read more

I ordered a cake and cupcakes for my son's first baby shower and had an inspiration piece I shared with them to give them an idea of the "wow factor" I was looking for. I don't feel like I got exactly what I went in for. I asked for a two-tier and got a single tier. They were very clear they do not do specialty designs anymore now that they do NOT have a cake artist who can do fondant-type work. So I had to settle for very simple choices (polka dots). I still went with them anyway. Cake flavor was ok. Color was off (supposed to be gray but looked a little more purple once it was outside in the light) and I had to buy my own topper from etsy. When I arrived to pick up the cake and cupcakes I received a single tier, not a two tier. My fault was not being knowledgable of costs and I SHOULD HAVE REALIZED they did not charge me for two tiers, only one. I bought everything for over $130 and just assumed the staff person calculated it correctly. I should have asked for a better breakdown. I gave a 3 because flavor was good but it was a dissapointing miss for the wow factor I wanted. read more

See all

Lovely to work with. Brooke made the process of ordering from out of town easy. Even created a special flavor (chocolate Porter). Took a photo I emailed them and improved on it. All night we heard compliments on such a gorgeous cake. Pricing competitive for professional bakery. read more

Emily is a wonderful baker, cake decorator and business owner. Her passion and creativity is what makes her products shine above other bakeries in Chico. My wedding cake was so special. The final product/display was gorgeous and exceeded our expectations. The design and flavor of the cake was perfect. All of our guests wanted to know where we got our cake and many of them are now loyal customers. I always send my Norcal friends and family to Lovely Layers whenever they need a custom cake. Emily's cakes have and will always be a special part of my families celebrations. Her desserts are a must at every birthday and holiday. Every time I go home I make sure to drop by the bakery and I'm always so happy to see how busy they are. I'm proud to say that I support this local and female owned Chico business! Keep up the great work, ladies! read more

Saw this store on doordash and couldn't say no to the maple glazed cinnamon roll. I have to say the croissant breakfast sandwich I got was not worth 8$, the bacon was over cooked and it had something similar to Kraft cheese on it. The cinnamon roll was huge and delicious but a little dry & I wish it had more maple like the picture showed. Overall wasn't the best but I would give them another shot read more

We loved our cake! It was so beautiful and tasted delicious! Emily did a beautiful job decorating it with gorgeous farmers market flowers. read more

Lovely Layers Cakery - Such a perfect day! Thank you lovely layers for making it delicious :) - Bakeries Near Me - Chico, California

I booked Lovely Layers for my wedding a year in advance (May 2016) and was excited to have them as one of my vendors for the wedding. Our cake tasting was so easy and the owner, Emily, was able to really get a good picture of what our wedding would be like. The flavors were phenomial and surprisingly the easiest wedding appt I've had thus far. Cannot wait to see the wedding cake and cupcakes we ordered!!! Thanks Lovely Layers and Emily for making this part of wedding planning so easy!!! (And delicious!) read more

I have ordered cupcakes from here twice through door dash and both times they were underwhelming. The cake is really dry and it seems like all of their icing is cream cheese based, which is good, but I would prefer a classic buttercream on more of the flavors. read more

I give them 5 stars for taste for sure. I've had their cupcakes and cakes and it's moist, not too overly sweet and the frosting is to die for. But my experience when I put in my order for a cake was lacking. The owner (I assume) felt rushed when I put my order in. She wasn't very helpful and didn't really seem interested in guiding me through it all. read more

AMAZING!!! I collaborated with the owner Emily for my grandparents anniversary cake and I couldn't have been happier. She was very helpful and I was able to do everything over email from Los Angeles. I didn't get to eat the cake myself but everyone said it was fabulous. IT LOOKED PERFECT!!!! Thanks for your help! read more

This is one of the best bakeries in town! My friend ordered cupcakes from here for my birthday recently and they were delicious! They also have vegan and gluten free options as well. I will definitely order here for my next event. read more

That was the easiest order I have ever made over the phone. I ordered two dozen Frozen themed cupcakes for my daughter's birthday on Friday (yes, this friday) and as easy as pie they took my order, I let them know when I would be picking up and that was that! Now i just have to wait and see how they taste and how awesome their service is when i pick up on friday. I can't wait to see what they look like! I trust they'll be sparkly, blue and icey just as we would expect them to be for an ice queen! Ill be sure to update my review once they are all devoured- With pictures! read more

I am so thrilled that I chose Lovely Layers for my wedding cake!!! We went with the coconut cake, and let me tell you, it may have been the biggest hit of the wedding! Everyone is still talking about how delicious the cake and cookies were! We also did a couple dozen of the snicker doodles and a couple dozen of the gluten free cookies. Truly delicious. I asked to have some llamas surfing on the cake (reflecting our personalities), and I didn't really give any direction because I trusted the talent at LL and for good reason ... Our surfing llamas were AMAZING!!!! I was so overjoyed with how our desserts came out. Thank you Lovely Layers for really nailing it. Your attention to detail and creativity really added some special flare to our wedding. I'm in awe of your talent! If you live in Chico, choose Lovely Layers for your event! You will not regret it. read more

My baby shower was a success! Lovely layers was able to provide me with an amazing cake after providing them with two cake designs I wanted into one. They did it perfect and even added little sunflowers for the theme! Strawberry cheesecake was the flavor and boy was it yummy! I would definitely recommend lovely layers to anyone in the area or willing to drive 40 minutes like I did just to get what you want. Also they make really yummy cupcakes of course!

I ordered a cake about a week ago for my daughter-in-law's 40th birthday I paid for in advance over the phone. I came yesterday to pick it up at approximately 2 to 3 minutes after 4:00 PM they close at four. I understand that this is my error but I received no phone call when I went to pick it up today the day after the party Young man apologized and said they usually call 30 minutes before they close but this cake was in a different refrigerator. As I said I know that it is mostly my air for not paying attention to the time But a discount on the next Cake we purchased would have been nice. Or some type of compensation do you feel if I had to pay for it in advance over the phone they would have definitely called. The cake does look very beautiful but it is a little late Cheryl Luttrell read more

Everything at this place is great from there breakfast burritos to the wedding cakes, from the tea to the mochas.

Only stopped in for cupcakes a couple times. They are the bomb! Flavors changes all the time so you never now what flavor explosion you are going to get have never been disappointed yet. Keep up the great work! read more
