    a birthday cake
    Sheila T.

    Beautiful cakes, excellent service, friendly communication. Found her IG page doing a search for cakes in San Jose! Really happy I gave her a try! It was really easy to just DM her what you are thinking about getting, she is very clear about what she is going to make for you. We let her know how many people and what flavors we liked and she gave us a suggestion on the size! We had more than enough cake leftover! We love the cake so much! So moist and perfect amount of sweetness. The level of care she goes to make sure transportation is smooth. I definitely recommend checking her out!

    Marlina you absolutely nail it every time. The amount of creativity does not even compare to how great and fresh the cakes you have made for not only my daughter but other customers. The packaging and drop off is even as beautiful as the cake. You think her cakes out beautiful the taste is unexplainable. Thank you for your service.

    Marlina made our wedding cake and I cannot say enough good things about her and her baking! She made us a 2 tier cake with 2 flavors - vanilla with Nutella filling and chocolate with dulce de leche filling. Both were PHENOMENAL. She was so sweet when dropping it off and gave instructions for how to best cut it. We gave her inspiration photos and creative freedom and we loved the cake that we got! Absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for high quality baked goods. Marlina, thank you for making our special day a memorable one, everyone loved it!

    We needed a cake for my husbands 40th Grammy-themed birthday party and referred to this bakery by my friend Emily . Marlina was so quick to respond and was so polite! She answered all my questions, gave suggestions, and gave us a quick and reasonable quote! She was so knowledgeable! On the day of the party she even delivered the cake to our home for a reasonable fee and gave me tips on how to take the cake out of the box. The cake looked INCREDIBLE! We received so many compliments and it was exactly how we imagined. Not only did this cake look amazing, it tasted so yummy! We are so happy we went with them and would definitely order a cake from them again for another theme party! Thank you, Marlina!

    My family has ordered many cakes from Marlina! Every single cake we have received have been nothing short of perfection. Our favorite flavor is the lavender with honey frosting! Order a cake from her! You will not regret it!!

Upon entering, I was really impressed with how clean and nice the decor was. The tables and chairs were really upscaled and I felt like I was visiting a fancy french style cafe. There was even a small quiet room for those who needed to do some computer work and outdoor seating. The staff was really great and knowledgeable about all the products. The display case showed all of the pastries they had available. I went to the counter and ordered a little of everything, just so that I could get a good feel for it. The only table service is they bring the order to you. I had an Apple Turnover, Ube Sesame Tart, Lemon tart, and a Mini Almond Croissant. These were house made and really fresh and excellent. They serve various coffee and espressos, If you are looking for a nice relaxing cafe with great pastries-Marvel is the way to go!

It looked so pretty and we had high hopes. We took the option of adding on a fondant banner for $5 in the store and settled on berry and vanilla. Whoever was helping us was really not much help at all. I guess at least she was honest, but she didn't know what any of the cakes tasted like and if it was buttercream or whipped cream. The cake itself was dry and hard: the texture was oh so wrong. I don't know if it was old, frozen for too long, or some odd ingredients? But for $65 for a small 6", it was very disappointing. We also got the small bisou and a small napoleon. Better than the cake, but still just ok.

    Update Review: First things first, I'd like to clarify that…read morethe cake and filling was indeed what I ordered. Secondly, I have to give credit where it's due- Sweets By Design totally came through when it came to taste and wow factor (minus the drip design)!! Cake was fantastic [MOIST & DELICIOUS] and I was surprised by my in-laws approval as well. No joke, they are harsh critics when it comes to desserts and to see them enjoy every bite was definitely a SLAM DUNK. I legit couldn't cut the cake fast enough!! On a side note, thank you Nicole for immediately reaching out to me regarding my disappointment. She handled the situation in a prompt and professional manner. I appreciated her genuineness and heartfelt concern about my issues. 3 stars overall but one additional star for Nicole's customer service. She truly cares about her clients. Business is booming for SBD for obvious reasons and my only warning would be the glitch in communication. Be aware that you may need to reach out and send a few reminder pokes. ---------------------------------------------------- I really wanted to like this small business, I really had high hopes. Unfortunately Sweets By Design is an absolute bust!! After a not so good first impression with SBD during my baby shower planning, I still wanted to give Nicole and her business a try. Since we were never really able to celebrate the birth of my daughter the way we wanted, my husband and I wanted to make her 6 month [[half]] bday a little bit sweeter. I decided to reach out and see if Nicole could help me with our cake. To start off, the issues with communication was just as bad as the 1st time around. I reached out to the business via Instagram on 9/26 and got a response back quickly. I informed the cake's pick up date and sent over 3 designs that I was potentially looking at. I ended up settling with the pastel, drip, macaron, & sprinkles design [see attached photo]. A quote was promised the following day [9/27] and NOTHING WAS RECEIVED. Nicole did reach out 2 days later with the pricing and I was ready to place my order and get the ball rolling. NO RESPONSE. I dm again asking for a cake flavor listing so I can finalize the order and process whatever cost that is needed. AGAIN, CRICKETS! I am forced to reach out yet again on 9/30 asking if she was going to be able to make the cake adding that important details and payment had not yet been able to be finalized. At that point I finally get a response. The entire process of working with this baker is just more stressful than it should. An email was sent to confirm cake info and the filling listed was incorrect. Then 2 days prior to pick up, I have to message Nicole again about an address as to where I need to pick up my order. She then sends another revised email. Cake- My husband was left with the job of picking up the cake since I have an infant to attend to. He comes home with a cake that is nice BUT NOT WHAT I ORDERED. The drip design was nowhere to be found. At this point, I question whether or not the cake & the filling is even correct. I am super let down by what was delivered, even after all the detailed discussion with Nicole. I have dm'd her through IG & sent her texts regarding my disappointment so we'll see how that goes. I'll update my review if/when I hear back from someone regarding this matter.

My virtual baby shower was boba themed so my friend sent a picture of one of the graphics my sister made for me for the baby shower as inspiration for the boba cake. The cake (picture attached) looked just like the graphic and was perfect! I liked that she used an actual boba straw for the top and that it was very detailed and cute. Everyone who was able to see it online thought it was a perfect boba cake. For flavorings, my friend and husband chose the lemon with raspberry (I think) filling. It was one of the hottest days in the Silicon Valley (over 100 degrees) but the cake kept fine in the car and sitting out. The cake itself was moist, not too sweet and had the right amount of lemon flavoring. The raspberry part was also very good. Overall, no complaints about the texture or flavor of the cake. I'm not the hugest fan of fondant so I'm not the best judge but the overall icing was fine as well. Overall, very impressed with the style, design and execution of the cake. The flavor was also good!

    It saddens me that I have to write this review because I have received 3 wonderful cakes from…read moreDayanna. Also, she was so accommodating by making this cake on a Thursday when her availability is strictly weekends. However, if I knew that asking for an accommodation would mean my needs wouldn't have been met I would have looked elsewhere. I ordered a 7 inch buttercream cake but instead received fondant which went uneaten. I went back to review the invoice she sent and I realized there was a portion that said fondant but it also said buttercream so I just ignored it because I had no problems with the previous cakes I had received. This cake was for my friends son so I was so sad when they complained about the toughness of the fondant. I should have contacted her prior to make sure it would be buttercream but I believe she also could have let me know she would have been diverging from what I requested. Especially because $220 isnt cheap :(. The inside of the cake was great!

    I was really looking forward to the custom cake I ordered, especially since I provided a reference…read morephoto for size comparison. Unfortunately, the cake I received was much smaller than expected. The sizing descriptions on the order form didn't reflect what was delivered, and it didn't match the scale shown in the reference image I shared, nor did she let me know that it wouldn't look the same. The cake itself lacked many details of the reference cake and it was also delivered late, making me believe that she spent extra time on final touches. To my surprise, the cake was very far off from what I had asked for. I tried reaching out to provide feedback but I didn't receive a response.
