    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!!

It is located next to the grocery store Nobhill and there are quick 20min parking in front of the store. We were greeted right when we entered the door and looked at the delicious treats to eat. There is the main seating area and another area in the back to sit down along with sitting outside. It felt upscale and nice. The sign in front of the store had some drink specials and I got a strawberry/matcha drink I think it was called Rose. I asked what was good here and the cashier said the mini almond pastries and other treats in the front. The mini almond pastry was really good and also got a crème brûlée which was really good as well. I would come back again and try their hot teas next time. Delicious treats. Good upscale vice a nice place to catch up with friends!!!

Reached out to Shruthi, who was very responsive from the get go. She was able to accommodate our design and provide suggestions as well. She helped us with a cake and cake pops and also helped get it delivered. The cake looked beautiful and unlike other custom cakes we had ordered in the past (where the look compromised the taste), this one was equally yummy. The kids at the event also liked the cake pops. Overall we are really happy with the cake and service. Definitely recommend Shruthi :)

Shruthi was quick to respond with a sketch that looked really nice. When we picked up the cake it looked just like the original sketch she had sent us. It was packed nicely too to help sign transportation. The cake not only looked amazing but it was absolutely delicious!! Overall we were extremely happy working with Shruthi, starting with original conversation about cake details it was extremely stress free and easy to work with, the aesthetics and cake presentation and the accuracy of what was promised to us and the taste and the timeliness on the delivery of cake!

El pan y su sabor son de otro nivel: demasiado suave y fresco, ideal para los amantes del pan de banana. Y del relleno ni hablamos; la crema de vainilla es tan suave y deliciosa, sin ser demasiado dulce. Uno puede comer una buena porción sin sentirse empalagado, y el hecho de que tenga trozos de fruta fresca solo eleva aún más el sabor. Sin duda, se ha convertido en mi nuevo postre favorito. Mis más sinceros agradecimientos y felicitaciones para las personas que trabajaron detrás de la orden; sin duda, la mejor pastelería. 1000/10.

Once again, they absolutely exceeded my expectations. From the moment I placed the order, the staff truly stepped it up and were nothing but professional, kind, and attentive. The cake itself was beyond anything I imagined-beautiful, moist, flavorful, and absolutely unforgettable. Every single detail lived up to how amazing this bakery is known to be. I ordered the red velvet cake with cream cheese frosting, and it was perfection. So rich, so tasteful, and not overly sweet-just perfectly balanced. Everyone at the baby shower could not stop complimenting the cake and asking where it was from. Sweet Passion's Bakery never disappoints. They consistently deliver excellence, and you can truly taste the love and care put into their cakes. I will absolutely continue using them for all my special occasions and highly recommend them to anyone looking for an incredible cake.

    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!

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.
