To say that what I envisioned wasn't nearly as incredible as what she created would be an understatement. It was perfect in every way. She didn't attempt to upsell me on a larger cake or additional cupcakes which I really appreciated. A few months ago, I reached back out to Angie for my daughter's first birthday cake. Again, I gave Angie a rough idea of what I wanted and the end result was absolutely exceptional! Guests ooh'ed and ahh'd over how beautiful it was. Now a pretty cake is one thing, but the other fantastic element to Angie's cakes is that they taste divine! Moist, delicious and something I felt proud to serve to our guests.

Both ladies were very nice, sweet, (just like the bakery), and eager to help me. There was a line, but not too long. They were about to close in an hour and both ladies cleared that line so fast. Great job!! Prices were also very affordable according to whatever they had in their displays. I had a major sweet tooth, and their delectable, decadent, aroma of their pastries was very hard to resist. They also have hot and cold beverages of every kind and a cute sitting area inside the bakery. I bought us some Gata, (an Armenian pastry). They had 2 different kinds. One with nuts in them, and one without. I got the one that had no nuts and was semisweet. I also got box of variety of sweets, that included: 2 Chocolate Eclairs, 3 Cream Puffs, & 2 Strawberry Shortcake topped with pieces of almonds. Let's not forget their beautiful, yummy cupcakes. I got 6 (variety pack). They can customize your cakes to your liking for any one of your special occasions. The place was very chic, classy and elegant. Bakery was very clean, with some Armenian/Russian music playing overhead. They can even make beautiful baskets for you to give away to someone you love, on their special occasions. They have cakes, cupcakes, chocolates, candy, variety of cookies, full cases of pastries, a platter of nuts, included various nuts. Parking, also street and metered parking. The only downside was that I wish they had an outdoor/patio seating. Next time I am in Glendale, I will definitely visit this lovely, beautiful bakery. Thank you all very much!

Thank you for your response. I appreciate that you took the time to reply, but I believe your…read moreresponse misses the main issue. Good business etiquette is simple: when a business makes a mistake, it should acknowledge it, correct it immediately, sincerely apologize to the customer, and ensure the customer leaves satisfied. That builds trust and demonstrates accountability. Instead, much of your response focuses on explaining that the price tag may have been moved accidentally by staff or customers. Those are explanations, not accountability. This was one of the last two pieces left in the display, and the incorrect price tag should have been noticed well before my purchase. As I also stated in my response to the Agricultural Commissioner of Weights & Measures Inspector, I am almost certain that after I shared my experience and reviews on social media, the pricing discrepancies would have been already corrected. If that is the case, I genuinely hope those changes help make sure future customers are charged accurately and fairly. Regarding the Kyiv cake, my concern is relatively minimal compared to the pricing issue. It simply did not taste as good as it used to. It lacked the freshness and flavor we had previously enjoyed, and it tasted somewhat stale. This is the least of my concern. What concerns me most is the lack of accountability. Businesses earn customer loyalty by owning their mistakes, not by offering explanations for why they may have happened. A sincere apology, immediate correction and a commitment to making things right would have been a much more appropriate response.

Searching Yelp, I found Ruby Bakery, and I hit the cake jackpot. I selected one of the vanilla strawberry cakes they had on display, the staffer quickly and expertly added a "happy birthday" message, and I paid a very reasonable price for a cake that ended up feeding over 20 people. For a small additional amount -- I think under $1 -- I bought a plastic cake cutter, since of course I'd forgotten to bring one. The cake was a huge hit! Light, flavorful, fresh-tasting. It disappeared quickly. (We have had two prior birthdays where people brought in sheet cakes --from other bakeries -- that ended up getting mostly thrown away.) I wish I were closer to Eagle Rock, as Ruby Bakery would be my go-to for celebrations. Those of you fortunate enough to live nearby, I don't think you can get a better cake anywhere in LA, especially not at this price. They do not take credit cards, but Zelle works!

Today, 11 July 2026, my wife is craving Ice Box cake, well to our surprise is frozen as a rock! I thought pastries, specially personal size pastries should be ready to eat at the moment of purchase. In all fairness, the store seems like a shell of what it once was, inside, it looks as if it's a bad day away from the store shutting down, which I am really sure it's in the not so distant horizon. Selling frozen pastries is bad for business, it lead me to believe your inventory is sitting in the freezer for days and who knows how fresh it is. So, with that in mind, I will never eat at Lark's bakery, its pastors are gross, plain and simple!

From the moment I walked in, I was greeted by the delightful aroma of freshly baked goods, which made my mouth water! The selection of cakes and pastries is simply amazing -from the classic chocolate cake to the exotic mango cheesecake , there is something for everyone.Each dessert is beautifully crafted and perfectly executed, with just the right balance of sweetness and flavor. I also appreciate the fact that the cake house uses high- quality ingredients in their receipts, which adds to the overall taste and texture of the desserts. Overall, I highly recommend this beautiful cake house to anyone with a sweet tooth. read more
