    Tres Leches decadent: Tres Leches Cake
    Manuel G.

    To me, the signature of a good event is not only the food but also the cake. I must say we need more bakeries out there. I searched throughout Downey and found this wonderful cake shop, Marissa's. They have samples of their chocolate, vanilla and tres leches. The Tres leches was definitely my top choice for my cake order! The staff were polite and worked with me on the design of the cake. The guests at my event specifically complimented the cake, saying how moist and delicious it was and asked where I got it from. I was very pleased and relieved as again, having a delicious cake is a necessity to me for a great event.

    ABSOLUTELY did an amazing job with my son cake for his 10th birthday! He wanted a Mario theme cake this year and my go to person I usually go to each year happened to be out of states. Unfortunately, I had to dig up some gold spots and I'm soooo happy I find the gem in the wall. They make cakes, cake pops, sweet treats, cookies and much more. Any occasion you can think of, they can bake and make for you! The ambiance of this place is cute and tiny and has a lot of eye candy goodies to eye from. I will be coming back if I ever have any special event occurring :)

    My daughter picked up this cake for her fathers 50th birthday . As you can see there are plenty of flaws in this cake and my daughter expressed how unhappy she was with the result . From the print of the picture to the yellow spot to the directions she left and they didn't follow. They expressed there was nothing they can do. She still wasn't feel right and she walked back in and asked to speak to the owner only to be screamed at and told that there's nothing she can do. No refund no discount on a future order. Nothing !!! The owner greeted my daughter with no respect and made her feel so indifferent . There is no way that the owner can be proud of what she delivered . What a sad outcome to a so called high ranked cake business ! Do better!!!!!

    Cake with Kuromi topper

    What a blessing and life saver Marissa's Cakes is! I needed a cake within 3 hours because my previous cake maker bailed on me last minute! I asked for any cake that could be decorated with my daughter's birthday colors since I had the cake topper already! The cake came out beautifully and in time for my baby's birthday party! Thank you again!!!

    I'm so impressed with Marissa's Birthday Cake everyone LOVED it. Excellent customer service I'll be ordering cakes from here on out.

    Absolutely AMAZING!!! The cake was delicious, so moist I recommend the coconut cake with piña colada filling it was so mouthwatering! Great costumer service, Griselda was very friendly and attentive Marissa's cake exceeded my expectations! Thank you so much for everything!

    My simple gender reveal cake. I added the decorations.

    The family absolutely loves this place! The place speaks for itself, "Craving" ice cream this place…read morewill definitely satisfy your "Cravings"! Unfortunately we moved out of state but when we visit family in Cali. This place is a MUST visit! Ice here is just that good!! Customer service here is top notch !

    Update: They're no longer affiliated with Fivestars!…read more I've since gone two additional times to try their waffle bites. My last trip was kind of spontaneous because I suddenly got a Fivestars reward that day for these waffle bites. However, when I arrived, I was looking for the Fivestars tablet only to be met by a Clover tablet instead. It felt like I went through a time warp because the employee working behind the register didn't seem to have any idea what I was trying to say regarding Fivestars, though he did notice a little trifold card on the front counter mentioning Fivestars. I asked if he could get his manager so I could explain, and even show, him my Fivestars reward. The reward said "already accepted", which he almost thought meant I had redeemed it already, but if that were the case, then it would have said "already redeemed". Given that they've now done away with Fivestars, I'm not too surprised he may have gotten the words "accepted" confused with "redeemed", but luckily, he was happy enough to honor it for me. The employee who assisted me was very helpful, though he did ask me to repeat the topping and the drizzle that I wanted. I chose the Strawberry Cheesecake flavor ice cream with Fruity Pebbles toppings and a Strawberry drizzle on top. Since I had already tried the cookie flavors before, I figured I'd try the fruity flavors this time around. He said he needed about 5 minutes to prepare my waffle bites, which were presented a little different than last time. Last time, I got the Cookie Butter flavor with *Cookie* Crisp and Peanut *Butter* (see what I did there?), and it came in a small plastic takeout container. This one came in a large plastic cup, and I'm thinking the logistics may have changed a ton between my last two visits. I did appreciate how the employee asked if I wanted the waffles on top of or beneath the ice cream before making the waffle bites; I chose on top. He also asked if I'd like powdered sugar on top, to which I agreed. Unfortunately, neither of the waffle bites I got from my last two visits impressed me that much. As a matter of fact, the only thing that impressed me was the strawberry drizzle. Everything else fell kind of flat. While generous in size for the $8 price tag, the Cookie Butter and the Strawberry Cheesecake ice cream didn't really taste like these flavors at all! For whatever reason, the peanut butter didn't add much flavor, but the strawberry drizzle added a lot! How even?! In short, the waffle bites weren't that much of an upgrade from the ice cream scoop that I had on my first visit. I'm willing to say "too much good was no good" here. The waffles themselves were good, but they can only do so much when a flavored ice cream doesn't even taste like that flavor. It's worth noting that on my penultimate visit, when I got the Cookie Butter Waffle Bites, I saw two employees behind the front counter who were ready to take my order. I asked them to explain what the waffle bites were, but it took them a couple of tries to actually understand what I was asking. From what I gathered, the waffle bites were similar to the ice cream scoop I had on my first visit, but with the addition of a warm waffle to supplement the ice cream. However, the step-by-step process remains the same. I was initially told it would take 6 minutes to prepare the Cookie Butter Waffle Bites, but it actually took 15! It seemed like one was training the other or they were trying to gather the ingredients and/or the steps needed to create the waffle bites. After about 10 minutes, I was told by one of the employees they had to make a new batch of waffles because the first batch had burnt. The music was getting pretty loud, so it was hard to hear him after that, but I didn't want to hold up the kitchen prep process any longer. I just said "Alright, sure" so he could continue preparing my order. I do appreciate how he let me know of this so that I'd know the reason for the extended wait, but I wish they weren't so ill-prepared during my visit. So overall, still 3 stars overall. I appreciate the prior partnership with Fivestars, but these missed opportunities have led me to believe that Cravings is just not for me. I doubt I'll try anything else on their ice cream menu, and considering that there are only a few parking spots in their lot, it will take a lot to get me to try their hot chicken. And speaking of lack of parking, I also want to mention that on my second visit, I saw two open parking stalls right in front of Cravings, one on either side of a car. That car had its driver's side wide open so that I couldn't park there. I had to park on the passenger side of that car, which he left much less room for. Perhaps a microcosm of the clientele in this part of town? Everybody deserves a second chance, right? Unfortunately, not everybody can make the most of them, and this is just one example of such. Thanks for the sweet treats Cravings, but I'll get my next one somewhere else.

My husband and I came here pretty late, I would've liked to try their churros and other desserts that looks super delicious, but wasn't feeling it when we visited. We just opted to get a large horchata to share. I was not really a fan. Their horchata is super, super freaking sweet. I've definitely had better horchata elsewhere. The price and quantity is fair I think, but I'll have to try other things on their menu to see if just the horchata is not to my taste. Interior is very clean and spacious. This place is very well decorated, with art and merchandise around the store. However, it took quite a while before my order was taken even when no one was in front of me. Kind of just awkwardly stood there and took my phone out because no one came to take my order. Service was nice though when someone finally came over to take my order, and I got my drink really quick. There's a little bit of parking available, you may have an issue grabbing a spot on a typical day I think. There is a convenient drive-thru though. Will try to check this place out again whenever I'm nearby, I'm hoping other drinks will be better.
