Definitely not what I was expecting. The store girls were not friendly at all. The customized cake looked nothing like the picture I showed them. read more

I'm so beyond dissatisfied with the $150 graduation cake that I ordered for my daughter! First, the simple design I requested was totally wrong. I even provided photos and dropped off the ribbon that they just decided not to use. They corrected the design errors but I was still disappointed with the sloppy ribbon placement. Also, the cake was so thick - we could barely serve it properly. After serving my guests, I sit down to have a piece of cake and it was terrible! The cream cheese frosting in the center of the red velvet cake tasted like a stick of butter with a dash of sugar mixed in. It was even yellow!! The cake itself was dry and not moist at all. Most of my guests took a couple bites then threw away the cake. I wish I had a photo of all the full plates in my garbage. Don't waste your money here, the cake quality is so poor and it reflects the people who work there - horrible customer service and they act annoyed when you call with questions. read more

Michelle's - Left is what the cake looked like at pickup. Didn't even bother to use the ribbon I dropped off - they fixed it but sloppily. - Bakeries Near Me - Redlands, California

If purchasing here please check your cake for insects or worms. I purchased a raspberry Victorian cake and took it home for a bday event. After having the candles blown out by the birthday girl we saw 4 tiny worms/ insects (perhaps from unwashed raspberries). This was an indoors event. Everyone around was disgusted and unfortunately unable to eat the cake. I brought the cake back with receipt and quietly spoke to an associate simply asking for a refund. The associate Bonnie went to the back and spoke to Michelle the manager and said no refund allowed. They made it seem like I wanted to put the insects on the cake myself. With receipt and the uneaten cake I thought a simple refund would be allowed but it wasn't. Bonnie clearly stated, "Michelle doesn't want to give a cake or refund, but I can give you a cake now". I didn't need a cake since the event was over. I kindly asked to speak to Michelle myself, but the associated stated she was in a meeting and didn't want to come out to assist with a customer. Sad this reputable spot in Redlands could not offer proper customer service. read more

I absolutely love the cake here. My favorite is the Raspberry Victorian with whipped cream frosting. Sadly, they no longer offer cake by the slice, so I will probably not be returning. They've offered me their same flavored cupcakes, but the ratios and experience are just not the same. They do still offer a whole cake, but I have zero need for an entire cake - a slice was a little treat I'd give myself on occasion. I figured I'd pop on and leave this review, so if you're like me and drive out of your way to grab a slice, you don't waste your time. read more

Michelle's has the best cake in town but their service sucks. I always when to wait when I'm picking up the cakes when I come later the time for pick up. Extremely annoying. I also noticed they have a B grade which is a disappointing for a bakery. read more

We recently ordered a cake from Michelle's for our wedding this past weekend. All we can say is that we absolutely loved the cake, our guests loved the cake (raspberry Victorian) asking us where it we bought it from, and it was easy to work with Bonnie and everyone! We will definitely be returning annually to celebrate our anniversary with the cake, and to buy cakes from them regularly. The price for the wedding cake was also significantly cheaper than other bakeries. Thank you to Bonnie and everyone at Michelle's for your help! read more

I ordered a very specific cake for a bridal shower and they made it perfectly. And everyone loved the taste of the cake, it was very delicious. I also ordered their macarons, which was unfortunately a regret. They were too sweet and it came in different sizes which didn't look right. Other than that I surely recommend Michelle's Cakes if you're having an event. I will definitely come back and use their service again :) read more

In regards to JACKIE C. You greedy ass loser. You wanted free cookies cause your cake was late?! Lmao how do you survive in life thinking you are entitled to free shit cause there was a mistake. There are multiple things to be said about your lame review. 1. As you mentioned you have ordered multiple times and since you are petty I think you would have admitted to prior negative experiences but it's clearly the first. 2. How does your sister know the cake that the other employee was carrying was for you? Do you think you are the only customer who ordered a cake? Classic narcissist. 3. You forgot to mention how you told the cake decorator to "HURRY UP AND GO MAKE MY F@cKING CAKE". You rude a$$ bi+ch. 4. You wanted free cookies and a free cake. But the employees are the greedy ones? Lol 5. You were waiting outside trying to call the cake decorator to come out. FOR WHAT?! To harass her and take pictures of her? 6. What about mentioning the HUGE scene you were making in the store, to the point where you were told to leave and get out or the cops would be called on you? Where you were refusing and embarrassing yourself. Because you are a ignorant, loud mouthed, entitled LOSER. 7. That poor young girl that you took a picture of is underage! What kind of pathetic trash human puts a devil face on a young girl!!!!! 8. YOU GOT YOUR MONEY BACK!!!! Before you wrote this review Next time go buy a sheet cake at Ralph's. read more

Always love a new bakery and happened to be in Redlands. Tried some cakes and they were just meh. The raspberry Victorian was the best, but the rest of cakes tasted like grocery store bakery cakes. The custardy filling had no flavor, and while the cakes were moist, they lacked that homemade taste. Also saw a couple testing wedding cakes at a small ledge and they looked uncomfortable. Not a very nice environment for such a big decision. read more

i won a cake for the most chats on an womens rock p.m. live stream bible study from my church Rock world outreach in San Bernardino my church delivered the cake and recorded my reaction and showed it on live at the end of the study. That was Thursday night it was the strawberry whip cream one and it was so beautiful i did not want to cut it I just so happened to be having a birthday party for my 3yr. old granddaughter i kept the cake refrigerated until Sunday the writing on the cake said we love you so perfect for her day it was so perfect one of the best cakes i've had and i have had plenty so hats off to you guys you Rock i'm a party planner and would highly recommend your bakery . read more

Would give one star! We were pressured to use this bakery for Edwards mansion. I called four times prior to wedding (and walked in once) to make sure they had everything right because I kept getting calls asking about what I had already told them.. Needless to say I had a reason to be worried. They were supposed to put the cake topper on but lady delivered it and left before we got to talk. Upon a closer look, the top tier wasn't centered.. The stencil wasn't placed evenly.. The color faded through out.. There was a gap between the ribbon and stencil different on every layer.. AND ANTS. The stencil I paid for was supposed to be returned but that never happened and now they can't find it? When we called to speak with Michelle she said she placed the cake on display and got compliments.. What a big liar! She also refused to compensate us and hung up on my husband! We could of went to SAMs club, bought an eighty dollar cake, and it would of been 100% better Michelle is rude. The cake is ugly. Not sure why anyone goes there read more

This review is to regards to Jackie C's review, I was in the lobby the day she was there picking up her cake I was with my daughter. The employee in question was doing everything possible to make Jackie's cake right.. over and beyond! Jackie C was so rude and using language my daughter has never heard. Then I read her review and couldn't understand how someone could so blatantly lie about the visit..I have ordered here before without incident and have always been pleased, and my daughter was offered a cookie for her birthday...All in all Michelle's cakes are the best!! read more

Very disappointed in the cake I ordered for my husbands medical school graduation tomorrow. I ordered a "Dr" cake (white coat). I provided them with a detailed description and a picture. The cake I picked up today was extremely sloppy and unprofessional. The lettering looked like chicken scratch, the tie under the white coat wasn't finished, things were crooked and pieces of blue fondant were scattered on the white parts. They redid the lettering(but spelled my husbands name wrong) and completed the tie(in different shades than the original). I was so hoping this cake would be special for such a huge occasion, but sadly it was a disappointment instead. I recommend checking out other bakeries before this one! Hopefully it tastes good!!! read more

Michelle's - Very sloppy and unprofessional! Especially compared to the original picture I gave them. - Bakeries Near Me - Redlands, California

My fiancé and I are using Michelle's for our wedding cake. We recently came in for a cake tasting and the flavors were incredible. They gave us 5 full slices of the flavors we wanted to try. We couldn't decide on just one flavor so we chose three different flavors-- one for each layer of our cake hahaha. The staff was super friendly and accommodating. Thanks Michelle's! read more

Michelle's was the vendor for my wedding on June 28, 2014, at Serendipity Garden Weddings. For the most part, I was pleased. They followed my directions on how the cake was to look and it tasted great! The customer service could definitely use a little attention. First, it's a little difficult to do a tasting there only because you pretty much have to eat on your lap while doing the tasting because there is no table. It could be a little nicer seeing as you are picking out the wedding cake! During our tasting, which was about three months before our wedding, we picked out the flavors and then a week afterwards decided to change one of the layers. I called and they changed it, no problem. Three days before the wedding, I called to confirm the flavors. When someone answered the phone, she abruptly asked for my number saying she was busy and would call back. Two hours later, no call back. I called again and finally spoke with someone and she confirmed the correct flavors. However, the cake had the original flavor we asked for on one of the tiers as opposed to what I asked for and confirmed. I emailed them shortly after the wedding and they responded with a free layer of the one we chose. Fortunately, the flavor mix up wasn't a huge deal and the cake in its entirety tasted amazing. I will definitely be back for other parties. read more

October 2nd i went to pick up a cake I purchased a week an a half in advance. Its my 5th time purchasing from here every year i get the same thing. This year played alot different my cake was suppose to be done my noon needless to say I went at 3pm and my cake wasn't even done... To cover their screw up because the cake was never made 30 min later to figure out what scam to say they never came out to assist me since they never made my cake... during this time my sister in law waiting in a car seen a worker go on the back and pull a cake out a pretend for it to be my cake open it up and add filling to make it seen as if they made it ... well since I was waiting for over 30 min mind you it should of been ready by noon thry insisted I waited even more for my lost time i asked if I can have 3 cookies because I have 3 people in my car waiting they said NO i can only have 1. TALK ABOUT GREEDY ASS BITCHES not one was it one girl but it was also the manager that was there friday October 2nd at 330 pm .. these females have no respect or proper maners. And what a way to cover their mistakes no sense of human decency rude obnoxious never will I ever go back because of these 2 employees. The worse part they refuse to service me and want to give me store credit which makes NO sense why would I purchase from here if you will not service me so needless to say this company STOLE 45$ because I was never reimbursed now i have to call my bank and report for fraud charges .. Do no come here ever the employees are not worth it. .. read more

terrible service, doesn't deliver, customer service sucks. Ordered a cake for a wedding and they completely forgot the decorations.

Long over due! I'm so happy that Serendipity Gardens is partnered with Michelle's Bakery!!! My wedding cake was everything I ever dreamt of! The decorating and taste was on point! You have to get the Grand Victorian! It's absolutely too die for! We also had chocolate chocolate that was so amazing as well! The only con of Michelle's was the tasting. Please know the bakery is very very small and can only accommodate a few people at a time. I expected to be sitting at a table discussing the flavors with a consultant, but that is not what we got. Instead we got thrown some cake on a paper plate and rushed to decide. I had to calmly communicate that I was getting anxiety and irritated to the young girl. She understood and gave us some time. When I was ready to discuss our order, the consultant could not answer any of my questions that I had. I asked for Michelle to come out and talk to me. This is when the whole appointment changed thankfully, because I was about to turn bridezilla, lol. Michelle was easy to talk too and was able to answer all my questions and concerns! She is so awesome! Thank you for easing my anxiety, Michelle! This is a hidden gem in Redlands, thank you to Serendipity for exposing it to my husband and I! I can't wait to order our replica for our 1 year anniversary! read more

This cake was really good! They were very helpful with the vegan choices. Not 5 stars because she informed me they will no longer have vegan options. Very unfortunate so we will not be back. Hopefully they change their minds and update their kitchen for the modern vegan lifestyle of many potential clients in the area. read more

This is absolutely the best cake I've ever had!!!! My aunt orders their cake every now and then... So when it came to my wedding.. I had to have it!!! We called to schedule a tasting, it was $5-7 for 7 tasting. Not a big deal. Especially since I knew which one I wanted for sure. We tasted and the gal helping us went over each cake and went over pictures and pricing. In the end she didn't charge us for the tasting. She was super nice and informative. We ended up with the strawberry Victorian and chocolate. 3 layers... Top layer: strawberry (everyone said to freeze it and eat it on your one year anniversary, I was like no thanks, we ate it for breakfast the next day. I told my husband I'll get us a fresh cake for our anniversary, lol).. Middle: chocolate bottom layer: strawberry Sheet cake : half and half (choc & straw) It was a hit!!! Everyone loved it! I was a bit skeptical because of the reviews on customer service and a brides worst nightmare of not getting her wedding cake.. But I had to have them. I made a $50 deposit & sent in my picture design. They called me 2 weeks later to follow up on my deposit. I paid the cake in full, I think they only wanted 50% and then the remaining in 4 weeks. I figured if I paid it all, I'd get it. It delivered on time & they set it up. My florist decorated it all. It was gorgeous! We loved it! read more

Michelle's - Wedding cake! - Bakeries Near Me - Redlands, California

Michelle's became our family's favorite while in search for wedding cake to serve at my sister's reception this summer. We sampled multiple bakeries all across SOCAL and not a single cake came even close to comparing to the European style Victorian cakes that Michelle's is known for. Upon the first taste we looked at each other and agreed this is what wedding cake SHOULD taste like... Since our first tasting we have been hooked. We have ordered a two layered 6 & 10 inch red velvet Victorian strawberry for my sister's bridal shower that was a huge hit. The inside was simply gorgeous! It had bright red layers of moist cake, strawberry purée, thick rich dense vanilla cream that is seriously like no other and diced fresh strawberries suspended within. We were absolutely thrilled with the taste & quality of this cake. A couple of weeks after, we ordered an 9 inch German chocolate cake for my son's high school graduation. It was extremely rich and sweet from the double filling layers of coconut pecan frosting And chocolate fudge layered between thinner layers of chocolate cake, then it's covered in chocolate ganache. It reminded us of a really gooey candy bar, kind of over the top for our taste. On finalizing the upcoming wedding cake details we couldn't leave Michelle's empty handed so we took a six-inch Victorian raspberry home for the family. It just has the WOW factor! read more

Love their cakes. I have been ordering cakes from this bakery for years now, and I've never been disappointed with any custom cake order I've placed.

I really enjoyed the cake I got there, it was the chocolate raspberry cake and the chocolate tasted like chocolate from a chocolate bar. Very high quality! I spoke to the owner's mom while I was there, she was super nice and was very helpful. I purchased some of the petite cakes but I definitely liked the regular cakes much more! I will have to try the strawberry cake next time. The cake part was super moist and I was told that these cakes are baked with fresh ingredients daily! I will be going back! I think this is the only bakery that I've gone to in the Loma Linda area that has not disappointed! Thanks for being around Michelle's!!

They were life savers and went above and beyond for us. read more

It was my son's first birthday and we were celebrating in San Bernardino. I called everywhere In the area and she was the only one willing to make the cakes. I believe I spoke to Bonnie on the phone, I emailed her pictures of the cake design I wanted, nothing over the top at all to me. His name, a number 1, Superman logo with a yellow fondant "ribbon" around the side of the cake. She said they could do it very easily, "no problem". She did however tell me that I needed to go to a separate cake supply store and purchase the superman logo because they did not have it. Thankfully, my sister-in-law went to the bakery supply store and picked up the logos and brought them to her to add to the cakes. When my family member picked up the cake on the day of the party it had no name on it and a cheap yellow fabric ribbon. When I took the cakes out of the boxes the dark blue icing was bleeding into the yellow fabric ribbon. We had to carefully peel as much off as we could to avoid the tie-dye look and were forced to go with the better of two; an ugly green color. So basically I paid over $200 for a large blue cake and a small blue smash cake; something I could've easily done myself. I called to voice my concerns and wanted to be compensated for this awful experience and was told I would get a call back, never did. I called again and she told me that I knew they were going to put a yellow cloth ribbon on the cake which was not true. She told me a yellow ribbon would be used but she did not tell me it would be made of fabric, something that you would put in a flower bouquet (not on a dark blue icing cake). Had I known this I could've told her the icing would bleed into the ribbon. You'd think a professional bakery would also know this but apparently they're brainless. They basically could care less about customer service. The only reason why I gave them one star is because the cake did taste delicious but other than that it looked like complete $&@? So if you want a $200 glorified Duncan Hines cake with some cocky customer service she's your bakery! Enjoy the awful pictures and another bad review to add to your collection. No read more

My family has been buying cakes from Michelle's for about 10 or so year's now,I would say 2 to 3 cakes a year sometimes more for special occasions. Well if you read the last year or so of her reviews something has changed. I called a phone order recently and my experience was the different this time. The customer service is horrible the girls aren't friendly,the cakes don't taste the same,and the manger or owners really don't care anymore!!! You have to PAY IN FULL for any size cake,and if you add anything to there regular cake like rosettes to a standard cake they have on hand, which is easy ask Costco you have to come in a order it in person and it would be considered a custom cake order!! There's plenty of reviews that people didn't even get their wedding cakes and she has a BBB rating of a F,and the health department rating of a B!!! Michelle's Bakery won't last much longer if things don't change FAST!!! Please do your research on this company before you purchase!!! This was the last cake I will ever order from Michelle's and now Cari's bakery in Colton will get all mine and my family business. read more

I have no doubt that this bakery is superb at what they do. But here is my issue with them. I ordered a cake 6 weeks in advance for a Birthday party I am planning. With the understanding a relative was going to be the responsible party to pick up the cake. However, the relative will be having major surgery and will not be in attendance. Meaning, because they don't deliver I won't have time to pick it up. So I no longer needed their service. When I called them today to explain this I was told they are going to keep my $300 for store credit. HUH?!!! I am calling you a MONTH before the event! You have no monetary lost, material lost, or time lost. How can you justify keeping my money? People don't buy $300 cakes very often. I most likely won't require their services again. How, is this even possible, justified and overall right? Very disappointed and feeling gypped. read more

I would give 5 stars just for their Victorian Chocolate cake. It is moist, chocolatey, and goes extremely well with raspberries. It's a dream come true. Love that cake I will look for any excuse to get a cake. Anyone's birthday, Mother's Day, someone's offer being accepted, ANYTHING! The only reason why I can't give 5 stars is because they have a Victorian Raspberry and a "CHOCOLATE" Victorian Raspberry. When you order, they don't ask you regular or chocolate. My mom and my husband both got the WRONG cake and it is extremely disappointing. They should ask which flavor! They regular one and the chocolate one are night and day in terms of flavor. They NEED to ask!!!!!!! I'm sitting here with a regular cake, NOT CHOCOLATE, which I can't return or exchange. Crying. T_T read more

The cake is excellent, and the workers there on the whole are nice and professional. The designs are gorgeous and the great things about their cakes is that it tastes very fresh. Slightly disappointed that they expected me to remember details regarding my wedding cake that we discussed when I put down my deposit a couple months ago AND no one informed me or my fiancé to write down any details regarding the cake. A little curious why they couldn't take a min to type everything down. When I returned a couple monthes after the deposit and cake tasting, I finally got a final receipt listing complete details about my cake (after I had to tell them). And we're are getting phone calls regarding wedding cake details we already discussed and has written down. Kinda worried they aren't too organized and hoping my cake arrives the way I want it to at my wedding on time :/ Will be happy to give this place a higher rating if everything goes the way I want it too with minimal head aches. UPDATE: Our cake turned out very delicious and beautiful. Did not hear any complaints from my family in regards to they're delivery service. Still can't give 5 stars, because I'm still not convinced they're very organized. read more
