I know it's a small mom and pop bakery to probably cover their overhead, but their prices are pretty up there! They should sell them in smaller batches or more affordable options for buyers. Sadly, we even witnessed a guy stealing here one time. He was putting bread under his shirt and left. We told the shop owner but that guy got away when the owner tried to stop him.

My partner and I stopped by Cafe 86 in Carson hoping we had found our next go-to halo-halo spot…read more Unfortunately, authenticity and customer service were both missing from the recipe. Parking was easy, and when we walked in, there was only one occupied table. Three employees were chatting in the back. We were greeted, but it felt more like, "What would you like?" than "Welcome in." No smile, no conversation, no thank you--just a transaction. After taking our order, the employee returned to chatting with coworkers. When our order was ready, our name was called, the halo-halo was placed on the counter, and that was the end of the interaction. As for the halo-halo itself, my partner rated it a 2/10. It was overwhelmingly sweet and overpriced for what we received. We were hoping for layers of flavor and nostalgia but got a sugar rush that could probably power a small city. As a business owner myself, I understand that customer service is one of the biggest drivers of customer retention. Great products can bring people in once, but great service brings them back. Unfortunately, this visit missed the mark on both. The good news? These issues are fixable. A little more warmth, engagement, and hospitality would go a long way. Until then, we'll continue our search for our next favorite halo-halo spot.

They used to have samples you can try but the last few times I've been here they haven't had any so maybe they did away with that. On my last visit, I was tasked by a friend to get a Dubai Bundt cake for my sister's birthday. Sadly, they only offered it in the bundlet size so I got a couple of 3 pack towers. And because I have fatass impulses, the banana pudding flavor caught my eye and I got one of those for myself. Both were pretty good but I actually liked the banana pudding more. The cake is always super moist and crumbly smooth. It's not too sweet or over powering. My moth is watering thinking about it. This location is a small but inviting. The customer service is decent too. Anyway, if you've been living under a rock and have never tried Nothing Bundt Cakes, get in your car and go now.

Unfortunately, my experience with the Carson location has been the complete opposite. I've now wasted my time driving over there TWICE. The first time, they were under construction. The second time, they were closed, despite very recently promoting their new, later hours on social media. That's what makes it so frustrating. We're in the social media era. If you can use social media to promote new hours, you can also use it to let customers know you're closing early or won't be open. It takes less than a minute to post an update. Instead, customers are left wasting their time and gas showing up to a closed business. At this point, it honestly feels like they'd rather avoid posting that they're closed than risk looking bad online, even if that means inconveniencing customers who are relying on the hours THEY promoted. And unfortunately, even when the Carson location is open, the customer service hasn't been great. The younger staff rarely greet or welcome customers, and the overall energy just isn't very friendly or inviting. I hate even writing this because I genuinely love Sweet Red Peach and have so much love for the Inglewood location, but the Carson location is making the brand look BAD BAD BAD. I really hope management gets this location together because the quality of the product deserves a much better customer experience.
