    (I don't normally post reviews but this is one of the few exceptions) We recently moved in Manteca from the bay and I was hoping to find a good baker in the area. I searched a lot of people on Yelp, read reviews and tbh i was still hesitant but I needed to get a birthday cake for my little boy so I did that leap of faith. THANK GOD I DID!!! I said it's a construction themed party and sent photos of my inspo. I got really busy, the day came and Amber sent me a picture of the cake. I was very surprised with the cake, it was so beautiful! Too beautiful!!! And it was sooo good too!!! It was on the sweeter side but i loved it! I probably finished almost half of it because I just couldn't resist! Our guests loved it too! :)) I also ordered the treat package and was so sooo good! My words cannot do justice here. I know people have different taste but for me Amber is godsend. I got what I paid for and MORE! You are such great talent.. THANK YOU SO MUCH, AMBER!

    I am so happy I found Ms. Mae's :) I ordered a custom cake for my nephews baptism and it came out absolutely beautiful- exactly how I envisioned it. I did a vanilla cake with strawberry filling and buttercream frosting. Everyone was raving about how delicious and fresh the cake tasted. I would highly recommend and plan to use Ms. Mae again! She also delivered to Modesto which was a huge plus!

    This was in 7/2021. My daughter wanted a BTS themed party. The cake was exceptional moist and tasty! The chocolate covered cookies...omg...I hid some for myself. She has package deals to choose from and she delivered!!! She is very easy to work with and super sweet and friendly!

    Thank you Ms. Mae's Sweet Way! Such an amazing experience ordering my daughter's birthday cupcakes! The cupcakes turned out SO BEAUTIFUL! My daughter just requested pink and Minnie Mouse themed, and let me tell you.... Ms. Amber really exceeded what I could even imagine. I ordered cookies and cream/funfetti cupcakes, and they were so yummy! Every email was thorough and detailed (how to store them, drop off time, etc). Communication is key, and I was never left confused or unclear with anything. Every step of the process was so smooth and prompt. I really appreciate how Ms. Amber handles her business. I would definitely order again whenever I am in the area. Thank you, Ms. Mae's Sweet Way! You were truly an amazing piece to the birthday weekend!

    Red velvet cupcakes - so delicious and not too sweet!

    I was looking for a local bakery to deliver a surprise sweet treat to encourage a family that lives in Manteca. Researched a few spots in the area and it seemed pretty limited. I checked out Ms. Mae's website and saw they had gift baskets described. So I messaged Ms. Mae's via yelp for details on what they could do. Received message reply super quick and then corresponded via email. Communication was super responsive and prompt and really made me feel confident in submitting an order. The owner went above and beyond expectation!!! The gift basket treats were so beautiful! I really just wanted something special to bring smiles to the faces of some really great people and so wasn't very specific with design requests. I trusted the owner to do what she does best and man, did she deliver! The pics speak for themselves, but the thoughtful, kind and sweet nature of the owner was very evident as well I would go out of my way to look for reasons to return to support this business and would recommend to anyone without reservation!!

    Loved the fact that Amber was able to accommodate our request at such a short notice, a week before my family came into town for a weekend vacation at Great Wolf Lodge. The cupcakes came out looking lovely as it was delicious. She was able to make cupcakes for my stepdaughter's 5th birthday which was Baby Yoda theme and my niece's 13th birthday which was rose gold theme. The whole family including the birthday girls loved how the cupcakes came out and loved the taste.

    I decided to throw a farm theme drive by for my daughter. I sent Amber a text of what was needed and she executed and delivered beyond my expectations. Her work ethic and professionalism is unmatched. If your looking for some delicious and beautiful desserts for your event honestly look no further!

    Ms Mae did a wonderful job on providing a beautiful and delicious cake. Her work is outstanding and her customer service can't be beat. We wanted a unique Frozen birthday cake for our daughter and she surely delivered! We appreciate her artistic skill, and we will be using her services again in the near future.

    Money pulling cake. Money already pulled
    Louie Andrew S.

    Ordered a special cake at this store and they are so well organized and so communicative. i order a money pulling cake. First time they will make a money pulling cake but they did it with such a awesome finish product. the pulling of the money in the cake is so smooth and works perfectly! I will definitely order again to this store and also recommend this to other people! Thank you again for the wonderful work!

    I ordered a custom heart shaped cake and was very clear about what I wanted: whipped cream frosting…read moreon the outside and chocolate ganache filling with caramel and pecans on the inside. I even told them I don't like buttercream because it's too sweet and that I didn't want it anywhere on this cake. When I placed the order, they asked if they could add a little buttercream to the outside for texture. I said okay, but only a tiny bit mixed with the whipped cream. What showed up was all buttercream on the outside with zero whipped cream. When I asked about it, they told me it was whipped cream. I know what I'm tasting, and so did my guests. It was definitely buttercream. The inside was even worse. There was some ganache but barely any. The further we cut into the cake, the more buttercream we found. I did not want buttercream inside the cake at all. I barely agreed to a little on the outside and they didn't even respect that. The photos show it clearly. The further we cut, the messier and more uneven it got with just buttercream and buttercream. One slice had a thin layer of ganache with barely any pecans or caramel. Everything else was buttercream. I picked this bakery because I had a good experience with them the first time. The design looked nice, but the cake itself was really disappointing. Way too sweet from all that buttercream I specifically said I didn't want. I gave them detailed feedback with photos. Instead of owning up to it, the decorator got defensive. He said he used buttercream as glue to hold the cake together. But that doesn't make sense. If ganache worked fine as glue on my first order with them (which had no buttercream inside at all), why couldn't he do the same thing this time? He just chose to use a lot of buttercream instead of actually following what I asked for. I even sent more photos pointing out exactly where the problem was. But they still insisted it was whipped cream. My guests noticed it too. So are they lying? Management offered me a 10% discount on my next order. That doesn't help. I paid for a cake that didn't meet what I asked for and it ruined my event. I asked for a 50% refund which seemed fair. They read the message but never answered. Just complete silence. If a bakery is going to charge premium prices for custom cakes, you need to actually follow what the customer asks for. I was crystal clear about what I wanted. That's literally the whole point of a custom order. They like to ignore customers when there's an issue. I was ignored at first, then only responded after I pointed out how unprofessional they were handling things. That's when they offered the 10% discount. But the moment I asked for a fair 50% refund, they ghosted me completely. No response, nothing. That says everything you need to know about how they treat customers who have legitimate concerns.

    My wedding was on October 10, 2015, I contacted Angela and we arranged for an order of 15 dozen…read morecupcakes to be delivered to the reception site before 4:00 pm the day of the wedding. She only asked for a $50 deposit but I sent her $100 in good faith. A week before the wedding I finalized my order with her and mailed the remaining amount along with a thank you card and detailed instructions. I also added a tip into the amount because I knew I wouldn't see her the day of the wedding. On my wedding day as I am taking pictures after the ceremony, I receive a phone call from my cousin who is at the reception site telling me the cupcakes weren't delivered. It was 5:00 and guests had already arrived. All 160 people who were there went over to a cake/cupcake stand that had no cupcakes. My dad built me a beautiful stand that had three layers. My good friend made me a beautiful small cake for the top and the bottom two tiers were empty. Mind you, the cake/cupcake stand was on a huge table filled with candy and a popcorn bar. It was wonderful, except for the fact that there were NO cupcakes. Angela didn't have the decency to call and let me know what was going on, we had to call her. She then said her oven wasn't working right and she would try to be there in a half hour. Almost an hour passes by and she finally arrives with the cupcakes. I wish more than anything that after her being late it was worth it, but it wasn't. The cupcakes were burnt on the outside and uncooked on the inside. Over half of them didn't even raise over the edge of the cupcake cup. AND to top it all off, TWO DOZEN were missing. My cousin who greeted her at the wedding told her to not cash my check until she talked to me. Angela didn't even help them put the cupcakes on the stand. Going through the boxes to find which ones were presentable, my cousin and a few guests had to. I was on my honeymoon for a week and text her when I got back. She blamed her oven on everything. She then told me I wouldn't have even known there were TWO DOZEN MISSING had she not told me. She's right... I wouldn't have known. Probably because I shouldn't have to count a 15 dozen cupcake order on the day of my wedding and because they were burnt and uncooked, I had around 100 left over. She cashed my check even though she shouldn't have. We negotiated a refund price that she said she would put in the mail the next day. Two weeks later no check. I text her and asked if she planned on sending my refund, at least for the two dozen that were missing. She then said the night she put a cashiers check in the outgoing mail box it was broken in to and stolen. She then said she would show me proof of the fraud investigation.... which is yet to be seen. And even if that did happen, I never received a phone call or text saying my refund would be coming at a later date. It is now November 13th. Over a month after my wedding. I have no refund. I understand that sometimes ovens may not work right and cupcakes get burnt... but the way Angela conducts business is absolutely horrible. She is completely unprofessional. Not only was I disappointed in her business ethic but so are the 160 people who attended my wedding. For anyone who would like to see the conversation we had through text messaging, I would be happy to email them to you.
