    I used Pin Up Cakes for my wedding and loved how my cake turned out! Everything was done online and was super easy. I sent them inspiration pictures of what I wanted and for how many people. I wanted a smaller cake for just me, my husband and our wedding party as we were doing sheet cake for the guests. After sending the pictures, they gave me different options and broke it down by how much each would cost. I loved that they did that! Since I wanted a 2 tier cake, but it was only for 12 people, they gave me the option to make the top tier out of styrofoam to cut costs! They also gave me options on if I wanted them to make flowers out of fondant, or I could bring them flowers and they would put it on, or I could have my florist do it at the venue. This also helped cut cost. I ended up with a strawberry cake with chocolate frosting and it was so delicious! I'm not a big fondant person so I was worried I wasn't going to like that part, but it was honestly so thin and not super sweet which I was very happy about.

    I'm new to the area and am still finding my way around the city. My daughter's 5th birthday was coming up and we wanted to get her a unicorn cake because like most kids, that's her thing right now. My friend has been living here for quite sometime and recommended Pin Up Cakes. She said she hadn't tried it herself but had heard good things. Since my options were limited due to covid, and I only needed a small cake, just for my daughter to feel special, I decided to try them out. I ended up ordering a 6" cake that was enough for 10-12 people. I felt it was a little pricey, but this was my first time ordering a specialty cake and had nothing to compare it to. I usually go to Costco for our cakes, so maybe the price was fair, and that's why I'm not knocking any stars for price. The transaction was smooth and sweet, as far as leaving deposit and stuff. The girls were very friend over the phone, email and in person. I sent them a picture of the cake I wanted and they totally delivered. I personally the thought the cake tasted amazing. I'm not a fan of fondant and even that tasted pretty good to me, my brother and sister liked everything, except the fondant, they said it was a bit thick, but I totally disagreed. The "bread" part, sorry I don't know the proper cake terminology, tasted fresh, not stale. Everyone seemed to enjoy it. My baby's first birthday is coming up next month and I will most definitely be placing an order for her cake with them. I guess it's time to kiss those Costco cakes goodbye, I ain't about that life no' mo.'

    Jurassic Park cake

    We've now used Pin Up Cakes twice for our son's birthday. This time around, we asked for a Jurassic Park cake. We provided the gate and dino toys, and they did the two tiers with leaf and rock accents and printed name sign. Well made, on time, and decently priced. And great tasting. Thank you!

    a birthday cake for a 3 year old
    Gabby M.

    This was my first time ordering a cake from here. I have been using the same bakery for years but unfortunately they had shut down. I was so nervous to try a new bakery, however I just found my new go to bakery! First off, the cake was absolutely perfect! I sent two pictures and asked them to combine the two photos into one cake. It looks EXACTLY like the pictures I sent. When my three year old saw it, his eyes lit up and he yelled out "WOWWWWWW!" Now, not only did it look amazing, IT TASTED ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS! We ordered a cookies and cream cake with fudge filling. The cake was so soft and moist and the fudge filling was perfect. The cake was an absolute hit with all our guests! We look forward to coming here again for our future events!

    Lemon Bars, Fudgey Brownies

    This bakery is definitely a hidden gem. They are extremely talented, professional, and work hard to bring your vision to life. If you go in to the store you will see several sample designs on display. They have unique and cute cake, cookie, and cupcake designs for every occasion. If you're looking for a quick bite they have a few ready made treats that they sell in store. Personally, the Lemon Bars are my favorite. Their lemon bars made my Kim Possible dreams comes true. They also have the chewiest and richest brownies I've ever tasted. Keep in mind they don't have a large selection, but that is due to that fact that they are a "For Order" bakery. Both of the women who work here are extremely kind, helpful, and honest. If you have any questions give them a call and they'll be quick to answer and assist you. Make sure to try something while you're there. You won't be disappointed.

    All-in-all ~ THE BEST CAKE WE'VE EVER TASTED! Our Father's Birthday cake was simply awesome! The design and decadence of our cake was phenomenal. The total execution of the design and incredible detail is impeccable. My family would personally like to applaud you and wish you nothing but continued success! I pray that you really consider my words and suggestions to you yesterday...I know those heart changes will indeed elevate you - to a WHOLE NOTHER LEVEL!

    I have been buying cakes, cupcakes and cake pops from here for 6 years and I have to say they are amazing. I have received compliments from my family and friends for the looks, taste and how amazing the cakes are. I am a loyal customer for life. You girls are so great. I would highly recommend them to any one. they are the whole package. Thank you for making everything beyond expectations.

    Pinup cakes surpassed my expectations. Not only was the cake beautiful, but it tasted really good. We picked the red velvet with cream cheese and the marble with raspberry & whip. Both were delicious. The cake was the exact duplicate of a picture i provided. However, I did not have them add the large characters since I have smal princess figurines I wanted to add. I was truly happy with the outcome, as were my guests. They did the cookies too exactly what we hoped to have. I will continue to order from them. They were very friendly in addition to their amazing work. They were very patient with me as well, which I appreciate since I wasn't sure if we would be able to squeeze extra items into the budget. I recommend them to anyone looking for a really amazing looking cake. It was a bit higher priced than I am used to, but their work was worth it.

    Coconut butter cream cake
    Cherryl M.

    I catered a wedding few days ago & as a Chef I am super picky about desserts. Found out the most incredible coconut butter wedding cake I've ever tasted in my life came from this place. I can't say enough about how excellent and moist yet super rich & tasty this cake was. I think we found our new special occasion cake place

    Jess L.

    Pin Up Cakes exceeded my expectations on our cake request. The details on the cake were so accurate. The taste even better. When we picked up the cake they were very good about Covid regulation's. We simply knocked on the door to let them know we were there for pick up and they asked us to bring our car to the front and she brought the cake to us, boxed up and ready to go. We'll definitely be going back for more cake!!!

    I really really dislike these cakes and the horrible customer service when you tell them that there.cakes taste like butter instead of buttercream and the fondant is thicker then the cake layers!!! So with both being so thick and no cake, makes these cakes so horrible, no one at your party even eats it!!! I will NEVER purchase one of there high priced, grossly tasting cakes ever again!! So if you have read this and many other reviews that say basically the same thing about these horrible cakes, then that's all you need to never even attempt to buy a cake from here!!! Believe me, you will truly be disappointed and wish you had paid attention to the reviews!! Oh and this is what a cake is supposed to look like in the picture I'm posting with this review that I bought from another bakery!! And it was delicious!!! Everyone ate it and enjoyed it!! And asked where I got it from!!!

    Talia's bday cake!
    Annie A.

    MOST WELL-DESERVED REVIEW! Aileen is an incredible human being. Words can not convey how much I admire her and her work. Our experience has always been positive with Pinup Cakes. The quality of the work is phenomenal. My favorite combo for cake and filling is her Bavarian cream with vanilla or red velvet cake. Even though, I no longer reside near Whittier, I will drive 45 min each way to pick up my children's birthday cakes from PUC. Sadly, due to the corona virus, we have not been able to place an order for nearly three years. I was so elated to know that Alieen and her staff had weathered the storm, and were still in business creating amazing memories for our families. I'm including photo of a cake that they did for my daughter pre-covid, and a cake that she did for my son inMay, 2022. Please keep in mind that I called her merely a week before the actual party and she produced a masterpiece. No other cake shop would have done the same. Alieen, I look forward to working with you again in October. With my warmest regards!!!! Annie

    Amazing bakery in the Fullerton area! Everything I had here was good and delicious…read more There were so many unique and pretty pastries to choose from from cakes to croissants. I got so many pastries. There were no misses. My favorite of the bunch was the blueberry cake. The cake wasn't too sweet, was moist, fluffy, and tasty. I enjoyed the matcha cheesecake, garlic sea salt bread, and raspberry cruffin as well. I also grabbed an egg bacon bread and regular sea salt bread to-go for future breakfasts. Warmed up, these were great in the morning! To drink I had the Banana Pudding Matcha Latte which was not too sweet and yummy! Good matcha flavor and the banana pudding was creamy. Mixed together, it was good. I also enjoyed the crunchy bits in there as well as the real banana slices. I got it at the small size, but the portion was generous. It went well with the pastries. There's some inside seating and tables as well as a bathroom available. There is lots of free parking around the bakery. I went in the afternoon on a Sunday and it was still packed! I love how the bakers were constantly baking even in the afternoon, so they brought out fresh batches of their pastries. Overall, a great bakery and I would recommend it to anyone visiting the Fullerton area.

    Food Rating: 5/10 Price: 8/10…read more Ambiance/Service: 8/10 Overall Rating: 7/10 The shop is pretty small and clean, with a good amount of seating both inside and outside. Nothing notable to say about the service. Brown Bear - $8.75 Rating: (5/10) At first look, the dessert is almost too cute to eat. The taste, once you actually start eating it, was really light, almost tasteless, with a lack of depth to the chocolate flavor. There was also very minimal rasqpberry and strawberry filling. Garlic Bird - $8.75 Rating: (1/10) This dessert was honestly pretty awful. The pairing of flavors is a bit odd and bold. The crisp green grape flavor is very difficult to pair well with the earthy notes of jasmine and taro. The combination of grape and a pasty taro filling doesn't work well, in my opinion. It feels like a bad take on the trending jasmine grape drinks with chewy taro balls. Strawberry Mousse - $7.50 Rating: (4/10) It was okay. There was too much going on inside this small dessert, and the flavor of the jammy interior was a bit weird. The description listed strawberry and pistachio jam, raspberry puree, chocolate crystal jelly, and Baileys Irish Cream. Egg Tart - $0.99 Rating: (10/10) If I ever come back, I'll buy a dozen of these egg tarts for $12. Pretty good, and the price is unbeatable.

I had never tried Botox before in my life, but I decided to get it for the first time yesterday as well. I don't think the results have shown yet, so I'm planning to post a review once they do. Since we were already in Orange County, we stopped by a bakery at the Source Mall. I bought several pastries there. The fresh cream bread was very delicious. I didn't try the custard cream bread because my younger brothers ate it, so I can't really comment on the taste. I also haven't tried the pecan pie yet. Lately, Dubai chocolate cookies have been extremely popular and trendy, so I asked whether this bakery had them. They said yes, so I bought one for $6.75. However, when I tried it this morning, it was absolutely not a Dubai chocolate cookie. It was basically just a chocolate pie. There was no pistachio flavor at all, and no pistachios inside--just a very ordinary chocolate pie. That part was extremely disappointing. Also, yesterday I asked the bakery if they could provide paper plates so we could cut and share the pastries, but she said they didn't have any. Other bakeries usually provide paper plates, so it was disappointing as well.

On July 5, I arrived at the store around 6:50 a.m. to pick up my order, but the staff could not find it. After checking, they told me that the person who took my order on June 28 had written it down incorrectly as a 6:30 p.m. pickup, not 6:30 a.m. Even though they admitted that the order was written incorrectly on their side, they told me I would have to wait about 30-40 minutes for them to prepare the original items. I had to pick up my order and leave right away, so I ended up taking different replacement items instead and got money back the price difference in cash. What was more disappointing was how the situation was handled afterward. I did not receive any apology from the bakery that morning, so later that day I called the store hoping to at least hear a simple "sorry" for the inconvenience. The employee on the phone only asked questions like who took the order and why the price difference was paid back in cash not card, and never offered any apology. Because of this, I went back to the store in person to speak with the manager or owner. The owner, pretending as manager, told me that the order slip showed a 6:30 p.m. pickup time, not 6:30 a.m., and insisted that there was no fault on their side. She didn't say sorry but just blamed the one who wrote wrong. I explained that all I wanted was a basic apology: they had written the order time incorrectly, I could not receive what I originally ordered, I had to take a smaller replacement order, and then I had to visit another bakery to buy more items to make up for the shortage. Even after explaining the inconvenience this caused, I still did not receive a sincere apology. The lack of responsibility and basic customer service in handling their own ordering mistake was very disappointing, and that is why I am sharing this experience here.

So this is more of a order a go spot, if they don't have enough chairs. It's clean and did smell like baked goods when you come in. The decoration is cute also. I didn't know what to order and so I ordered a Dacquiose with cream and strawberry jam since I've never had one before. The owner described it as a mix of a macaron and cream puff. It was an accurate description. Definitely great texture. Just a little too much cream for my taste due to the sweetness. It was like a butter like cream, and it was sweet. I also got their chocolate chip cookie which was thick. It tasted very similar to a scone and not really like a buttery, crunchy/chewy texture of chocolate chip cookie that I like. A bit bummed that neither dessert wasn't something I liked. Also they don't have any drinks, which is also a bummer because milk or coffee would have gone great with the desserts. I'll probably come back and try something different, but for now either of what I tried really hit. However it's still worthy checking it out, because it might not have been my kind of taste of baked good, but could be for someone else.
