First impression? Leah is an absolute sweetheart! So willing to be creative and so kind. The cake was absolutely perfect. Several people mentioned how delicious the cake was. One person actually said it was the most delicious cake they'd ever had! The cupcakes were adorable and very moist. I have found the designated cake maker for our family. If you're looking for a small business, woman owned EXCELLENT cake maker, give Pink Apron a call. I highly recommend this bakery for all your special cake needs. read more

First time trying Pink Apron Cakes over the weekend and all my guest loved the cake. Will definitely be a returning customer, thanks Leah!

For our first-born daughter's 7th birthday, I decided to seek a local baker with COVID-19 well in swing. Leah of Pink Apron Cakes was quick to call me back after I had left her a voicemail. She's incredibly nice and easy to work with. Because we didn't anticipate a large gathering, I went with an 8" 2-layer of their most popular flavor, "triple chocolate salted caramel cake" ($40). I sent her a photo of the pink cat decorations that I picked out so she could add an edible image ($12). The edible image was a bit weird to eat. It was just one of those things that we all just scraped it off because the rest of the cake was amazingly soft and delicious. For pick-ups, just call her and she'll bring your sweet treat to your door with face mask on. I called her about a week and a half before I needed it, but I suggest giving her at least two weeks notice in case she gets busy. PayPal is the preferred touchless payment method. Support local bakers! read more

For my nephew's recent birthday celebration, my sister ordered a cake from Pink Apron Cakes, and it was a huge hit! The cake was not only delicious but also incredibly moist, which is always a sign of a well-made dessert. I was so impressed that I immediately asked for their details because they truly deserve a glowing review. The unique flavor really stood out and had everyone talking! read more

I contacted Pink Apron Cakes for a custom baby shower cake. I spoke with Leah & shared a picture of the design I wanted. She was very nice, professional, and sweet. She provided me with a quote on a 8" & 10" cake & I must say, "no bakery can beat them!" The cake flavor was marble with fresh strawberries topped with butter cream frosting. It was moist and was delicious! Everyone liked it!!! Thank you Leah for delivering flavor, creativity, and service! I highly recommend anyone who's interested in ordering a custom cake to contact Pink Apron Cakes!!! read more

So I was looking for cakes all over Arcadia, Pasadena, LA... even as far as Rancho and OC but to be honest, I didn't want to drive way too far while harboring a cake in my car. At the very last minute, I found this place amongst a million other bakeries but was in awe of all of the pictures posted here on Yelp. Plus, I wanted to try a new place besides all of the other usual and more popular shops around my area. I managed to call Leah on her day off (sorry!) and asked if she could make a birthday cake at the very last minute and I'm so glad she was able to help me with my request. I ordered the triple chocolate salted caramel cake and it tastes just as good as it looks! The cake wasn't dry, had the right amount of sweetness to someone who loves sugar as much as I do but not overpowering to those who don't have as much of a sweet tooth like the birthday boy; the cake truly had the right balance and it was nicely decorated for one of the more "simple" cakes she makes. Also, I'm quite surprised by the reasonable prices because all of the other cakes are just so beautiful and tempting. Pink Apron Cakes is located inside Tiffany's Catering shop but I guess they both make the same items or ... actually, I don't even know, but they are both so welcoming and the sweetest. I'm definitely coming back for all of my other cakes! Thanks Leah and Tiffany! read more

I placed a last minute order for 2 dozen cake pops and Leah delivered!!! The cake pops were a huge hit! Not only were they super cute, but moist and delicious! I highly recommend Pink Apron Cakes!!!! read more

Leah was so wonderful to work with. Not only did she respond quickly to my inquiry but her delivery of my daughter's birthday cake was beyond my expectations. My daughter just turned 4 and is going through the whole LOL Surprise Dolls craze. I reached out to multiple bakeries who either charged an arm and a leg or wouldn't be able to provide any designs for the cake I wanted... Until I found Leah. The cake was beautifully designed, moist, and really flavorable. I will definitely be ordering my future desserts from her moving forward. read more

Pink Apron Cakes - Love, love, love ... Thank you, Leah! - Desserts Near Me - Downey, California

so happy I found this lovely place! I came in on Tuesday looking for a cake and desserts for Friday of that same week. She was able to accommodate my request on such a short notice. Based on the reviews I choose to try the triple chocolate sea salt caramel , best decision ever. Service was excellent, prices were reasonable and best part is they do deliver (delivery fee applies) I picked up my order but I did inquire about delivery for future events and prices aren't bad at all. Highlight : Everyone at our dinner party was raving about how delicious the cake was. This place is officially my new go-to Bakery!! read more

Cupcakes worth driving for! I live in Whittier and I could honestly say I would drive every time just to try the specialty cupcakes that Pink Apron has to offer. If you haven't yet done so, I highly recommend that you gave @pinkaproncakes a follow on Instagram so you won't miss on what the specialty cupcakes are for that week. What I like about Pink Apron's approach to making specialty cupcake is that they change it from week to week, to give you a fresh look as to what a cupcake is suppose to taste like. They got unique flavors from cookies and cream cupcake, cherry cola, nutella, and who would think of smores being on a cupcake? They also have my favorite cupcake which is the Triple Salted Chocolate Caramel. It's the perfect blend of saltiness along with the sweetness of chocolate, and who doesn't like caramel? I make it a point to never leave without them along with any other specialty cupcake. Highly recommended for your first time at Pink Apron Cakes. read more

Pink Apron Cakes - Here I got from left to right; 4 nutella, 4 triple salted chocolate caramel and 4 smores cupcakes. Which would you try first? - Desserts Near Me - Downey, California

By far the best service I have had in a very long time with a special ordered cake. I called with less than 24hours for a custom cake and Leah was able to accommodate everything for me!! Not to mention the flavor and taste of the cake was off the chart!! The decoration was done exactly how I envisioned and she was so very easy to talk and deal with via phone and email. I will definitely come back here in the future!! read more

Recently ordered two cakes. Ordering was a breeze. Leah delivered right on time. Cakes were beautiful. We ordered the vanilla cake with raspberry mouse filling. The cake was so moist and the filling had a wonderful flavor of fresh berries. The second cake we ordered was the chocolate salted caramel. In one word.....Amazing!! Our guest loved them both but the chocolate caramel was the favorite. Thank you Pink Apron !! read more

Incredible, unique new bakery here in Monterey Park. They had a nice grand opening event recently and I had a chance to sample several different kinds of cupcakes. As a self-appointed cupcake connoisseur, I must say that these cupcakes are in a word, "bitchin'"! They were super moist, but not heavy, perfect consistency really. They also seemed to have achieved the golden ratio of frosting to cake. Also, these aren't just any generic flavored cupcakes. The baker seems to be a blend of culinary-artisan/mad-scientist. With flavors like "Cherry Coke" and "Irish Car Bomb" [Note: You absolutely must try the car bomb .I swear on the grave of my father Domingo Montoya, you will be blown away]. These cupcakes are like a musical concert to the palette, if that concert featured Andrea Bocelli, Louis Armstrong, and Led Zeppelin all at the same time. So yeah, there's a new bake shop in town and it's awesome. Go there and be transported to cupcake heaven. Future you will thank you. read more

Totally blown away! I told Leah that I wanted a classic Pooh theme, not new Pooh, the original Pooh, for my daughter's baby shower and she went above and beyond to create an amazing display!Complete with take home party cookies, cake pops and mini cupcakes! Everyone just loved it, and everything tasted awesome too! The taste of the cake was the true test. Many can make beautiful cakes, but I've had many beautiful cakes that were dry inside. Not these! The cakes, cookies and everything were wonderful! read more

Here's a delayed update...Leah is incredible and her work is top quality. Between photo proofs and text updates...She delivered!!!!! Literally. She dropped it to my boyfriend's office!! He was so surprised and pleased. His coworkers raved on and on and on about how delicious her cake was. Even though I don't live close, I will be using her in the future. And you should too :) read more

Leah made a very detailed cake for me for an important event and it was amazing!!!! Not only did it look wonderful but it tasted even better. Everyone at my event said that the cake was a huge highlight and tasted delicious. She was professional, responsive and affordable. She even delivered the cake despite an unexpected funeral for a close friend that was scheduled on the same day as my event. I highly recommend her services!! read more

First of all, the cake looked nothing like how i expected it to be. I showed the woman a picture of the cake i wanted and when i received it, it looked nothing how it was supposed to be. Secondly, the cake was delivered to me, which was very inconvenient because I was originally supposed to pick up the cake. In the end, i had to purchase some decorations for the cake so that the cake didn't look so plain. read more

Best cupcakes ever......The chocolate Salted Carmel Cupcakes are to die for. The staff is always pleasant. read more

Leah made our wedding cake for our wedding over a week ago. She did an outstanding job! She made a beautiful semi-naked cake for us. My wife indicated that she wanted a semi-naked cake with decorations that matched our wedding colors. Though my wife was not very specific, we got everything we wished for and more. Our wedding cake was truly a work of art. Furthermore, she can make egg-less and vegan cakes. Leah made us both a cake with eggs and an egg-less cake, so we got to try both. Now, I am not cake person, but Leah made such a delicious egg-less cake that it is making me reconsider. My wife and her aunt are cake people, even cake connoisseurs, and they both approved of the wedding cake as well. Leah and her husband are absolutely wonderful, and the made us a beautiful and delicious wedding cake. Thank you so much! read more

Had a hard time deciding between a three and four star rating. Leah is very professional and made a lovely birthday cake with all the design elements that she suggested and it was beautiful. But it was supposed to have whipped cream frosting and this frosting was not real whipped cream. It had a strange flavor and texture. Quite disappointed. Wish I'd been told that it wasn't going to be real whipped cream. read more

Leah was great! She was amazing when we went to do a cake tasting with her. She was gracious with her recommendations. She delivered our wedding cake to the house and decorated it on the spot so it was perfect!!! Very reasonably priced and it was so delicious. My guests were talking about this cake for days after the reception. I have had several guests reach out and ask what bakery it was from. I would order from her again in a heartbeat. My only regret was that we didn't get to try all her amazing flavor options :) read more

Enjoyed the Grand Opening and let me tell you, Pink Apron will destroy your taste buds. You will not want to go to any other bakery. I have tried other cupcakes & cakes more recently while attending events and they are always disappointing. Pink Apron is so good. The red velvet the best and the key lime cupcake and car bomb cup cake was... YUM!!! read more

Love love love these cupcakes. The flavors are so unique and cakes are so moist. Great pricing too!

For several years I've searched high and low for someone who can bake me a KEYLIME CAKE and NOT a pie nor cupcakes. I've asked SEVERAL bakers if they could make this flavor cake and the answer was always "no". I don't know what it is about this flavor. I finally got someone to make me a key lime cake last year and it was DISGUSTING! We ended up tossing it! I decided to search one last time this year, in a short time notice, for a very special occasion. I DON'T KNOW HOW nor WHY I hadn't encountered Leah at Pink Apron Cakes sooner!! She literally has this flavor posted on her website and she's very local! I decided to give her a shot. I told her exactly what I was looking for. I told her that I'd leave the color and detail in her hands and OMG, THE CAKE was AMAZINGLYYYYYY delicious!!!!!! IT WAS EXACTLY WHAT I had been looking for alllll these years. It tasted EXACTLY LIKE KEY-LIME and NOT lemon. Per my request, one layer was mousse and the other layer was curd. Where had Leah been ALL MY LIFE? The birthday boy (finally) did not get enough of his FAVORITE flavor. Trust in me and trust in Leah and Pink Apron Cakes that she nor her desserts will NOT DISAPPOINT! I also had to change the date of pick-up and she did not hesitate at ALL to work with me. And the price was reasonable! Thank you, Leah! read more

I always have a sweet tooth and the desserts here just hits the spot. I remember going inside the bakery and like a little kid just mesmerize by the different displays of sweet goodies, thinking to myself "that looks good, but that looks good too". My fave is the triple salted caramel cupcakes. It has the perfect balance of saltiness and sweetness which I really like. There's something for everyone, highly recommend read more

Leah made us some cake pops for my sons graduation in June. They were so delicious and everyone said how good they tasted. They were decorated beautifully and exactly as we wanted. Leah communicated with me all the way through to make sure she understood what we wanted. She quickly responded to all emails I sent to her. I would definitely order from Pink Apron Cupcakes again! read more

My daughter and I went to see Leah about a baby shower we were planning and were so glad that we did. We had no idea what we needed or where to begin. Leah was so helpful and so sweet. They brought out mini cupcakes for us to sample which were absolutely delicious and helped us decide on what we needed. Everything turned out beautiful. The little cake she made for my grandson's shower was so perfect and delicious. All of our guests raved about it. She made several different desserts for us and everything was beautiful and delicious. We will definitely use Leah for all of our special celebrations and highly recommend her to everyone looking for a good baker for any occasion. Thank you Leah for making our event so much more special! read more

Pink Apron made the Wedding Shower I was hosting, a huge success. The pastries were delicious and the display was awesome. Leah was easy to work with and gave me great ideas. Everything arrived early and fresh and there was nothing left over after the event because people kept coming back for more. I will use Pink Apron again for sure. read more
