    The cake I was charged $200 for
    Janale F.

    After Covid, everyone seems to think they have new found skills that they don't have. I was scammed by this chick Rocio. She got the date of the event wrong, got the Jersey request (Poole) wrong and forgot to put Happy Birthday Elijah on the cake. I'm a single Mom and I wanted this cake to be special for my son. I paid $285.00, drove from San Jose to Oakland thinking this woman had skills. I should have known something was up the way she quickly placed the cake in the back seat of my car and left in a hurry.

    At the last minute, I decided to try and order a small "wedding cake" for my second wedding anniversary. Rocio was so great to work with, from concept/ design, to flavors/ options, to pick up/delivery. The cake exceeded my expectations aesthetically and was absolutely delicious! I'm eating a piece for breakfast as I write this review. Can't recommend her enough!

    Gorgeous custom made cookies for my moms 60th birthday!
    Raquel C.

    For my mom's 60th birthday Rocio made us custom cookies. These cookies were amazing!!! Not only were they beautifully done, they also tasted super yummy. Thanks Rocio!!!

    Ghetto Bakery Pinterest fail shop. See the details for what I ordered vs. what I got. This ultimate fail cost me $285.00 and she offered a $20.00 refund because she felt bad. When I told her what I thought was a reasonable refund ($60.00) she ghosted me. Cake tasted like trash too. She put whole blueberries with a lemon flavor frosting

    Rocio and her crew made my kids birthday the most cutest tastest cake! Her cake was moist and exactly what my kids wanted! She also made them cupcakes and lego cookies for each kid at the party! All the parents at the party kept asking who made my cake and cookies they are so yummy. I would reccomend plate me a cake and will be using her for all the birthdays!

    Rocio is amazing!!! We had a last minute cake emergency (less than 24 hr notice). I called Rocio and explained our tight schedule and our design for the cake, she was easy to work with and very accommodating. We didn't think we would be able to find someone to make a cake with our time frame but she immediately said she could do it, and nailed the design!

    Cookies and cheesecake

    I met Rocio at a wedding fair, at first interaction, I knew she genuinely cared about her products! I hired Plate Me a Cake for my engagement party, and let's just say, every single item that I ordered was a hit with my guests! Especially her cheesecake! Not only are her desserts decorated beautifully, they also taste GREAT! I am looking forward to working with Plate Me a Cake for my future events!

    strawberry shortcake
    Erika R.

    Rocio & her team were amazing. First off, they answer their phone. Second off, I called on very short notice and they were so accommodating. Third, easy to work with, gave great suggestions & options. Fourth, although the delivery person got lost they called immediately & followed directions well. Fifth, the cake itself was delicious & fresh. We ordered strawberry shortcake & everybody loved it! The price was reasonable & I have zero complaints!

    Rocio did the desert table for my son birthday party. I got so many compliments of how tasty and beautiful it looked. She was did sports theme. She even created a baseball glove made out of chocolate with cake pop ball inside. She is very professional and very easy to communicate. She understand what you want and give suggestion on how to make it better.

    Cookies

    I've ordered twice from plate me a cake and haven't been disappointed. Her attention to detail in my orders were amazing. She nailed every single detail I asked her for. She's always very responsive and easy to work with. I highly recommended her for any desert need you may have. Prices are a bit high but her work is worth it. They don't just look pretty they are delicious as well.

    Rocio did such an amazing job with my wedding cupcakes and cutting cake! She was great at being in touch and responding to all my emails, and she even got back to me while she was on vacation! She was really helpful in figuring how many cupcakes to order and had no problem with making all seven different flavor combinations we wanted. Our "naked cake" cutting cake was beautiful, and she even added some flowers and greenery to make it even more special. She showed up on time and made a beautiful display, I got so many compliments on how delicious the cupcakes were! I would definitely recommend Rocio and Plate Me A Cake for any dessert needs and would definitely use her again! Thanks, Rocio!!!

    SO GOOD. Loved all the flavors I tried (minus the Cookie Milk & Cookies--for some reason I wasn't a…read morefan). Every ice cream, including the vegan options, was so creamy and soft. Highly recommend the Pandan Hojicha (not too sweet--very rich in tea flavor), Ube Flan (sweet and ube-y with milky flan swirls), and Banana w/ Dulce de Leche (fresh and sweet banana flavor with caramel). They do charge $1 for any kind of cone FYI Will defo be returning!! Especially to try Breakfast Brownie & Cantaloupe (both were sold out when we went). Super close (barely a block away) from Fox Theater with a solid amount of metered street parking around

    Fell in love with Miharu after a friend suggested we try it out on a whim before a concert at Fox…read moreTheater! The moment you walk into the shop, you'll notice the current flavor offerings displayed on colorful ice cream-shaped signs across the wall to the right. I could spend an eternity studying each flavor, but there's limited space to queue indoors so really gotta decide on a flavor and serving style fast in order to keep the line moving. Among the flavors were some classics, fruity/floral mixes, and dessert-inspired ones too, a whole range so there's something for everyone. I got the Breakfast Brownie and it was unforgettable! It tasted creamy and delightful without being overwhelming, while the cornflakes mixed inside added a satisfying crunch to each bite. I came back a second time before a show at Crybaby, a smaller venue across the street. Grabbing a scoop here to-go has naturally become part of my pre-concert routine at this point and I plan to come back again next time to explore more flavors. If you're ever heading to a show nearby, I'd definitely recommend stopping by beforehand for a lil energy boost and treat.

    Food looked delicious, I got myself a blueberry strudel cheesecake!…read more Service put me at ease when he told me about the options of historic cheesecake. When you go inside all the cheesecake and cookies, Peach cobbler just makes you feel so at home and feel good. Place was operating well, seem like a great business. The food taste as if it's made with Love.

    I've heard many things about Gregory's Gourmet Desserts but tried it today for the first time…read more Parking was a challenge, with the location being nestled within downtown, closer to Lake Merritt. I was surprised that no one spoke of business specifics in their reviews. There is a limit to how many can come in; and you are not allowed to touch anything when inside. There are also no prices listed anywhere. We thought this was odd. Our order: * Personal Peach Cobbler * Walnut Brownie * Banana Pudding For these 3 items, our total was over $25. The service was friendly but a bit awkward. You are only able to see cases of dessert options, it is more of a pick-up point, not so much a bakery location you can browse. I wouldn't suggest coming as a large group, there is no where to sit to enjoy your baked goods and parking is very difficult. While the cobbler and banana pudding were good, I wasn't a fan of the brownie. My partner enjoyed the cobbler a lot, but when we did the calculations, the prices were astronomical. I'm not sure what gourmet difference the items contained, but we likely would not come back to this bakery considering prices and parking. The location is cute, in theory, but with no actual location or displays, or price lists- what you pay for doesn't balance out. The lack of transparency for prices was very sus to us. I'm sure the business will continue on especially with how much they charged. I can't imagine the bakery location and building rent costing a lot as far as operating costs; as it is small, and not expansive at all. The price of the baked goods doesn't even go towards branded packaging. Which could be understandable. The only beverages available that I seen was Nesquik. Steep prices with no justification - especially when you have other bakeries in the area, in addition to Nation's for Pies, very affordable and classic as well. E&J's has a great banana pudding and cobbler as well for $6- they are also a Black-owned business and family operated. Absolutely no bad intent, just wanting to share transparency in my review so Yelpers know that prices are not listed, which means they are subject to fluctuation- in this economy that is not a fair way of doing business. One star per item we liked, for this review. As much signage is visible upon entry regarding rules and limited persons for entry at a time- not one area provided prices; only signs that tell you not to touch. It's required by law for prices at every establishment to be listed, according to SB 478 for general consumer goods and services in California.

    Bummed that they are no longer operating in the Bay Area, but glad I was able to try Basuku earlier…read morethis year before they moved away. And yes, the cheesecake is great - probably the best rendition of basque cheesecake I've had. I love that it's not too cream-cheese-y in flavor, and the texture is smooth and creamy. Of the flavors we tried, the cookies and cream was my favorite. The coffee had a very strong coffee flavor.

    Basuku has the most decadent basque cheesecakes in the Bay Area. I've been a fan for years, and…read morethey recently posted that they'll be leaving the bay to pursue other locations (Japan/Taiwan). If you haven't tried them yet, go before it's too late! I've been lucky enough to try four of their flavors, and each one showcases their signature silky texture and deep flavor. All are not too sweet! My personal favorite is the Kyoto Matcha - the matcha is high-quality, with a vivid green color and rich flavor that balances beautifully with the creamy cheesecake base. The Original is a classic for a reason with deeply caramelized top and creamy interior. I also tried the Iribancha, a roasted green tea flavor. It's intense, smoky, and unique..maybe not one I could finish in one sitting, but definitely memorable and recommend for those who want that earthy/smoky taste. The truffle was also a standout, adding just enough umami to round out the sweetness. Preorders drop via Instagram (@basukucheesecakes) and sell out lightning-fast. Otherwise, plan to line up for slices! Wishing Basuku all the best on their next chapter. Fingers crossed for a return to the Bay someday! Until then, don't miss your chance to try what might be the best cheesecake you've ever had.

    I won a Bad Walters gift card in a white elephant exchange. I was initially fighting for artisanal…read moreolive oil but decided to let my uncles have it. They own an apartment in Paris and I didn't want to offend them with my usual guerrilla tactics. I'm known to fight dirty and conspire with others during this game and everybody hates me because of it, and I didn't want to be banned from their apartment, as Paris in the fall is lovely. Thus my journey with Walter began. One thing about me, is I respect a place that knows flavors. I don't want basic vanilla, give me some weird and strange and flavorful that will tantalize my palette and ignite my senses. Give me salty and sweet. Give me TANG. Give me these things and DONT give me gas. Bad Walters cracked the code. All flavor, real dairy, no lactose, no gas. Each week they have a different batch of flavors, so there's always something new to explore. There's like 6 flavors to choose from at once and they let me try them all before I selected my choice hehe. I tried to sample 6 flavors at Cold Stone and they took me out back and shot me, but here, nobody was mean to me. Mr. Potatohead is the flavor I landed on--brown sugar custard with peanut butter swirl and chocolate covered potato chips. The chunks of chocolate covered potato chips were lodged in the ice cream and I felt like an archaeologist excavating ancient rocks as my spoon lifted the potato chocolate chunks out of the creamy custard into my mouth. I bought a pint. The Mick Jagger was another joy, with its salty caramel and Oreo chunks. They're lucky Peaches Christ was sold out because I might've lost my mind for a peach cobbler ice cream! They wouldve had to drag me out by the back of my neck like a rabid dog! Maybe next time. All in all, tasty ice cream. Would recommend.

    Bad Walter's was a random find one day out walking after dinner. The funny name and logo drew us…read morein, then once we saw it was ice cream, AND dairy free, we were IN. We have been extremely loyal customers ever since. They rotate flavors, but through many months and many visits I don't think I've ever tried a bad one. The flavors are also very fun, not your typical cookies and cream, cookie dough, etc. Although they do have a plain version sometimes. The employees are very helpful and kind letting you sample the flavors. Our absolute favorite is tinky winky- ube flavored ice cream with honey comb pieces. They also sell points to the side- take advantage. You'll want more when you're done! The ambiance and vibe of bad Walter's is perfect. Bright colors, disco ball dripping, fun sayings on the cups, the whole 9 yards. The take home pint we got has Reddit "hate" comments and their responses, it's hilarious. This ice cream store is way more of a vibe than any marketing agent could dream of. Who would've thought I wish I could be a rep for an ice cream company? Oh and they also do a stamp card when you buy pints to get a free scoop. You bring in the containers so they can recycle them. It's a win win for both sides, loves it. Best ice cream ever!!!
