I saw that they had the best reviews and the cakes looked yummy! I contacted the owner and shared our ideas. She was honest from the beginning and said she had never done a cake like what we were requesting; however, she nailed it. It was exactly what we wanted. We received so many compliments on both the looks and taste of the cake. We could not have been happier with the cake. We definitely recommend Sweet Oven Bliss for any event.

We were greeted when we walked in and the lady at the front was super friendly and welcoming. That's always my cue to stay and try it out. We tried the banana pudding, piece of vanilla cake, red velvet stuffed chocolate chip cookie, and white chocolate with pistachio. Here are my ratings: Banana Pudding - 10/10 Vanilla cake - 10/10 Red velvet stuffed cookie - 7/10 White chocolate with pistachio - 6/10 We'll definitely be back to try more!

Not super friendly, we felt very rushed and they tossed our cookies into one small clear plastic container so two were broken before we even walked out of the tiny shop. They ran out of bags, so we hand carried everything out. They didn't have napkins, but a few spoons in the window. Treats: $5 cookies always look amazing but were overly sweet today. Espresso was the most balanced. The chocolate and banana pudding's were very rich, 2 for $15. The kids don't care about service, so we'll try the Brea location.

Thank you so much, Larry, for helping make our celebration extra special!

People raved about the strawberry cheesecake. I was asked by multiple people where I got these cupcakes from. I had the chance to sample both, and honestly the triple chocolate was delicious as well. The cake is moist, the frosting buttery and not super sweet. I can see why the strawberry cheesecake was the star of the show among the parents, though. As for customer service - great! Cupcake ready when promised. Larry helped me carry my order to the car, and gave me good instructions on care and transport. I would order from him again for any event.

Sugar Mama has you covered! I have tried a number of flavors now. I have had the mocha/coffee, chocolate chip cookie dough, strawberry, chocolate with vanilla buttercream icing, and lemon! I don't know that I could pick a favorite, I would have to eat them based on my mood. I wish I had pictures to post, but I always eat them too fast I guess! But as you can see by the other pictures, the quality is there! It's hard to eat other cupcakes now after enjoying Sugar Mama Cupcakery. There are so many more flavors that I want to try. Definitely try these cupcakes. You won't be sorry!

Enjoyed an afternoon tea at Sip & Sugar Co. What an amazing afternoon tea…read more I recently visited Sip & Sugar Co. and it is easily one of the cutest tea spots in Orange County. The space feels like stepping into a pastel dream, floral ceilings, blush pink velvet chairs, gold accents, and delicate tea sets everywhere. It's the kind of place that instantly sets the tone for a special occasion, making it perfect for baby showers, bridal showers, birthdays, or a girls' day out. The highlight is their afternoon tea prefixe experience, which is priced around $45 per guest for the standard service. It includes five tea sandwiches, two seasonal scones with jam and cream, three desserts, fresh fruit, and your choice of loose-leaf tea. Everything is beautifully presented on a tiered tray, giving you that classic tea-time feel while still being fun and modern. They also offer a lighter option like a tea flight + dessert pairing for about $25, which is great if you want a smaller experience. Portions are typical for afternoon tea, small but satisfying and the scones were definitely a standout. Soft, slightly warm, and perfect with the jam and cream. The overall experience is more about slowing down and enjoying the moment rather than rushing through a meal. Service is relaxed and matches the vibe of the space, so plan to take your time and soak it all in. Overall, Sip & Sugar Co. delivers on both aesthetic and experience. You're definitely paying for the ambiance and presentation, but it's worth it if you're celebrating or just want something a little extra.

Vibe: Girly and cute, the place is adorned with faux flowers on the wall, flower table cloths, pink…read morevelvet chairs. Definitely an overall Pink theme. It looks clean and spacious enough for a small scale tea shop. There are a-la-carte menu items (pastries, tea) and an afternoon tea menu. Price: $45 for the Royal Tea Experience package which is extremely reasonable considering what you get. There is a 90 mins max for each tea experience. They are pretty booked from what I saw. Food: For the Royal Tea Experience, each of us got: tea of choice, 5 tea sandwiches (Cucumber Dill Cream cheese, Chicken Salad, Egg Salad, Cranberry Turkey pinwheel, Roast Beed Arugula), 2 scones (Vanilla and Strawberry), Cream, Strawberry preserve, berries and some grapes, 3 desserts (mini muffin, Chocolate brownie, some kind of mini cake). The tea pots were a lot smaller than other places I've been to (probably enough for 1.5 cups of tea if filled to the rim). I love the heart-shaped sugar cubes, the size is just enough for a half teaspoon of sugar. They didn't have any milk for the tea set up like other places I've been to. I love the roast beef sandwich balanced flavor; the chicken one is really bland, a dash of curry powder would enhance the flavor more in my opinion; the cucumber needs to be sliced thinner as these slices are rather chunky; the scones are fine - I usually prefer my scones warm but only 1 place I know that serve it that way. The tea selection is decent, I went for Jasmine Rose. I feel that the scent and tea flavor was rather weak. There was barely any scent of each so it didn't leave a big impression on me. I want to try other ones in the future for sure. The staff was super nice to offer an extra tea bag if the flavor is too weak so I went for another bag. Service: Excellent! They were fast, courteous, and friendly. 2 staff made their rounds frequently to check on us and made sure we had enough hot water in our tea pots . Parking: This is where I docked up a star. The parking lot is shared with many businesses in the same strip mall. I came here at 10 AM on a Saturday and the whole parking lot was filled, there was no spot for me to park. My friend had to park all the way on the other side of the mall and I managed to find some parking in the back (side street). Avoid lunch time at all cost, there were cars waiting around as they couldn't find any parking. After the tea experience, we went somewhere else and upon coming back around 3 PM, half the parking lot is empty. If I would give anyone a tip on the parking time, it seems to be ideal around this time.

Took my granddaughter to lunch after a treatment at UCI and she chose Portos Bakery and Café. I was…read morethrilled because I've lived in California now almost 30 years and I had never tried Porto's, but always wanted to. I was fascinated and amazed from the time we got on Beach Boulevard and tried to turn into the parking lot. You had to strategically maneuver to get into the parking lot as you searched for a parking space. Many of the parking spaces were too small because of the large vehicles that were already on either side of that spot. It was so busy and this was a Sunday afternoon. It was a gridlock procession driving up the rows waiting for someone to leave so we could park. We finally found one and went inside the famous Porto's. I couldn't believe how large it was, and how there was a bakery on two sides so you could enter either to order. The place was bustling with people sitting out on the patio, sitting in the restaurant, at the coffee bar and people waiting in the long lines. The lines surprisingly moved quickly, which I was very pleased about. The hardest part was trying to figure out what you wanted to order, Everything looked, smelled and sounded mouth watering. I loved their assortment of choices. Everything was freshly baked and prepared. You could see the chefs through the glass preparing dishes and making desserts. I LOVED the prices! Very affordable. This is what I ordered spinach feta empanadas, an almond croissant, apple strudel, potato balls, chicken empanadas, a baked ham and cheese croissant and that was To-go. We ate for lunch the Chicken Plateau Cubana and the Lecha Plata Gabbana. I also ordered the cauliflower and broccoli soup and everything and I mean everything I ordered and took home was delicious. I loved the flavor with the exception of the soup. I just don't think cauliflower and broccoli are a good mix for me. The croissants and the empanadas and the potato balls. They were just savory and flaky and flavorful, and I'm just in love and I'm definitely going back!

The next day for pickup and the cake reveal, I was enthralled with how excellent the cake came out! I'm definitely making this bakery my go-to for birthday cakes and for pastries.

Last time I came into this amazing place I made the mistake of not trying their pup cupcakes!…read more It was my dogs birthday so I made the drive from Long Beach to HB. Because 1- My dog is worth it. And 2- they have the best human cupcakes I've ever had lol When I walked in I was immediately greeted by the owner who is so incredibly sweet. She remembered me and greeted me like she's known me for years. They had a 4 pack of pup cakes already packed up. So I grabbed those and told her it was my dogs birthday. Don't forget to ask her if she has a free candle or birthday topper available! She usually has a bunch behind the counter she hands out. She gave me a candle (I got to pick out the color) and I got a little tiny happy birthday topper to put in the pup cake PS- the pup cupcakes smell absolutely delicious! The peanut butter frosting smells out of this world. I almost took a bite. As always, this place is extremely clean Staff is great! Parking is great! Flavors to pick from are great They have a huge variety. I'm so bummed I got there too late and missed out on their coconut cupcake and they had a pistachio one!! (Her flavors are always the best and always changing) So I had to go with my old trusty. I got a wedding cake one and a birthday confetti one. Again, these cupcakes are HUGE. They have the perfect amount of frosting vs cake ratio, they are not dry at all!!! Hands down the best in Orange County I got sucked in. She can make any of her cupcake flavors into a donut. So I tried the strawberry donut (inspired by her strawberry cupcake) the donuts are all in the back and not on display like the cupcakes are It's the best of both worlds The donut was light and fresh. It tasted like a Krispy Kreme but with the delicious frosting of a cupcake. This is on the sweeter side, for me? Sweeter the better. But might be too sweet for others. I can't wait to come back here for all my cupcake and cake needs in the future!!! Give them a try, you and your dog will be extremely satisfied (I have never seen any bakery that is this dog friendly!!)

A good friend of mine had a birthday party for her daughter and the cake was so good! When I asked…read moreher the name of the bakery, she provided me this cake shop's information. I went in for a custom cake order, and the owner was able to accommodate within a 72 hour window. I'll say that my daughter does not actually eat cake. She eats frosting, but when I tell you, she ate her entire slice including the cake and the buttercream frosting! The cake was so moist and so beautiful! The prices are fair for the quality that you receive. However, I will say that when I inquired on a separate order if she's able to accommodate for gluten allergies, she said unfortunately no. Although her website does advertise that she can. Besides that, this is a solid option for custom cakes, especially if you like them small and stacked.
