Blueberry scone and London fog, hot tea amazing and delicious. Highly recommend I will be back.

Finally made it back after such a long time! I grabbed some cupcakes for a clients work event, and had perfectly enough for my five clients plus me to celebrate a 70th birthday. A client last minute added in. First, you know the cupcakes LOOK good when the gluten free lady decides to take a cupcake... and is upset she got the last one so she didn't get a choice. (Also meant I didn't get one!!) everyone gobbled their cupcakes. When my SO and I finally got to our destination, he shared his cupcake with me. I got him the strawberry and cream. The FIRST thing he said was, "mmm." Then we talked about how much better this cupcake was compared to one that I got from another bakery yesterday. (Taste testing is a hard job.) I also got a red bean matcha!! Shirley added in cold foam for me. The matcha is soooo good and I was so happy to see red bean as an option. I miss my Chinese flavors so much! Definitely can't wait to be back!

The best chocolate mousse cake in the world!

The only problem with the Shugar Shack is that it's way too close to my house, so the allure of their insanely delicious baked treats is just impossible to pass up. Their chocolate chip cookies are fantastic! Also, their chocolate moose cake that I brought to a party awhile back was a massive hit! If you live anywhere near Huntington Beach, checking out the Shugar Shack will definitely make your day!

My daughter's fiancee's custom graduation cake. It was GONE! Not a crumb left from any cakes I had made from here!
Donna L.

I have been getting my daughter's ( and soon to be son in law's) cakes made here for the past 5 years! They are absolutely delicious, beautifully decorated and fantastic to work with! Their service is OUTSTANDING!!

Custom made multi layer birthday cake

Amazing dessert artists! I came in with some pictures for reference, and after going over a few ideas, they made an incredible birthday cake which was admired and enjoyed by all at the party! The cake turned out amazing, my girlfriend loved it Thanks to the team at Shugar Shack!

Like the love shack but better. This local business shares the same parking lot as Trader Joe's, so you know I've driven by it a couple dozen times. I had no idea how good the insides were until this past week. I placed an order for takeout on Yelp after having a tough day. Because any bad day can be fixed with a sweet treat. I ended up ordering the horchata matcha latte, the turkey sandwich, and a chicken pot pie. After stepping foot in the store I wish I bought more. Their food displays were filled with delicious looking cookies, cupcakes, scones, and croissants. The horchata matcha was a little sweet for my personal taste, but I should have guessed that from the menu name alone. The food was absolutely divine. I'm a sucker for a solid chicken pot pie. I loved that the inside was spacious and offered some community seating for students and those who wfh. Can't wait to return to cowork with a girlfriend!

Cute mini cake
Natalie G.

Quality, tasty, and cool vibes! I love my Shugar Shack visits. Their crack cookies are a no-brainer, cupcakes are so good, and I love buying their mini cakes. Perfect for adult parties and you don't feel bad about wasting a bunch of cake. I always get lucky with finding a good one already made, but I'd definitely consider ordering as well. They were nice enough to add text as well. Also love their cheap bags of yesterday's items. Fun to try a variety of things!

Amazing piece of artwork with edible rocks!

OUR CAKE TURNED OUT SOOOOOO AMAZING!!! Thank you for the most beautiful, creative and delicious cake we've ever had!!! We are so glad that we put our complete trust in your talent and artistry and let you surprise us with a cake far beyond our expectations! Everyone was BLOWN away by the breathtaking beauty and the deliciousness!! Seriously, everyone was gathered around taking photos and videos. The cake masterpiece by far had more paparazzi than the birthday boy! Everyone was shocked that we had to slice it up, some guests tried tell us to not slice or serve it! I hope it brings many more prospective customers your way. Thank you and your staff for all the effort they put into this. We can really tell that this was baked and created out of LOVE. Truly amazing!! PS: you were so right, so many people love German chocolate cake. It must be just me. Remind me next time to get a bigger cake

James A.

A little off the beaten path, but dear LORD, am I glad I found this place. So many incredible baked offerings, you'll be hard pressed to not find something that'll blow your socks off. Me? I chose the sugar free blueberry lemon bar. This is sugar free? COME ON! I can't wait to try more items. GO HERE!

Hands down one of our favorite small businesses. The owner is awesome. She has helped us through holiday treats and birthday cakes. Everything is top notch. We also love just popping in to get some cupcakes, cookies, or breakfast. There are so many options for dietary needs from sugar free, to gluten free, to vegan. It's easy to go with friends and family and ensure everyone leaves happy. Always clean and inviting. Love the decor and seating options. Highly recommend stopping by If you have not already! You will not be disappointed.

From the too good to go app
Lisa L.

I found Shugar Shack thru the "too good to go" app, I reserved my "surprise bag" and came to pick it up. When I first arrived, I wasn't greeted (ok no big deal the worker was helping someone else already) I even considered leaving at one point but I thought to myself I already paid for my order so I just told myself to wait to get it. So I started to browse their selection. Then I realized it was gonna take a while bc the customer had bought a few things plus drinks so while the worker was making the drinks and preparing her order I went to use the restroom. When I got out, the worker was still helping the customer (at this point still no acknowledgment) okay whatever still no big deal bc she's busy. Then when the customer left, it was my turn and I told the worker I was there for my surprise bag. She then prepares my bag and hands it to me. I went home and saw I got 4 cupcakes for $6 (before taxes). Unfortunately the two cupcakes with the little cake sponge on top were dry. However the two in the back (vanilla) were really good. I probably won't come back to try other items. Honorable Mentions: -Plenty of parking

I came to Shirley with a vision and she exceeded expectations. Thank you for killing it with my wife's birthday cake!

Have you stopped selling sugar free cupcakes ? In the last three years you've had them twice when I visit. I have given up checking.

Hi Chris, We only sell them as a pre-order option. We sometimes have it if we have a pre-order and… 

I'm looking for a cake that's less sweet but still uses sugar not sugar substitutes...a dense dark chocolate cake with vanilla filling/frosting, as close to Two Little Red Hens/Ladybird Bakery in NYC's version as possible...can your bakery do it?

Hi Katy, Our chocolate cake is more rich in chocolate and less sweet than other American style… 

Do you make keto cakes?

Yes, we do! We have a variety of keto options - all made to order!

Easy to park in their lot and it was free with validation. Six or so tables along the glass on the patio, and another 4-6 in the dining room, make this a wonderful pace for dinner, apps or drinks while watching a sunset. Mia at the front desk made sure we had a great seat. Phil was our waiter and he took great care of us all evening. A delicious paloma martini got us started and we loved the spicy tuna tartare tacos. The short ribs with pineapple cheesy risotto was yummy and my wife loved the salmon and mashed potatoes. Huge portions and the price was not crazy. Pretty quiet on the patio aside from a few loud motorcycles along PCH. The dining room was a bit louder with the piped in music but too loud in there. We will definitely be back. Solid dinner house with great ocean views.

I'm really disappointed to have to update my review after our latest experience at The Brant…read more Unfortunately, the lack of hospitality we experienced this time was incredibly disappointing from the moment we arrived. We brought my stepdad, who was in a wheelchair, and when we entered, there were two young women working at the front. Despite clearly seeing us trying to navigate the entrance with his wheelchair, neither offered to help with the door. We literally had to ask them to assist us. Something as simple as holding the door for a guest in a wheelchair should be basic hospitality and common courtesy. Unfortunately, the experience did not improve once we sat down at the bar. Our bartender, Viviana/Vidiana, essentially ignored us. My stepdad ordered a glass of Chardonnay, and she clearly heard his order. Rather than acknowledging him or getting his drink, she continued talking to another couple at the bar about how she couldn't wait to be off work. She then walked away, said something quietly to the bartender coming on shift about my stepdad wanting a Chardonnay, grabbed her purse, and left. There was no "Someone else will be taking care of you," no acknowledgment of his order, no goodbye -- nothing. It honestly came across as incredibly rude and dismissive. What bothered me most wasn't having to wait for a glass of wine; it was the complete lack of warmth, attentiveness, and basic hospitality throughout the experience. When you are bringing a family member who uses a wheelchair somewhere, you already have additional things to navigate. Having staff make you feel like an inconvenience rather than welcomed guests makes the experience that much worse. We have enjoyed The Brant before, which is why this visit was especially disappointing. Hospitality is about making people feel welcome and cared for, and unfortunately, that was completely missing during our latest visit.

I finally made it back after a few years, and I'm glad I did. They have a surprisingly wide menu--burgers, breakfast, bowls, tacos, salads, you name it--and the owner is friendly and welcoming. I stopped in around 11 AM for an early lunch and got the Pocket Burger. It has that delicious sweet-and-savory thing going on: salty bacon, fried egg, avocado, and teriyaki sauce that enhances the burger without overpowering it. It all comes on a delicious brioche bun that soaks up the sauce and all those burger juices. Really flavorful and definitely restaurant-quality. It's also gloriously messy. I finally gave up and ate it with a fork and knife. I'll just fake an English accent so everyone thinks I'm sophisticated instead of a weirdo. Totally worth it. It costs a little more than your basic burger, but it's unique, delicious, and a great break from the usual In-N-Out routine. It's right across from the kayak place in Sunset Beach, so go kayaking, grab a Pocket Burger, and have a great day. Just remember to get there before 3!
