After, living in Costa Mesa for years, and walking by this bakery countless times I finally decided…read moreto check it out last month. I can't believe what I've been missing out on! The quality of the ingredients is noticeable, the staff is pleasant, and it has a nice ambience. I read some comments about how expensive it is, but everything is expensive these days! It's simply the cost of doing business, I mean you've seen the prices at the grocery store for literally everything! Ingredients are more expensive duh...so a little grace I think would be in order for a small business that is delivering on quality!

I've never put an order for a cake before so this experience is was all new to me. I went on their…read morewebsite to put in a request for a Napoleon birthday cake with a ganache top. They had a number which I called and the person on the other end gave a number which I could text more details about what I needed, for how many, my name, etc. Since they were driving and couldn't take my order at the moment I made sure to provide as much info and the time/day. I put the order 5 days before I said it needed it and they agreed it can be done by then. I thought it was easy and I just followed it up with the change of topping on the cake. I explicitly stated to text me if they needed anything else from me since I have never done this before. I probably should've followed them up, but I was busy that week. Since I didn't hear anything afterwards I thought I had secured my order. The day I come to pick up the cake, they tell me they don't have the order. The lady who I spoke to, who I'm assuming was on the phone when I initially called, is telling me I put a request not an order and that I didn't even provide my full name (not true, I did). I'm being told that I shouldve put down a deposit and have a contract with them for the cake. I wasn't provided with any contract or a Zelle username. If I had that information I would've absolutely done it. As a business you should provide the customer with that sort of information. I had no idea and I wasn't told that thru text. Should I have followed up? Absolutely, i know that now. There's no information on the website about a contract or deposit information. Only the phone number that I first called. So they should probably update that if they have so many orders and can't keep track with request. There was a lot of deflection from the lady when i tried to explain my grievance. No apology either for the confusion. I felt crazy because I thought I might've missed their messages. Nope nothing. Only the Zelle information after I had arrive there. Luckily, they had puff pastry ready and told me they could have the cake ready in 15 min, and I really needed the cake so I agree to still do business. When I got the cake it was still warm and they told me to freeze it in my refrigerator for it to set. 15 min to get to my place and the ganache has melted off the top and custard had already spilled out from the sides. I had a long drive afterwards and not even an insulated bag could save it. It did taste good, it's too bad about communication, and everything else.

I ordered this durian cake for our anniversary, and wow... it's easily the best cake I've ever had…read more If you love real durian, you'll love this cake. The cream is super smooth and filled with actual durian pulp--no artificial flavor at all. The sponge is so light and fluffy that it almost melts in your mouth, and it pairs perfectly with the rich, fruity durian cream. I already love fresh durian and durian ice cream, but this was my first time trying a durian cake, and it completely exceeded my expectations. The 6-inch cake was $68, so it's definitely a treat, but I'd happily buy it again. Just make sure to order a few days ahead. The service was amazing too. Since it was our anniversary, they added a cute "Happy Anniversary" sign to the cake at no extra charge. When we picked it up, they even reminded us to head straight home because the summer heat could affect the cake. You can tell they genuinely care about the quality of their cakes and want customers to enjoy them at their best. Definitely coming back to try more flavors!

This thing was enough for 2 people and for $25 its well worth it! You'll wait about 20 minutes for it to be done which was fine with me because that gave me a chance to grab some Mexican Bread! Everything was good, service was good and place was clean and plenty of seating! Will definitely be back when in the area!

My favorite cake is back, the Banana Chocolate Chip Cake =)…read more It is so good, just enough banana flavor with the bites of chocolate chips make this one of my favorite cakes. I also love their Chocolate Cake and Coconut Pineapple Cake. But it definitely has to sit at room temperature for a while. You do not want to eat this cold as it will be dry and hard due to the butter. Thank you SusieCakes for bringing back the Banana Chocolate Chip Cake :)

SusieCakes came in clutch recently as I pre-ordered a cake from another bakery that all of a sudden…read moreclosed and disappeared. In a rush, I looked at multiple places for a custom cake design. The customer service was fast and efficient and I was able to get a custom cake within a 72 hour timeframe. I got a custom space (Hitchiker's Guide to the Galaxy) cake within a carrot base. The carrot cake was great, with some walnuts and raisins to give a varied texture to the cake. The carrot cake itself was delightful as it was moist and spiced. The buttercream icing and decorations were done to spec and was the perfect surprise for my girlfriend! A warning for the dark blue icing is that it stains teeth and clothes somewhat! I do wish there was an option to have some cream cheese icing elements as that would have gone perfectly with the carrot cake! Overall, I am satisfied with delicious cakes and reliability of SusieCakes!

Seeing the cake setup from Simply Sweet Cakery left such a sweet impression on me…read more The design brought so much elegance into the room without feeling overdone. You could see the heart and patience in every detail and line of frosting, making it such a beautiful centerpiece for the reception space. Eddie was so professional, taking his time to ensure every flower and placement was completely secure before leaving. I'd happily recommend Simply Sweet Cakery and hope we share another wedding together soon.

One of the best chocolate cakes I've ever had. AND I LOVE CHOCOLATE CAKE…read more The cake was incredibly well balanced. It's very easy to make frosting too sweet, but the sugar levels in everything was just right! The cake had a lovely crumb and was moist on the inside. There was a deep, dark chocolate flavor. Sometimes with chocolate cake, the cake can be too rich and fudgy, but this cake did not have this problem. It was such an addicting cake and I could not stop myself from continuing to eat it. Again, it was well balanced, flavorful, had a good mouthfeel, and not too sweet. PERFECTION! Additionally, the party was a space themed party so we asked for a space-themed cake and the cake was SO CUTE. If I need cake for an event again, I will definitely order from here. And I will definitely be ordering the chocolate cake again!!!

She gave me her email and I emailed her around mid September about the cake. She gave me a list of flavors to pick from. * Chocolate * Confetti * Vanilla * Almond * Red velvet * Strawberry * Lemon and then asked what designed and etc. I actually told her to wing it and that I trusted her. I told her that I like VERY girly things. I love the color pink and to just make it girly lol She absolutely delivered. I picked it up on Oct 12th at 2 pm -Sky, helped me out with the cake. She let me take photos of it before packing it up (they also have the little happy birthday toppers for free in a jar at the cash register. I grabbed a white and gold one) Sky, was really friendly. She also grabbed me a chocolate cupcake I got for a friend and I got 4 pup cupcakes (buy 3 get 1 free) (Sky is one of the bakers here, not just the cashier) I am really pleased with how it turned out. It's something straight out of my girly dreams I'll definitely keep coming back and I always randomly tell people about this place if I overhear them talking about desserts / cupcakes

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.

Wonderful bakery! Most delicious cakes, cupcakes and goodies! I highly recommend!read more
