Amazing experience start to finish. Called in for a gender reveal cake for my sister-in-law and it turned out beautiful. Jen assisted with the order right away and considered the vision I had for the cake (requesting a link for picture). Multiple party guests complimented the cakes' taste and our 'mom-to-be' had the best surprise - a baby girl! Highly recommend, as I did to my family and friends. Will be back, tysm. read more

Gluten free review: I stopped here to get some sweets. I have three gluten-free delicious things and I wanted to try them on, so I got there a little sample trial. And I loved everything. They say they do make gluten-free cupcakes upon request if you order them early and they also do the same with dairy free. The lovely person helping me was very kind and knowledgeable. I will definitely go back. read more

After going to the bakery in downtown Vancouver that I usually frequent, and finding it closed on a Monday, I found this gem!! What a find! The folks at Simply Sweets were so friendly and helpful, and the little shop is adorable. The cookies and cupcakes I purchased for my neighbor's birthday were delicious...I will definitely be back!! And I'll be trying a cake next time! read more

This place makes some good cupcakes. We've ordered from them for many years. Sometimes the service is kind of cold, but overall a nice, small bakery hidden in a downtown neighborhood read more

I was disappointed in the pastries I bought at this facility and the service. When I arrived to check the place out I was excited to see a new business opened up in our neighborhood. Unfortunately they don't offer anything that's to die for. It would be nice if they offered a staple giant cinnamon roll and great coffee instead I found really dry pastries and ick coffee. read more

Fantastic experience ordering cupcakes last minute for my son's birthday. We were in town for a sports event and needed the cupcakes delivered to the hotel, a great experience and I would use them again! read more

I've used a different bakery for my daughter's birthday each year and have been disappointed with most but this bakery is the winner! I'm so happy and relieved to finally find a bakery with delicious cakes that aren't dry and have so much flavor and can do amazing art work! My daughter ordered the almond poppyseed for her main cake and then the chocolate cupcake with vanilla frosting and vanilla condor with chocolate frosting for the party goers. When we went in to pick up the cake and cupcakes, I loved their ambiance and decor inside and they had such delicious and beautiful looking desserts in their case I actually wanted to buy more. I will definitely be back to buy random things though! Very excited to do that. Highly recommend this bakery for specific cake designs. They knocked it out of the park! read more

I was disappointed with the Wedding cake that we purchased for our daughters special day. The cake was so sweet that I couldn't eat my piece. My husband said his piece was dry. It was a 3 tier cake strawberry, chocolate and champagne . The cake was so sweet you could not tell which one was strawberry and which one champagne . I refer to the cakes as the pink cakes. I returned most of the cake to the baker. She dismissed my complaint. This particular cake was the 3rd wedding cake that we purchased from them. They also baked my husbands 55th and 60th birthday cakes. We've been a customers for 10 years. They lost our business because of this incident. I hope they make some changes when dealing with complaints. read more

Value~ variety ~ quality ~ service ~ location Stopped in on a Wednesday afternoon to buy cupcakes for my husbands birthday. I live in downtown Vancouver so having this little gem within walking distance is a plus. I was impressed by the variety of options and the quick and friendly service. I ordered 1-1/2 dozen which included red velvet, pumpkin spice, raspberry vanilla, expresso chocolate and vanilla. While I waited for my cupcakes to be boxed I noted an amazing assortment of baked items like brownies, cookies, hand pies, toffee bars etc. I bought a couple cookies to eat on the way home. My husband and his party guest raved about all of them. I tried the pumpkin spice and red velvet both flavors where fresh, moist and delicious. I will be back for a cake next month. I was told by the nice girl that helped me they offer a few pre made cakes for last minute shoppers....like myself. read more

Custom Birthday Cake + Cupcakes We have ordered from Simply Sweets for my sons birthday for the last 3 years. The cake baker/designer has a son a similar age and she always seems to know exactly what we want for birthday parties. "This year he's into Star Wars..." and she says "let me guess... baby Yoda?" She loves what she does and has done an excellent job with everything we have ever ordered here. Not to mention- the cupcakes they do here are so soft and fresh and unlike any others I've tried. This location is a hidden gem and I would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for high value and quality. Worth every penny. read more

The desserts and service were amazing. My daughter randomly found a Easter egg and was able to redeem for a sweet. Totally made her day.

Simply Sweets was amazing to work with for my wedding cake. They were professional, accommodating and their prices are very reasonable. Most importantly, the cake was not only beautiful but tasted fabulous. We had one layer of pina coloda and one layer of orange dreamscicle. Im not a chocolate eater and unlike some bakeries, Simply Sweets had a lot of non-chocolate options. My husband and I could not have been happier. Thank you Simply Sweets!! read more

We came here today to support during the pandemic. The pastries were amazing! Few weeks ago we bought a couple dozens of cupcakes and only lasted within minutes after bringing it to work. Delicious and the flavors were unique! Today we tried other goodies and didn't disappoint. We had the cinnamon rolls for breakfast and can't wait to try the fruit tarts. These were all freshly baked. We are definitely coming back for more. Highly recommended! read more

WAY overpriced and very poor quality! Unfortunately there's no zero star option. We ordered 24 simply vanilla cupcakes for an event of over 200 people. They were stale and had a weird unpleasant flavor. When I called the owner to see if she could at least refund half, she got defensive, argued-refused to be helpful. She was very condescending about "what our meaning of stale is." She even argued that without having the cupcakes to look at and inspect (lol) there's not much she can do (well the event was on Saturday and it's now Wednesday) There were at least 6 of us that didn't finish our cupcakes because they were not good at all. No one that had them that day liked them. It's disappointing that a place run by someone that has no customer service skills of any kind stays in business, when there were cupcakes brought to that event from several other bakeries that day that were way cheaper and better quality. read more

Cupcakes were very stale. Tough, and bland tasting. Making sure your product is fresh is as basic as it gets. Any local grocery store can do better for 1/2 the price, or less. Definitely won't go back. read more

We were looking forward to our first visit. Boy were we disappointed. Service was surly. I felt like I was an inconvenience. Food - didn't taste fresh. Ambiance - none. Not even a place to enjoy a cup of coffee. One of the young ladies who helped me was nice. read more

Simply divine is what they are! Simply Sweets made an awesome cake for my husband's retirement and as we all noticed, "I've never seen so many fighter pilots take a picture of a cake before." It wasn't simple at all but they managed to capture the essence of what I was looking for and replicate a detailed and fierce RedHawk. Not only did the cake look excellent, it was delicious. We went with the vanilla/raspberry cake and the entire cake was devoured (well, except for the hawk, I can't part with him and he's still on the top shelf of fridge peering at me every time I open it). read more

I needed a baby shower cake for July 24th so I reached out to the shop after reading the website that if the event was less then 2 weeks out, I needed to call vs ordering online. When I called the employee told me I needed to go online to request the order. I told her that the website said to call if less then 2 weeks out and she said, no I needed to fill out the form online. I did that and was contacted back via email by Jennifer. I told her that I wanted a 2 tier cake with an almond poppyseed cake with no fruit filling. I also said that I wanted the specific smoothed look with fresh flowers and I attached the shower invite for flower color reference. She sent me back a quote for $200 for a cake with no flower decorations on it. She let me know that I needed to call the shop to place the order. I called and let the employee know that I had an email quote. She looked up the email and proceeded to take my order for the cake. When I confirmed the flavor, I reiterated that we did not want fruit filling (the mommy to be doesn't like fruit filling on her cake which I had put in the email that the quote was based on). She then told me that there would be a 20% increase to remove the fruit filling. I was surprised because I was quoted a different price knowing that we didn't want the fruit filling. She said that Jennifer must have "missed that" in my email. I explained that it is actually cheaper for them to leave the fruit off. She said that the designer told her that they had to increase the price because it is now a "custom cake". I told her I wasn't comfortable paying more because I had an email quote. Finally after she checked with the designer 2 times, they said I didn't have to pay extra. She acted like she was doing me a favor or something. She also said that they did not have the option to put flowers on the cake unless they went out and bought the flowers and they would up charge for that too. I figured I could likely do that cheaper. With all of this said, the cake (though quite plain looking before I added the flowers and cake topper) tasted really good. I do feel like the price was pretty high for the lack of decor on it. My recommendation to future custom cake customers, make sure you are very detailed in what you want when getting your quote and get your quote in writing. My recommendation for the owner, educate the employees that they need to honor the quotes and also update the website on the process. If you are going to have the customer fill out the online form no matter what, remove the 2 week wording on the website as it is confusing. read more
