Today was is my birthday, and my mom got me a cake from this awesome baker. The cake was gorgeous. But what is the most important to us, is the taste of the cake. This was vanilla with lemon cream inside. This cake was DELICIOUS. The cake was soft and the lemon was fresh. The butter cream was so yummy and not too sweet. read more

I was recently hoping to find someone local who did custom cupcakes or cookies for my boyfriends 30th birthday. I stumbled across Sugar Faced through Yelp and I am so happy I did! Cherilyn does an amazing job and it so easy to work with. One thing that I found to be great was the flavor selection offered (pandan, ube, guava, horchata, etc). I ordered a dozen custom ube flavored golf-themed cupcakes and they were amazing. The cupcakes were so moist and rich -- everyone complimented the flavor. She offers delivery services, but as I live close by, I was able to pick up and it was super easy. Overall, I'd reach out to Cherilyn for future events. She's amazing! read more

Best food and service and the desserts are heavenly! They have such a variety of desserts and cakes!

Cherilyn was such a great find via yelp. She was easy to work with, affordable, and did an amazing job on creating my daughter's 3 tiered Little mermaid themed birthday cake. What really sold me initially was the free local delivery! She offers many unique flavors. Sadly, I only got to try the rocky road since the other flavors got eaten up so quickly! The cake was super moist and it was fun to have marshmallows in the cake :) I highly recommend Cherilyn. Thank you for making Zoe's birthday extra special. read more

This is my 3rd time ordering a cake from Cherilyn. She is so artistic, creative, and professional and much more. Her cakes are delicious. Her cake pops too and the Sylvanas. I always order my bakery good from her. read more

Cherilyn is the best! I was planning a baby shark theme party for my son's first birthday and boy was it hard. There is absolutely hardly any decorations for this theme because it is not very popular. But my son loves it so what can I do. I found Cherilyn and she hit it home with the cake and dessert table. Her package includes a backdrop and all the little details she placed on the table made it extra special. I was amazed. She was responsive, courteous, and had great follow up. I must admit I was a little nervous of the outcome but when I lay eyes on that cake I was absolutely blown away. Thank you Cherilyn for making my son's birthday so special and memorable. read more

Cherilyn is amazing! Professional, detailed, and most of all TALENTED!! Cherilyn provided a dessert table at our wedding and it turned out beautiful! I received so many compliments regarding the desserts. The presentation, and most importantly, the taste was very pleasing! Cherilyn was SO EASY to work with. I, on the other hand, am very indecisive, dont know much about desserts, and had so many questions. She gave me a worry free experience and helped me every step of the way! I will never search again if I ever needed desserts for a party! Thank you so much for everything! read more

I found this place via a LivingSocial deal. I ordered cake pops for a Tuesday lunch event. I requested that this place delivery my cakepops to me Monday night at 7. On Sunday, IAST left me a voicemail telling me that they would be by my house to delivery the cakepops that night. Now remember, I wont even need the cake pops until Tuesday afternoon. This was not ok with me because I was worried about freshness. Also, I wasn't even in town to receive the order. I dont know how the communication was twisted because I know I specifically requested delivery on Monday because I KNEW I wouldn't be home on Sunday. Anyway, she kept insisting that I requested Sunday (which I didn't) but then agreed to deliver on Monday night. I asked if I would be getting the cakepops that she made on Sunday morning (that she initially planned to delivery that night) or would i be getting freshly made ones. I was getting the old ones. This was annoying and I didn't want to serve 3 day old cakepops. I communicated this to her. She then sends me this super long email explaining that cakepops were good for 10 days and this is what starbucks does blahblahblahblah. Well I didn't want what starbucks does and I do not want old ass cakepops. So you guys....please be careful when you order from this place. You might want to ask about freshness. After MUCH attitude from IAST, what ended up happening was that she supposedly made me fresh cakepops and delivered them on Monday night. Which I initially appreciated BUT it was A HUGE AND COMPLETE FAIL because she packed the cakepops in a small gift bag UPSIDE DOWN. Most of them were crushed. I did not serve these and just threw them away. They looked horrendous. So another thing you might want to ask about is how she packs and delivers your cakepops. Good luck. read more

Desserts not only look amazing but tastes just as magnificent, if not better. Great customer service, prompt, responsive. You tell her what you want and when she works her magic you will not be disappointed. She will turn your ideas into creative edible masterpieces! I've ordered her cakes and dessert tables and never had a complaint! Highly recommend! read more

I bought a livingsocial deal for 2 dozen mini cupcakes. I bought the deal in early July and confirmed my date and address with her shortly after for a late August delivery date. 1. Delivery - The deal came with free delivery in Fremont, but 1.5 weeks before, she emailed me and said that she looked up my address and it was "too far" in Fremont for her to deliver. Since it was too close to my date to make any changes or find some other vendor, I ended up paying extra for delivery. I believe that if the deal is for "Free delivery to Fremont", that should have been honored. I understand Fremont covers a lot of ground but don't put that into the deal if you are not willing to go to every part of Fremont. I felt I was taken for a loop, especially so close to my event date. 2. Taste - The cupcakes were very cute and tasted good. They were decorated very nicely. The cake can be a little more moist but it was decent. Overall, I liked their cupcakes and prices. The communication was prompt (1-2 days per email exchange). I would hesitate to order again due to the last minute price adjustment, but if I was picking them up, I'd probably do that instead. read more

I ordered from its a sweet thing a few times and every time is always a success! Every custom cake or cupcake has tasted and looked amazing. The prices are great. I have nothing negative to say. I've ordered a Cal Berkeley graduation cake, pink dolphin cupcakes, a winter wonderland cake, LA lakers cupcakes & cake pops, a Winnie the pooh themed cake & cupcakes, and a Hennessy cake and I have never been disappointed. I will always order my cakes and cupcakes from its a sweet thing and refer them to ALL my friends and family. read more

I tried a guava cupcake at a birthday party over the weekend and wasn't impressed at all. The cupcakes were dry and it wasn't like the cupcakes were sitting out for long either. I grabbed one right when it was taken out of the box. I was only able to eat half and if anyone knows me, I can have 2-3 cupcakes in one sitting. These weren't one of them. I did, however, like that the frosting was light and not too sweet. I bought a Living Social deal to try their cupcakes prior to the weekend. I'm hoping my batch doesn't come out dry like these were. We shall see and I will update my review. read more

Awesome choice for your custom cake needs. I was at a party where I got to eat Cherilyn's cakes. They were delicious! I am so glad she was available to make a sheet cake for my daughter's grad party. I sent a pic of what I wanted and Cherilyn matched it perfectly. The best part is the cake was delicious. The order process was effortless. Delivery was prompt, too. Cherilyn was quick to reply and a pleasure. I will call her for my future baking goods. Thanks Cherilyn! read more

Cherilyn is truly amazing! She is so talented and pays close attention to detail, which was needed for my son's Minion cake (those Minions look so weird if you aren't careful with the details). Not only was the decorations super cute but the cake flavors were delicious. Everyone couldn't stop talking about how tasty the cake was. Plus, I appreciate she doesn't gauge you with the price. She is very reasonable and fair. read more

So glad I found Cherilyn! She was easy to work with, communication was perfect, and she delivered on time. Her prices are reasonable and you can tell she puts in the extra effort to make sure you are happy with your purchase. I bought a dessert table for a surprise wedding shower for my employee and Cheryl's dessert table was a hit! She made a two tiered white cake with strawberry and cream filling, chocolate covered Oreos, red velvet cupcakes, chocolate covered strawberries, chocolate covered pretzels, salted caramel brownies, and Oreo cake pops. The couple we were celebrating loved all the custom decorations she made so much, they plan on using it for their wedding decor. People at the work party wanted her contact info! I'll plan on hiring her again for my baby's birthday party. read more

I wrote a previous review which got deleted somehow about my experience about the 2 dozen mini ferrero rocher cupcakes I ordered for the 4th of July. 1. Communication- I had okay communication with Cherilyn. 2. Timing-The timing was great and she was able to adjust her 3 day notice to 2.5 days. 3. Taste- The cupcakes were okay, they just tasted like chocolate cupcakes with a slight mocha flavored icing that was quite light, like a whipped cream. All in all I had an okay experience. read more

I ordered 6 dozen macarons for my sister's party and I can't wait to order more :) These macs were fresh and flavorful. Cherilyn was so great to work with and i'm so happy to have her in my life for my future mac needs. read more

i bought a livingsocial deal for 2 dozen cakepops and redeemed it this weekend. cakepops are not really my thing (too rich), but they're a fun/cool giveaways for parties. i ordered two dozen in two flavors -- chocolate on chocolate and red velvet. except for the being-too-rich thing (i don't blame It's a Sweet Thing for that, i know the recipe calls for lotsa butter and/or frosting to act as a binder to keep the "pop" shape), the pops were pretty good. they tasted like they were made from scratch, not that artificially-out-of-the-box taste. each pop was beautifully and individually wrapped and decorated with a cute ribbon... again, a pretty cute party favor. my only complaint was that the two flavors looked exactly alike -- white shell with multi-color sugar sprinkles. i thought they misunderstood my order and made me 2 doz red velvet, until i bit into one that was actually dark chocolate in the inside (delicious, by the way... much better than the red velvet!). i wish the chocolate on chocolate actually had a dark chocolate shell. but oh well. the folks were a breeze to work with. most of the transaction was done via email with one phone call to confirm pickup. they deliver, but i ended up picking up since they were on my way to my party. looking forward to redeeming my other voucher and trying out their cupcakes! read more

I met with Cherilyn for both my kids joined birthday party and am so glad that I did! We did a rainbow theme party so I had her do a rainbow theme dessert table and loved it! She made me two rainbow birthday cakes, chocolate covered pretzels with sprinkles, mini cupcakes, big cupcakes, cake pops and chocolate covered oreos and let me say yummy! It was the biggest hit of the party...everybody loved everything, but especially the cake pops and oreo's. It was the first time I had used Its a Sweet Thing and I'm so glad that I did. The table was so cute...she provided the tablecloth, dishes the desserts were on, the printables, everything and did an amazing job. Since we had rainbow colors she did 6 different colors on the cake pops & each were different flavors, yet all perfectly delicious. I had 60-70 people and lets just say we had no desserts left because everyone was asking to take home desserts! I couldn't have asked for better & will definitely be using her for all our baking needs/events. Thank you so much Cherilyn! Loved it! read more
