My household and I are big fans of SusieCakes! I've gotten their Old-Fashioned Chocolate Cake for a birthday before and absolutely loved it. The store is always clean, and the employees are great! More recently, I've been taking advantage of their Too Good To Go offers, and I've been really happy with everything I've gotten. The first time, I received two cake slices (marble and red velvet) along with four cupcakes. This time, I got four dog shaped frosted sugar cookies and six cupcakes. The sugar cookies were a huge hit with us, they were super soft and yummy. The cupcakes never disappoint either, they were soft, sweet, and definitely not dry or hard. read more

Susie Cakes is a delight from the moment you enter. The creations on display are beautiful and look oh-so-appetizing, and service is excellent. On our most recent visit we purchased a strawberry whip cake, one of their summer only specials, which sells for $69 at this location. It was like eating a bit of heaven. Light, moist, with enough fresh strawberries in the filling to easily justify its name. Needless to say, we'll be back. read more

We ordered a mini Red Velvet and a Chocolate cupcake, priced at about $2.75 each. This bakery is located at One Paseo, and parking was a breeze. You can park on the street or in the parking garage at One Paseo, near SusieCakes. read more

Susie cakes always hits the spot. Love their cupcakes of course and their blueberry lemon cake is also divine. Something about their red velvet is extra decadent. I recommend the mini cupcakes so you can try more flavors. What I like most about SusieCakes is how homemade and consistent the cakes come out. Great clean location that is super convenient. They always seem to have stock and the workers are friendly. read more

Love how simple it is inside. It's a small space but very bright and clean. The service was great from the time I walked in to when I walked out. I like how they have mini sizes. It's just perfect if you're craving something sweet. I got the strawberry cupcake, it was a bit on the dry side. But I also got the chocolate vanilla cupcake and they were delicious. Super moist and not too sweet. Thank you Susiecakes - Del Mar for your hospitality. read more

We stopped in after a trip to the beach for some cupcakes for my daughter's birthday. They had all kinds and cakes as well. We went with the seasonal pineapple upside down cake and red velvet. The cupcakes were so delicious. Moist flavorful and delicious. This was one of our favorite stops on our vacation. read more

This is one of my favorite dessert places! Please note that I have a super sweet tooth and this reallllly is where it's at if that's your jam. Getting mini or regular cupcakes from this place is always a solid choice for any event or to take to work. They also have small cakes, half cakes, full cakes and tiered! Their regular/celebration cake is a play off of funfetti and it is absolutely perfect. Sometimes I wish there was a bit less frosting but honestly having a bit more of anything is never a problem! For peanut lovers I recommend the Susie's nutty! It's two peanut butter cookies with peanut whip inbetween. With milk this is heavenly! Other goodies include: snickerdoodle cookies, regular cookies, red velvet cake, and a specialty cake that varies. The service here is always top notch! This location has a lot that is right next to it that is convenient. If you are just picking up there is a 30 minute pickup zone as well which I recommend (directly off of Del Mar heights). read more

The cupcakes are delicious but the service is unpredictable. On more than one occasion I have requested a vanilla cupcake with milk chocolate frosting and the guy working responded with "I would not recommend that, it's too sweet" well... I don't care, I want what I want. Tonight I went in and requested the same thing and he asked me three times what I was asking for, I can assure you I was speaking clearly. My friend was with me and she asked for a recommendation between the two peanut butter cookies and he said that he doesn't like either. I'm not sure why he specifically is so cold but it sours the experience. read more

Really well made cakes with quality ingredients. Well balanced and not too sweet as well. Customer service is on par and efficient even with an extremely busy weekend read more

Nice location and love the colorful storefront and interior. Was in the area and decided to walk in and take a gander. I got a chocolate chip cookie (was good but wouldn't say the best I had ever had). It was light but felt like it didn't have as many chocolate chips as I would have liked. I also got a slice of their cranberry orange cake. This was very good, moist cake with a tarte interior and a light and sweet frosting. Was the perfect holiday combination. Staff was helpful and we were in and out with our goodies fairly quickly. Next time I am in the area I will for sure be picking up another slice of one of their yummy cakes! read more

My friends and I stopped by here for a quick dessert after a day of shopping around. It's a cute and cozy little cake shop! We tried the mini red velvet cupcakes and the chocolate cupcake. It was delicious and moist! The sweetness level was perfect, and I definitely enjoyed it! My friend accidentally dropped her cupcake while taking a picture, and the staff replaced it at no additional cost! She was super nice! I would definitely come back again and try their other desserts. read more

Good to see Susiecakes at one Paseo. After a delicious lunch or dinner it's a treat to have dessert from here. Greeted by a great team behind the counter. Immediately, the carrot cake caught our eye. Unfortunately, the carrot cake only comes as a slice not available as a cupcake. We bought a slice and some other cupcakes. Chocolate Guinness was delish! Tasting the beer :) Coconut and lemon were tied for 2nd. Strawberry cupcake's frosting had an oily consistency compared to the other cupcakes and didn't have a strong enough strawberry flavor. Besides the chocolate the other cupcake's cake seemed a bit dense. Holds up well without the need of a fork. The carrot cake is A+! One of my favorites of all time. Cute retro branding :) read more

Adorable cupcakes! I had birthday cupcakes with in vanilla (pink icing) and chocolate. Rarely would I declare the chocolate to be the better, but it in this case it was. I loved the chocolate cupcake!! The vanilla one is too sweet/sugary. I knew this and still bought it because these are just too cute. This bakery is aesthetically pleasing, bright, decorated in pastels, and creates beautiful cakes. A nice thing is they are open late! :) read more

Delicious cakes! I've loved everything I've tried but my favorites are the vanilla celebration cake and tropical coconut cake. Their seasonal raspberry vanilla cake is outstanding as well. You can buy them by the slice (around $7) as well as in whole cakes. The cupcakes often have different cake types than the whole cakes (such as no sprinkles in the vanilla) so I prefer slices. They have cookies, other desserts, and gluten free offerings as well. They also offer vintage style frosting and heart shaped cakes for trendier options (albeit a bit expensive). You can walk in and see a good variety or order ahead. They're also on the Too Good to Go app if you want to try a random selection of end-of-day treats for a lower price. read more

What can I say, Susie Cakes sets the bar high when it comes to cakes. This is my go to spot and all their cakes are delicious. I usually get the celebration cake for birthdays and is always a crowd favorite with its vibrant blue frosting. Also, if you're not in the mood for cake they have plenty of other dessert i.e. cookies and cupcakes. Last, the bakery is very welcoming with friendly a staff. read more

Coconut cake very tasty. Got a slice and I'm enjoying it. They're very nice here and also have Christmas and Hanukkah cookies.

This is a dense cake! I would recommend this cake/SusieCakes if you order your cakes to have buttercream frosting. Upon opening box, I was met immediately with butter. Service is friendly here and it's more of a grab and go. There is no seating inside so expect to get cakes and cookies and enjoy them elsewhere. read more

I've come here twice for a sweet treat. I got a cake slice the first time and cupcakes and a cake slice the second time. The cake/cupcakes are moist and the icing is light and fluffy. They have a good variety of flavors to choose from. The staff were friendly. I will come back! read more

I was in there today around 4:25 p.m. because I had seen their seasonal raspberry vanilla cupcake online that morning and wanted to try it. Between me checking out the menu and actually arriving at the shop, I had series of really bad things happen to me related to some really heavy things I have going on in my life right now. I unfortunately didn't get her name, but the woman who helped me was SO kind and completely turned my whole day around. I was so touched that I ugly cried. You, Susiecakes, have my goodwill forever. Thank you, woman who helped me, for your incredible kindness. It meant so, so much to me. Truly. The cupcake was great too. read more

Just tried the 6 layer chocolate cake. It truly was chocolate bliss with 6 layers of moist, delightful chocolate y goodness. Some might consider it overly frosted with a very thick layer on the outside, but it was fantastic! My first time at the store but will definitely try some of the other cakes.... read more

They are always so nice to us here. We've come near closing time usually and they gave us samples and got us hooked on the old fashioned chocolate cake. Today I was telling them that my son lost his playoffs game so I was here to cheer him up and buy him his favorite cake slice and they gave me a box of cookies and wrote good luck for his game Monday! We love the chocolate and marble cakes and my son requested it for his birthday this year and now my oldest wants it for her birthday too read more

This is an updated review as of August 23, 2024. Shoutout to the amazing staff for helping me with an online order, had some issues trying to pre-order with the app earlier today but the staff was amazing as always. Shoutout to Kate for calling me back to let me know on one of the seasonal cake and had to pick another one but they were super accommodating. Of course I had to order the LEMON CAKE SLICES and this time I'm taking them to NYC so ma man can taste it! The wonderful staff was awesome upon my request for pre-order since I'm taking the slices on flight, they place in the instruction to saran wrapped it and ya'll, I can't wait to pick it up. (Well my bestie is going to pick it up) and taste that lemon cake again, I've been dreaming about it. Don't worry, their lemon cake is a definitely going to be in my future wedding, just gotta have him taste it first. read more

We were walking around One Paseo, and one of the shops I wanted to check out was Susiecakes! I've been to their LA location, but it's been any years since then and my first time at one of their locations south of LA. First of all, I wish more bakeries had the high-quality customer service that this shop has! The employees not only were welcoming and knowledgeable, but truly seemed like they enjoyed working there and interacting with the customers. Their positive attitudes and professionalism, in addition to the cute, simple interior design of the shop, transports you back to feeling like a child at a candy store. As for the cakes ordered, I went with trying a slice of funfetti (the girl who helped us was kind enough to honor my bday freebie despite it being expired by a couple weeks ... shout out to this employer! I only wish I got her name!) and a slice of the tropical coconut. Both were massive and fairly priced for about $8/each. If you love traditional American buttercream, you'll love the funfetti. For me, however, it was on the sweet side and a little grainy. I ended up remedying this but adding some whipped cream and berries on it once we got back home. As for the tropical coconut, the cake was packed with coconut and pineapple. Again, the frosting was super sweet, but with a little whipped cream on top, viola! All in all, exceptional customer service, super cute shop, good prices, just may have not found the right cake for me. Will look forward to visiting again when back in San Diego. read more

This is hands-down, the best carrot cake I've ever had slices are huge, but the price reflects that about eight dollars a slice. Their cream cheese frosting is by far my favorite part about it but if you love carrot cake definitely definitely gotta try it. It's got huge chunks of carrot in there walnuts and just everything just goes so well together. I've also tried their coconut, pineapple cake, another fantastic choice and then their seasonal cookies during Halloween. I had their pumpkin cream pie. It was so good cause they used the same cream cheese frosting that they use on their carrot cake. Go get a slice now! read more

Susie Cakes celebrated her Golden Birthday on July 15 2023 and I went to join the celebration which featured a buy one get one free cupcake deal. Vanilla cupcake had a light pink frosting which was incredibly sweet like it was made of pure sugar.  Loved the vanilla flavored cake portion which was fluffy with a sweet vanilla flavor. Strawberry lemonade cupcake had very sweet frosting which tasted a bit like pineapple to me.  Loved the flavor of the cake part which started with vanilla cake and had strawberry pieces embedded in it. Strawberry cupcake had a vanilla flavored cake base with sweet strawberry frosting. Sugar cookies had a bit of crunch on the outside while the inside was soft.  Nice sweet flavor.  Reminds me of Corner Bakery's version only fresher.  Very tasty. Molasses cookie was soft and had a fresh molasses aroma.  Very tasty. Chocolate chip cookie was soft and full of chocolate flavor.  One of my favorite cookies. Summer berry cake was moist and fluffy.  Center was filled with sweet strawberry pieces.  Loved the mix of flavors from the yellow cake, strawberries, and the whipped cream frosting. Orange cranberry cake was soft and moist.  Loved the flavor of the cranberries and the texture of the berry piece which complimented the orange flavor.  Delicious. Susie Cakes has awesome cookies and moist flavorful cakes.  The cupcakes were very good but I don't like the frosting.  Happy Golden Birthday Susie Cakes! read more
