    We could not have asked for a more delicious and beautiful wedding cake!! We are so thankful and so happy that we went with sweet as love! Natalie is great and fast to respond. I highly recommend. Thanks again for making our day special.

    The most delicious and perfect looking cake! I was so happy with the turn out of this cake that was just briefly discussed over a few emails and a few details . I could tell by her Instagram that she pays attention to details and is extremely creative so I was not worried at all. And not only was the design perfect the cake is so delicious. We had a chocolate cake with a chocolate whipped cream filling. Thank you, Natalie for executing this perfect cake for son

    Our beautiful cake!

    Sweet as Love OC comes to the rescue for my 10 year anniversary! As stated on her page, a party without a cake is just a meeting and this would have been the case for my 10 year anniversary if not for Natalie! She's an incredibly creative, kind and caring business owner who really loves her work. I provided some basic requirements for my cake and her creative vision for what I wanted blew me away. I'm also extremely grateful to her for accommodating me on such short notice. This detail is something I will never forget and think of for years to come. The inside of the cake was her delicious signature funfetti flavor. Natalie, thank you again for this beautiful anniversary treat!

    We found Natalie at Sweet As Love because we were looking for wedding cake flavors beyond the standard (*ahem* boring) options, and Natalie certainly delivered! We ended up going with 2 flavors: blueberry lavender and almond dulce de leche. Natalie was also super willing to try out custom flavors for us, which we really appreciated even though we ended up not picking them! One of the standout qualities was that Natalie uses real fruit in her fruit-flavored fillings, which made the fillings taste so refreshing. I also knew very early on that I wanted to feature a figure of our dog and make it look like our dog had been munching on some of the cake frosting, and Natalie executed this PERFECTLY. We got so many compliments from our guests on the flavors AND on the adorable decoration with our pup. We had so much cake left over from the day (because we majorly over-ordered) that my husband and I ate some practically every day for a few weeks, and we never got tired of it!

    Baby shower cake!

    Natalie is fantastic! We had a little mishap DAYS before my sister-in-law's baby shower which had me franticly looking for a new baker to make my SILs cake. I messaged Natalie in the morning, sent her a photo with a light description of what my SIL liked and within an hour she confirmed that she was able to help us out. The cake was perfectly packaged and ready to go for pick-up Saturday morning! Working with Natalie brought me so much peace. She communicated well, was prompt in replies, and her artistic style and quality cake makes her a super star. This cake looked fabulous, tasted amazing and will be the only person I go to moving forward for special cakes. Thank you, Natalie! I highly recommend :)

    Oogie boogie cake

    I cannot thank Natalie enough for the absolutely incredible Oogie Boogie cake she made for my son! She truly outdid herself. I usually just grab a small cake from the grocery store, but my son had his heart set on a Nightmare Before Christmas theme, for his August birthday, no less! I reached out to Natalie, and she responded within the hour and somehow squeezed us into her schedule. She was communicative, kind, and truly saved the day. The cake itself was not only a showstopper visually! True edible art, but it was also delicious. I honestly don't think I can go back to store-bought cakes after this. The price is 100% worth it. Your kids will light up when they see their cake, and the smiles will say it all. Trust me, you won't regret it!

    We cannot thank Sweet as Love Bakery enough for creating the most stunning (and delicious!) wedding cake we could have imagined. Our 3-tier cake was truly a work of art -- beautifully adorned with cascading fresh roses and delicate details, and topped with such a charming design. It was not only breathtaking to look at, but every bite was absolutely divine. Many of our guests commented on how gorgeous and unique the cake was, and it truly became the centerpiece of the evening. The flavors were just as incredible as the presentation -- moist, flavorful, and perfectly balanced. From the design process to the final presentation, Sweet as Love Bakery was professional, creative, and so easy to work with. They truly brought our vision to life and made it even better than we dreamed. If you're looking for a baker who combines artistry with flavor, look no further -- Sweet as Love Bakery is the one! We will be recommending them to everyone we know.

    OMG! This cake is the craziest cake I've ever seen she made my birthday dreams come true! Scream is my favorite movie and I was absolutely blown away by Natalie's artistry. It went so well and fit the vibe of my Halloween birthday party perfectly! The mask was cake pop and taste SO GOOD my guests were absolutely blown away by the design too. Lol I'm still in shock please buy your custom cakes from her. Also Natalie is so sweet and accommodating and really made sure to help with the transfer to make sure the cake was safe during travel. 20/10 experience!!!!

    Cake

    The cake for my daughter's birthday was magnificent! I asked Natalie for a certain design and she didn't hesitate to say that she would love to make one for me! This was the second custom order that Natalie created for me. I would definitely recommend her services. The birthday cake was not just a masterpiece, but it was also very tasty. The lavender flavored cake and the pink champagne buttercream were simply amazing - perfectly moist and not too sweet. All of our guests couldn't stop raving about how delicious it was. Not only is Natalie incredibly talented, but also so kind and gracious. Thank you so much for the creation that truly took the cake! No pun intended!

    I have some dietary restrictions and Natalie was able to accommodate each one (egg-free and gluten free). The cake was DELICIOUS!! And so perfectly decorated - simple white with pearls and sparkles. We went with chocolate cake and raspberry filling. 10/10 would have it again.

    Natalie was such a wonderful person to work with to create our dream wedding cake! We were wanting a vintage lambeth, tall, and elegant cake and what we received was exactly what we were hoping for. We decided on lavender cake with blackberry filling and we had guests coming up to us saying how delicious it was all night. We had such a great time working with her and are so grateful for our expe

    I feel compelled to add to my previous review and Natalie's response. First of all, I did not state that she admitted to producing sloppy work. That is a misquote. Second, her statement that the actual product may not fully resemble inspired pictures is quite an understatement. To illustrate this, i find it necessary to include a picture of what i requested and was assured I would receive, as well as a picture of her delivered product.

    This is the 6th time we've ordered from Natalie, 9th if you count orders from my family as well. As you can tell, we love Natalie and everything she creates. She goes above and beyond and she's just the best. Once you order from her, you won't order from anyone else! My son loved his Spidey cake and cupcakes for his 5th birthday! It was beautifully made and delicious!!! Thank you, Natalie, for making my son's birthday so special!!!

The space itself is absolutely stunning with lots of seating both inside and outside. The store has a lot of floral decor, which gives it a very clean and spring vibe. The standouts for me here was the banana pudding, Matcha and the array of pastries they had available. We purchased two drinks here, one of which was the banana pudding Matcha and the other was a tiramisu cold brew. The banana pudding Matcha is one of the best drinks I've ever had with a rich high-quality Matcha and fresh creamy banana pudding inside. It's basically two desserts in one, and the flavors complement each other so well. Highly highly recommend - it's viral for a reason. The tiramisu cold brew was also good, although next time I would probably opt for a latte on the bottom since the cold brew is pretty strong. The foam on top was sweet and creamy. The pastries here are absolutely stunning, and I wish I could buy the entire display case. We ended up purchasing a Dubai chocolate croissant and a plain salt bread. The Dubai chocolate croissant was very unique - on the drier side but it definitely had that crunch and flake. I wish they had a little bit more chocolate or buttery elements to balance out the dryness of the cocoa powder. The salt bread was absolutely delicious, very well-made with a chewy texture. I will 100% be back to try everything else that Bag of Cakes has to offer. Highly recommend! We visited on a weekday during the afternoon since it was spring break, and there wasn't a line, but I've heard that lines can get long. There is plenty of parking in the plaza that it's located in. Definitely check this place out!!

    When they first opened, the line was out the door, long, and unbearable (I'm not good with lines),…read moreso I left after seeing how crazy slow it was moving. I returned on a different day, same thing, so I left. Fast forward to May of 2026, I happen to be in the shopping center, so I decided to check it out. No line. The pastry cases looked amazing. There were so many choices; it was really hard to decide. There were several workers, but they seemed pretty uninterested in helping. No pep in the step, no energy, no eagerness to start ANY kind of small talk. This is so crazy. If you're walking into a small bakery that needs your business, why wouldn't they make a little more effort in creating a welcoming atmosphere for people who walk in, ready to dish out the pricey price for your pastries?! It makes no sense to me unless they are being paid very little or not being trained on etiquette and customer service. Just go into any Trader Joe's for reference: their cashier service is very welcoming and kind--and they are a huge grocery chain! It's not just this small bakery, I found worse non-service at the Fountain Valley location of Paderia! That review is next. I hate giving a 2-star review. But, the actual pastries I got were stale, dry, at least a day old, not fresh, FULL-priced pastries. I've gotten better tasting day old/end of day pastries from Too Good to Go, but they were severely discounted! I'm not sure how long they will get away with charging full price for stale pastries. Even my kids said the same thing. I was like is it just me? Incredulously thinking, it can't be, and sure enough, I read the reviews, and someone else said the same thing. I get it's a tough business. It's so sad all around. They should be getting a lot more tax breaks than big corporations do (who pay no taxes and pay to rig the rules), but there are several areas of improvement that could be made that is under their control. Maybe make fewer pastries each day, train your workers, etc. The cream and custard fillings are good, but I'm not going back.

They had so many cake selections, plus pastries and drinks, which definitely makes me want to come back and actually spend more time there. Even though it was super busy, the service was impressively fast and efficient. One employee helped take my order and package everything up, and the cashier rang me up quickly, so the whole process was seamless and perfect when you're on a lunch break. The atmosphere felt very family-friendly, and despite how busy it was, the experience was still smooth. Parking is free, there's a small lot directly in front, but if that fills up, there's additional parking in the connected plaza, which makes it easy. I didn't get to try the cake but brother-in-law and sister said the cake was delicious. If you're in the Fullerton area and looking for a cute dessert spot with lots of options, this is definitely worth checking out!

The evening before my brother's fiancée's birthday, my parents and I visited the store to order a cake for the celebration. We were assisted by an employee named Aiden. From the beginning, he showed little to no customer service--there was no greeting, friendliness, or engagement during the interaction. Despite this, we continued with the order and specifically requested a fresh cake to be picked up the following day at 3:00 PM. The next day, when my mother and brother went to pick up the cake, my mother noticed that the display cake that had been in the case the previous evening was no longer there. She asked Aiden if the cake he gave them was the display cake. Instead of responding, he simply stared at her and did not answer the question. My brother also noticed the lack of basic customer service and found the interaction very strange and unprofessional. Later that day, we brought the cake home and served it during the celebration. As soon as we cut into it, everyone noticed the cake was very different and tasted horrible. It tasted stale and dry. The strawberries were very mushy and smelled spoiled. None of us finished our cake slices and still have a large portion remaining. The following day, I called the store to explain the situation. A female employee answered the phone and told me she was busy with customers but would call me back shortly to sort out the issue. About 30 minutes later, I received a call back, and it was Aiden again. I explained everything that happened, but once again he showed no concern, empathy, or professionalism. When I asked about my mother's question regarding whether the cake was the display cake, he claimed he "didn't hear" her question. He did not apologize for the experience and simply offered a free slice of cake as compensation. My family and I have purchased cakes from this location several times before and have always enjoyed both the quality of the cakes and the customer service. In fact, my family has owned restaurants and businesses ourselves, so we understand very well how important customer service and quality are in the hospitality industry. This is not the way customers should be treated, which is why this experience was so disappointing to us. This is the first time we have ever had to complain. We were very surprised that a cake we specifically requested to be fresh tasted bad and have been displayed for days. Aiden also mentioned that cakes and pastries can remain out for up to two days, which was concerning given the quality we experienced. We truly loved this location and had always enjoyed coming here in the past. Unfortunately, what could have been a small issue turned into a very negative experience due to the lack of professionalism, communication, and customer care from the manager on duty. Because of this experience, my family and I will no longer be returning to this location in the future. I hope this issue can be addressed so other customers do not experience the same situation.
