2 Ube Coconut, 2 Abuelita, 1 Confetti and 1 Pink Oreo
Nicole M.

I finally got the chance to try this place and was not disappointed. I got there right before closing and the cashier didn't try to rush me out of the door. She took her time to provide information about each cupcake. I bought a half dozen cupcakes: 2 Abuelita, 2 Ube Coconut, 1 Confetti and 1 Pink Oreo. I loved them all honestly. They were all so fresh and airy. Each bite had the perfect cupcake to frosting ratio too. I will definitely be back.

This is what she delivered.  Does it look like pink to you?

NEVER, EVER WILL I USE THIS COMPANY AGAIN. NOR WILL I RECOMMEND THEM. Over two weeks prior to my son and daughter-in-laws baby girl shower, I went into the store and placed a cookie order with Missy for 5 dozen sugar cookies. Payment was made right then for half the amount plus an extra $25 to have them individually wrapped. We agreed the balance would be paid when picked up the day prior to the shower on Saturday April 12th between 12:00 and 1:00. When I got home later that day, as a follow-up to the in store order and as per her request, I emailed her a picture from HER website of the cookies I wanted and stated in the email that the colors she used on them is what I was looking for because they were PINK. However, when I walked in to pick up my order, on time, around 12:30 on 4/12, I was greeted by Missy's daughter who knew nothing of my order. I could tell immediately by the look on her face something was wrong. When she couldn't find it, she called her Mom on the phone. Missy asked that I once again provide my telephone number as she would try to locate my Torder. Within about half an hour I got a text from Missy who said: "She found my information. Somehow had misplaced the order sheet. She did apologize. Said no excuses. They will work around the clock to make sure the order gets done. She wasn't gonna charge me the balance I owed and would deliver the next day at the park in Buellton by 10 am". I responded by telling her how saddened and disappointed I was that the order was not ready while also conveying my concerns on shortcuts on the order due to lack of time. Included in the text I also reiterated what the cookie order was to be which specified PINK in color on the four designs she was gonna do and again included the picture of cookies from her website. She responded by telling me "they would be beautiful and absolutely up to their standards per usual". Sunday comes around. Missy arrives with the box of cookies and again SHEER DISAPPOINTMENT. I immediately see that the color of the frosting used is NOT PINK but more of a SALMON color. She said the picture looked that color. But I ask myself did she not read the email order or the written order she wrote up from two weeks prior or the text message sent just after she found the order where I indicated multiple times PINK. Her comment when I commented on the color was "I guess there is no satisfying you". She gave no apology for being the wrong color but instead wrote it off by saying "human error and people make mistakes" as she is saying it in a very condescending and lackadaisical attitude. As a customer, I understand mistakes. But as a business owner, she needs to understand if she hasn't fulfilled what the customer has ordered and paid for, she is gonna have an UNSATISFIED CUSTOMER. You would think after the order was screwed up on Saturday that every effort would have been made to make this order perfect and as ordered. But more importantly the customer should not be disrespected or made to feel by the owner of the business like they are inconveniencing them. Bad way to run a business!

Hello Sugar!

Prior to visiting the Wine Ghetto in Lompoc for some wine tasting, I recalled that there was a cupcake shop I had seen before on Yelp. After all, what goes better with wine than cupcakes?! It just happened to be only 5 minutes away, so we drove on over. I passed it up three times due to it being somewhat hidden in an 'L-shaped' commercial building (P/S: The Yelp location pin has since been updated to help others not have as much trouble finding it). They did have a stand-up sign outside near the parking lot which does help make the shop more visible. While it is small, they have delicious looking cupcakes with rotating flavors. You can purchase a single cupcake, 4, 6 or a 12-pack. Since we are indecisive, we went with both a 4 and a 6 pack with one of every flavor. I adored that some of them are very unique flavors such as Strawberry Mallow and Ube Coconut. I normally despise coconut but the flavor of the cake and frosting in the Ube Coconut blew me away! The cake was super moist, similar to what they offer at Sprinkles. For those who are vegan, they always have a vegan option--this time around it was Vegan Chocolate Chip. I also loved that the daughter was the one at the counter in front of a wall that read "Hello Sugar!" The mom who happened to be the owner popped her head out to briefly say "hello." I was even happier to have supported a local, women-owned (and Latina owned) business.

Everything here is so gas!!!! I love coming here the owner and her daughter are always so sweet. This place is definitely a vibe.

My first visit to Sweet Baking Company Much to my dismay, The bakery's interior presentation and baked good selection was very minimal. It is possible I am comparing this small bakery tucked away in a small section of town to my experiences at other locations The staff however were pleasant and helpful The cost per cupcake ($2.50) was overly priced for its simple taste and presentation.

Service at rude baking co
Linda L.

I wish i could give it a zero rating service is horrible the girls there are so rude and have horrible customer service. I went there and they literally give you a dumb look and when you ask them the flavors they get upset. So rude and they made me uncomfortable just staring at me and rolling their eyes. Save your money and go to Albertsons or something this place is wack. Horrible customer service they treat you like they hate their life and jobs. If you can't work in customer service or attend your STORE in a nice respectful way them dont open it or dont have a small business ladys. It was the girl with black hair in a ponytail she is tall and skinny. Never will i waste my money here . I cant support a small business if they treat me like trash sorry.

See all

Everything you want in a coffee shop without the ridiculous pricing. Coffees and desserts are great. Pooh bear approved.

First, let me start with the fact, I am not a sweet's kind of person. Some people will go out of…read moretheir way for cake, cookies, and especially cupcakes. That's just not me. So, when faced with what I often feel is something that is too sweet I was a bit apprehensive. My wife had already had some of these cupcakes and she was trying hard for me to try them, especially since she knew I was not a fan. You have the back story. The rest of the story, I without hesitation would 1000% recommend Sweet Mimi's cupcakes to anyone. And I mean anyone. I have had Carmel Apple pie, lemon flavored, fireball flavored, Oreo, orange cream, Gluten Free chocolate with almond, blueberry and raspberry lemonade, red velvet, and some vanilla flavored. I loved them all. All of them are well decorated, great pricing, willing to accommodate dietary needs. Are you kidding a Gluten Free cupcake!! And it tasted great, and had I not been told after I ate it, I would have never known. The cupcake itself, is always moist, and I know this as I have had them three days after being fresh, and they are still good. Not over cooked, and therefore hard. If I had the money, I would bankroll this whole operation myself!! Support local, support special, and most of all, support the best cupcake maker I, and everyone else who has tried them as the best cupcakes around!!

Wow! I thought this placed would be a good option. Mainly because of their instagram post since…read moremost cakes look truly nice, however, I would not recommend to anyone. Truly unprofessional. No sure who there made my friend's cake, but whoever made it was new because they have no baking skills. We were goi for a red cake, there were multiple emails back and forth to make sure it was correct. We went to pick the cake, and we got a brown one with a green picture. Never again. I can even be mad. Literally made me laugh for the trashy job they did. If I could give them a 0/5, believe I would.

Update: Attached is a screenshot confirming that your team wanted to complete the order in your…read morestore - which I gladly did. At the store, I shared the date for pick up and details accordingly and your team inaccurately took the wrong notes. In addition, I paid in full that day after you took my orders. What I was hoping for was some accountability on your half for the wrong order and the wrong pick up date. Your team has made zero effort to make anything right. This was not worth the almost $200 cost that we paid. The cake was dry and old. The cupcake sizes were wrong as i explained this was very important we ordered the mini cupcakes because the kids can't eat the full size cupcakes. You baked my entire order for the wrong date so we had stale cake (old strawberries pictured on our cake). I even shared at pick up that I didn't care that I paid for full size cupcakes, just please switch them out for the mini cupcakes you had readily available in your display case - and you shared that per your policy you couldn't and that I needed to take the order as-is or pay more for any additional cupcakes. What's the point of completing the order in store if your team will note down the wrong order and the wrong pick up date? Your entire response to my review lacks accountability and more importantly, your response is inaccurate because I paid in-store per your request before I had a chance to review anything over email. Santa Barbara is a small community and I hope other customers see that this is NOT how you treat people, let alone a customer when you're clearly in the wrong. I've not once asked for a refund (nor did you ever offer one), but I am asking you consider taking some accountability for your actions.
