I used to live in Lompoc & have tried Sweet Baking Company's cupcakes before. I came to visit and through social media, I saw that they started selling coffee and Matcha drinks, so I decided to go check it out. Unfortunately the drinks were very underwhelming. I tried a strawberry matcha which tasted completely artificial and was way too sweet. The coffee I got tasted like any basic homemade coffee. Although the drinks were not good & over hyped, the cupcakes were fantastic!

We LOVE THIS PLACE!!! The best for last minute ideas for treats for any occasion! So many selections to choose from too! Really really great drinks. The friendliest servers that like to know what ur treats r for! A cute little shop (I have a good feeling they will be expanding) but perfect space for what they need now. Smells delicious too! Top notch cupcakes for any occasion!!! Must go, plus u can just get a little drink and treat for urself not just for parties!

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.

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.

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!

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.

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!!

To say this is the best cake I have ever eaten is an understatement. A little backstory here…read more.. Last year, 4 of my friends and my 3 (cheapo) sons got together for my birthday and my friends told me all about Brandi at Jensen's Custom Cakery... and her "wonderful cakes." The way they described them was more of an experience than anything else... with intense flavors and wonderful textures... everything fresh and made to order... So I got all excited and then they went and got me a !*YTST cake from some other local (and well-known) bakery that turned out to be a flat suger bomb...bleh... all because they didn't get an order placed in time with Brandi... (that's a hint, order early as she gets booked up) - Anyway, I was pretty darn upset to say the least because - hey, life is too short to not eat great cake and now that I'm yelping - stand back! Oh well, they did get me some nice presents, and good wine, but still... there is no comparison... So this year, just to be sure, for my wine country birthday party, I went ahead and ordered my own darn cake - well in advance... (my friends can just bring me wine from now on - pay attention Lorraine :))! So I ordered what's called a Double Lemon Coconut and I gotta tell you it really was an absolutely amazing cake - and Brandi even delivered it to our weekend rental on the other side if the valley. So this 2 layer dream cake was so good that the first thing I did was hide away a piece from my hungry friends and family... and a good thing I did because they ate the whole thing... all of it! I have never seen a cake disappear so fast in all my years and birthday parties... but on this one, you can really taste the fresh coconut, the intense lemon, the cream... the tart in the lemon curd... (even her curd is fresh hand-made just for the specific cake - I know, I tried to buy more of it) and the bite assembly is nothing short of gourmet... You can really tell a lot of time was spent perfecting these flavors... and all I can say is WOW and now I'm really excited for my next birthday (but so sad right now because I am out of cake), I even ate my backup piece :(... Next time I'm going to order a carrot cake that my friend Nancy told me about last week and described as "cosmic and out of this world..." since I am a carrot cake junkie, I can't wait... I'll let you know how that one goes along with some pics when I figure out how to get them off my new phone... onto the Yelp machine.... until then, if you want a memorable cake and the absolute best you can get your mouth on, check out her site or give her a call... tell her Maggie sent ya!

We have been lucky to have had several different cakes made by Brandi.These are not your average…read morebakery cakes. All are absolutely delicious. She clearly spend lots of time and energy to make them special with the best ingredients she can find. I must say that the German chocolate cake is so good that I want to dive into it! It is amazing! This is a special treat for your guests.I would not hesitate to recommend her for your dessert needs.

Ali at Sugar Lab Bake Shop was such a wonderful part of my daughter's wedding yesterday. From the…read morevery beginning, she was warm, kind, and genuinely lovely to work with -- exactly the kind of person you hope to have around during such an important event. She created the most beautiful three-tier cake for us with delicate pearl details and softly textured rustic tiers that fit the wedding perfectly. It looked stunning, but what everyone kept talking about was how good it tasted. We chose different flavor combinations for each tier, and every single one was incredibly moist, flavorful, and delicious. For anyone debating between a cake and a dessert table, Ali does both beautifully -- but there's something so special about having a gorgeous cake as part of the celebration. Ours became such a focal point of the reception, and the cake cutting ended up being one of the sweetest, most heartfelt moments of the evening. I'm so glad we chose to include one. Ali also handled delivery and placement flawlessly, which made the whole process feel easy and stress-free. We couldn't have been happier with our choice and are so grateful for the care and talent she brought to the day.

Their wedding cake tasting package yielded a fun and tasty date night and gave us confidence in our choice to rely on them. Our guests adored the lemon bars and brownies and loved the variety we had in our three tier cake: top tier was red velvet cake with vanilla cream cheese filling, middle tier was a champagne cake with strawberry buttercream filling, and our favorite, the bottom tier, was a banana cake with banana brown sugar filling. They were communicative and clear with pricing and I couldn't be happier with their timeliness and the love they put into their goods. My husband and I highly recommend Sugar Lab Bake Shop and dream of their desserts. We can't wait for our anniversary cake!
