The cakes are incredible -- perfect for all special occasions. We come here frequently for lunch. The sandwiches are wonderful -- especially the Cuban and Tripleta sandwiches. All the pastries are excellent. The mallorcas remind me of my childhood visiting PR during the summer. Highly recommend! read more

I have been longing for a Napoleon pastry and typed in 'Napoleon near me' and discovered this wonderful bakery. Bakery owner called them by a different name, but it is the same wonderful French pastry, so hard to find. She said give her 5 minutes and she will have it ready for me. I bought all that she had at a great price. She then dazzled me with her photographs of cheesecakes. I ordered a pistachio smothered in Dubai chocolate for a family dinner, it is absolutely beautiful to look at. read more

This is primarily a custom cake business, but I stopped in hoping they had something I could take to a friend's house for dessert. English is not their primary language but the lady was able to show me pictures of pastries and flavors. I thought I was ordering a total of 8 items, but my "4 of each" turned into a lovely assortment of 16 items. It worked out as I was attending a meeting after dinner so there was plenty to share. The pastries were beautiful (I'm sorry I didn't get a picture), and delicious. They were quite a hit both with my friends and at the meeting. The shop itself is very small - they have options for cold drinks and some seating. Definitely would try them again. read more

I got the most beautiful cake and delicious churros for my quinceañera with Sweet Land Cake. Claudia is fantastic! We always have cake left for days with other parties but her cake didn't last more than two days and we even fought for the last piece. She is an expert baker, with a great client service. She goes the extra mile to make sure you're happy with your cake. From now on whenever I need (or not ) a cake I'll be going to her. Everybody loved the taste and complemented it. I absolutely recommend her 100% read more

Excellent sandwiches and desert, pastry and cake all is fantastic flavor and different flavor in the cakes

The shop has a festive, fun atmosphere, with large models of cakes decorating the interior and a ceiling with sprinkles colored onto it. There are an offering of different sandwiches and pastries, all of which promise future visits to make sure I can try them all. The service was prompt and friendly, and the welcoming smiles from behind the counter warmed the shop immediately. The staff were incredibly friendly and pleasant, and my food was ready quickly. On what will be my first if many visits I ordered a Cubano sandwich and cannoli, both of which were terrific. The melted cheese on the sandwich united and amplified the savory meats, which were toasted to perfection. The cannoli bread was flaky with a subtle sweetness and the custard was rich and creamy. read more

Sweet Land Cake - Cannoli and Cubano Sandwich - Bakeries Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

I'm genuinely surprised by the number of positive reviews this place has received. I wanted to enjoy it, but the quality of the sweets was disappointing. I used an app offering a $6 mystery bag supposedly containing $18 worth of same-day leftovers. Instead, I received a small Styrofoam container with one rubbery piece of flan, an extremely small, dry, and dense confetti muffin, and ten tiny, knot-like pastries that were difficult to chew. I'm calling it a muffin because it didn't have any frosting. Everything tasted stale, more like it was several days old than freshly made that day, contrary to the app's description. If this were my business, I would be embarrassed to put out food of that quality. read more

Just got back from a trip to PR. Sad to say it took me so long to check this place out- I heard they used to see some seasonings! I got a Cuban sandwich and an "alcapurria". They were both so delicious!! I will try them out when I need a cake or pastries next time! read more

I was frantically looking for a birthday cake for my sisters 30th birthday with only a 24hr notice. I called so many bakeries in my area and was told it would be impossible to get a cake done for 50 people within that time frame. I called "Sweet Land Cake" and it was possible! I was greeted with kindness without having to share my story, my service mattered . I texted a picture and requested a filling with a confetti batter and was given options on sizes . This bakery was fully stocked , the picture of the cake I sent had an assortment of different flowers on a lavender cake with a gold drizzle and this bakery had it all ! All I had to do was place my order and pay half down and pay the rest during pick up . My sister absolutely loved her custom cake and I received so many compliments from our guests for the bakery. They have an assortment of treats that I can't wait to visit again to try ! The ambiance is welcoming and the people here are so nice . I know where my family will be getting our cakes from , with more notice next time. read more

Stopped in here for some sweets and coffee real quick. Absolutely delicious patties and I plan on stopping back for a custom cake one day.

What are you people smoking ?!!! You people that review this like 4 or 5 star. I have realized you can't trust Arizonians with knowing anything about food from other states or countries. I married a Puerto Rican . I grew up in New York around all Caribbean's, and this ain't it!!! Terribly fried empanadas. The papa rellena is bland and taste terrible. The meat is not well seasoned. I admire those who start businesses, but HEY OWNERS!!! You should be ashamed to call yourself Puerto Ricans !!! Please call your business anything but that. We are def telling all our Caribbean friends that visit not to come here. What a waste of time and money!! The Mexican staff was nice though, very kind, it's not their fault.

I had a sample box of 5 different pastries. They were all fresh and wonderful. The tres leche cake was one of the best I've ever had.

Ordered for a pickup and drove 40mins to pick up. I called before I left my house to make sure it was ready and shop was open and got no response until I was 10mins away I got a text saying that they were on a call so I said I was on my way and got no text back. Once I arrived the doors were locked with a closed sign and another lady was there saying she was there to pick up an order also. The person texting could've responded saying they weren't open instead of waiting until I had already arrived and was calling. Never returning. read more

Came here on a weekend. Unpretnetious little business with a very down to earth staff. I think it is family owned? Anyways, I tried some of their pastry case desserts, which are a steal in price. The one that stuck out the most was a Portuguese type of coconut milk cinnamon pudding. Delicious! read more

Need sweets from back home that taste like they came from your grandma's kitchen? Check. Craving your childhood coffee or malta and can't find it anywhere? Check. How about a sandwich or bread fresh from your favorite PR bakery? Check. I'm telling you, Sweet Land Cakes is a tiny (literally) piece of home that was plucked and placed here in Phoenix. The employees are the warmest and most welcoming, and every time I go, I end up leaving with bags of all the things I miss from home. UM AND THE QUESITOS?!?! Pure authentic, mouthwatering, deliciousness. Just go. Stop reading my rave and go. read more

Small family owned Puerto Rican bakery with lots of really good baked goods. We couldn't decide so we got a little bit of everything to take home. The flan was delicious, so creamy and flavorful with no eggy taste like some tend to have. It's pretty amazing! Also had the bread pudding slice & it was a amazing! They makes custom cakes, and have coffee's. They sell a few other items in the little store check them out! read more

Dropped by after a recommendation. It s a tiny place with a pastry display that had 2 kinds of pastry. That was it. I saw 2 women eating some fried stuff. Smelled good. I bought some Pasteles from the lady. They r like tamales but made with puréed raw green bananas instead of corn. I boiled them and they tasted ok. But I was put off by the texture. The masa or outside of the Pasteles were made using a food processor. It releases the gluten and it becomes gummy. Sometimes shortcuts dont work out. read more

Great taste. Authentic puertorrican pastries and tasty sandwiches. Friendly service. Highly recommend

Three tier cake it was amazing but a few years ago. It was a spider man cake for my nephew that turned 5. The cakes was a big hit at the party. They also have a great sandwich here as well. Would recommend. They were really nice and kind, patient with me and my super hero cake wants and needs back then. read more

From outside, you'd only expect this place to have sweet pastries and cakes. That observation is so very wrong. A step inside and you quickly learn all of the tasty food this bakery/Cafe has to offer. Cubano sandwich Medianoche sandwich Tripleta sandwich Pavo sandwich Jamon y queso (ham and cheese) Various cuchifritos and alcapurrias Oh and pan sobao We ordered cuchifritos - 4 carne pastelillos (beef empanadas) to go. Made from scratch, they are decently sized. Great texture to the dough. Filling was nicely seasoned. Reminded me of me time in PR and all the delicious food I had there. We'll definitely be back to try more from their menu! read more

I'd like to thank Domnic Armato for recommending a spot that I literally have driven by three times a week for the last three years without even noticing. This nondescript little location is an absolute gem and great addition to the cultural fabric of the neighborhood. One suggestion. They ought to expand or change the name. They offer the best Puerto Rican dishes in Phoenix but you'd never know unless you were tipped. The cubano with its sweet bread, ham, and sweet pork is the perfect fusion of flavor. It's pretty heavy so plan on eating it with a friend or over a few meals. The pastries are excellent as well. The type of place that you want to get behind. I look forward to future visits to explore the menu. Maybe I'll even get around to trying the cake. Well done Ben! read more

Excellent! So much fun when you need a energy boost! The owner is uber friendly, and it doesn't get more authentic than beautiful music and him singing classic Puerto Rican songs... all the while your coffee is brewing your and he puts together rn most delicious latte & THEN when it can get better stuffing you with fresh crunchy cheese pastries. I come in and get coffee on weekend while waiting for your weekend Platos they offer. @ $8.99 a plate I encourage you to try either their Pernil! read more

Sweet Land Cake - Birthday cake - Bakeries Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

My first time at a Puerto Rican bakery and it was one I won't forget. I'm lucky because my friend is Puerto Rican and she helped guide me on what everything was. This place is tiny and you can tell as soon as you walk in that it's all heart and will deliver something tasty. I got three quesitos (flaky puff pastry wrapped around sweet cream cheese and a honey glaze)...and it was heavenly. I literally moaned when I tried. I also got brazo gitano (swiss roll cake with guava) and it was light and sweet. I also got this puff pastry layered situation with Carmel and almond shavings on top (my friend had never heard of it), and that was amazing. My friend also got a cheesecake with caramel on top and it was great. All that was missing was some coffee Because of Google reviews, I also wanted to try the Cuban and it was great - tender and cheesy. read more

This place has pan sobao (sweet island bread from heaven...I don't do carbs but I will do these haha) and quesitos (a flaky warm cheese danish in a honey glaze) and they are fresh and delish. I've had thier Cuban sandwich and hands down this is authentic, not some weak interpretation (ive had a hard time getting a good cuban sandwich in AZ, they pretty much all have been horrible, no matter how fancy...the bread is key and so is the pernil...no one else has gotten it even close...sorry not sorry). I've also tried the alcapurrias (a plantain fritter filled with picadillo (beef cooked with sofrito-a blend of bell peppers, cilantro, onion a bunch of there things and happiness) - they are excellent. This is a small place and things are cooked to order, this takes time, so be prepared for this. It's also small inside. I def come here for the food not ambiance. read more

It says online they close at 6 on Saturday. It's a bit of a drive but I need to order a cake, so we make the drive and arrive at 530. The sign on the door says they close at 6. But they are already closed. Very annoyed. Won't be returning. read more

My husband ordered my birthday cake here and it was delicious!! I am normally not a fan of fondant cake because more times than not, I've had the cake taste dry. Sweet Land Cake did an excellent job making the cake moist! It was wonderful! I did not go into the store or speak with anyone personally but I can tell you they make wonderful cake. My husband said he basically sent them a photo of what he wanted and they made it. Great job guys! read more
