    Strawberry cheesecake!!
    Jaimie L.

    Absolutely delicious! I've ordered several cheesecake flavors to be delivered for family occasions and each time without fail everyone RAVES about how amazing they taste!! The service is 1000%! Prompt delivery to my family's home address makes it super convenient too! Donna and Marlene really go above and beyond with all of the extra touches to fit each occasion and accommodate my last minute orders. Also, this is a dark bakery meaning no physical shop which means no driving anywhere in traffic -woohoo! The concept, quality and service is incomparable!

    Pumpkin Cheesecake

    I placed an order for the pumpkin cheesecake for thanksgiving and it did not disappoint. Everyone loved it! I will definitely be making more purchases from this women owned business.

    AMAZING!! ordered from these guys multiple times, and tried a few different flavors, and only issue is I don't know which one I like best! I guess I'll need to keep trying more.

    Vegan & gluten free mango cheesecake
    Adriana S.

    Ever since my parents went both vegan and gluten free it's been nearly impossible to find a place that can make a cake that's both gluten free and vegan. I went on a mission to find a place where I could get my dad a cake for his bday. Thanks to Yelp I found The Bitter Bake House. I reached out to Marlene and asked if they would be able to make a cake that was both vegan and gluten free. To my surprise, Marlene responded and said that they most definitely could!!! Marlene was super attentive and made sure I was happy with the end results. Let me tell you, the cake was BEAUTIFUL! And even though I myself don't follow a vegan or gluten free diet, the cake was bombbbbb!!! It wasn't overly sweet to the point where it makes you feel sick. It was just right, where you find yourself serving yourself a second or third piece. I am happy to have found a place where I can find some sweets where both myself and my family can indulge in guilt free! I'll most definitely be ordering some more pastries in the near future !!

    This is a cute little shop located inside a shopping plaza. There's parking on the street or in the…read moreparking garage but can get a little busy on the weekends. The shop was clean and bright. We were greeted when we walked in and the lady at the front was super friendly and welcoming. That's always my cue to stay and try it out. We tried the banana pudding, piece of vanilla cake, red velvet stuffed chocolate chip cookie, and white chocolate with pistachio. Here are my ratings: Banana Pudding - 10/10 Vanilla cake - 10/10 Red velvet stuffed cookie - 7/10 White chocolate with pistachio - 6/10 We'll definitely be back to try more!

    Used to love this place, but not sure it's really worth it now…read more Service: We waited for some time as the attendant managed a call, and we had one guest in front of us. Not super friendly, we felt very rushed and they tossed our cookies into one small clear plastic container so two were broken before we even walked out of the tiny shop. They ran out of bags, so we hand carried everything out. They didn't have napkins, but a few spoons in the window. Treats: $5 cookies always look amazing but were overly sweet today. Espresso was the most balanced. The chocolate and banana pudding's were very rich, 2 for $15. The kids don't care about service, so we'll try the Brea location.

    I used Pin Up Cakes for my wedding and loved how my cake turned out! Everything was done online and…read morewas super easy. I sent them inspiration pictures of what I wanted and for how many people. I wanted a smaller cake for just me, my husband and our wedding party as we were doing sheet cake for the guests. After sending the pictures, they gave me different options and broke it down by how much each would cost. I loved that they did that! Since I wanted a 2 tier cake, but it was only for 12 people, they gave me the option to make the top tier out of styrofoam to cut costs! They also gave me options on if I wanted them to make flowers out of fondant, or I could bring them flowers and they would put it on, or I could have my florist do it at the venue. This also helped cut cost. I ended up with a strawberry cake with chocolate frosting and it was so delicious! I'm not a big fondant person so I was worried I wasn't going to like that part, but it was honestly so thin and not super sweet which I was very happy about.

There was a sign posted on their door visible from outside saying to email for inquiries. I emailed them on Nov. 3rd, but I didn't not receive a response until Nov. 8th. I would've liked to have been able to try their cakes, but I guess they are very busy and not able to respond to inquiries on a timely manner. It happens.

After requesting to place an order for a cake I would need the next day the staff was more than happy to accept my order. Originally, I would have liked to order a carrot cake but those cakes need to be ordered at least a week in advance so that was very much my fault. I ended up going with a classic tres leches cake which tasted wonderful. Miriam was the one to help me out. Bonus points for having the same name ;) Miriam made great detailed questions to make sure the cake was exactly what I wanted it to be referencing off a picture I had showed her as inspiration. From size all the way down to the smallest details, Miriam disclosed information about how certain designs or details I wanted would change the presentation of the cake, and made sure I was delightlfuly satisfied with what would be the result. She broke down every last detail including how the icing would likely stain our mouths and very nicely reassured me that it would rise right off with water swishes. Overall I was incredibly satisfied with the service I was given, and I greatly appreciate how Miriam thought about every question in order to complete my desired vision.
