Scott is amazing!…read more Just a few days before my son's birthday party, I realized I needed more than just cookies. I wanted unique cupcakes instead of the typical grocery store variety. After looking around, the first ones that caught my eye were Kick Ass Cupcakes. Even though it was only a couple of days before the party, I figured it couldn't hurt to ask. The worst he could say was no! Not only did Scott say yes, but he made it happen. He created two dozen beautiful cupcakes in four incredible flavors: Orange Creamsicle, Strawberry Lemonade, Shirley Temple, and Lemon. They were absolutely delicious and a huge hit with both the kids and adults. The cupcakes tasted just as amazing as they looked. I can't wait to order from Scott again and highly recommend Kick Ass Cupcakes for birthdays, celebrations, or any special occasion!

I tried the strawberry- tasted like a strawberry shake. Lemon was tasty but not my fav. My neighbor had the red velvet. She loved the frosting. I've had frost cupcakes before and I did like the frosting here better. But I wish they made a true cupcake flavor- not just different frostings. It felt like we were getting vanilla and chocolate cupcakes with just different frostings. Still good but slightly disappointing. Parking was easy behind the building- I imagine the weekends might be challenging. Things were well marked but price was hard to find- I had to ask.

I most recently ordered cupcakes (vanilla with strawberry filling, banana, and lemon and their fruit tarts) with buttercream frosting. He was able to customize the frosting on the cupcakes to match the baby shower colors and also included edible baby shower toppings (rattles, bottles, baby toys...etc). Lindley is easy to communicate with. From the start of our email communication, he responded in a very timely manner and made the ordering process so easy. On the day of the event, he dropped off the cupcakes and tarts early, which worked out for me and I was able to set up the dessert table with plenty of time. Overall, I had a great experience. I highly recommend him for your events whether they are small or large. I will definitely be ordering from him again for future events.

I guess I missed the note on their website that says you need to order vegan or gluten free cupcakes two days in advance. It was nice that they had red velvet but it seems like it's the go-to choice for most places, which makes it hard not to judge against other cupcakes. It was very good, the cake was moist, and I enjoyed the frosting. But it didn't quite measure up to my favorite vegan red velvet cupcake from Sprinkles. The shop is so cute and there's a good amount of parking. I went on a day when there were two people working, and they were both super nice. I thought the male worker was a bit more helpful, but they were both kind. I'd love to see more than one vegan option on the consistent in-store menu, rather than needing to order ahead.

I filled out the form on their website a couple of weeks before my husband birthday, and noticed that their prices had increased recently. The regular 6" black sesame blueberry hojicha cost $55. Megan responded in email within 2 days as expected. Her payment instructions were very clear, and we agreed to meet at their designated community park at 10am on Sunday. (They would also do delivery with an additional cost.) An hour before our meeting time, she sent a text with the make/model/color of their car, as well as, some dessert care instructions. They arrived on time. The cake was carefully packaged and included a "Happy Birthday" paper topper. The cake was really good. It was fresh and airy; the black sesame taste really stood out; the blueberry jam was delicious and not too sweet; the hojicha fresh cream was light and flavorful. While we all really enjoyed the cake, it's very pricey, and it's a 20-min drive from home to pick it up at one of the two time choices.

I also need to mention that the ordering process was so easy and the service at pickup was excellent. I didn't realize they have a parking lot behind the shop, so note this if you're picking up a large order so you don't have to walk back to the garage on University like I did!

When you walk in, make sure to grab a number since the staff assists customers in order by number. Once you know what you want, the line moves pretty quickly and they're efficient with getting your order together. They also have a bunch of other things you can purchase around the store, so it's fun to browse while you wait. Definitely a great spot for anyone with a sweet tooth, and I'll be back to try more of their desserts!

I must admit that I still have a knee-jerk reaction of rolling my eyes whenever someone tells me…read morethat they are gluten-free (NOT counting those that have Celiac/gluten allergies). However, I will say that one good thing that has come from this movement is the plethora of innovative gluten free bakeries and eateries that serve up tasty products. I first learned about Sweet Diplomacy when my neighbors gave me some cupcakes from here that tasted amazing. When I looked them up, I was surprised to learn that they were in Los Altos as I live nearby and had never heard of them. The shop is very cute and homely and feels as if you are in someone's home kitchen. Although they seem to specialize in cupcakes, they also serve a number of other gluten-free and even vegan items. I should note that this bakery focuses on more desserts (ie cookies, cakes, tarts, etc.) rather than pastries (ie croissants and buns). I never thought that my new favorite go-to bakery would be a gluten-free one. As a Mountain View resident, I must say that it is also nice not to have to trek to Palo Alto in order to get some tasty cupcakes!

Upon entering, I was really impressed with how clean and nice the decor was. The tables and chairs were really upscaled and I felt like I was visiting a fancy french style cafe. There was even a small quiet room for those who needed to do some computer work and outdoor seating. The staff was really great and knowledgeable about all the products. The display case showed all of the pastries they had available. I went to the counter and ordered a little of everything, just so that I could get a good feel for it. The only table service is they bring the order to you. I had an Apple Turnover, Ube Sesame Tart, Lemon tart, and a Mini Almond Croissant. These were house made and really fresh and excellent.

I like cardamom, but even one pump was incredibly overpowering and ruined the drink for me. I did order ahead my drink, and "bagel" were ready. There happened to be a race downtown, which obviously isn't the café's fault, but after dealing with parking and walking over to pick everything up, it was extra disappointing to not enjoy either thing I ordered. The inside is cute, but overall this felt like a waste of time and money. I would've rather just gone to Starbucks or Peet's, and I'm not sure I'd come back.

My husband…read moreordered it for me, but I wanted to come with him to see what other goodies they had to offer. This was both our first time coming here. We used to shop and order our cakes from Dick's bakery, up until they burnt down. We loved their famous burnt almond cake. When I heard that Peter's makes an excellent burnt almond cake, as well, I knew that's where I wanted my birthday cake to come from. When I opened the door, to enter the bakery, a fresh smell of baked goods and sweets hit me in the best possible way. It smelled like fresh maple glazed donuts. I love that smell. We were warmly greeted by the staff. It wasn't busy at all, so we took our time looking for other sweets to purchase. They found our pre-ordered cake and they did a wonderful job decorating with a cute pumpkin on the top. We also chose an apricot danish, a maple bar and a raisin snail. The prices were very affordable and reasonable here. I really loved how all the pastries and cakes. were displayed in their cases. Everything looked amazing. They even sell fresh loaves of bread and rolls. The staff were very friendly and accommodating. We were immediately helped with a smile. I love the old fashioned vibe in here. Both pastry and cake boxes were tired up with sting, to properly secure our box. We paid for our goods and hurried home to try a few of them. The maple doughnut was good. I loved the icing better than the doughnut itself. The apricot danish was delicious and so soft. The apricots on the top were not overly sweet, which I prefer. The pumpkin burnt almond cake was so good. The cake was so soft and light with a wonderful pumpkin flavor that reminds me of fall. The frosting and custard filling paired perfectly with the pumpkin cake. The caramelized almonds covered the entire outer cake and offered a nice flavorful crunch. The whole thing works perfectly. I didn't even know you could get the burnt almond cake in pumpkin. A huge thank you to my friend John D. for letting me know about this limited time fall flavor. We will definitely be back for more soon.

On September 4, 2026, I ordered and paid for my mother's 96th birthday cake--a burnt almond cake--a day in advance. When I arrived to pick it up, the line was very long, and the wait took far too long. Unfortunately, the cake itself was unbelievably dry and crumbled with every bite. After recommending Peter's Bakery to family and friends for many years, I was embarrassed to serve this cake. Sadly, it took away from a very special birthday celebration. I hope Peter's Bakery improves both its customer service and the quality of its cakes.
