    Not only was my cake absolutely beautiful, but the flavors were incredible. Xochilt was communicative, kind, and so helpful in bringing my dream birthday cake to life. Highly recommend!

    I hesitated writing this review because I genuinely never leave bad reviews and still got a decent cake out of it in the end but I'm hoping that this will influence this owner to be more receptive and sensitive to what people are asking for and literally paying for her to do. My boyfriend wanted to have a special custom cake made for my 30th birthday so we looked around and because I had mutual followers with Xochilt's Desserts, I trusted to go to her. She was driving distance from us and I liked her work. I found a cake on Pinterest that I completely fell in love with and I basically wanted my cake (as closely as possible) to resemble this one. Of course I'm asking her to make a cake someone else made, so I understand it's not going to be a carbon copy and I feel that I was genuinely ok with that, as long as the basic theme was consistent. She did say that she would try to make it as close as possible but it was all depending on what flowers they have. Again, fine with us. We didn't hear from her until about 2 days before we were meant to pick up the cake, when she reached out and told my boyfriend that she couldn't find the flowers and that if by the next day, she still couldn't find them, would it be ok if she used different flowers & different colors. Since she hadn't even made the cake yet, we decided to let her know we would rather go with a more simple cake if she's unable to find the right flowers. I would have been more than happy with an alternative cake that I got to choose, rather than her free styling the original cake I wanted. What bothered me in this moment, was her response to my boyfriend. She got super defensive and said she hoped we would trust that she can still make the cake pretty with "any" flowers she finds. Lol- of course we trusted her work, which is why we paid her to make our cake. But I'm sorry, is this cake for her or for me? It was a very strange and prideful response from someone who makes a living out of customizing cakes based on what her customers want. I told my boyfriend to just give her the reins, essentially, I didn't want to make a big deal out of it and I ended up trusting that even with different flowers / colors, the cake would still closely resemble the one I wanted. The cake was nice, however, looked nothing like the one I wanted. She never even mentioned that her cake would be two tiered / that she wasn't going to make ours the one tier shown in the picture. I'm going to include the pictures for reference, but I want to emphasize that this review is not to shit on her cake or her work. However, I would be lying if I said I wasn't super disappointed when I saw the cake. I wanted the cake vibrant with bright colors (just like the picture) and she used pastel colors. It felt like she really wanted to add her own touch which just felt selfish when someone is paying you close to $200 for a cake. I do want to add that we asked her to leave a space blank so we could write in "thirty" ourselves as I like my handwriting and wanted to do it myself. The cake is pretty but again I just felt that she was insensitive to what we wanted. ***If you "don't ever replicate a cake" then please be transparent about that when people are inquiring your services, thank you.

    The only negative about Xochilt's cakes is that they are absolutely too beautiful to eat ! A true artist ... each masterpiece she creates is not only stunning but absolutely delicious. From her cakes to her cookies ... all so incredibly tasty! She is detailed and truly cares about what she is creating.

    Cakes are aesthetically pleasing to the eyes BUT the best part is that they taste EVEN better !! can give her an inspo picture and her artistic vision will deliver everytime !! Communication is on point as well! My go to cake artist for every event ! Ps. Try her carrot cake - super moist!

    Custom cake

    Xóchitl goes above and beyond to make your cake dreams come true! On top of looking pretty the inside they also taste so good which in my opinion is really hard to find! Don't think twice order the cake it's worth it!

    Xochilt's Desserts for the win!! A friend of mine heard about this bakery and ordered a cake for my 40th. It was divine. Several people at the party commented on how they were not typically into sweets or cake... and yet they were all in. Hands down one of the best cakes ever. To top it off- also gorgeous. Evident that the baker is passionate about their products and put a lot of heart in their work. Thank you so much.

    Our favorite cake yet  so special

    lived in Long Beach all my life and finally got to try Nonna, it was great! expect to wait a bit…read morearound brunch because they do get busy, but staff was super respectful and informative especially since it was my first time seeing the menu. 10/10 def recommend the rigatoni! but will be back to try other dishes :) seating area and table set up was nice and neat as well ++++

    This was me and my friends 2nd time to the Summer Nights and last year we really really enjoyed it…read more Everything was delicious and we couldn't wait to go back. This time (yesterday), however, was not nearly the same experience. First of all, I realized we couldn't book a table for 8 people, so me and my friends book 2 tables for 8.30PM. I called asking if it's possible to put our tables together close or side by side, they said they will try their best. We all showed up at 8.30 and waited until around 9-9.15 because they only had 1 table ready. Ok. Come the time the other table opened and it's not even that close to each other. But it's okay, I respect the limitations on this part. No one came to us to take our order or even give us water until way later, and we got our drinks at 9.45. Another critique is that my friend called and ask how much corkage fee and they said $25. It turned out to be $40. Another disappointment, but it's ok. Not much can be done bout that part. Next thing is the food. We enjoyed the fried green beans. Crudo was really really salty, and it's not only 1 person thought that. We wondered if the kitchen mistakenly salted the fish twice. We enjoyed the peach salad. We ordered a few different pasta and the tagliatelle in particular was disappointing. It really lacked flavor that we had to mix the other pasta dish sauce to it. The pork plate was good, a bit small but we enjoyed it. Now the mussles and frites were disappointing too. The sauce just didn't do it for me (other friends agreed). I always talked really highly about Nonna Mercato (I also enjoyed the brunch so much) and always told people that this is one of my most favorite restaurants in Long Beach, but this one really missed the mark for me and my friends. I don't know if this would make us want to go to Summer Nights again next time. For $130 per person (after tax, tip, and corkage fees), I definitely hoped for a much better experience.

    Really excited to see Holey Grail has arrived in Long Beach! I first tried their donuts in…read moreHonolulu, and these mini treats are just as amazing. Each one is packed with flavor, making you wish you had ordered a dozen instead of just one or two. Given their size, I'd recommend two donuts per person. They bake everything fresh to order and offer a wide variety of flavors, and the staff is welcoming and helpful when recommending what to try. With plenty of indoor and outdoor seating, it's also a great spot to work remotely or catch up on emails. Also make sure to check out their cute merch items when you're waiting on your order!

    You can no longer find the holy grail here on 2nd Street, Belmont Shore. This brand came from…read moreHawaii but looks like the other locations here in the Southland have been marked as closed. What made them different is they used taro flour and cooked them in coconut oil. Some of their flavors were tropical. Now I can write about how the oil smell emanating from the store made me nauseous whenever I passed by during business hours. It's weird because I didn't think bad of the donuts themselves and could stand to eat them. I will say after having them on two prior occasions, they made an impression on me when they participated in the yearly Belmont Shore chocolate festival. They offered a freshly chocolate glazed donut. It was so delicious having it fresh as opposed to letting it sit and have later. Thanks for the memories! I won't forget you, Holey Grail!

    This place is GOATED. They have the best brownie bites in the city. All their flavors are so good…read moreand buttery. The price for the amount you get - whether it's small or large - is really good. I've tried all their flavors, which they have a variety of. They have ube, espresso, matcha, pandan, strawberry, chocolate, and ube chocolate. If you order a small, you only get to choose one flavor but for a medium/large, you can choose more flavors. I have yet to try their cookies and drinks but I'm sure they taste as good!

    Was near Foodologie the other day and couldn't get there in time and their amazing cookies have…read morebeen on my mind since then. Today was the day to right that wrong. Went with the ube and a white chocolate macadamia. Of course both were delicious. One major caveat though-you MUST get them warmed up. Last time I had their cookies they were warm and I fell in love. This time I thought I would eat it later so I declined. Well, of course once I got the cookies in my mitts I had to have a bite or two. Initially, I was completely disappointed, and thought this can't be right. I was going to ask the friendly staff if they could warm it up, but that seemed weird since I had already broken off a couple of bites. Took my ube home, quick 15 second warm up and it was back to perfection. Rookie mistake on my part and I won't do it again. While I was in the store I nearly ended up buying a load of cute items, that I thought I absolutely must have. Showed some restraint, but I can't guarantee I will be able to again.
