    Dowel not appropriate size, cake fell apart within minutes of pick up.
    Flavia N.

    I waited and hesitated to write this review. I met the owner on a local online group and was pleased with the efficiency and communication in ordering a two tier cake for my son's birthday. Sadly, the construction of the cake did not last. Included is a photo of the bottom layer looking almost sliced open. A few family members that were helping me set up at the party had baked large cakes before and recognized that the rod or dowel which was to hold top to bottom layer, did in fact not reach the bottom layer. I wish I had time to Photograph that part but as you can imagine I was busy now trying to utilize the time to set up the rest of the party. One also mentioned that maybe the cake should have been frozen over night to set. The owner did tell me she would refrigerate the cake the night prior. I hired who I thought was a professional that was confident in commenting on my online post to mention she can bake such a cake. A couple of days later I wrote her mentioning the disappointment since we couldn't use the cake which was my main decor/theme. She went on to reply that she thought it was the fault of the drive over (which was a couple of miles in AC, using the proper interventions). This was after she read my message and saw a photo where it's clear what the issue is. The lack of accountability made it even more disheartening. This was my son's first birthday party and a huge let down. She has now refunded half my cost- which doesn't cover the stress and disappointment. Be diligent in ensuring your baker has experience with the type of cake you need is my advice. Editing to add that the rods were not long enough to reach the bottom layer. You don't have to be a baker as it turns out to see what the issue is. Despite the conversation, feedback and now this review- The owner continues to reply in what she thought were transport conditions that affected the cake, however I'll let the photo speak for itself. The lack of accountability is unpleasant and I won't spend additional time on this matter. I just want to save a fellow local mom from the stress and disheartening feelings of your kiddos birthday being ruined.

    What it should have looked like. Big difference

    I was pretty unhappy with the cake I ordered for my husband. It looked nothing like the picture of the one I showed. It had peanuts in it which I was not aware of and my grandson has allergies. It was also very dry. This may be the place for dinner but my husband and I are not fans. I'm not sure how to make a response but I asked for that cake below. A Reeses peanut butter chocolate cake. I never said I didn't want it custom or anything like that. I guess you can say what you like. I know what I asked for. Have a great day;

    This is an update to my initial review of this bakery. Although the cake didn't turn out as expected and it was disappointing for us. I posted my review with along with pics and the owner Ofelia reached out to me immediately to apologize. She offered a full refund and was determined to find out what went wrong with the cake. I felt her apology was sincere and based on her quick response and customer service, I decided to change my rating.

    3 Little Cupcakes made the cake on the right with the ice cream cone on top. It was a big hit!

    This was the first time I've ordered a cake from 3 Little Cupcakes and I was so happy that I did! Everyone at our baby shower said it was the best cake they've ever had and I have to agree. It was light & wasn't too sweet. It was gone by the end of the party, which usually never happened with other cakes. Ofelua went above and beyond to make sure I was happy. I gave her a photo of what I wanted and she did it! I'll be using them again!

    Cmon it don't get no better

    My husband surprised with the cutest cake ever!!! They are extremely generous the cake is HUGE!!!!! Best cake I ever had and even better it's all made from scratch . The service was A-1 as to we got our son his 4th birthday cake from here as well . They are a small family owned business that deserves the entire community to give them A try! Trust me you won't be disappointed!! Thank you for making my birthday extra special with every detail you added to my cake .

    Ofelia is an absolute superhero for coming to my rescue. I was contracted to plan a lavish, last-minute Safari themed birthday party and she didn't bat an eyelash when I called her desperate to bring our vision to life with only a week to go. She helped us customize DIY cookie kits as party favors and created the cutest set of Big Cat cupcakes for dessert. They couldn't have come out more perfect. They were almost too cute to eat... but then we quickly realized they were delish as well! Thank you Ofelia for both your patience and artistry. Looking forward to ordering again for the next event!

    My hunny and I stopped into their location at Del Amo Mall last weekend, as we...well he loves desserts or anything sweet... Don't tell him I said that! Haha! I, on the other hand love cake, if I do dessert at all. So cupcakes are the best of both worlds! We walked in and were immediately greeted by the owner/manager/Baker and another employee. They asked if we'd been there before, which we hadn't and proceeded to explain all the flavors that they had. They even offered for us to try any ice cream flavor we wanted. We chose a 4 pack and got a chocolate peanut butter, birthday cake, and two others that I can't remember the names to. All moist and delicious! No regrets! Customer service was on point! I love that they're a family owned business. Although they have a location here, we went to their location at Del Amo Mall across from the AMC theater. They were all very friendly and invited us back for more! They even hold birthday parties in the store! There are also a variety of cookies and at least 20+ flavors of cupcakes to choose from! I heard everything from marble cake and chocolate peanut butter to strawberry, s'mores and caramel! When I chose 3 of our cupcakes, she asked if that was all I wanted and I told her, "Heckkkkkk no! I still have one more space in my box! Lol!"

    Ordered custom cookies for my sons classes and the kids absolutely loved it. Super cute and clean design and the cookies were a lot bigger (fatter) than I thought and not the really thin cheap ones. She made them a few hours early so we got to pick it up with time to spare. Overall it was a great experience and definitely recommended.

    Ofelia did a promotion over Easter- a little box with some frosting, some sprinkles, and Easter-themed sugar cookies. We bought 6 boxes and gave them to friends (and kept one for ourself!). Our kids LOVED it. Our friend's kids squealed with delight and sent us videos. These kits brought joy to so many. The cookies were delightful- moist and yummy. The frosting was perfection. While we waited, I bought some cake pops too! They were fantastic. We found our new bakery! They have taken precautions during this time by: 1. Allowing only 1 customer at a time. 2. Requesting every customer to wear masks 3. Giving an option to pay online (venmo).

    The sample I asked them to create
    Hannah H.

    If you're looking for a custom Disney character cake, this is not the place. I asked if they could create a Minnie mouse cake and but what they provided did not resemble what they said they could deliver. I wish they told me that they cannot replicate my example so I could continue to look elsewhere. I was still charged my deposit of 57.50 and the cake itself did not taste good.

    Take a look at the way the owner responds, very unprofessional!

    I was very excited to try this local place. Much to my dismay I was extremely disappointed. Once I entered the store I did not have a good feeling. Their products just did not look appetizing. I purchased the chocolate chip cookies and they are disgusting. I threw them in the trash. They have absolutely no flavor and are are weird consistency. Their cupcakes lack any sort of flavor as well and are soggy! I felt like I was eating a tres leches cake...Disgusting! You're better off buying cupcakes at Sam's Club at a way better deal. This place is so overpriced and a complete waste of money. I should have read the most recent review because she had a very similar experience. This place has multiple reviews complaining about the same problem, that should tell you something. Your products just are not good. This owner is very unprofessional. Take a look at the photo. She messaged me and told me I should have gone somewhere else. Wow! Instead of apologizing publicly and trying to make things right on my review she had to send a nasty childish response directly. How is this lady still in business? I'll tell you how... BOGUS REVIEWS luring in customers with fake five star reviews. ** What a coincidence that this business received two five star reviews the day REAL customers have the same problems, complaints and experience with the lack of flavor and soggy cupcakes. Those two reviews are suspect in my opinion and have no history on Yelp. Probably friends or relatives. Update*** Since I posted my review and called out this business on those phony five star reviews they have since been taken down! DO NOT PATRONIZE THIS BUSINESS!! DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY! YOU WILL END UP THROWING THE ITEMS IN THE TRASH JUST LIKE MULTIPLE CUSTOMERS HAVE STATED ON THEIR REVIEWS!

    I had the best custom number cake for my 35th birthday made here and not only was it STUNNING, it was SO delicious!! The owner is so friendly and easy to work with and I'm so excited to have found this place. I sent her inspiration pictures and she brought my vision to life so easily. Highly recommend for all and any occasions!

    S'more cupcake

    The cupcakes were wet for some reason. Possibly because it was stored in a freezer. Also too sweet. Tasted like I was eating the whole cake in 3 bites and I like sugar a lot. You will need to get a lot of water after. Unfortunately, it was disappointing.

    I don't crave halo halo often, but when I do, I'm getting the UPSIDE DOWN HALO HALO from here!…read moreWhile it isn't the most traditional version of the dessert, it still has all of my favorite parts. I love that the base is an ube milkshake and the corn flakes add a nice crunch. I'm glad they opened this Carson location because it's closer to me and I can fulfill my cravings!

    My partner and I stopped by Cafe 86 in Carson hoping we had found our next go-to halo-halo spot…read more Unfortunately, authenticity and customer service were both missing from the recipe. Parking was easy, and when we walked in, there was only one occupied table. Three employees were chatting in the back. We were greeted, but it felt more like, "What would you like?" than "Welcome in." No smile, no conversation, no thank you--just a transaction. After taking our order, the employee returned to chatting with coworkers. When our order was ready, our name was called, the halo-halo was placed on the counter, and that was the end of the interaction. As for the halo-halo itself, my partner rated it a 2/10. It was overwhelmingly sweet and overpriced for what we received. We were hoping for layers of flavor and nostalgia but got a sugar rush that could probably power a small city. As a business owner myself, I understand that customer service is one of the biggest drivers of customer retention. Great products can bring people in once, but great service brings them back. Unfortunately, this visit missed the mark on both. The good news? These issues are fixable. A little more warmth, engagement, and hospitality would go a long way. Until then, we'll continue our search for our next favorite halo-halo spot.
