    Cake was DELICIOUS! We were all pleasantly surprised and will be returning for future celebrations!
    Karlon Z.

    Avila's bakery saved the day! The only business that was responsive 2 weeks prior to the event date, and got exactly what I requested. Not only was the final product absolutely stunning, but the cake was DELICIOUS - soooo good! Astrid was also very sweet and very communicative. Because I'm in the area, this was a very convenient pick up that was reliable and easy. We will be back for future celebrations, thank you so much for your work!!!

    The inside   of the cake.

    I would give Astrid a 10 if Yelp allowed it because her customer service and quality of her products are amazing! We called on a bit of short notice and she responded very quickly. She worked with me to find a great Harry Potter design and delivered exactly what we wanted. I know the design is one thing but you always wonder if the cake will taste as good as it looks and it was delicious. Moist and yummy. I asked for one layer of whipped cream and mango and another layer of Nutella and boy did she deliver! And her price.....for the craftsmanship and attention to detail she did and delivery.....could not be beat!!! I had another bakery from Berkeley quote $450 for the exact same cake then refused to do it on such short notice. Thank goodness or we would not have found this wonderful artist!' Astrid is now my " go to" for any event. My daughter's 30th birthday was a hit because of her! Thank you so much for all you do.

    Of course I do everything last minute. Smh I contacted Avila a week before my husband's birthday celebration luckily she had a opening to make my cake. I sent a few pictures of what I wanted well in the area of what I wanted and she delivered!!! She was so sweet and responded so quickly to every text message and call. Not only was the cake beautiful on the outside it was moist and flavorful on the inside, so much so that one of my guest asked for her information because in her words " this cake melts in your mouth" I wish I would of gotten a picture of the inside. I ordered strawberry and it was delicious. Avila your are officially my go to whenever I need a cake.

    Heart shaped cake

    The BEST birthday cake I've ever had! Astrid is amazing!! I sent her a photo idea from Pinterest and she was spot on with the results! She is super friendly & very responsive which I appreciate so much. The ordering process was very easy. I will definitely be ordering cakes from her in the future. Thank you so much again!!!

    Really tried to refrain myself from posting negativity of this "baker" but she leaves me no choice due to her lack of professionalism and care for her customers. Had a two tier cake made for 3/22 by her. Picked up the cake at 11:00 and it came out great. Got home around 11:30-11:40 to load of up vehicles with the rest of the party stuff. By time we were done loading and left for the venue located in Oakley it was about 1:30. During the drive to Oakley from Antioch the cake completely collapsed. It was not driven with while on the freeway nor was I driving fast. I purposely made sure to drive accordingly. The cake clearly collapsed from poor structure and put together. It resulted in us having no cake for the birthday. I reached out and sent her a photo and she asked if I could bring the cake back for her to attempt to fix. Which made no sense because you can clearly see the cake was done and I did not have time as the party was to begin shortly for my two sons. She then said the cake should have been removed immediately from the car and I explained that it was only sitting because we were loading up for the party , it was cold outside with windows down and on a flat surface. When I finally got home after the party and settling down, I texted her explaining how upsetting and disappointing it was and if she could refund me the full amount or at least figure out something she thought was fair. I paid $180 and she never responded. I texted her again the following morning and again no response. She can care less about the satisfaction of her customers and only cares about her profit. She could care less to have return customers. Such a joke of a lady. So upset that this happened and I wasted $180.

    My daughter and her cake lol

    I inquired about a two tier cake for my daughter 12th birthday! Was very indecisive on what the colors of the cake should be, let alone the theme of the cake. I showed her a picture of a cake to replicate and let me just say she did an AMAZING job! I love that she was able to get the same style of the table toppers of the original cake created! She also packaged the cake really well too! Thank you so much for creating a beautiful cake for my daughters birthday! She was absolutely in love just like I was!

    Amazing!! Astrid is an awesome baker! The designs were on point! The smash cake was so perfect! Definitely going to save her number for the next party!

    Another beautifully decorated cake and all of us enjoyed the taste!! My very picky (when it comes to custom cakes) friend will now call when she needs a cake! Outstanding service too.

    We usually stop by Sip & Scoop whenever we're in Brentwood, and we've noticed it has changed a lot…read moreover time. The place looks really nice now--such a pleasant spot to sit, enjoy your treats, and relax, especially with kids. The ice cream is always delicious, and we absolutely love their affogato. I was also amazed that they go by cups--we got a lot for the large cups, which felt like great value! I did want to share a small piece of feedback about our recent visit. In the past, water was available in small jars, but now it's set up in a larger dispenser. After ordering ice cream, we went to grab some water, but it had run out. I let the staff member in front know, and she kindly explained that they were out, which I completely understood. However, another staff member suddenly commented that there was no water and that if I wanted some, I should buy and pay for it. It was a bit surprising--not because of the policy, but because of the tone, which came across as a bit harsh. Maybe she was just having a bad day, which I can understand, but the delivery didn't feel very welcoming. I want to emphasize that I have no issue paying for water at all; in fact, I planned to go back to the car after ice cream to get water since we parked nearby. It was just the way it was said that didn't sit well. I didn't say anything at the moment since I understand everyone can have off days, but I do think consistency in how customers are spoken to is important--others might not take that tone as lightly. When I sat down, another staff member came over and offered my family water. If you happen to read this--thank you. Your kindness really meant a lot to us. Overall, we still enjoy coming here for the great ice cream, generous portions, and the cozy atmosphere. Sharing this as feedback because we enjoy this place and would love to keep having great experiences here.

    I would have marked for 4 stars but I've noticed that the owners don't read my reviews if it is 4…read moreor 5 stars The only issue was while waiting, I noticed another customer come in after us but already got her order. I said out loud because I was sitting outside that if she got her order already that means ours should have already been done. The customer after us ordered the same item we picked and she just took it BUT the employee should've known that she is the next and since I said it so loudly the lady heard me and said oh this might be yours. I took it from her when she handed it to me. We were going to wait another longer time just because the employee gave it to the wrong customer first. PLEASE take names for the order please!! They called out the item, if that, then please notice who ordered FIRST of same item. I would have been mad if we had to wait, my star rating would be 2...besides that the bubble waffle Nutella works was good Small location but spacious with seating inside and out. Located between a lounge and a brewery Mural across the street, street parking

My most favorite is the chocolate twisted tarte with strawberries and cream on top! They give you a lot of fresh strawberries! I also tried the Dubai chocolate mochinut and it was good!

We did try their coffee there, and it wasn't good. But all the bakery foods are so good! Highly recommend checking this place out!

Between all of us, we ordered more than a dozen drinks along with plenty of pastries. As the afternoon went on, it became unbearably hot inside the café. We asked the staff if they could lower the temperature, but were told that administration had taken the remote control and that employees did not have access to adjust the air conditioning. It was a very unusual explanation, and honestly, I wasn't sure whether it was true or if they simply wanted us to leave. Unfortunately, the uncomfortable temperature made it difficult to enjoy our time there, especially during a meeting. Based on this experience, I don't plan on returning anytime soon.
