    Durian cake: just make it black
    Lena T.

    As a self-proclaimed cake snob, I have pretty high standards: I look for a cake that's moist, spongy, not overly sweet, and has a little bit of denseness to it. Caitlyn's Sweets not only met all those marks but exceeded them! I typically order from Linda's Bakery, but they weren't able to accommodate my wedding. So, based on a recommendation from another picky friend, I decided to take a chance on Caitlyn's. It was a complete blind purchase, and I couldn't be happier with the results. For our wedding, I ordered a three-tier durian cake with a simple matte black finish (my florist handled the flowers). Everyone was thoroughly impressed, and to my slight dismay, there wasn't a single slice left; a true testament to how delicious it was! I recently ordered a durian sheet cake because I had a craving and were going to be hanging out with friends that love durian. This time, I didn't have any specific decoration requests, simply telling them I was ordering it "just to eat." Eventually, I decided on telling them I wanted it black; that's all. I really appreciate and enjoy their style of decorating as it's more modern and with the times than those old school generic fruit or flowers decor. The care they put into packaging was evident; the cake came in a very tall box, ensuring it arrived in perfect condition, especially since some decorations were sticking up. The friends I was with said it was better than the wedding cake, noting it was even more moist. Considering their durian cake from my wedding left me dreaming about it, this recent order was an incredible bonus. If you're looking for an authentic and delicious durian cake, I highly recommend Caitlyn's Sweets. It's so good, I'd literally drive from Reno to San Jose just to satisfy a craving!

    We ordered the Chocolate Biscoff cake from Caitlyn Sweets for our daughter's first birthday, and it was absolutely delicious! The cake was moist, flavorful, and a huge hit with our guests. It also looked incredibly cute and fit our celebration perfectly. Thank you for creating such a beautiful and tasty cake that made her special day even sweeter!

    Another fantastic birthday cake and cupcakes in the books with Caitlyn's Sweets! I love how easy it is to just tell her the theme, send her a coly of the invitation and she just delivers on flavor and decor! I am still a durian flavor stan! But the pandan is a close 2nd! A lovely experience from the texting to the seamless delivery! Would most definitely recommend and be a threepeat customer!

    Caitlyn did such an amazing job with my daughters forst birthday cake! It was beautifully decorated and had the perfect sweetness and moisture. We did the chocolate tres leches with dulce which was a unique flavor and loved by all. The process of going over the design was easy with her and she incorporated all the things we wanted. I would definitely reach out again if I needed to order a custom cake.

    Caitlyn is awesome to work with. I've ordered prob 5 cakes or more from her already either for myself or my family and friends. Cakes are always beautiful and delicious. My Asian MIL even said she doesn't normally eat cakes, but she likes the ones from here. There you go guys, Asian MIL approved. Can't ask for more :)

    Had ordered a cake for my daughters first birthday. We got the chocolate dulce with cookies. The design was just as I had asked for and the taste was phenomenal. Caitlyn was very easy to work with and the entire process was seamless. It was just the right amount of moist and everyone complimented the cake. Maybe I'd ask for extra cookies next time for the crunch

    Love the cake and cookies that she made for my baby shower. It looked exactly like the pictures I showed and tasted amazing. Will definitely order again in future.

    The cakes Caityln makes are not only aesthetically pleasing but they are also delicious too! She offers a variety of flavors including asian ones like matcha, ube, pandan, and durian ;) They are a very pleasant business to order with. I've ordered 3 cakes from her before. I'll let her know the theme, occasion, and any decorations for the theme if there is any. I'll trust her vision that she'll do a good job and she does pull through. I received a bunch of compliments on the cupcakes in terms of taste and look as well.

    Caitlyn did a really good job! I asked her if she can make me this cake for my bf's birthday and she responded right away. I loved how she respond fast and how professional she is! I sent her exactly the same inspo and this is what she made. She truly exceeded my expectation! The cake was so beautiful and it was delicious. If you ever want to have a custom good quality and delicious cake GO CHECK OUT HER WORK! It's worth it!

    Yooreek from My Singing Monsters for my son's birthday.
    Scarlet V.

    I ordered a cake for my son's birthday and was blown away when it was delivered! My son wanted a monster themed cake, but a very specific one from a game that he likes to play. I showed her in game art of that monster and did a small sketch to show her what I envisioned after a few back and forth messages. There were no detailed phone calls or any other way that I communicated what I wanted. Her skill at fondant is amazing! We ordered a strawberry cake, so underneath is a 3 layer strawberry cake with crème in between that had strawberry pieces. The fondant was thick, but it needed to be to structurally hold up the weight of the creation, as a whole. The cake was very moist and the fondant was actually not too sweet. This cake was just for the family, so it served 4 people two nights in a row. It was so well made that I was sad to have to cut into it. It lasted a 50 minute car ride, sitting out at a party, refrigerated, and brought back 50 minutes and refrigerated again looking just as amazing as it had when it was delivered. We got a lot of compliments at the party, not surprisingly. The cost for the amount of work was extremely reasonable. If you are looking for a very artistic baker, look no further.

    My last minute bday cake request. Ordered on Thursday for Saturday of the same week. Caitlyn's Sweets made it happen!!

    My go-to bakery! From the first time they did a cake for me to my most recent last minute request, this bakery delivers . I cannot say enough good things. From the service, to the prompt communication at all hours of day and night, to the presentation of the cakes, to the texture and taste. This place has yet to disappoint. Thank you!

Although my go-to is the honey matcha latte, you can honestly just throw a dart and be pleasantly surprised each time (I've done this about 5 times already). This time, I got the yuzu matcha tea. SUPER REFRESHING! Tart, citrusy and with the earthy matcha, the drink was a great pick me up. I recommend getting this if you can't have whole milk and wanna try something new! My partner got the soft serve and the flavor of the matcha cuts through very well- you won't be disappointed if you're a matcha lover. The line is long, but our orders always come out fairly quickly (around 10 minutes) after we order. I think it's long because others are debating what to pick at the kiosk. But alas, good luck finding parking! My partner and I always have to park on the street side of the plaza and walk over because we can never get a spot.

The store looked kind of dead and did not have a lot of tables + seatings except the long bench. There's plenty of parking spaces since it's in a plaza. We got 2 of the creme brulee matcha swirl due to the hype of this drink. The cream was extremely thick and just for my preference, it was too much. The matcha was not as strong to balance the sweetness and decadency of the cream. We ended up letting it melt a bit so we can drink the matcha without having to eat chunks of the cream. If you like your matcha thick, then I recommend this drink! It was just not up my alley unfortunately.

What made the experience even better was the friendly staff. They were patient while I looked through the display case and happy to answer questions about their most popular items. Their enthusiasm made the visit feel more personal rather than just another stop at a store. The bakery itself was clean, charming, and had a welcoming atmosphere that made me want to stay longer. It's the kind of place that feels perfect for grabbing breakfast, meeting a friend for coffee, or picking up a dessert for a special occasion. I'll definitely be coming back to try more of their baked goods. This bakery has quickly become one of my favorite local spots.

The mochi balls, weren't very soggy and they had the perfect chewiness to them. The mango sorbet was nice and creamy even thought was perfect. It was absolutely delicious. Perfect summer dessert. People working there were very friendly and patient when I asked them numerous questions about the menu. They made good recommendations after they figured out what I would like. It's a cute little store with enough seating for 20 -30 people. It's has a fresh nice and sunny feel and I love the ambience with the mango decor.

    I'LL NEVER FORGIVE HUI LAU SHAN FOR LEAVING THE 626…read more The closest one to me is around an hour away, so when I was visiting my boyfriend and there being a closer one nearby, I had to stop at this one. Plaza is a super fisted PvP zone since there's lots of eateries, cafes, and other businesses. Just park a bit further and walk in, since no one wants to walk. Long line for people ordering as well, but I think you can order online for pick up. Strong durian smell here and it's not as cute as what the Rowland Heights location used to be (mango plushies and huge wall art of their cute mango and fruit mascots). Because of people crowding at the tables in the middle, it was hard to tell where the ordering line was until others were cutting in line. So maybe just move those tables. A bit dirtier because of the crowds, but the service was efficient despite the crowds. I got my favorite mango pomelo sago and mango chewy ball and it's delicious as any of the other locations. Delicious sweet mango taste, not too tart. Sweet and yummy and fresh. Great combination of textures and taste. Already dreaming of my next visit.

Ordering was quick and convenient through the self-service kiosk, and our desserts were ready within just a few minutes.

Overall, if you're looking for a lighter, more manageable portion of bingsoo that still delivers on flavor, I would definitely recommend checking this place out. The desserts are delicious, the service is quick, and the atmosphere makes it a great place to relax and enjoy something sweet.

The drink has a creamy salted coconut milk cold foam on top and some mango puree and glutinous rice on the bottom. Once everything was mixed, the mango flavor does get lost unfortunately. But still, the drink was amazing and rich. The guava li-hing matcha was sooo vibrant! I loved how the tropical flavor of the guava cold foam sprinkled with li-hing balanced out the earthy matcha.
