Stopped in for a cup coffee. We were greeted by a gracious young man who provided amazing customer service. Coffee, fantastic! Clean, bright modern decor. The cakes looked delectable. Can't wait to return. read more

This is honestly ridiculous at this point. This is the 3rd time I've shown up right at your posted opening time (9:00 AM), and once again, nobody is there and the place isn't open. I even waited until 9:15, and it looked like an employee was just standing around waiting for a manager to show up. If you can't open on time, don't advertise that you do. People plan their day around your posted hours, and this kind of inconsistency just wastes customers' time. Management seriously needs to get it together and put someone reliable in charge. This isn't a one-time mistake--it's a pattern read more

The good: I've had this place bookmarked since they've opened! It's rare to find places that make honey cake so I was psyched about this place offering that. I tried the birdie (like honey cake but with custard and chocolate ganache), tres leches with berries, chocolate cherry cake and a hazelnut with vanilla cake. The tres leches was my favorite. The flavor tasted like mascarpone and it was light and not too sweet (the ultimate Asian compliment). I liked their indoor/outdoor space and covered patio area. Water was self-serve. They serve whole cakes for around $60. Individual slices are in small plastic containers. They're walking distance from the beach and you can see the ocean from their patio. The space is bright, modern, and clean. The bad: They seemed to offer some pastries too but they weren't on display (I just saw them on a tray behind the counter). I would've liked more crunch and more nuts in the hazelnut cake. A wafer or crunchy layer would've been great. The interesting: The bakery is Armenian owned but they make honey cake as well (originally Russian, but very popular in other countries too like Ukraine). I found free street parking across the street but it was 1 hour only. You don't often find hazelnut cake that isn't paired with chocolate (though they also had a chocolate hazelnut cake). read more

Cake n Bake is hands down my new favorite bakery (+ coffee + pastry) shop in Hermosa! From the moment you step inside the light and airy shop - which offers both indoor and outdoor patio seating - you're greeted by Sash, who radiates warmth and friendliness. He takes the time to walk you through all the amazing flavors - honey, birdie, berry, choco-raspberry, choco-Nutella, and spinach are amongst the most popular - and makes super thoughtful recommendations. And the cakes? Out of this world! Every single one is handcrafted to perfection -- gorgeously-presented, moist, flavorful, and beautifully-balanced. The textures are spot-on: soft, pillowy sponge layers with delicious fillings. A few personal favorites so far: - Choco-Crunchy Hazelnut: chocolate cake with fluffy caramel filling and delightfully-crunchy caramelized hazelnut! - Honey Cake: many-layered cake with honey and caramel. SOMEONE STOP ME! I'M SUPPOSED TO BE DIETING! - Carrot Cake: WOW! This spice cake is filled with carrots, nuts, raisins, and coconut, interspersed with mascarpone and cream cheese. Beyond scrumptious cakes, Cake n Bake also offers savory and sweet puff pastries, cheesecakes, tiramisu, delightful gift boxes of mini treats, and even a chic assortment of candles. Whether you're picking up a custom cake, ordering cute slices to share, or just indulging in a little self-care dessert moment, Cake n Bake delivers pure joy! Can't wait to try the pear and birdie flavors next time! read more

This pretty new spot has great tasting pastries with quality ingredients! You can literally taste the quality. The ambience is pretty minimalistic, but that is the style now nowadays. There aren't many outlets, but they do have a plug-in for USB charging. The seating close to the street is balcony style, which you can see the ocean sky and the five way traffic intersection, which is pure chaos I got a chance to meet Alex who partially owns the business with his family and he gave me excellent service and even gave me a free drink and samples! Shout out to Alex!! The items I tried: Berry mini cake, carrot cake, tiramisu latte! All of them were good . read more

When tasked with bringing dessert to Thanksgiving dinner with new friends, I knew I wanted to leave this to the professionals. I was so excited to find that Cake N Bake had opened recently in Hermosa Beach! I already had them on my radar because I am obsessed with the look of their honey cake - though that is not what I went with this time. I gave each of my kids the list of cakes to choose from and told them to pick their top three favorites and I would pick the final one! I was surprised that they overlapped two out of three so I made the executive decision to go with chocolate as a compliment to the other items we would be taking. I was so grateful that Cake N Bake are very quick to respond to messages on Yelp so they answered my questions before and after I ordered. I was able to order closer to the date of the holiday too which helped since we needed time to decide what to get. Plus, I love that I could get the cake delivered so I didn't have to run around and be crazy on the morning of Thanksgiving. It showed up in great shape. The Choco-Crunchy Hazelnut Cake was a hit on Thanksgiving! The cake is super moist and I love that the frosting has a good caramel flavor to it that compliments the chocolate cake and feels sturdy holding the cake together. You can tell that the ingredients are better than store-bought cakes based on the texture and flavor. Two days after and I am still enjoying slices of the cake and it still looks pretty and tastes great! When I ordered, I wanted to try the Birdy cake too and split a slice with my daughter. I did not tell her that it was honey because she says she doesn't like honey but she loved this cake! She'd never really had a good ganache before either and she raved about it. I love that they offer their cakes in individual slices and I can't wait to go try the Honey Cake and I am super curious about the Spinach cake. I want to try them both while sitting on their patio with a coffee. read more

Awesome new little bakery with lots of options to choose from. I think their most popular pics are the spinach and honey cakes but we didn't try those. I shared an oreo with my son and my wife got the panna cotta. Both were good and not too sweet. Oreo cookie and creme were light and tasty. The cake itself was soft but a little dry. I wanted to try the chocolate nuttella so will probably be back for that. Everything is around $7 which is on the pricier side for a slice of cake, but I guess you gotta pay to be by the beach. Parking is just in the residential areas around, so you'll probably have to walk a block or 2, like almost everywhere else around the beach. Staff is super welcoming, kind, and helpful which makes the experience that much more enjoyable. Definitely recommend checking it out if you have a sweet tooth like me. I'm sure you'll find something you like. Hope you enjoy! read more

It's so nice to have a new bakery in the neighborhood for a change . There's really nothing else like it around. Sure, parking can be a bit of a pain but just like everywhere else u can make it work the short walk is absolutely worth it. The tres leches is out of this world, and the honey cake is pure magic. A wonderful new addition to the community Service beyond friendly and welcoming read more

Amazing service and a variety of cakes to choose from! Love their website and the fact that you can essentially get small samplers of the cakes and pick up within an hour of placing your order. Quality and attention to detail is noticeable in every pastry. Beautiful location where you can sit on the patio and enjoy an ocean view at the same time! read more

I just bought my birthday cake from here and it was fresh and absolutely delicious! We bought a whole carrot cake and it was moist, super light and fluffy, and filled with lots of carrots, raisins and walnuts. For a small place it had a lot of variety and they bake daily. This is our new go to for cakes! read more

Great is an understatement, you will need to try for yourself. What a location! Literally walking distance from the iconic beach. We tried our favorites and time and time again they did not disappoint. Their honey cake, tiramisu and spinach cakes are addictive, "luckily" I don't live close by otherwise I'd be here every day. Staff is super friendly, place is very clean, modern and simple. read more

While the decor and aesthetic of this corner cake shop is clean and modern, the cake options are sweet and delicious. The fellow behind the counter is friendly and full of baking knowledge. On one visit he threw in a couple of freebies just so we could try them and they were terrific! Standouts are the spinach/cheese danish (more savory-great for breakfast) the carrot cake and the chocolate cherry cake. I love that they sell both whole cakes and individual slices. If you have time, grab a coffee and have a seat on their outdoor patio; it's a great spot to people watch. Or take your treat up to Valley Park or the beach (both a block away) and enjoy a picnic. read more

Finally don't have to drive up to the valley area to get some deliciousness!! This place is fantastic, tried the Spinach Cake, Honey Cake, Chocolate with Nutella(the crisps make this cake special) and all were great. The vibe is also great in here, couple of blocks from the beach. A young gentleman helped me out while I was there and gave A+ service! Welcome to the South Bay, Cake and Bake! read more

The honey cake is the best dessert ever! Already told my husband what I want for my birthday! The cheesecake is light/airy and great. Will definitely be back! read more

Everything was perfect! Great location and service. The moment I walked in I felt welcomed. The ocean view and open doors make you feel so relaxed. The pastries were very fresh and delicious. You can tell they were made with love. I got a lot their chocolate pasties. Perfect place to pick up desserts for a gathering. He made fresh pavlova for us. The most fluffy cheesecake I ever had. I love all the options they have. I will be visiting them soon. read more

Super impressed with Cake N Bake in North Hermosa! I was so sad to lose Starbucks which I liked for the abundance of indoor seating, AC, reliable WiFi, late hours and coffee for $6 and under. Cake N Bake has ALL that plus stunning natural light and incredible cakes. (They're currently giving out free samples too!) Hope you can check them out read more

Incredible cakes! The mascarpone cream cheese icing is soo good. Staff were very helpful with recommendations too! Will definitely be back.

This place has some of the best tasting versions of my favorite cakes. I tried the pavlova, tres leches, and tiramisu. My daughter, who doesn't normally like cake, loved their oreo-based cake. Having them in individual portions is ideal for sampling. I saw many more flavors I am looking forward to. I can't wait to try more cake and delicious coffee drinks in my future! Service was attentive, too. read more

Very helpful with cakes. The Honey cake was delicious I would definitely go back! I also bought small ones to try and they were all delicious! read more

Outstanding service! I have been a customer for many many years! Nora & team have been amazing! This time I got Vanilla Hazelnut Crunch cake! Wow wow! Highly recommend! read more

I was so excited to hear that Cake N Bake opened a location here. I bought the Honey Cake yesterday and WOW it was just PERFECTION!! The presentation of the cake is absolutely adorable and the taste is beyond delicious! Perfect balance of flavors and not too sweet. It was a huge hit with our guests last night, who were also excited to hear that a new Armenian bakery opened here. The storefront is adorable, and the service was great. Sash was so friendly and helpful and made me a top notch iced latte! I'm so happy that I don't have to drive to Glendale or Burbank for delicious desserts or cakes anymore! MUST TRY! read more

I was really excited to try these desserts when my husband brought them home. Unfortunately they were just ok. Maybe slightly under ok. The cheesecake was absolutely tasteless, and the carrot cake frosting tasted like cool whip. I did like the honey cake. But was disappointed overall. Sorry :/ read more

We found this place on Yelp. And this time, my fellow Yelpers truly came through. What a find! Everything we tried was super delicious. Their cakes are SO moist and yummy. You haven't tasted cake this good anywhere, any time. If you think Lido in Manhattan Beach is good, trust me, this place is NEXT LEVEL good. And the service? Equally outstanding. Attentive and kind, the owner was superb! The place also has a great vibe. Very close to the beach. Great water view from the outside seating area. Yes, parking around here is a bit challenging. But it is WELL WORTH driving around the block to find a parking spot. Thank me later. read more

Had the Panna Cotta and it was amazing. I'll definitely try their honey cake next yummm. The cakes can be full size or by the slice and have small portion desserts too. Prices are very reasonable. View is incredible. What I loved most is that it's a family business you'll probably run into the owner or the son or the husband! Very nice people. read more

Nice location with yummy cakes! There are a few tables to have hot drinks and eat cakes there. Free street parking. Very friendly service and good quality product. read more

We tried the carrot cake and it was amazing / They have a number of great cake choices and you can get a good sized piece if you don't need a whole cake / Nice atmosphere and friendly staff read more

Great news, Hermosa! There's a new bakery in town. Cake N Bake is on the corner of Manhattan Ave & Gould. What grabbed my attention at first was the Nespresso logo. For a second there I thought Nespresso was opening a boutique in Hermosa but what I discovered is that Cake N Bake is a bakery that serves Nespresso coffee AND phenomenally tasty cakes that they create locally. Can't say enough good things about their honey cake and chocolate raspberry cake. Let's support this Hermosa family business! read more

Cake and Bake is the best thing to happen to Hermosa since the ocean. The cakes aren't just good--they're architectural achievements. Layers so perfect you could level a shelf with them. The chocolate & cherry, smooth as Sinatra. You can taste the pride in every slice. This isn't some grocery-store sheet cake operation. This is artistry with a spatula. Ignore the parking complaints--great cake requires sacrifice. read more

Amazing cakes and pastries! The honey cake is divine! The spinach cake was a great surprise, very light and refreshing. The owner is very friendly and helpful, making sure to explain the difference between flavors, and customers' favorites. In four years that I've been living here, this is the first time I can say that I enjoyed eating cake. It's not like those cakes that are made almost entirely of whipped cream, it's real cake. read more

Drove passed caught my attention Gotta say the cakes were amazing I tried the honey and spinach cake best I've ever had for the honey and the spinach was a 10/10 experience Definitely recommend and will be back very soon! read more

My wife, Eleanor, stopped in to this brand new shop in our neighborhood in North Hermosa located at the Five Corners. This spot has been empty ever since they tore down the old building a put up a new one so we were eagerly anticipating the opening of this new shop. My wife said the owner was super nice. She mentioned that he is Armenian which prompted me to ask if he is from the Southbay or Glendale (quite a long way!). She said the latter and that the family has a shop up there and that this is their second location. She came home with a few goodies, including a small cup sized berry cake -- my wife knows I am a huge fan of the berry cake at Lido Bakery in Manhattan Beach so I was eager to try it. But for a variety of reasons, I didn't actually get a chance to try it until it had been sitting in the fridge for two days. Two days old and never worse for the wear, it was amazing!!! I was in awe. The perfect ratio of buttery cake, to fresh berries, to delicious, whipped cream. Shocked at how incredible this little piece of cake was, I went to their website and read their story. What a great story. I hope they do well in our little town of Hermosa and that our neighbors discover this little gem. Now I have to go try their Honey Cake too which looks incredible. I will update my review after I try that one and maybe a few others (pear cake, spinach cake). What a terrific addition to our neighborhood. Thank you for venturing all the way down to Hermosa Beach to open up your second shop! read more

Fantastic cup cakes , and the latte was really great too. Hope to get a chance to try the full size cakes soon

I've been to Cake N Bake a number of times now and happy they finally set up shop in Hermosa Beach! Their Tiramisu Iced Latte is perfect for getting the morning started and I usually grab a slice of cake along with my order for dessert later for the night. I really like their birdie cake and carrot cake. The shop is in a beautiful corner location with plenty of outdoor patio space overlooking an amazing ocean view if you want to hang out and catch a nice breeze. The staff is super friendly and I felt very welcomed while there. I've been there a few times a week now since they've opened, including the weekends and I've never had any issues with street parking which was usually plentiful. So happy to have this cake and coffee gem as part of the Hermosa Beach community! read more

Great taste but the berries and cream cake was dry. I hope the next cake I purchase isn't as dry .

Cake N Bake is an amazing bakery with various kinds of cakes, cheesecakes, pastries, and many other delicious baked goods that will definitely put a smile on your face and your tastebuds will thank you for it as well. Amazing service and recommendations by the wonderful staff along with a beautiful layout where you can sit and enjoy all that they have to offer! I would definitely recommend coming to Cake N Bake if you are in Manhattan beach or if you are in Sun Valley. read more
