Oh the cakes here are good. I will be brief but I had a pice of a cake from here that had some fresh fruit and I was in heaven. It was like a ambrosia cake or something, oh my god I love it. read more

Stopped by this location today to check it out. I noticed they won a baking championship on the food network. They had a very small selection of baked goods so I got the carrot cake which was fantastic. Great presentation and flavor. My only feedback is it's very very expensive. $8 for a cupcake size cake. I do love to shop local business but I'm also on a budget. Check it out and support local businesses. read more

I can't recommend Cakes by Karl enough! Karl did an incredible job with our wedding cake and our special mini cake order for our family dinner the night before. As a big fan of Food Network's Halloween Baking Championship, I was thrilled to support a local winner, and he did not disappoint! The cake tasting experience was amazing. Karl offered a variety of flavors to try, making it hard to choose just two for our wedding cake. We ended up ordering mini cake samples for our family dinner so that everyone could try a few more flavors. Unfortunately, a little mishap occurred when ants took over the mini cakes while we were out to dinner. But Karl really went above and beyond--he quickly stepped in to help and delivered a fresh batch of mini cakes to our wedding the very next day. It's rare to see that kind of customer care! The wedding cake itself was a masterpiece. It looked just like the inspiration pictures I had shared with Karl, and it tasted even better! We chose a tier of vanilla cake with strawberries and a chocolate tier for the top--both were absolute hits. I plan to return to Cakes by Karl for many anniversaries to come, and I can't wait to order slices to enjoy with my husband every year. Thank you, Karl, for making our special day even sweeter!

So let's get into this cake. I was throwing my bro in law a party for his bday and a girlfriend asked me to do the cake as she wanted to use Karl. I agreed and let her order the cake. This cake was amazing. It was white cake with fresh strawberries with whip cream in the inside. Made the cake a jazz theme with fire dept as he is a fire captain. Everything on the cake was edible and the service I heard was great. The cake was delicious too. Everyone loved the cake so I needed to do a review as it was so nice I gave out karl info to so many people. If you are looking for a cake, use Karl. read more

Tried another dessert from Cakes by Karl, I got the Mango Mousse cake available at Berkeley Bowl. Brought it to a Pickelball (fastest growing sport in the USA) happy-hour function and it was a smash and not a dink! The cake was light, moist, not overly sweet with plenty of mango flavor. Refrigerate until serving. read more

Beautiful cake and customizable options. We ordered their coffee cake. My family wasn't too happy with the flavor. We couldn't really detect the taste of the coffee. The cake was moist with elegant decoration. They have a nice shop with some variety of desserts. We may try a different cake flavor but will probably order by slice to sample before buying another whole cake. read more

If you have a sweet tooth, please do stop into Cakes by Karl! My best friend is getting married and we were looking for places to do her cake tasting and my boyfriend recommended this place, so I knew I had to try it. We stopped in and left with this delicious treat. It's the perfect amount of sweetness and the berries on top make it really refreshing. This is probably one of my favorite places to get red velvet cake now. I know her cakes will be different for the wedding, but if they taste anything like this I will be frequenting that dessert table all night. read more

The cream to cake ratio was 50/50. There was so much butter cream it was hard for all our guest and myself to eat. I ordered the cake for my 1 year olds bday. It also had a hearty price tag as well. Quite disappointed as we couldn't even finish half the cake with 30 people. Everyone tried to scrape off the butter cream to salvage what they could eat. read more

We sampled the cake flavors by taking a variety of cupcakes to the assisted living facility Cogir. My aunt selected the devils food with salted caramel. The cake we ordered had cream cheese filling with the salted caramel and buttercream icing on the outside. The cake was not only beautiful but it was delicious beyond expectation. The buttercream was melt in your mouth with just the right amount of sweetness. Definitely the best cake we have had since Katrina Rozelle closed. read more

I found Cakes by Karl as my family and I were driving home and happened to notice his pink corner bakery and had just left a very dissapointing tasting elsewhere. The welcoming and clean environment of his shop already had me feeling positive about stopping to find out more about who Karl was and what he could offer as I needed to find a baker to make my daughter's quinceañera cake. After meeting Karl that day and leaving his bakery knowing we were definitely in good hands due to his warmth, humor, and professionlism, he did not disappoint during the tasting and execution of the cake and desserts ordered. His flavor combinations are outstanding and has a range to choose from. He ia easy to work with and makes you deel at ease. His price points are competitive and better than surrounding bakeries as are his cakes and desserts. My family will continue to be customers of Karl! If you're looking for a great baker, hire Karl!!!! read more

Very yummy and honestly didn't expect to find such impressive cakes in Vallejo. I definitely recommend this place.

A little late to review but I asked Karl to make me a small birthday cake based on two pics and a description of what I wanted and it came out sooo beautiful. I loved the whole real flowers look on cakes. The inside was red velvet, one of my fav flavors that I know they do well. It also tastes great even after freezing! Tall, moist, richly flavored, and reasonably priced. I was even worried I asked too last minute but he assured me he could make this cake in time (normally it's best to place an order at least a week prior to the b-day event). read more

Been wanting to visit this local gem. Cakes by Karl made a name for himself from winning a famous bake off competition #HalloweenBakingChampionship of ⁦@FoodNetwork⁩! So of course, I'm an immediate local fan and must support. For my birthday this year I opted to try the Japanese Cotton Cheesecake. OMGodddddd! It is heavenly delicious. Super light but lots of flavor. I mean WOW. So, yes, I highly recommend this bakery. I also tried the Red Velvet cupcake. Scrumptious! I devoured that cupcake LOL! 8/3/21 Update: I tried the Salted Caramel cupcake with my sis. Jaw dropping delicious! The icing (on the mocha side) was so creamy with a hint of salted caramel. I think this could be my #1 choice of cupcake. But then again, I haven't tried all the flavors yet. I will definitely return to Cakes by Karl. I will definitely pick-up more desserts here for my friends & family. read more
