We bought one for mother's day this year & we found 2 hair strings in it!! It was definitely not pleasant I don't like having hair in my cake... please wear hair nets.. read more

I went in to buy a cake for my daughter and it was dry inside no moisture in the cake or spongy just dry. I was disappointed in the outside frosting too had a bitter after taste. It was a bit pricey and for it to taste like that pretty disappointing. The worker was chatting in front of us instead of helping us and when she did she seemed a bit condescending and with an attitude. I decided to ignore it because we were having a wonderful day but well the cake was a big let down read more

ZERO STARS FOR THIS LOCATION !!! Came in on a Monday for lunch and picked up some cupcakes, a slice of choco-flan and a slice of the tres leches mocha cake. There wasn't much foot traffic so I'm not sure how busy it gets. Maybe they have old baked goods because they just don't sell!!!! My daughter had a red velvet cupcake and it was stale and old. My boyfriend had a cookies n cream cupcake and it also tasted stale and old, especially the frosting. I didn't even want to trust the choco-flan at this point but I still did and it was also stale like it had been in the fridge for days. We had to throw everything away because it was old and stale. This location has gone downhill. I always go to the Norwalk one and haven't had any of these experiences there. The owner needs to check up on this location more often because it's not fair for us consumers to trust and spend our $ here when we literally have to just trash the food because it is inedible. What a waste!!!! Luckily it didn't make any of us sick!!! Don't risk yourself and just don't come here!!! read more

More like a -5 star! This cake was ordered for a baby reveal party, while serving the cake this huge cockroach made an "appearance " for sure! The host was filled with embarrassment and disappointment. This was an incredible important gathering. We returned to the store the next day and even after showing clear proof if the disgusting cockroach appearance , the staff refused to provide us with a refund claiming the cake should have been brought back into the store for a replacement! How do you replace a special order for a special event! Please avoid any embarrassment and don't order any cakes from this location! read more

Candle Light Bakery - Hello kitty cake - Bakeries Near Me - Lynwood, California

Horrible experience, my family always get cakes from here the mil hojas cake and its been good every other time. On this particular occassion (yesterday) we found 1 hair inside the cake but closer to the edge of the cake so we thought no big deal just clear it out cut the piece around it to make sure we clear that piece out. Continue to serve the guests and not even 5 minutes later 2 people come back saying they pulled hair from their slices of cake (closer to the center of the cake). Just a heads up for everyone coming here if anything pops up in your cake per their rules 1. Take an embarrassing picture for PROOF in the middle of the party while serving guests. 2. Bring in at the very least half the cake. Extremely disappointed will never come back here again. I strongly urge everyone to go to Porto's and avoid these types of places that do everything but own their mistakes. My family is taking their business elsewhere. I would give half a star if yelp would allow. read more

Candle Light Bakery - Center and upper part of cake in the trash. - Bakeries Near Me - Lynwood, California

I ordered a cake for a very special occasion, showed them a picture, and asked if they could make a cake with the same design and color of the cake I showed them (without the part circled in black). They said yes without any hesitation. Fast forward to when I picked up the cake, I couldn't believe it. See the difference yourself (pics are attached). Kimberly was a bit rude and also let us know they can try to fix it (the top part) but that it would be my responsibility if it slid off because of the cream used. I said no because I can either walk away with a cake (even if it's not what I ordered), or I can potentially walk away with a cake that has cream sliding off of it (imagine how that would look). Manager later called me to hear me out, but ultimately refused to refund me anything, and basically backed up their work. He felt the color mostly matched the one in the picture and as far as design, he said they had offered to fix it. I explained the condition that was placed if it became worse after they tried fixing it, but it didn't make a difference. Moving forward my family and I will never return to this location again. read more

Candle Light Bakery - I loved my wedding cake it was beautiful and delicious. White bread and strawberries. - Bakeries Near Me - Lynwood, California

I have been coming to Candle Light Bakery since 2012 and always has been my go to bakery wether it be custom order or a last minute birthday cake surprise. They never disappointed me until the turn of 2023. The prices are just outrageous. They wanted to charge me $65 for a 10" round cake with an edible print out placed on top and with fruit and custard in the center. I was so thrown off by that I told the girl who was helping me that I was not going to pay ALL THAT for sliced strawberries in the center. Whats even even worse is that they charge more when it's just a single fruit rather than half of strawberries and half of whatever other fruit they offered. Since I requested the cake portion to be marble. The only fruit that sounded remotely enticing to go with this was all strawberries and custard but not for almost $70. That's crazy!!!! The cake was supposed to be a joke for a friend hosting a football game viewing party at her house who disliked the team her beloved 49ers were playing against. Gives a whole other meaning to, el chiste sito me salió caro. Edit: That day was a doozy just like the deal I got on this cake too. I'm taking my business elsewhere sorry candlelight but you blew it. read more

Customer SERVICE is the worst !!! The person with all those piercings and colored hair should NOT be working there! I bought a cake and two slices of cake and she did not want to give me two spoons. I was going upstairs to get something to eat and she said we couldn't leave the cake for over 30 minutes. I hadn't even touched the cake The vanilla cake was dry. Definitely don't recommend. The tres leches slice was very good read more

Yesterday's was my moms birthday . I hurd that these cakes were amazing so I decided to give them a whirl. I wasn't sure if I had to order one on the phone ? Or if they had any already made so I decided to show up and look for myself . I was told that they only had a few selection cakes to choose from . I was looking for a small cake that fed 3-4 people . I didn't want any of those because it wasn't what I was looking for , so she offered to customize . I chose the color, filling and bread and lettering . HOWEVER, when I went up to pick up the cake , all I received was a BLANK cake with lettering on card bord with a little decoration on the lower part of the cake with NO lid over it . Considering that we are in a pandemic, I don't think it's very sanitary to be giving these cakes with no lids . I asked if they had any lids and she seemed she was a little panicky since there was a line and said they ran out so she cut the top off. Birthdays can be a very special moment for someone. Especially after a tough year . On a positive note: the cake itself was delicious, airy and not to sweet . Will I come back to this establishment? Probably not . It was a SMALL super simple cake for 45$. !?!?!?!?! And the lady next to me got something more cuter for that price ! And BIGGER! They ripped me off. I just mentioned I wasn't going to come back and left . But the cakes do taste good lol :/ . Who knows maybe I'll come back in a year or 2. Lol read more

Would recommend going to the Norwalk location instead. I messed up and thought that they had the same customer service as the one in Norwalk. The cake itself was great, can't complain! You would think the employees were more knowledgeable and helpful but instead what u get, is someone who hates their job and has no energy or expertise to suggest different ideas and options. The music was loud and there was no one in the store when I walked in. I had no budget as far as my daughters birthday cake. I ordered cupcakes and they sold me tiny little cupcakes I could of bought at Walmart for half the price. The year before I got such beautiful cake, cupcakes, and service. Maybe they should fire and hire new employees that aren't rude. The girl that "helped me" look so annoyed that I would go and spend money at their store... she kept telling me everything was extra and I kept saying okay that's fine I'll pay... lol like wtf when my husband picked up the cake they were rude to him too! Lol it's wild!!! read more

Very fancy bakery! I had the ganache cake and it was super sweet! I love their macarons as well.

I don't have much to say, but overall I just can't give this place any more stars. The first time I went for a cake pickup, there was a line of about 20+ people for placing an order and order pickup. There was only one person assisting the people in line while about 6 other employees were behind the counter. Aside from the service being sub par, the cakes are just average IMO. There's nothing special or unique about the flavor compared to other bakeries. The tres leches was the only good thing on one occasion that we went. We ordered a marble cake on one occasion and it was just vanilla and the middle portion of strawberries and bananas just wasn't good. Hopefully I can update this review in the future. read more

Horrible service ! Fucked up the cake not the color I was asking for needed the cake done by 11 then went and still tried to fix the cake when it was for a surprise. The head of the department in the doesn't come out and talk to customers knowing they fucked up . This location in Lynwood is shit. read more

They have the best cakes my favorite and so far my entire family can agreed the tres leches cake is the best! Not to sweet not to wet and the bread so soft it's just the greatest! It's a one stop shop they have cute decorations and candles and signs! The staff is great not one thing could I possible complain about. read more

Used to be great customer I was in today and the girls were laughing that they charged a customer twice once that customer left. They were too into their gossip to actually start filling orders. The girls charging had a horrible attitude when I asked why it was taking so long to hand 1 macaron that I ordered. 3 girls one blond were just chatting letting customers wait a few customers left due to the wait. The girl charging just began to yell at me for interrupting their important conversation. Defiantly not going back horrible service read more

Yesterday I went to this bakery for the first time I bought a mocha tres leches cake($43dollars) and it was not good at all, super dry a tres leches is supposed to be moist it was flavorless completely bland none of my family liked it I do not recommend this cake. read more

I have been buying cakes from here for over 17 years now, unfortunately the service has gone down for the worst with rude staff and unwilling to help. Prices have gone up and I never complain because I genuinely enjoyed their cakes but have noticed they gotten me a few times with wrong filling or size. Unfortunately due to the poor customer service from the rude staff I and a few family friends have received recently, I will no longer order my cakes from here. If you want to be treated like trash then this is the place for you to go. I will take my money elsewhere! Don't recommend this place. read more

I bought a tres leche cake. Im not going to lie, it was delicious but the fact that we a found a whole chewed gum inside the cake really made me write this review. I called the next morning to make a complaint, all they said was "sorry" and that they couldn't give me a refund unless I brought the whole cake back to the store. Do they really think I was going to know that the person making the cake was going to chew out a piece of gum ¿ Keep in mind that this place is a bit high on prices, and to find a gum in my cake was very unprofessional. Im not ever wasting my money at this store again. Unfortunately, the manager didn't believe me and wasn't a help AT ALL. read more

I've tried ordering a cake on two different occasions to be given excuses on not being able to make it to my liking. First time I wanted a small black cake with red dripping, they didn't have the red dripping. I asked if they could order it since we had 3 weeks before I needed the cake. They said they couldn't. The second time I wanted a simple black small cake with 3 fondant letters on top. They said they didn't work with fondant. Very disappointed. read more

Complety overpriced got a half a sheet for $70.00 just for a fruit on top cake. If I'm going to pay anything over 50.00 I rather get a custom made... my fault, didn't know it was a small cake. When I placed the phone order the girl sounded like she was confused with explaining the size and prices.. when I arrived for pick up and noticed the cake was small for 70.00 I questioned them on size and prices and they looked surprised,confused, nervous. Honestly you can get a fruit cake at a market without paying 70.00... learned my lesson not going back again. read more

This bakery has always been one of my favorite when it comes to cakes. My family and I used to order cakes all the time from this bakery until their prices went up. On Monday it was my father's birthday. I decided to stop by and grab him a cake after such a long time without buying from this bakery. The cake was good but the fruit on top was not as fresh as it used to be. Bummer! I had been craving the fresh fruit on top. The pineapple was already shrinking. Who knows how long this cake had been sitting in their fridge. read more
