    Such an incredible person that was able to accommodate all my needs. This was a gift given to me for my birthday & I was able to pick out what I wanted that was followed completely! I absolutely loved it -- it was so fun & whimsical, which is exactly what I wanted & fits my personality plus our theme perfectly! Honestly, I'm surprised Sydney doesn't have chains of stores because it was completely stunning! The only issue I had was not having more of it. Absolutely delicious!!! Thank you!

    Coconut Birthday Cake

    I contacted Sydney & she replied about a week later letting me know she had one spot left & could make my birthday cake! I was so excited!!!! The cake came out more beautiful than what it looks like in the picture. It tasted even better which I was a little nervous about because I asked her for gluten & dairy free coconut cake. I will be ordering all of my future cakes with her!

    The best mama owned bakery! Everything she makes is pure perfection! I have used her many times over the years and will use her for all celebrations in the future.

    1 year cake to mimic our wedding cake!

    I worked with this company for my wedding and 1 year anniversary cake. They were amazing each time and the cake is delicious!!! We wanted simple and modern and was not disappointed! I will 100% use again for the next big event.

    What Will Baby Bee? Cake Sydney Specialty!
    Brianna W.

    Sydney makes not only delicious cakes but turns them into works of art. I had the pleasure of having her create a special "What will Baby Bee?" Creation for my gender reveal. What I picked up was absolutely amazing and can't thank her enough for making my day extra sweet. Support your local small businesses and have Sydney create a one of a kind masterpiece!

    We have ordered multiple cakes and other baked goods from Sydney. Each creation is as beautiful as it is tasty. I've referred friends to her and they've had the same friendly and fabulous experience that I had. Support this small business!

    Such darling Texas sugar cookies that were snatched up very quickly by my guests!
    Anthony A.

    I have ordered quite a few treats from Sydney and each time, they've been decadent and detail-oriented. I have a gluten allergy and Sydney is always willing to modify a recipe to create something yummy for me, which I appreciate. We had a Western-themed party and the sugar cookies that we ordered were the talk of the party! They were delicious and gluten free! I can't wait till my next party so I can order From scratch baked goods again.

    Boho Taurus cupcakes
    Christy H.

    I literally just created a yelp account so I could give Sydney 5 stars! And also to share my amazing cupcakes!!!!! I have placed 2 orders so far and both have been INCREDIBLE! I have just let Sydney come up with the creations and just gave her an idea! She's so sweet and too talented for words! My favorite part about hosting parties now is ordering cupcakes!!!!! Thank you so much Sydney! My Taurus cupcakes were almost toooooooooo awesome to eat!

    Nursing themed cake and sweets
    Reyna L.

    Sydney did such a good job! From beginning to end (pick up) she was such a sweetheart and communicated all the needed details thoroughly. Everyone loved all the sweets we got from her. People couldn't stop raving about the design and taste. We will be ordering from her again. Thanks again!

    The top of our cake with beach chairs, sand and flip flops. Wish we would have gotten a better picture
    Jeffrey C.

    Our wedding cake was amazing thanks to Sydney's dedication to detail and creativity! She created a wonderful two tier beach themed wedding cake for my wife and I that we could not have been happier with. It fit the theme of our wedding perfectly with beach chairs and flip flops on the top and she even snuck a little surfboard on the back so I felt like I had a say in things lol. We chose the nutty professor and blue berry cheese cake for our two flavors. I don't know how to explain how good it was so I'll just say it tasted like a slice of heaven. She was so helpful throughout the whole process and we loved the tastings!! I'm super pumped that we have some left over for our one year anniversary and can't wait to eat it. Thanks again Sydney!

    Sydney thank you so much for the beautiful and yummy cake you made for my son Diego. It exceeded all expectations.
    Maria G.

    What a wonderful job. The Lego Birthday cake tasted as good as it looked. My son loved it and all of the parents at the party were commenting on how great it looked. Sydney exceed all of my expectations and I will definitely be back. Thank You

Staff were unfriendly, avoided eye contact, and there's very little effort to make customers feel welcome. The decision to use a kiosk for drink orders is a real misstep. A small, independent café lives and dies by the personal connections it builds with regulars. A screen can't replace that warmth or build loyalty. If they want to survive long-term, investing in genuine hospitality would make a world of difference. Overall, it's the service that's the standout issue here, and until that changes, it's hard to recommend.

    THIS ONE STAR REVIEW IS ONLY FOR THE WAY THE LINE IS SET UP HERE. I love everything else about…read moreCream Pan, but honestly, the line to select your pastry and the checkout is so UN-USER-FRIENDLY. The self service, pre-made lunch bentos, sandos and sushi area is fine, but once you need assistance from a worker, it starts getting ridic. How so? You speak to whomever is attempting to assist you OVER and UNDER a twenty-four year old counter area that holds the pastries and/or through a tiny hole in the cabinets. You can hardly make eye contact with the person, because all the pastry is in between where you are standing and where they are standing. Some people are tall, some short, but regardless, there is NO WAY to have a conversation with them. They are trying to see what exactly you are possibly pointing to in the case, but as noted, you're talking thru a case of pastry. This is also true at the Fountain Valley location, where they only have a very small counter to check out with many people standing in line trying to have someone collect their order from the back. Maybe also ask WHY there is never any KINAKO donuts? I was there at 11 am and I got THE LAST ONE! If these are so popular, why don't you make enough to sell throughout the day? Every other time I've been here, you were already SOLD OUT! SMH HAS ANYONE HERE SEEN THE SELF SERVICE process at 85 degrees? All their pastry is individually wrapped and you calmly walk through the SELF SERVICE pastry area with a tray and tongs to help yourself. If you'd like to pass the person in front of you, it's easy and doable because there is plenty of room and it doesn't make anyone feel like you are taking "cuts". Once you get to the end, the cashier totals up your tray and puts it in a bag or box for you. Done & Done. Let me reiterate that your pastry and food are all above par and I know you've been in business since 2002 and let me commend you for 24 years of service, but it's time to CHANGE IT UP to a more user friendly process. It's not appealing to anyone in this busy day and age that there is a line out the door, ONLY BECAUSE THE PROCESS INSIDE NEEDS HELP! It's also more sanitary that the pastry and breads are wrapped ahead of time as I saw a fly inside the case today. Ugh.

    We bought 1 dozen cream puffs and we barely had 4 left because we couldn't stop stuffing our faces…read moreduring the ride home. 75 cents each. The cream puff custard is smooth and not too sweet. I am glad it is not whipped cream filling. The puff shell is simple and elegant not crunchy or stale (like some other places). Service is fast and friendly. We will be running back next week. We also got a bunch of other items, but haven't tried them yet. Store is small and clean. They accept credit cards with $1 fee

They sell by 75 cents each which is good. Parking a little tight but if you go on weekday it's not too bad. The lady who greeted me wasn't too friendly she literally started me down and looked like she just wanted to rush me out. Also guys they take cash only but if card use they charge $1 fee. So she took my order and went next door to charge my card but I didn't know next door was a coffee place guess they link together. Funny thing was she didn't smile and the man who came after me she greeted him with a smile because they are of the same ethnicity. Language wasn't an issue here but to stare at customer like that I'm not coming back there ever again. Even though the cream puffs were so good very soft and not too sweet. I always go by first experience and impression. I will be looking forward other bakery's in Garden Grove.
