I enjoyed it in the parking lot and it was worth every bite. I also was going to save the snickerdoodle one for my husband, but decided to eat that one too, and it was delicious.! I am impressed every time I come here and I got to meet Mike from the Instagram videos. Excellent job everyone Can't wait to come back for my six pack!

A Little Peek Before Dinner... Because Dessert Has No Rules!…read more We were headed to a birthday dinner right next door and decided to stop in for a little peek because, let's be honest... who doesn't need a sweet treat before AND after dinner?! Priorities! I didn't actually purchase anything this time around, but my sister did a little cupcake damage and picked up a Blueberry Cupcake, Banana Pudding, and Red Velvet Cupcake. She was also sweet enough to grab me an Oatmeal Cream Pie, so technically I still got dessert. Oatmeal Cream Pie Rating: 7.8/10 It was pretty delicious, although definitely a little sweeter than my usual preference. BUT here's the secret: put it in the fridge and eat it the next day. Something about that chilled texture made it even better! The only downside is that the cupcakes are definitely on the pricier side at roughly $7 each, but there were SO many flavors that I wish I had enough room to try everything. Service was very nice and friendly, and it's definitely an easy pick-up-and-go type of spot when that sweet tooth starts calling. I came in just to "take a peek" and somehow still walked out with dessert. Happy sweets!

I was on my way to my brother's lunch party. I wanted to surprise everyone with some baked goods. I…read moresearched on Yelp to find the best bakery in Inland Empire. Lucky to have found Kape Republik (KR). It's a Filipino bakery located at New Haven Market Place in Ontario. What a simply pretty lavender bakery shop! My eyes lit up like a little kid in a candy shop. Colorful crinkles, beautiful cakes, warm savory baked goods, and so much more. Condiment and utensil station available. Limited inside stool seating. One all gender restroom for customer use only. There is even a space for business cards to be shared. Cool! Kid you not, I spent about an hour here mesmerized by the goodies and taking photos. At the time, I did not know I was speaking with the owner, Karla. She was super nice and friendly. Thank you Karla for your amazing service, our wonderful conversation, and the sweet complimentary treat. I appreciate it. What I got: 1 Biscoff Crinkle - I tried to compare it to Biscoff cookie, not bad 1 Buko (Coconut) Crinkle - moist, needs more pandan coconut flavor 2 Cookies & Cream - deliciously good, my #3 favorite! 1 Guava Crinkle - decent, not overly sweet 1 Mango Crinkle - surprisingly fruity in mango flavor, best fruit crinkle so far 3 S'mores Crinkle - good, but was a bit sweet for me 3 Ube Crinkle - soft and chewy with deep ube flavor, top-notch #1! 2 Baked Turon - didn't get to try, will need to buy again 1 Cheese Roll - didn't get to try, will need to buy again 2 Chocolate Cigar - outside looks pretty, but a bit dry on the inside 1 Guava Cheese Roll - amazing, not overly sweet, my #2 favorite! 1 Mango Pie - I didn't care for mango puree filling, I prefer real mangos 2 Ube Brownie - slightly disappointed as it was a tad dry, but good ube flavor 5 Halo Halo Shake - huge cup with lots of good ingredients, but not sweet at all which was a shocker because all other halo halo I've had in the past have been on the sweeter side Yes, it was a huge list for a first time visitor. It will not be my last. Definitely be back for more Ube Crinkles and Guava Cheese Rolls. Look forward to trying their aromatic coffee, baked turon, cheese roll, ube flan, cakes, savory empanadas, and other exciting baked goods in my future visits. Highly recommend KR for ube connoisseurs and/or anyone who loves Filipino sweet and savory baked goods. Come get you some goodness! Btw, there is a 3% credit card service charge. If you don't want to pay for the extra charge, bring CASH!

Their purple ube white chocolate chip cookies are very popular, but I the s'mores cookie. It was so delicious and not over the sweet. The store is very cute and cozy and even has a little small table chairs for kids to sit at. I don't live in Ontario, but when I come out for my daughter skis, I'm definitely going back to get another one of those cookies.

She made 12 beautiful vanilla cupcakes with pink and green frosting, and they were perfect. The cupcakes were moist, the frosting was sweet but not overly sweet, and they were a big hit with both kids and adults. What meant the most to me was her willingness to help during a stressful moment. Her kindness and professionalism did not go unnoticed. I can't thank her enough for stepping in and helping make my daughter's birthday special. Highly recommend and will absolutely be ordering from her again!

Specifically, the slice of tiramisu for the birthday boy wasn't available so in a haste, I ordered the full tiramisu in the display case. The tres leches I ordered wasn't in stock and was replaced by vanilla rolls. I read so many positive reviews, I assumed any cake should be good. Sadly, the vanilla roll was inedible. The cake part was dense and dry. It seemed like the type of cake they'd use for tres leches but of course, without the milk which made it taste really bad. The red velvet was equally dry and wasn't made with cream cheese frosting. It was bland and actually tasted like cheap ingredients. The worst part was the $30 tiramisu for birthday boy. It had the same dense and dry sponge cake and was nothing like traditional tiramisu. I was really embarrassed and we couldn't finish it. I don't write these reviews lightly but I was extremely disappointed, will not return, and will not recommend.

I'm excited to find a bakery that makes haupia treats, AND IT'S DELICIOUS!…read more This is not your typical bakery. They serve Filipino and Hawaiian influenced desserts and snacks. The way it works is you place your order online during the week and choose which weekend to pick up your order, Eastvale on Saturdays or Eastvale and West Covina on Sundays. They're closed during the week. It's not a storefront like I initially thought; it's a house! We ordered the Okinawan Sweet Potato Haupia Mac Nut Pie and the Kona Mud Pie. The haupia pie reminded me of the one my uncle used to make in Hawaii. It's very similar. It's a macadamia nut shortbread crust topped with the purple Okinawan Sweet potato, then another layer of the haupia on top! I can eat this entire pan by myself. I honestly don't want to share it. ;) The Kona Mud Pie should be called the Kona DREAM Pie! This was so good! It had just the right amount of coffee flavor, and the chocolate cookie crust really added to this dessert. Again, MINE! I don't want to share this one either! It's light and refreshing on a hot day if you eat it like an ice cream pie! The owners were so sweet and easy to work with. I highly recommend this bakery! It's truly a treat!

The host had organized everything with the staff. The store was kind enough to teach our class after store hours. Thank you staff you rock. They have candy mold, chocolate melts in many colors, cake toppers, an array of cookie cutters. I even bought bulk pretzel sticks. With the clear packaging I could see that the pretzels were in perfect condition none were cracked for the treats that I wanted to make for a Halloween camping event. Because I don't live in this area I made quite the purchase that included the tools to make the cake pops we made in class! The instructor and assistant, Danielle and Vivian were outstanding and patient with our group of ladies. We got to meet Wendy another team member of Pila's and also got to meet the wonder. Great customer service with each of them. I would love to take a look at some of the other classes they offer! I would definitely make the drive. The vibe in this store is awesome, yes I will be back. Oh, and they offer tasty and beautiful candied apples! I forgot to take pics. Trust me they're pretty delicious looking!

I ordered a cake two months in advance, and I'm very disappointed I had reached out the day before I was supposed to pick up the cake and she said that I was able to pick it up anytime I want. When I confirmed a time and a date she never responded And after that I sent about 10 text message and 10 phone calls and I never got to respond. I don't understand why she does this , people depend on her to order a cake, I've called so many bakeries and everybody's booked! If you didn't bake my cake, just tell me don't dodge my calls and dodge my text messages. Now I'm forced to get a cake from Albertson's because I wasn't able to provide a nice cake for a birthday party while everyone is book in a 30 mile radius. I have ordered one cake from her before, and although her cake does not even taste good it's very dry and taste like cement, I wanted to place an order because she was very cheap and able to get as close as the photo she can for the price she charge . I guess I've learned that you get what you've paid for ! I have provided screenshots of the text messages read more
