Definitely our new favorite place for a good cake at a reasonable price.

She was always on top of my questions and requests, never did she leave me unanswered. I reached out to several places about a vintage heart cake, she said she was available and I sealed the deal w her price point which was very fair. I was also looking for another cake, a 2-tiered mermaid cake but the time was going to be strained. I sent her a picture of an inspo cake, she accepted my order for the second cake and it was amazing! She sent me finished pics but in person even more gorgeous. It was packaged well and it transported smoothly. The taste was also amazing, everything was made from scratch, it was so delicious. I received so many compliments on the visual and taste. The cookies and cream cake was popular at the party, everyone loved the cookies and cream.

While on a drive between Monterey and San Jose we needed to make a quick stop for coffee and gnosh…read moreand so we tried the Gourmet Central Bakery. It is tucked in the corner of a small shopping center in the town of Prunedale, near the intersection of Highways 156 and 101. While the outside is nondescript, the bakery itself is beautiful on the inside and the selection of baked goods is extensive and spectacular. So many unique and tempting creations. It is difficult to choose one thing to order because there are so many that look amazing. We tried what they call a roulette which is a round layered pastry that is loaded with flavor. It was absolutely delicious. Not too sweet but just right. The disappointing factor at Gourmet Central Bakery is the coffee. It was incredible weak and flavorless. Not sure if it was the beans they use or the mix of water to coffee, but it was hugely disappointing. It did not compliment whatsoever their incredible baked goods. I hope they will focus on providing beverages that match the quality and creativity of their pastries. I would say check out GCB for all of their incredible baked goods, just don't order coffee until they make some changes. Their baked goods deserve, as do customers, a satisfying coffee pairing.

Have gone there years for their amazing gift shop. The nostalgic toy area is so fun to look through but all the other things they have in the back room are beautifully displayed and reasonably priced. Very excellent fresh veggies, and other condiments that they have for sale. But the pies are off the Chart. The fruit pies are well worth the 25 or so dollars they cost they're huge. They're deep dish they're fresh the delicious the large size pot pies are amazing but I love it when I can get the miniatures for $7.95 for one. They are just adorable. They heat up well and they taste delicious. All around really beautiful place. If you go at the end of the summer, they have all you can pick flower days for like five dollars for all the flowers you could pick and they're absolutely beautiful they have tours for little kids and at Halloween they have beautiful pumpkins that you can go out and pick yourself for an amazing experience and memory with your kids.

He got me strawberry shortcake, horchata, snickers, raspberry lemon, and a mystery flavor because the other ones I wanted were sold out. All the macarons were lacking in favor, some of them are stale,the snickers doesn't taste like snickers it only taste like peanut butter, the strawberry shortcake lacks on flavor, and the horchata has too much cinnamon and it was overwhelming. There was little to no filling to each of the macarons as well. Anyways, we give it a shot and didn't really like it very much. The only macaron my partner likes was the raspberry lemon.

You can taste the freshness, and they add a lot to the overall experience. Both the fish and asada tacos were packed with flavor. The onion and cilantro toppings were the perfect additions, and I loved the purple cabbage on the fish taco for the extra crunch and freshness. Honestly, you can't go wrong with either option. The Chile verde burrito, though, was my favorite. The Chile verde was tender, juicy, and full of flavor. It's also a bigger burrito, stuffed with rice and beans, making it a very satisfying meal. The tortilla isn't homemade, but it still held everything together nicely and tasted great. Overall, a great spot with strong flavors and quality ingredients. I'd definitely come back, and the Chile verde burrito is something I could see myself getting all the time!

I'm always impressed with the large variety of options that the bakery has. And while I haven't tried them all, every single one that I have had has been absolutely amazing! I would have to say that my top pick however would be their Tres Leches cups. It is absolutely divine and is hands down the best Tres Leches I have ever had no contest. They also do wedding cakes. I had my wedding this year in Monterey and they were able to provide an absolutely beautiful two layered cake with a perfectly spiced carrot cake as the bottom layer and a wonderfully moist Tres Leches cake as the top layer.
