    Ivory hosted me and 11 of my closest girlfriends for a cake-decorating party for my birthday, and she did not disappoint! She walked us through every step of stacking and decorating our cakes, and was incredibly attentive, especially to those of us who needed a little extra hands-on help . She was so sweet, patient, and approachable, and I genuinely had the best time doing something unique for my birthday this year. She even provided light beverages and sweet treats, and let us hang out and have a bite to eat before we got started, which made the whole experience feel welcoming. If you're looking for something fun and different to do, definitely check her out! Thank you, Ivory, for hosting us!!

    This is my favorite place in the area to get a custom cake! I have had this cake twice already at events and everyone was gushing over it asking where it was from! The cake decor is lovely and so is the taste. You can walk in and see what cakes they have ready but I highly recommend ordering in advance.

    Ordered a custom 8in heart cake for my birthday. Cake was delicious and really beautiful, they brought my vision to life! Easy to order online and clear communication. Would recommend

    2 tier cake

    Wonderful local baker with a storefront on Olympic. Ivory is hands on and collaborative. I most recently placed an order for my son's birthday cake about 3 weeks in advance. We aimed for a Lion Guard theme. Her cakes are marvels and it completely met expectations. My son literally ran up to me after seeing it and excitedly whispered "Mommy, my cake is beautiful!" The 2 tier estimated 35 servings but I felt like it served much more, 50 in my opinion but the pieces we cut were on the smaller side so the kiddos wouldn't overload on sugar. I've also ordered custom cookies and cupcakes from Ivory's for a work event and they were great. Pricing is standard, no bargains to be had here, but you definitely receive the quality you pay for.

    Some good stuff.

    Stopped at Ivory's Bake Shop after lunch today for dessert. Got a gigantic cookie. It was very good. Forgot what the cookie was called. It was something like a Brown Sugar Maple Snickerdoodle cookie. Do remember thinking, "that's a cookie made out of all of my favorite things". When you look at the pictures I took today of all the other good stuff at Ivory's Bake Shop you may notice that today is Halloween. If I lived someplace where trick-or-treaters come I would have got a big box of the cupcakes with ghosts on them.

    Loved the double chocolate chip cookie, just the right balance of crisp edges and soft in the middle. The biscoff brownie was decadent, fudgey brownie with biscoff swirl. I didn't love the oatmeal chocolate chip cookie, a bit thicker cookie when I prefer flatter cookies with crisp edges, but if you love oatmeal with chocolate chips you might like this one. Would come back for the double chocolate chip cookie and to try the cakes!

    Two-tiered cake with fresh florals & disco balls!

    TLDR: Everyone needs to come here to book their wedding cake (or anything else) !!!! Ivory (the baker/shop owner) is amazing & so accommodating, her cake was delicious, and the design is so beautiful & unique that our guests were raving about it for hours at the wedding & days after!! Longer summary: I spent months and months planning my wedding and obsessing over the small details because I wanted that day to go perfectly! Weddings are so expensive nowadays so I was hesitant to spend even more money on a cake (as a resident, my budget was limited!!), and was so indecisive about a particular cake/cake design & the other bakeries in LA were charging such exorbitant prices! But then, I just kept going back to Ivory's website/instagram because her designs are truly one of a kind and this particular disco cake just spoke to me -- and I knew I would immensely regret it if I didn't have this cake at our wedding! Literally, 5 days before the wedding, I walked into her shop, nervous that she would say no, but Ivory was so warm and friendly in person and immediately said yes to making a cake on such short notice!! In fact, she not only said that she would make it, but she would also deliver all the way to Malibu! I could not have asked for a better vendor like Ivory for our wedding cake, and genuinely I wish I could have our wedding all over again just to have her cake she even went through my wedding floral PowerPoint that I created and thought about the colors of the fresh flowers to place on the cake! Truly, ivory and her cake design for the last much needed addition to my very special day, and I could cry, just thinking about how kind she was that day and how much of a positive impact she made my wedding! She truly made me feel like a special bride, and I hope all brides out there are able to feel this way as well! I would be a return customer for all special events, and even when I want a little sweet treat after a long day in the hospital!

    Best Spinach & Feta Baureka, plus amazing sweets! The service was great, there's even a cool mini candy wall with some fun treats as well.

    Ivories Bake Shop is hands down one of the best bakeries I've ever been to. Everything is made with so much love and attention to detail, from the incredibly moist cakes to the perfectly flaky pastries. The flavors are rich, creative, and consistently delicious. On top of that, the customer service is amazing, friendly, professional, and always welcoming. Whether you're ordering for a special event or just stopping by for a sweet treat, Ivories never disappoints. Highly recommend!

    Cake after pickup!

    First off, the most amazing human, 100/10 customer service, and the cake was STUNNING. I called Ivory less than 24 hours before I needed the cake for my girlfriends birthday, begging her to make me a special cake that would hit the "aesthetic" request. She instantly let me know what was possible, made a few tweaks, and guaranteed me pickup by the time I needed it! Seriously, couldn't recommend more. My go to cake spot from now on!

    First time working with Ivory and won't be the last! Quick to respond and helped me out in a pinch the week of. Desserts were so yummy. Overheard at the baby shower: "this is the best cake pop I've ever had!". Thanks Ivory!

There's a self serving kiosk but I crashed at some point when we were looking through our choices. We ended up having the worker help us. They helped me choose my flavor because I was debating on either smores or banana. I'm glad I ended up with banana! Banana(8/10): The cake part basically tasted like banana bread and it was quite delicious! As much as I enjoyed it, I thought the frosting was overly sweet. I would still choose that flavor if I were to choose again! Protein(0/10): I thought the whole thing was very dry and it didn't help with the frosting being overly sweet. Definitely, will not be choosing this again. Service(10/10): They were kind and helpful! I accidentally dropped my cupcake and I was devastated! I asked if they were ok with switching it out and luckily they allowed it! I was very grateful for the worker that helped us! Overall, a place worth trying especially for their service!

However the cupcake and icing was mouth watering. You can order pickup which is faster. The staff are professional and can accommodate for special orders in advance if needed.

And I know that vanilla cupcakes with buttercream frosting is pretty easy to make, but sometimes I'd rather just buy baked goods than make them for myself, especially when I'm driving past what I thought was a popular (and presumably good) bake shop. I expected a high-quality cupcake. The cupcakes looked cute, but they were as dry as the Sahara. They should have been labeled as white cupcakes as I didn't detect any vanilla in them. I suspect that the "buttercream" was made with milk and margarine and powdered sugar.....so much powdered sugar. It was sickeningly sweet, and it was dry too. And a true bettercream doesn't even use powdered sugar. So not only were the cupcakes terrible, they were not even what they purported to be. This is like calling a cut of meat a filet mignon and serving a hamburger. Von's, Ralphs and Albertson's make better cupcakes than this for a fraction of othe price.

The drinks and pastries have always made it an easy place for us to grab a treat, so I'm not writing this based on one random first impression. Unfortunately, this visit was disappointing enough that I felt I needed to say something. When we came in, the trash cans were overflowing, and the floor looked like it had not been cleaned in quite some time. I understand that cafés can get very busy, especially in Little Tokyo, and I never expect a place to look perfect every second of the day. However, the dining area felt noticeably neglected. With two children, cleanliness is something I pay closer attention to, and it was uncomfortable trying to find a clean area for us to stand and sit. The overall atmosphere also felt disorganized. We waited at the register for help, but it took a while before anyone acknowledged us. A simple "I'll be right with you" would have made a big difference. I have had better experiences here in the past, which is why this visit stood out so much. I'm hoping this was simply a bad day, because Café Dulce has always been a place I was happy to visit with my family. I'm sharing this because I would genuinely like to see the cleanliness and customer service return to the standard I remember. Private Feedback for Management I did not feel comfortable putting the full details of this experience in a public review, but I believe management needs to be aware of what happened. While I was standing at the register waiting to order, the male employee working there was engaged in a conversation with another person and appeared to be openly gloating about drinking while on the job. Based on what I heard and observed, he also appeared to be impaired or intoxicated. He continued the conversation while ignoring me, even though I was standing directly in front of the register waiting to place an order. The tone of the conversation was not subtle or professional. It created a much darker and more uncomfortable atmosphere than what I would ever expect from a family-friendly café. I was there with my two children, and hearing someone behind the register casually talking about drinking while working was deeply concerning. Someone who appears intoxicated while operating a register and handling customers' money creates a terrible narrative for the business. It raises concerns about judgment, accuracy with transactions, food-service safety, and the overall professionalism of the workplace. Even if the employee was exaggerating or joking, it was still completely inappropriate to have that conversation openly in front of customers. What bothered me most was not only the conversation, but the fact that I was being ignored while it continued. I was waiting to spend money at the business, yet the employee seemed more interested in talking about drinking than acknowledging a customer. As a mother standing there with two children, the situation felt uncomfortable, disrespectful, and honestly a little disturbing. This is not my first time visiting Café Dulce, and I have never felt compelled to complain before. I understand that employees are human and that businesses have difficult days. However, the combination of overflowing trash cans, a dirty floor, being ignored at the register, and an employee appearing impaired while discussing drinking on the job crossed a line for me. I am sharing this privately because I believe management should have the opportunity to address it directly. I hope the situation is taken seriously, not only for the reputation of the café, but for the safety and comfort of the customers and employees.
