I was out of town for work and couldn't attend my friend's birthday, but I really wanted to send something special,so I found Jis Cake Boutique From the beginning, the service was incredibly prompt and friendly. They took the time to explain all the cake options and helped create a custom design exactly the way I wanted. My friend was completely surprised and deeply touched. She said it was a moment she'll never forget. The cake tasted amazing, the design was absolutely beautiful, and the delivery was perfectly on time. I'm so grateful to the chef Kang for making this experience so special. If you're looking for a high-quality, unique, and meaningful cake, I highly recommend them! read more

Overpriced for what you get--mostly plastic, not pastry art. I have mixed feelings about my experience here. While the cake design looked great at first glance, I cannot recommend this business given the $400 price tag for a 6-inch cake. The design is "pretty," but it is misleading. Almost all the decorations were non-edible plastic ornaments, paper printouts, and pre-made models rather than handcrafted sugar work or fondant. For this price, I expected artisanal craftsmanship, not a collection of plastic balls and paper toppers. Once you strip away the non-edible parts, you are left with a basic chiffon cake that tastes no different from a $40 cake at a standard Asian bakery. The massive markup seems to be for the "styling" of plastic toys rather than the actual baking or artistry. It felt like paying a premium for a cake that I had to "disassemble" just to eat. read more

I ordered a cake from Ji's cake Boutique for me and my husbands 30th anniversary and I couldn't beleive how amazing it was on such short notice.. Easy pickup, friendly and and accommodating pick up. 100% will order again. read more

This was my second time ordering a custom cake here, and they've once again gone above and beyond. Not only was the design exactly what I envisioned, but the flavor (we chose chocolate cake with strawberry mousse and fresh strawberries) was even more amazing. Moist, fresh, and perfectly balanced--not overly sweet. Pickup was smooth, and the cake was ready right on time. When a place delivers consistent quality, friendly service, and delicious results--twice in a row--it's worth shouting out. Highly recommend for birthdays, celebrations, or any sweet occasion! Thank you Ji for the amazing cake for my husband. read more

I am going to kick off 2025 with my first review on Ji's bakery. To provide some context, I organized a SURPRISE birthday party for my wife with a custom cake. The biggest concern is that my wife can read me like a text book so I didn't think I can pull it off. But I did it!!! Please note that I had Ji's Cake boutique bookmarked for quite some time. It was just a matter of me figuring out when to execute my plan. Anyway, what you can do is go on her website to provide her details. We then communicated pretty much via text messages about the design and options. I asked her if she can come up with an Hermes like cake, which I am attaching a picture. The flavors available are: strawberry, vanilla, and chocolate. Ji mentioned that the best seller is the strawberry flavor so that's what I went with. Honestly, I had my doubts because most of the time you hear that custom cakes would look good but does not taste great. But in this case, I can vouch that the design of the cake is amazing and the cake tasted fantastic. My wife is super detail oriented and even she was mightily impressed with both the design and taste of the cake. This is absolutely a work of art!!! By the way, Ji was able to deliver the cake and I was able to pay her via Zelle. I also gave her more than a week noticed. I would totally recommend her for these custom cakes for special occasions. read more

I've had Ji's cakes and pastries a few times at my friend's kids' birthday parties, so I already knew how pretty and tasty they are. Last Christmas, I ordered her cupcakes for dessert, and they were a big hit with everyone. For my daughter's 11th birthday, we ordered a Labubu cake and cookies, and they were amazing! All the girls at the party loved them. They were so cute and fun, and Labubu is really popular right now. The cake even came with a real Labubu figure, which my daughter was so excited about! I live in Las Vegas, so it's definitely a bit of a drive but I still made arrangements to pick up Ji's cake and cookies because I really wanted them for my daughter's party. Ji was super friendly and easy to work with. She even helped me figure out the closest pickup spot, which made everything so much easier. I really appreciated that! Everything looked beautiful, just like I expected, but what I loved most was that the cake and cookies tasted really good. I'm not a fan of desserts that are too sweet, but Ji's desserts are just right. My daughter even said Ji's cake and cookies were the best gift from the party! Thank you, Ji, for making my daughter's birthday extra special! I highly recommend her if you want something fun, beautiful, and delicious for your next celebration. read more

I contacted Ji's Cake Boutique through the message system on their website, and I received a call back within an hour about my inquiry. When I told her I needed a Birthday cake for my coworker on short notice (4 days), she was extremely helpful, and communicated with me clearly throughout the process. The end result was an absolutely gorgeous cake that completely exceeded my expectations. The design, colors, and taste were just incredible. She even went above and beyond and incorporated some elements from our company's website into the cake design. Overall, I was extremely impressed by the professionalism, quick turnaround, and cake design. It made for an amazing Birthday party, and all of my coworkers thoroughly enjoyed the cake. I strongly recommend Ji's Cake Boutique, and I'm already looking forward to the next time I can have her design a cake for me. read more

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!! She is amazing and super accommodating. I reached out to order a cake for my husband's birthday. This was my first time working with her, so as expected I had some questions. I explained to her what I was looking for as well as which cake I wanted -- I wanted the Ferrari cake (my husband is an avid Formula 1 fan and loves Ferrari). She walked me through her process and made this experience smooth and painless. She even offered to bring the cake before the party started. How sweet was that. She was super professional and very kind. Not only are her creations amazing, they also taste great. Everyone at the party was in awe! But more importantly, my husband was speechless when we brought out the cake. His exact words was "it is so perfect that I don't want to cut into it and eat it". read more

Looove Ji's cakes. She creates the most beautiful cakes! But that's not the only reason why she became my go to person for parties. Her cakes are absolutely delicious.

Ji is simply amazing! I ordered a cake for my daughter's 9th birthday and she called me personally to ask for cake details. I switched up the theme a bit on her 2 weeks prior, but Ji didn't seem to mind, even though I felt bad! She was professional and knew exactly what she was doing! The cake was exactly what my daughter wanted, but more! The cake was delicious. We had one happy birthday girl. I would definitely have Ji make another birthday cake when we're back in the area. Thank you again, Ji for making my daughter so happy for her birthday. read more

I was surprised with this beautiful cake for my 40th birthday and it couldn't have been more perfect. My boyfriend wanted to surprise me with a special cake. I was nervous because, ladies you know. He ended telling me stories, so I'm grateful for whomever he spoke with because they talked him out of choosing some odd filling options. He means well but flavor profiles can be tough lol! Nevertheless, he did perfect! The exterior was gorgeous! I didn't want to cut it but so glad I did because it tasted equally as lovely. This was a vanilla cake (favorite) with a berry mousse. It was light and airy. And the frosting wasn't overly sweet, which I find in a lot of other cakes. I would highly recommend Ji's for your special occasion! read more

I ordered a cake from Ji based on several recommendations from a local South Orange County, Mom's group on Facebook. It did not disappoint. Ji was extremely communicative. Shared my vision. Even made changes to her proposed color scheme based on the balloons I had already blown up for a mermaid themed Ariel. The cake was fluffy and beautiful and not sickeningly sweet did it arrive immaculately packed, she also included a candle and acrylic server/slicer her included two matches embedded! You can tell the pride that she takes in her work. read more

We had a gender reveal cake sent to us today from my Wife's sister who ordered from Ji's Cake Boutique. First of all the cake was beautifully decorated. Please see picture below. Not only did this cake look amazing, it was absolutely delicious. The cake was really moist and the strawberry frosting inside was heavenly. Usually when cakes look amazing they don't taste great but with this cake you get the best of both. Also the service was top notch. It was a lazy Saturday morning for us and we missed all the calls from the security guard at the gate to let them in to deliver the cake. However they were very patient and delivered an exquisite cake. We will definitely order from Ji's Cake Boutique. This place is legit! Dang! Thank you and keep up the great work. read more

I inquired about my wedding cake to Ji's the week of my wedding ... I know very last minute but cake was what I was forgetting ... surprisingly Ji was very accommodating and her response was very quick. I wasn't ...a very picky bride (in my opinion) and wanted a simple 1 tier cake but what I received was BEYOND anything I imagined. IT WAS ABSOLUTELY beautiful! Even though it was a small 1-tier cake it had the WOW affect on everyone that came to my wedding. Since the take was small we only shared it with our family and OH MY GOODNESS, that cake is delicious! My husband woke up the day after asking if we had more cake left HAHA I can't thank Ji enough for the cake and how responsive she was and how the coordinator for ordering and pick up was so smooth, she understood that the week of the wedding was stressful and she made the pick up process as easy as possible -- we had someone live in Irvine so we had the groomsmen pick it up rather than delivering it to our venue. I highly recommend Ji's Cake Boutique if you want a unique cake that will be pleasing to the eyes and mouth! read more

I want to start by saying Chef Ji Kang is simply authentic, caring and awesome at what she does. I reached out to Chef Kang t help me with a unique cake design for a colleague's 10th work anniversary! She was responsive took my thoughts down and turned them into a perfect gift to create a memory. Not only was the design and finished product better than I imagined the cake, as I was told by the recipient, was delicious as well. To further the great experience Chef Kang went above and beyond on delivery to my colleague who had a unique entry to his community. She communicated and navigated that challenge so professionally. If you are looking for a unique, memorable and delicious experience don't look any further. Thank you Chef Kang for your awesome design, amazing personality, professionalism and the all around experience. read more

Amazing custom cake which wowed my family of 11 this Christmas eve! Ji's cake is perfect for parties and receptions and could be a showpiece on its own. I ordered the cake 3 days before the event, which was going to celebrate my parents' birthdays. Amazingly Ji agreed to the last minute request and just needed us to send a few images for customization. She even was able to add Chinese characters to the cake! Anyone who needs custom cakes for parties or wedding cakes should definitely consider her service! read more

The event was a special birthday celebration for my wife. As I searched for a creative cake company, I found Ji's Cake Boutique. Ji was easy to work with and she had many creative ideas. I decided on a travel themed cake with fresh strawberries. My wife and I have had the privilege to travel and Ji customized the cake to represent several places we've been able to visit. Any questions that I had along the way, Ji responded promptly. I gave her an hour window to arrive at the restaurant to deliver the cake. She arrived early, right at the beginning, so there was no stress at all. She gave the restaurant instructions on how to care for the cake until we were ready. My wife was over the moon and referred to it as a 'Masterpiece'! Our friends were equally amazed! The cake itself was so fresh and delicious; everyone enjoyed it. Ji is truly an artist and I would highly recommend her creativity and service. read more

Long overdue review from June 2021. Jiyeon designed a beautiful cake for my girlfriends graduation party! Contacted her through text and she's so helpful and sweet! Took about a week to have the cake ready which was perfect and just in time for the party. Paid her through Venmo and pick-up was easy. The cake itself was delicious! Definitely will come back to her business for future cakes and desserts. Thank you Jiyeon! read more

Sometimes Yelp Karma helps you find a custom baker that lives within walking distance who can not only bake a custom Toy Story cake with 3 days notice, but deliver it, be beyond super accommodating, and have it most importantly taste great! Ji helped us get a custom made cake super last minute for my wife and my son's birthday to help make pandemic Birthday's as fun as possible since we shouldn't be throwing big parties. Called on a Monday afternoon for a Thursday birthday and she Nailed it. 4 other bakers in the area literally scoffed at me when asking if it was possible. I HAVE NO IDEA HOW LONG IT TAKES TO MAKE A CAKE.. haha One other baker told me I could get them to write Happy Birthday on a cake and they could put sprinkles on it... Uh you can't put some cake toppers on it too? Not in such short notice they said. Call up Ji and support a local neighborhood small business! read more

Our custom cake was a "work of art"...it was too beautiful to cut and eat. The presentation blew away my expectations and all my friends and family that attend our event. After the blowing of the candle we had to do the unthinkable and cut the cake. How did taste??? Delish... it wasn't overly sweet and the berry mousse was an elegant counter balance to white cake. It tasted as good as it looked. Thank you Chef Ji your custom cake was an unexpected centerpiece for our event worth every penny. THANK YOU !!! read more

Ji's Cake is the best decorative cake ever. I have my girl's 7th birthday "My Little Pony" cake. Ji is a genius cake decoration professor. We had a pleasant conversation before I offered her the job. "My Little Pony" cake is a challenging job to replicate the theme colors of purple, pink, blue, and yellow. Some cake decorators are hesitant to promise but Ji has good sense and provides a plan to go. It turns out to be amazing. The cake she made is gorgeous with aroma and smooth taste. My party makes great ads for her business. Although Ji's doesn't own an actual store, she just runs every cake like a masterpiece. we are so impressed by the healthy recipes of natural fruit and smoothy cream. Just try it. read more

It was a vanilla cake with strawberry mousse and fresh strawberries and had a beautiful design that I asked her to make. She created a cute girl sloth and added a cute figurine for my nephew and his wife's baby shower. I received many compliments on this cake, which was also very moist and fresh. Ji's service and attention to detail is unmatched. I would highly recommend Ji's Cake Boutique! read more

Wonderful experience with Chef Ji! She is very responsive via text & the cake was hand-delivered on time for my son's birthday party. The cake looked AMAZING & everyone loved it, especially the birthday boy. He chose red velvet with cream cheese frosting - it was the BEST red velvet cake I've ever had! The flavors were rich, the cream cheese frosting tasted like a subtle cheesecake; even the fondant tasted good, & I usually don't like the taste of fondant. Chef Ji recommends taking the fondant off the cake because it's too sweet & doesn't allow for proper tasting of her cake; so we ate the cake pieces first & had a few bites of the fondant afterward. Overall an excellent experience; I highly recommend ordering your special cakes from Chef Ji! read more

I wish there were more stars to give. 5 stars aren't enough for the amazing cake that Ji makes. I feel so lucky that I found her! I first met Ji almost 10 years ago for my nephew's first birthday cake. She made us the most perfect Cowboy cake that WOWED every guest at the party. She made several more cakes for our family events and friend's wedding. Not only her cake looks awesome but tastes really good! I think her buttercream / fillings are the best among the ones I tasted from all dessert boutiques i have been to. This time my niece was turning 6 so I contacted Ji for a Unicorn theme cake and she did not disappoint again. She made my niece the happiest 6 year old on the block that day. The cake was beyond perfect and tasted so good. As soon as the party was over I had to look at my calendar to see when our next event was so I have an excuse to order her perfect cake again LOL. Can't wait for the next event! read more
