    Rainbow ice cheese cake
    vanessa f.

    Ordered via Doordash. The Japanese ice cheese cake is delicious! It seems to be available only thru delivery, not in person. The rainbow one was also very good, with a layer of cream in between the different flavors

    Black Forest Cake

    I never order a black Forrest from here. The birthday black Forrest cake just too much cream, the portion of the cream to the cake is way too much. And the cream is not light and not fluffy. Maybe this is because egg shortage, so the cake layer is too thin and using the cream to make it looks taller, to hold it taller, gotta have a more dense cream.... Will suggest to buy mousse cake using egg shortage period.

    Owners are rude and entitled. They parked directly on the sidewalk and inner walkway of the shopping center blocking the way making inaccessible for someone on a wheelchair, and putting kids from the High-school who frequent the Starbucks just a few feet away in danger as the car could roll out. There is a signed right over the car indicating that bikes are not allowed, and yet the owner feels entitled to park his 2 ton vehicle to save himself 10 feet from parking on the street seen just behind him.

    Great decorations but I wish they had told me to be more careful with the cake in the box
    Shinny L.

    Great place to get a last minute custom cake. We ordered the day before (24 hours) and picked it up the next morning. Theres a huge selection for flavors and type of cakes. The cake got some compliments from the adults at the party. However, when I arrived to pick it up the person was still making the cake, which meant the the frosting was not refrigerated. I brought it directly to our birthday party where it sat in the fridge for a couple hours but possibly but then the damage was done - the guy didn't tape the cake down to the box so it shifted and one side was ruined. The front side was still sort of ok- good enough that the kids didn't notice. Also the cake itself was dry- likely thawed from frozen and not fresh. The storefront is not the cleanest inside and they don't have much of other items in the bakery- just a few things here and there. I'm on the fence about trying them again.

    My friend ordered me half a dozen vanilla chiffon cupcakes from here to be delivered at work. The cupcakes came intact in a cute box. Each cupcake had a strawberry and blueberry on top. The cupcakes were pretty good, and I'll be sure to stop by in the future to see what else they offer.

    Guava birthday cake
    Sydney J.

    My partner placed a custom birthday cake order on their website for a guava mousse cake and a message written in Chinese for their mother's birthday. They got called by the baker/store owner when the cake was ready and we went to pick it up; the cake was pretty, and the message written neatly on top. The owner also speaks Cantonese. The guava and mousse in the cake is also quite nice as it adds smoothness and fruity flavor. It contains the spongey parts that you find in a typical cake as well.

    Yum might pastry. We needed a mango cake and were so happy to found pretty one. It was light, sweet and a hint of tart- delish!

    Strawberry Cream Cake for Baby shower
    Palak M.

    Wow !! Their cakes are always so fresh !! One of the nicest bakery in Fremont. They have a variety or breads and snacks, but I mostly go for their cakes. They generally dont keep cakes ready, but prepare fresh for you in 15 mins. Their mousse is melt in mouth. Sponge so soft and fresh. We always enjoy their chocolate and Mango mousse cake. They staff is always nice and friendly. I ordered a special cake for my Sister's baby shower and that turned out perfect. Would always recommend their cakes.

    Taro Bun
    Ed S.

    I've been seeing this bakery/cake shop whenever I go to Lions Supermarket. I finally decided to try them. I and my wife likes the bun and saw several items of buns. We had their chicken, pork, and taro buns. The person who helped us told us the buns were newly cooked. She told us that they also have plain and mung bean buns. The taro bun is delicious. There's a taro inside the bun and since we have a steamer, we were able to eat them warm. The chicken and pork buns are also good. The price for the buns is not expensive and we bought a package of six buns in a plastic package. We also saw several cakes on display and the decorations are fantastic. I liked the way it was made and decorated. You can ask for the flavor of cakes you wanted and they will make it for you. Once we celebrate Bday, anniversary or happy occasion, we will come here and order their cakes We also found a place to enjoy our favorite buns.

    This cake has only tracks , no train !! Really ????
    Beena T.

    Worst bakery ever ; I ordered a birthday cake for my son s 2 nd bday with a Thomas train design on it. They charged me $ 92 for the 1/4 sheet cake mango mouse one. They completely screwed the design ; there was no train only tracks. This was supposed to be custom design cake . Taste wise - it was frozen and not freshly prepared, the shopkeeper speaks only Chinese . They take advantage of not knowing English when comes with service complaints . Terrible experience . I wish I could give no star

    6 strawberry cupcakes
    Maria N.

    Stopped by here hoping to pick up some pastries and cupcakes or a cake, but wound up not getting anything. I Door Dashed from this place once and thought the baked goods and cupcakes/cake were good. However, upon coming into the store in person, I had a different perspective. Even though I came here around lunch time, my expectations were shot when I entered a store where pastries didn't appear to be fresh and there were barely any buns visible. The cake rolls were collecting moisture in the open fridge. Also, to add to the oddness, the man working behind the counter is able to whip out any cake you choose from the list in 10 minutes. I read several reviews stating the cakes were frozen and didn't want to believe them, but it's true. The cake I ordered was dry, not moist, and appeared frozen... it was quite disappointing. I was hoping to have another reliable bakery around the area, but I will not be coming back to this location.

    Lovely Mango Mousse Cake
    Rhitu K.

    One of the best mango mousse cake ever! I loved how the cake wasn't overly sweet and the sponge cake was fluffy and soft as well. All the fruits were pretty fresh and tasty too. My boyfriend had placed an online order on Friday and they called him over the weekend to verify the order and my cake was ready on Wednesday in time for the birthday! We loved how they didn't ask for a credit card over the phone, which was very refreshing.

    Dinosaur themed cake
    Nidhi P.

    Picked up a white cake here for a dinosaur themed bday party for a family member. The whipped frosting was AMAZING! The cake was about $150 but the taste was totally worth it. It was super moist. The only one issue we had was the flavoring. We asked for a mango filling cream inside which they forgot. They didn't give a price discount but they offered 2 mango Swiss rolls instead.

    this place was the perfect stop in the middle of my long bike ride yesterday. i had it on my radar…read moreand was going to be near, so donuts for lunch it was! they were sold out of about half of their options around 2pm but had plenty left, and they were still deliciously fresh then by then. i grabbed their last blueberry cream donut (love a filled brioche) and a caprese bun for something salty. and despite being a total coffee snob (i make my own espresso at home and even roast my own coffee beans in my kitchen!) i tried a gibraltar aka a cortado. i'm surprised i got a pic of the the caprese before i inhaled it. they warmed it up for me, and there was a mouth-watering ripe tomato in every bite. little pesto/basil with the crispy cheese. wow. perfectly crunchy and also juicy. delicious the blueberry cream was awesome. the flavor isn't too sweet, nice light fry with a ring on the outside, good gluten development... all markers of a superbly made donut. and the coffee! wow! when a bakery is good at their food options, i don't necessarily expect great coffee, but they carry verve which is a winner, and a crowd pleaser. not too dark, but still solid enough to hold up to a baked good. milk texture was spot on. overall super impressed with this place. friendly service, and they mask (yay). half a star off for no bathroom. i really wanted some soap and water after all the portapotty use of my bike ride :(

    Upon walking into Bun Appetit, I noticed how clean this establishment is. The people working there…read morewere also friendly and patient as my family decided what to try. There's no seating area inside the bakery, but there are some tables outside next to a water fountain. Of the times that I've been there, it's mostly empty and clean, and the trash bins are not overflowing. The donuts are absolutely delicious. The brioche donut is soft but holds the fillings in well. There's also a bit of crunch from the sugar on the outside of the donut. There's an ample amount of filling, so you get to taste the flavors. So far, my favorites are Irish cream, lemon blueberry, and banana cream. It is a bit messy to eat, so have napkins and a small plate to catch any sugar or filling that may fall out when you bite into it. We had their chocolate chip cookie. It looked like a big mound of baked dough. Overall, it was okay. I would easily skip this for the donuts instead. I haven't tried their coffees, but my daughter loves the hot chocolate, and I have been enjoying their calamansi juice. It's nice and tart, not too sweet. I have seen some savory options but have not tried them. I will be back to explore the menu.

    Of course husband last minute says day of birthday celebration that we need a cake. Found Izumi…read moreCakes on Yelp and was bummed at first because the soonest online reservation for a cake would be two days later. Husband called them around 11am and they said they were in the middle of making their strawberry cakes so they could add our order in for a same day pickup at 4pm. Pickup went well and the cake was so cute and it tasted great! Like the Chinese bakery strawberry cream cake with a moist sponge cake; not too sweet, just right. Might sound basic but it was done very well. Would 100% recommend. I don't know prices for cakes nowadays but I didn't feel bad paying about $60 for a cute and tasty cake (6", strawberry cream cake). I wouldn't bank on same day pickups, I might've just been very lucky they were in the middle of making their cakes but it wouldn't hurt to try calling early in the day if you're in a pinch for a solid cake. I'm very thankful for their service!

    This spot is takeout-only, so don't plan on stopping by for long. Finding parking isn't difficult…read morebut might take a minute on busy days, as it shares a parking lot with the rest of a popular plaza. The store itself is easy to find as well, with a clear label outside. Walking in, it looks half-closed--their cakes are all stored in a large refrigerator, with nothing in the case on the counter. There is a sign proclaiming "takeout only" in slight disarray, and the seating is pushed to the side. That said, the service is friendly and the employees are quick to help you and show you what they have in stock for takeout. I ordered the 4" Berry Berry Light Cake for a birthday, and they were able to write a birthday message on the cake board, which I really appreciated. The cake also tasted very light and the sweetness was subtle, which I really enjoyed. The berry flavor in the sponge was a little too subtle, though. My main concern is that the cake does not fully resemble the picture they advertised online. It is missing the freeze-dried berries on top, and the berry glaze did not reach as far down the cake as was shown in the photo. Because the berry glaze is the main source of the berry flavor, this was a little disappointing. Also, the cake was not finished when I came to pick up the cake (and I was ~5 minutes late). I'm uncertain if this is for freshness or if there is another reason. Overall, I like the spot for the fresh and light cake. It's pleasantly unique compared to your standard sheet cake, and everything is rather cute. However, it may be a better idea to buy the cakes in-person to be 100% sure of what it will look like, though daily stock is definitely more limited than if you place an order online. I hope they reopen their indoor seating soon.
