Lele Patisserie - Desserts Near Me - Santa Barbara, California

We couldn't be happier with our wedding cake from Lele Patisserie--it was truly exceptional! Not only was the cake absolutely beautiful, but it was also incredibly delicious. So many of our wedding guests made a point to comment on how fresh and flavorful it was. My dad even went back for a second slice because he loved it that much! Working with Lele and her team was such a joy. Lele is so kind, thoughtful, and accommodating--she made the entire process feel smooth and stress-free. She was always responsive and helpful via email and genuinely cared about making sure we were happy with the final product. One of my favorite parts of the experience was the deconstructed cake tasting. Every flavor we sampled was amazing--it was honestly hard to choose because they were all so good! But in the end, the combination we selected for our wedding day turned out perfect. I couldn't stop eating the cake afterward--it was that good! I wholeheartedly recommend Lele Patisserie to any couple looking for a cake that's as delicious as it is beautiful, and a team that's an absolute pleasure to work with. Flavors: Chocolate cake + cookies & cream frosting in the center layer, chocolate meringue frosting in the outer layers, and vanilla bean frosting on the outside. read more

Ordered my daughter's wedding cake from Lele and everything was perfect. The cake was exactly like the inspo photo and Lele was professional and delivered it to the venue on time. Cake was delicious and beautiful! read more

Highly recommend Lele Patisserie for your wedding cake needs! We were able to do a take home tasting and get to try our selected cakes and frostings from the menu. This was super helpful since many other bakeries only allow you to try their pre selected flavors. Lele and Signe offered a lot of feedback on our selections and we felt very confident in the final selection. Our wedding cake came out SO beautifully, it was exactly how I imagined it to be and it was so delicious. Can't wait to eat that top layer on our anniversary next year. read more

We had our wedding cake made here a few years ago and got married at San Ysidro Ranch. It was simplistic perfection. The cake matched the vibe of our wedding celebration perfectly: classic with an unexpected twist. Vanilla Bean Cake with Passionfruit meringue buttercream filling and frosting. Amazed at the price point. We're driving up from OC for my birthday this week, hoping to get a cake to recreate the special treat we had at our wedding, this time celebrating with our son. He's going to love it too. read more

Lele made our wedding cake. The tasting was easy and delicious, and we went with a vanilla cake with almond buttercream. I appreciated that she had various sophisticated options. We also rented the cake stand (not visible in these photos as we covered it in our flowers), and she very kindly picked it up at our venue (El Paseo Restaurant) after our wedding which she did not have to do. She also had a box ready to go for us to take the top tier home. We loved the end result, and hope to order again for future anniversaries. read more

My cake turned out beautiful the ordering process was quick and extremely easy. The actual flavor was just ok ....my entire family and I were not fans of the frosting as it had too much of a cream cheese flavor the cake itself was kind of dry and crumbled easily. Perhaps try something other than the red velvet. read more

I can not say enough wonderful things about my experience with Lele Patisserie. We ordered my daughters wedding cake from Lele and could not have been more pleased. All of our communications were through email and everything was exactly what my daughter wanted. Lele was most accommodating in shipping my daughter and her fiancee' their take home cake tasting, since they were not able to go to Santa Barbara. Her Lambeth style cake was as beautiful as it was delicious. read more

We ordered a 10" cake from Lele Patisserie for our wedding earlier this year and it was the best wedding cake I've ever had. Lele and her team were accommodating and easy to work with. They were fully booked for sit down tastings the day we were going to be there, so she put together a tasting for us to pick up at the kitchen. The tasting included multiple cake, frosting and filling flavors. We loved them all! And I have to mention the packaging was perfect. Amazing customer service, great price, and delicious cake- I highly recommend Lele Patisserie! We can't wait to order another for our 1st anniversary :) read more

We hired Lele Patisserie through the Belmond El Encanto for our wedding cake and donuts for our reception. Let me tell you... best cake and best donuts we've ever had! The cake design was exactly what we discussed. The tasting was great and picking cake options was so hard, because they were all so good. I actually wish I had gotten a bigger cake because it was so good guests wanted more. The donuts were also amazing and a huge hit with our guests! We've already started trying to figure out how we can get another cake and more donuts from them the next time we are in Santa Barbara!! read more

Lele Patisserie - a wedding cake decorated with flowers - Desserts Near Me - Santa Barbara, California

We had Lele cater desserts for our wedding and rehearsal dinner last year. Best cake I've ever had, I still talk to my husband about it 7 months later. She made a dessert table for us to serve 120 people and we had: strawberry shortcake, chocolate mousse, peach pie, lemon bars, chocolate cake, chocolate chip cookies, and churros for the rehearsal. Every item was amazing. Her and Signe were so prompt in their communications with us as well. I got set on having realistic sugar flowers coming out of the cake and was worried that it wouldn't be executed like I was hoping...she NAILED that too. My only regret is that I didn't get my hands on those flowers during the wedding and I'm positive they got tossed. Do yourself a favor and hire them. read more

Wow! We ordered our wedding cake through Lele and our only regret was that we didn't get a bigger one!! Had so much fun tasting all the flavors and customizing our cake, and it was so easy to work with Lele everything went flawlessly. The entire cake was gone by the end of the night! read more

Genuinely nice people and delicious cake- that is all you really need to know. We did a wedding cake tasting in the fall that was so lovely in every way and can't wait to enjoy the actual cake this spring! read more

We hired Lele for our wedding cake in Sept 2018. She was recommended as the lady to see if you wanted drool-worthy, tasty cake, and the rumors are true. Her cakes are moist and rich, and her frosting creamy and fresh. Our tasting appointment felt like a fantastical Willy Wonka experience, and she let us try a bunch of cake and icing flavors separately and together in a mix n match way that felt more flexible and customized than other tastings we went to. We were conflicted on design, but her Instagram was helpful in looking at what she'd done in the past, and ultimately we sent her a few photos of what we liked and she brought it to life. We had two flavors: carrot cake with citrus cream cheese frosting, and mexican vanilla with cinnamon cream cheese frosting, with an all-over layer of vanilla cream cheese frosting. It's honestly some of the best cake I've ever had, and my guests raved about it. To be honest, the cake wasn't a huge priority for us, and we were a little hesitant to spend money in that area, but we were beyond happy with the results. read more

I'm sure you can't find anyone better at cakes in the SB area. Not only have I personally ordered Lele's cakes and pastries, I've also had them at various events and weddings and they are always top of the line. Super professional and a true artisan. read more

Lele and Signe helped with my April wedding! The cake was so delicious, as well as the mini desserts we ordered. Our cake was red velvet with a cream cheese frosting, and we ordered sugar cookies, chocolate chip cookies, lemon bars, mini tiramisu, and blondies. Everything was some of the best desserts we've ever tasted! 100% recommend! read more

Lele Patisserie made the cake for our intimate 20 person wedding. My brothers thought that our 8 inch cake was worth 500 bucks! It was that delicious! We opted for a classic white 8 inch cake and it was about $150. Lele and her team were so easy to work with. They were responsive on emails and even put the flowers from the florist on the cake. They were able to make the exact cake that I provided pictures of. But even better, the cake was absolutely delicious. We chose a vanilla cake with chocolate ganache and chocolate buttercream and a vanilla buttercream on the outside. It was so good that my husband wanted to eat more when we got back from the wedding - but there was no more left! The ultra cool part of the experience is we were able to take the cake tasting "to go". We live in LA so I was able to drive up, grab the "to go" dissected cake tasting, and then try the cakes over 3 nights with my husband. It made cake tasting so so fun! Also, the cake stand was included in the cost. They have so many stands to choose from. If you have the chance, book lele patisserie! read more

Lele created the most beautiful and delicious cake for my wedding October 2016 - especially challenging given that my husband is allergic to dairy, so she was creative and made the most delicious banana cake with peanut butter frosting with coconut milk instead of regular dairy. Amazing! The only problem was... it was SO good that all of our guests ate every last bit of the cake, and we only got one tiny piece. For our anniversary this year, I reached out to Lele and Signe and they recreated our cake in an anniversary size (perfect for two people) and it was magical. Absolutely wonderful, brought back great memories of our wedding day. I cannot thank them enough for their kindness and attention to detail. Amazing! read more

I had the best cupcake ever here. Tres leeches with strawberries. Who knew tres leeches can be a cupcake? Will come back to try more very soon. read more

Lele does some of the most amazing work with cakes, cupcakes, and cookies I have ever seen. Not only was everything delicious, but the presentation was incredible. I'm not one who normally goes for gluten free, but I tried a gluten free chocolate cake and it was out of control good. She made a gorgeous 'naked' vanilla bean cake with vanilla bean buttercream that was absolutely delicious. Very friendly and very helpful. I recommend Lele Patisserie to anyone looking for a custom cake or dessert table for any occasion. Fantastic experience. Thanks Lele! read more

Lele Patisserie is without question one of the most versatile and spectacular custom bakeries serving the Central Coast. Enough cannot be said about not just the evidently amazing designs, but also the delectable flavors offered. Definitely give Lele a call if you are considering a specialty cake for your upcoming event! read more

Lele at Lele Patisserie was great to work with! She took the time to hold several calls with us and discuss our vision for dessert for the welcome party we were hosting in Santa Barbara. We knew we wanted a dessert with both the kid's colleges represented but didn't know whether we wanted cake or cookies, but Lele was there to guide us. She was patient and knowledgeable and helped walk us through all the options and possibilities. In the end, Lele's cookie design and packaging turned out perfect ... and even better than we had imagined! They couldn't have been more perfect, and we were so pleased! The cookies were in clear bag with a ribbon tying their printed insignia onto it. The presentation of the cookies looked great and were a big hit as they were wrapped so our guests could take them as they left the party. Guests came up to us the next day at the wedding telling us they were the best tasting cookies they had ever eaten. We contacted Lele only a week before the welcome party which was incredible that she could pull this off on such short notice. Working with Lele, we could tell that she was passionate about her job and dedicated to getting it right! Lele was professional, very flexible, easy to communicate and coordinate with, and sweet! We highly recommend her! read more

I drew a picture of the cake I wanted for my retirement party for 100 people. Then I choose the frosting and cake flavors from Lele Patisserie's extensive list. The resulting cake (at a reasonable price) was the best I ever tasted! Many of my guests raved over the design and the taste. I had to hide a second piece away so that I could have it for breakfast the next morning. read more

Lele did the wedding cake and cupcakes for my daughter's wedding and it was wonderful! Not only were the pastries delicious, but they looked beautiful. We kept the wedding cake simple ... two white tiers with hand made succulents around the borders. Everyone loved it. She really is an artist in her cake decorating, very original. I highly recommend her to anyone who needs cakes or pastries for any occasion. read more

It is very Unfortunate I never got to taste a cake for her ! I am giving them a one star for lack of service.I tried to order a cake called 4 times. Finally she called me back I told her the date I need to order. So she said she was sorry that she doesn't check her voice messages that often ...Ok ... but she said she would email me pictures and I can place order ...Well I never got the email , I called 2 more times and I sent a email which she never answered!! I felt I was left hanging .I do not understand how people stay in business if they don't call people back !! I was placing a order , didn't need a tasting !! it was a no brainer !!! read more

We had our beautiful custom wedding cake and full dessert table from Lele this past weekend. They did a fantastic job. Beyond the fact that the cake was gorgeous and tasty (we had a Gluten free banana flavor which was fabulous, a double chocolate flavor (also great!) and a carrot cake which our guests loved!) the service was top knot notch! I changed my mind on flavors, frostings, which layer would be which flavor and what separate desserts I wanted a million times! I was a bridezilla when it came to my cake... and Signe (their pastry chef) was SO accommodating. She replied in full detail to each and every one of my million emails with details and caveats for me to consider. She went above and beyond in terms of customer service. She was always so thoughtful about every aspect...I.e., what color and style serving platters I wanted (and included photos), what kinds of desserts paired well with each other etc.. She was truly fantastic. I highly recommend them for any special occasion. read more
