    Marlina you absolutely nail it every time. The amount of creativity does not even compare to how great and fresh the cakes you have made for not only my daughter but other customers. The packaging and drop off is even as beautiful as the cake. You think her cakes out beautiful the taste is unexplainable. Thank you for your service.

    Marlina made our wedding cake and I cannot say enough good things about her and her baking! She made us a 2 tier cake with 2 flavors - vanilla with Nutella filling and chocolate with dulce de leche filling. Both were PHENOMENAL. She was so sweet when dropping it off and gave instructions for how to best cut it. We gave her inspiration photos and creative freedom and we loved the cake that we got! Absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for high quality baked goods. Marlina, thank you for making our special day a memorable one, everyone loved it!

    We needed a cake for my husbands 40th Grammy-themed birthday party and referred to this bakery by my friend Emily . Marlina was so quick to respond and was so polite! She answered all my questions, gave suggestions, and gave us a quick and reasonable quote! She was so knowledgeable! On the day of the party she even delivered the cake to our home for a reasonable fee and gave me tips on how to take the cake out of the box. The cake looked INCREDIBLE! We received so many compliments and it was exactly how we imagined. Not only did this cake look amazing, it tasted so yummy! We are so happy we went with them and would definitely order a cake from them again for another theme party! Thank you, Marlina!

    My family has ordered many cakes from Marlina! Every single cake we have received have been nothing short of perfection. Our favorite flavor is the lavender with honey frosting! Order a cake from her! You will not regret it!!

    Natasha and Anya, thank you so much for organizing everything so beautifully!…read more We are the owners of Right at Home Santa Clara , and we needed catering for our grand opening. Natasha and Anya were so professional and turned everything into a real celebration. I didn't have to worry about anything. And the cupcakes Natasha made as thank-you gifts for our guests were absolutely beautiful. Everything looked amazing and felt very thoughtful. Thank you both so much! We truly appreciate your hard work and care.

    I feel like I was scammed. I placed an order 3 months in advance for 80 cookies (at $9 a cookie!!),…read morefor my wedding favors. Natasha advertised on her site the left side cookie picture with beautiful artwork and craftmanship (that she said she made). I asked her to mimic this exact cookie for my wedding, and just change the name. I paid the high price because I loved the cookie she showed off on her website so much. On the right side is what I received! The Temu version of the cookie. It's embarrassing and I am so upset I don't even want to use them. I drove 3 hours to get these cookies the day before my wedding, and got completely ripped off. It looks terrible, like a child made them. It's not like this was a rush order, I placed it so far in advance, so there is no excuse for the poor artwork. I'm now out $700 now with nothing to provide as a wedding favor, and no time to get something else. I also tried to message her, the phone number does not have messaging access. Don't make the same mistake I did. Part 2: Responding to the owners response. The reference image came from YOUR OWN website, advertised as what you can make from YOUR OWN PORTFOLIO (i even attached another screenshot) with proof. So to promise me you can mimic exactly a cookie in your portfolio, and then give me hand-painted gold, purple, pink colors (not the rose gold we discussed and that you advertised you can make on your website in the reference photo), is garbage and so upsetting. It wasn't like I chose a random pinterest image, this is your own portfolio of work you advertise and agreed to remake. This is why I feel so scammed.

Reached out to Shruthi, who was very responsive from the get go. She was able to accommodate our design and provide suggestions as well. She helped us with a cake and cake pops and also helped get it delivered. The cake looked beautiful and unlike other custom cakes we had ordered in the past (where the look compromised the taste), this one was equally yummy. The kids at the event also liked the cake pops. Overall we are really happy with the cake and service. Definitely recommend Shruthi :)

Shruthi was quick to respond with a sketch that looked really nice. When we picked up the cake it looked just like the original sketch she had sent us.

Overall we were extremely happy working with Shruthi, starting with original conversation about cake details it was extremely stress free and easy to work with, the aesthetics and cake presentation and the accuracy of what was promised to us and the taste and the timeliness on the delivery of cake!

    This is my 8,000 review!…read more My sister's good friend got her a baby shower cake. I think the flavor was banana? It was a hit with everyone who attended the baby shower. You have Asians who don't like too sweet cakes, then you have a healthy Mexicans who don't like sweets too. The cake was huge! The lion decoration was really cute too. I can't comment on the service because I didn't buy the cake. It went well with our group of people that we got it for my nephew and niece's birthday. I didn't get a picture of the birthday cake. If I have a wedding, I would go here.

Once again, they absolutely exceeded my expectations. From the moment I placed the order, the staff truly stepped it up and were nothing but professional, kind, and attentive. The cake itself was beyond anything I imagined-beautiful, moist, flavorful, and absolutely unforgettable. Every single detail lived up to how amazing this bakery is known to be. I ordered the red velvet cake with cream cheese frosting, and it was perfection. So rich, so tasteful, and not overly sweet-just perfectly balanced. Everyone at the baby shower could not stop complimenting the cake and asking where it was from. Sweet Passion's Bakery never disappoints. They consistently deliver excellence, and you can truly taste the love and care put into their cakes. I will absolutely continue using them for all my special occasions and highly recommend them to anyone looking for an incredible cake.

    Update Review: First things first, I'd like to clarify that…read morethe cake and filling was indeed what I ordered. Secondly, I have to give credit where it's due- Sweets By Design totally came through when it came to taste and wow factor (minus the drip design)!! Cake was fantastic [MOIST & DELICIOUS] and I was surprised by my in-laws approval as well. No joke, they are harsh critics when it comes to desserts and to see them enjoy every bite was definitely a SLAM DUNK. I legit couldn't cut the cake fast enough!! On a side note, thank you Nicole for immediately reaching out to me regarding my disappointment. She handled the situation in a prompt and professional manner. I appreciated her genuineness and heartfelt concern about my issues. 3 stars overall but one additional star for Nicole's customer service. She truly cares about her clients. Business is booming for SBD for obvious reasons and my only warning would be the glitch in communication. Be aware that you may need to reach out and send a few reminder pokes. ---------------------------------------------------- I really wanted to like this small business, I really had high hopes. Unfortunately Sweets By Design is an absolute bust!! After a not so good first impression with SBD during my baby shower planning, I still wanted to give Nicole and her business a try. Since we were never really able to celebrate the birth of my daughter the way we wanted, my husband and I wanted to make her 6 month [[half]] bday a little bit sweeter. I decided to reach out and see if Nicole could help me with our cake. To start off, the issues with communication was just as bad as the 1st time around. I reached out to the business via Instagram on 9/26 and got a response back quickly. I informed the cake's pick up date and sent over 3 designs that I was potentially looking at. I ended up settling with the pastel, drip, macaron, & sprinkles design [see attached photo]. A quote was promised the following day [9/27] and NOTHING WAS RECEIVED. Nicole did reach out 2 days later with the pricing and I was ready to place my order and get the ball rolling. NO RESPONSE. I dm again asking for a cake flavor listing so I can finalize the order and process whatever cost that is needed. AGAIN, CRICKETS! I am forced to reach out yet again on 9/30 asking if she was going to be able to make the cake adding that important details and payment had not yet been able to be finalized. At that point I finally get a response. The entire process of working with this baker is just more stressful than it should. An email was sent to confirm cake info and the filling listed was incorrect. Then 2 days prior to pick up, I have to message Nicole again about an address as to where I need to pick up my order. She then sends another revised email. Cake- My husband was left with the job of picking up the cake since I have an infant to attend to. He comes home with a cake that is nice BUT NOT WHAT I ORDERED. The drip design was nowhere to be found. At this point, I question whether or not the cake & the filling is even correct. I am super let down by what was delivered, even after all the detailed discussion with Nicole. I have dm'd her through IG & sent her texts regarding my disappointment so we'll see how that goes. I'll update my review if/when I hear back from someone regarding this matter.

My virtual baby shower was boba themed so my friend sent a picture of one of the graphics my sister made for me for the baby shower as inspiration for the boba cake. The cake (picture attached) looked just like the graphic and was perfect! I liked that she used an actual boba straw for the top and that it was very detailed and cute. Everyone who was able to see it online thought it was a perfect boba cake. For flavorings, my friend and husband chose the lemon with raspberry (I think) filling. It was one of the hottest days in the Silicon Valley (over 100 degrees) but the cake kept fine in the car and sitting out. The cake itself was moist, not too sweet and had the right amount of lemon flavoring. The raspberry part was also very good. Overall, no complaints about the texture or flavor of the cake. I'm not the hugest fan of fondant so I'm not the best judge but the overall icing was fine as well. Overall, very impressed with the style, design and execution of the cake. The flavor was also good!

Also, she was so accommodating by making this cake on a Thursday when her availability is strictly weekends. However, if I knew that asking for an accommodation would mean my needs wouldn't have been met I would have looked elsewhere. I ordered a 7 inch buttercream cake but instead received fondant which went uneaten. I went back to review the invoice she sent and I realized there was a portion that said fondant but it also said buttercream so I just ignored it because I had no problems with the previous cakes I had received. This cake was for my friends son so I was so sad when they complained about the toughness of the fondant. I should have contacted her prior to make sure it would be buttercream but I believe she also could have let me know she would have been diverging from what I requested. Especially because $220 isnt cheap :(. The inside of the cake was great!

Unfortunately, the cake I received was much smaller than expected. The sizing descriptions on the order form didn't reflect what was delivered, and it didn't match the scale shown in the reference image I shared, nor did she let me know that it wouldn't look the same. The cake itself lacked many details of the reference cake and it was also delivered late, making me believe that she spent extra time on final touches. To my surprise, the cake was very far off from what I had asked for. I tried reaching out to provide feedback but I didn't receive a response.

    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.
