    Jade

    I stopped by on a Saturday afternoon. The place was not too busy. They used to have spiral croissant. Unfortunately, they no longer make it. Their pastries look very beautiful. Pistachio macaron was good. Ube sesame tart was a beautiful pastry. That was good too. Jade (banana matcha) was a slightly different type of tea. I think strawberry matcha would have tasted better.

    Really pretty bakery and great for afternoon tea. We were really bummed they got rid of the stuffed croissants. Service was quick. The place was pretty and clean. I definitely need to take my gfs here for a girls day out. Overall everything was tasty and we definitely will be back.

    Cakes are good, but be sure to ask what's in them to make sure it's up your alley! I've tried many and can't wait to try more

    Holy smokes -- literally! When I started planning the cake for my sister's 50th birthday, I knew I didn't just need a cake designer. I needed a true artist. Someone who could create a cake just as EXTRA as the person it was meant for. This wasn't just a birthday cake. It was meant to be a testament to 50 years of an amazing life well lived. A sculpture. A piece of art. Something that somehow captured her life, her personality, the things she loves, and the people she loves. There were so many details, and every single one had a story and a meaning behind it. I needed someone who understood that and could actually pull it all off. Then I found Maryam at Marvel Cake. I'm fairly certain Maryam thought I was kidding when I first told her I wanted a gold, smoke-breathing lion on the cake. I was not. And once she realized that, she didn't try to talk me out of my crazy vision, she embraced it. She worked with me to find just the right lion mold. She figured out how to make the smoke actually happen. She even scheduled a practice run with a dummy cake ahead of time so we could make sure everything would work perfectly on the big day. And that same level of care went into every other ridiculous, sentimental, over-the-top detail I threw at her. Throughout the entire process, Maryam was kind, patient, helpful, incredibly sweet, and genuinely invested in bringing this vision to life. And she did. The finished cake was beyond anything I could have hoped for. It wasn't just beautiful or impressive, it captured who my sister is. Every tier, every flower, every symbol, every tiny detail meant something. This cake was incredibly important to me because, in a strange way, it was my love letter to my sister. It was 50 years of memories, things and people she loves, and pieces of her life all wrapped up in one completely outrageous cake. And Maryam treated every single element as though it were just as important to her as it was to me. That is a rare thing. If you're looking for someone to simply make you a beautiful cake, Maryam can absolutely do that. But if you're looking for someone to take an idea that sounds completely impossible (possibly involving a smoke-breathing gold lion) and turn it into something meaningful, personal, spectacular and unforgettable, Maryam is your person. Thank you, Maryam, for understanding that this was never just a cake.

    Came by for some baked goods the other day and it was a decent experience. Parking was available in the private strip mall. Staff behind the counter were courteous. Ordered a chocolate hazelnut dessert and it was tasty and very good. Most importantly, it wasn't too sweet. It was on the pricier side at $10+ each.

    It has been on my list to visit, known for the Spiral Croissant made popular like around 2 years ago. Great indoor and outdoor dining. Since it is small shopping area there is a lot of parking. It is a great place to enjoy a cup or tea or coffee with a selection of decadent desserts. As you check the display case someone will help you and you can request for take out or for here options. The staff were friendly and helpful when I requested for explanation for some of the desserts. Once you pay, pick any table to sit down and they will bring the tea or coffee with dessert of your choice. I had ordered Tokyo Breakfast and Leek Parmesan (I requested the pastry to be warmed up). Definitely must try for people who love IPP (Individual Production Pastry) type of desserts and great place to hangout with your friends or family.

    Customer service 5/5 Desserts 4/5 Ambiance 4/5 I came in randomly one day knowing I had always wanted to try their pastries. I'm not sure why I thought they would also have slices of cake ( Hense the name), but they had smaller pastries and dessert options. A lot of selections for all of your dessert cravings. I will have to go back in and try their coffee and other items. But the things I ordered were good.

    I generally like the cake here, but this time I ordered their mini daily cake. Vanilla flavor and it was super dry and dense.

    Marvel Cake is such a hidden gem! The whole café has a girly and luxurious vibe, from the plush, super comfy seating to the elegant decor. There's plenty of indoor seating, so you don't feel cramped at all -- and bonus points for a clean, well-maintained bathroom, free WiFi, and easy, plentiful parking. I went on a Sunday around 1 PM, and surprisingly, it wasn't crowded at all -- which made the experience even better. I ordered the Hokkaido crepe cake, chocolate croissant, iced latte, and an iced americano. Everything was delicious: * The chocolate croissant was super crispy and fresh -- probably one of the best I've had. * The crepe cake was light, fluffy, and perfectly sweet without being overpowering. * The iced latte was smooth and well-balanced, and you can tell they use good quality coffee. Definitely coming back. Whether you're into desserts, coffee, or just a chill spot with a pretty vibe, Marvel Cake checks all the boxes.

    I ordered a custom cake from them and it came out so beautiful and it was very good! Highly recommend this bakery and will definitely be ordering from them again!

    This has been my go-to place and a secret superpower for the last few years, that enabled me to show up with an amazing cakes for my wife's birthdays and really any occasions. They have a good selection of small single-serve cakes that we really enjoy, as we get to try many different flavors. But they also have large cakes, daily cakes, legendary Marvel tiramisu and all kinds of pastries. It's impossible to come in and walk out without a huge box of things you didn't know you needed. The service is quick and polite. They will even calligraph a custom edible banner for your cake! I've always taken away but there are some tables to eat in. There are always some people there but it's reasonably quiet and peaceful, with lots of light and muted colors interior.

    This place is absolutely lovely! The desserts were such a treat. I came the other day with a friend, and we ordered a few to share, the lemon pie, the passion fruit dessert, and the tiramisu, which was definitely our favorite. I had a cappuccino that was smooth and well-balanced, and my friend got the red velvet coffee, which had a really nice, subtle flavor, just the right touch of sweetness. If it weren't for my sugar sensitivity, I'd probably spend way more time here! The ambiance is so aesthetic and cozy, perfect for catching up with friends over coffee and something sweet.

A simple sandwich order at 9:20 is not ready until 9:45. Lesson learned, come at opening time and order all at once. Cortado & latte, 5/5. Hot, smooth, strong. Orchid acai bowl ($14, sub in mango for mulberry, add coconut dust): 5/5. so good. Palmetto superfoods is my go-to in the SJ area for acai bowls, this was better despite not as many topping options. Their bases are smoother and creamier, no ice crystals here. Also liked that the fruit was chopped smaller. BAE sandwich ($12): 4/5. good, but definitely not worth a 25 min wait. Textures, freshness were great, but it was missing salt/pepper & spices. The sauce helped, but still underwhelming given how good it looks. Recommend having salt & pepper packets & a bottle of hot sauce available to customers. Cinnamon roll ($5.75): as a cinnamon roll, 3/5. As a morning bun type thing, 4.5/5. This is a case of mistaken identity. It's got a slight crunch, light sweetness, fluffy (not dense). When I order a cinnamon roll, I'm more expecting decadent dessert-for-breakfast laden with sugar & butter, yknow? Loved their dining area, loved how beautifully presented all items were, loved how everything was served at optimal temperature (hot espresso, thoroughly warmed pastry, etc), loved the variety of menu items (I can get an acai bowl and bf can get a sandwich or pastry).

Then as she was making the drink, she had mine sitting at the counter for a good few minutes without calling my name because she was busy chatting it up with a customer, handing him a note, talking about travel plans, etc. When I asked where my drink was and that I had been waiting for a while the other barista proceeded to say that they've just been busy.

I ended up paying $5.50 for one single shot of espresso, and the latte was also $5.50. On top of that, I waited about 14 minutes for the espresso and latte. For two coffee drinks, that felt like a long wait. The croissants and some of the other pastries also did not look as fresh as I expected. The atmosphere is great, the presentation is impressive, and the concept is definitely cool.
