Wow! What a beautiful cake and was admired by all! Alissa responded quickly and was able to add personalized touches with flowers and the birthday girl's favorite colors. We had decided on a pickup time, but last minute had some scheduling conflicts and was able to push back a day without any issues. She was very accommodating and instructions were very clear and easy for pickup. The cake wasn't too sweet bc it was marscapone, which also held up nicely as it sat out on display for an hour. Would happily recommend Mini Desserts Catering! read more

For our wedding we didn't want to do cake for dessert because it usually goes to waste. I found this business through Yelp and I am so happy we took a chance with Alissa. Her menu selection was great! We ended up going with Cheesecake - Classic & Oreo Mini Trifles - Strawberry Shortcake & Tiramisu Creme Brûlée - Vanilla Tarlets - Seasonal Fruit Sadly, we didn't get to taste them BUT our guests couldn't stop talking about them. Not one single bad comment. Alissa was very easy to communicate with. She was able to delivery the desserts to our venue at a low fee. We bought dessert stands to place the desserts on and they presentation ended up looking really great read more

5+++ stars all the way!! I ordered two 55" custom tart numbers cake with mascarpone filling for my mom's birthday back in January, and Alissa exceeded my expectations!! She was very quick to respond, which is highly appreciated, especially for a 3 week notice. I sent her a bunch of inspo pics, color schemes, a request for my mom's name somewhere and to incorporate butterflies (my mom's fav), and # of people that will be at the party. There was even an option to have printed images on the cakes! Initially, I asked for it but apparently there were issues with the printer. But honestly, I LOVE the way it came out without it! The mascarpone was lightly sweet and fluffy, cookie/tart cake was the perfect texture, and we loved all the little details! My only Very minor critique is that the little pink geo heart cakes had a very thin coat so it was showing a bit of the chocolate underneath. But no biggie! Otherwise, the cake was an absolute hit and my mom was speechless when she saw it!! Also, it was the perfect amount for ~30 people. Big thank you to Alissa and team! Will definitely order again! Note: They do offer delivery -- I believe the pricing is dependent on your location. read more

Alissa is such a great communicator and of course an amazing baker. I was so happy with the outcome of my order which was two dozen elegantly simple cupcakes for my 30th birthday. They were moist, not overly sweet, and beautiful. Initially I wanted a different design and flavors that weren't on the menu and Alissa was open to accommodating. I appreciated it a lot! I ended up changing my order and she was very flexible. Pick up with very smooth, Alissa was fun to talk to. I will definitely be ordering from her for future events and gifts. I loved supporting her small business and hope to see it grow! read more

The cake and cupcakes were beautifully decorated the way I had asked. Alissa responded to requests quickly and was easy to communicate with. I didn't get to taste the dessert beforehand, but the cake was delicious and moist. I received a lot of compliments regarding the cake. I didn't get to try the cupcake the day of the event, but it tasted dry the next day. The cake was still moist even a week after probably because of the layer of cream inside. Her prices were reasonable compared to other bakers I had contacted on Yelp. I would use her services again in the future. A few of our guests also asked for her business. read more

Alissa was so quick to reply even with my last minute ordering (only a few days before the party!). The trifles I ordered were so good and so beautifully presented!

We were very happy with Alissa's cupcakes that she made for our daughter's birthday party. We brainstormed with her on a Mickey Mouse themed cupcake and texted her some photos we had in mind. The order was ready on time and the end result was exactly what we had hoped for. She even made edible white "buttons" that she attached to the cupcake wrapper. The cupcakes were the most delicious we've had, which was echoed by all the attendees. The best part was the frosting, which was true buttercream made from scratch- not overly sicky sugary sweet like most cupcakes bought at a store or large bakery. Very highly recommend Alissa! read more

Excellent from beginning to end. So happy to find this home bakery catering business. Alissa was A plus with communication and execution. More than anything the cake was a work of art. I've seen other number cakes made, but Alissa's cakes has better color palettes and design. This lady has true talent! I was so impressed with her work, I shared a photo of her cake with my neighbors and the response was explosive. I'm definitely a repeat customer! read more

I was looking for ordering custom cupcake and small cake for my kids birthday which was only a week away. I contacted 3-4 bakeries and Alissa was first to respond. She was detail oriented and ask me everything about the cake from flavor, fillings, frosting and design. The price were very reasonable compared to other bakers. She also suggested other designs to best fit with my birthday theme. I ordered chocolate and red velvet cupcakes and both were delicious. Not much sugar and everyone loves them. We asked her to make 4inch chocolate cake with raspberry and edible image for birthday and it was so good. I am going to order more cakes from her. read more

Got this one for a family party the past weekend, still thinking about how amazing it tasted. It was adorable, and very refreshing. The layers of the lemon filling in between the cake layers was memorable. Haven't have a cake taste like this in a very long time. I will definitely order from here again. Also the owner is very nice and sweet. Thank you for the amazing dessert! read more

Alissa is running a flawless business here. The desserts are gorgeous and delicious, and her customer service was perfect. I left an e-mail one night expecting to hear back the next day but she responded and I had my custom order placed the same night. I was especially impressed by the secure packaging that made car transport easy with no fears of falls. Everyone was so impressed with the desserts. read more

Alissa was very nice and worked with me as I live in another State. I ordered 2 dozen custom cupcakes for a 17th birthday and when I was sent pictures of them I was very disappointed. they looked like any homemade cupcake that could have been made at home. they were supposed to be a basketball theme with a 17 on them, the piping was crooked or missing, just very disappointing. I was told the buttercream frosting tasted like plastic and the cupcake was not very good. I was just sad they turned out the way they did, especially for the price. read more

Alissa worked with me to create desserts for my Engagement Party of over 80 guests. She is super responsive and you can tell she cares about her clientele because she is a small owned shop not a mass production so the quality of customer service she gives is beyond 5 stars. It's amazing. She was not rude or disrespectful, over pushing dessert items for the amount of guests I had, like other bakery companies tried to do to me. She was professional, kind, and even delivered the desserts for an extra fee to make it easier with everything else that was going on. She listened to the color scheme and designs I wanted and texted back quickly. Alissa I can't thank you enough and everyone loved the desserts there weren't any left over! Not only were the beautiful but they tasted amazing! Thank you again I will be in touch for future events! :) read more

Many thanks to Alissa for the absolutely beautiful birthday heart tart she made for my daughter's big day. Alissa was so accommodating and was really creative in carrying out the rowing theme. She also flawlessly handled a complicated delivery to USD campus housing and the cake arrived secretly while my daughter was at class (with the gracious assistance of her roomie). The cake was a big surprise and my daughter just loved it! She dug into some of the chocolate before she even took a photo so I'm glad I have the attached photo that Alissa sent me. I'm in San Francisco and my daughter is in San Diego so I'm really pleased that I found Alissa and Mini Desserts Catering! read more
