    Loved it ! Inside and out
    Cherry C.

    I was so happy with the cake Ruth made! I was having a surprise 50th Birthday Party for My husband . I wanted this funny toilet paper cake . I showed her a picture and it turned out even better than the picture ! I was so pleased the cake tasted as good as it looked! I tried the marble with vanilla mousse . My husband likes simple flavors so I didn't get to try some of the other special flavors Ruth makes . After this I will be trying something else ! Thank you Ruth for doing such a great job!!

    We celebrated our BFFs' birthday party with a tea! we dressed up for the occasion and we were all surprised at how dainty the set up was... the host, Ruth, was very warm and accommodating and has carefully selected and prepared each food and drink by herself... everything beautifully presented but also very tasty! We are all very pleased... and full LOL...

    Custom red velvet cake pops!

    DELICIOUS CAKE POPS! Ruth's cake pop is rich and is of high quality! We ordered 9 dozen for $42/dozen since they were customized for our wedding 5*12*19. I emailed her and she was very informative and replied as soon as she's able to. She's also very friendly.

    I can't say enough nice things about Ruth. My family and I flew into Vegas from Fresno for a surprise 60th birthday for my mom. I expressed to Ruth just how important this dinner was and she went above and beyond to perform. She made the cake BETTER then the image provided,.. and she also delivered the cake with more then enough time in advance to the restaurant. I truly can't thank Ruth enough for her hard work. Not only was the cake gorgeous, it was Delicious.

    We had both a cake and cupcakes for my daughter's first birthday, and everything was delicious. They were light and tasty, but not too sweet. To us and our guests, everything was perfect. We would definitely order from here again.

    Ruth makes deliciously amazing cakes! It is the best in Vegas! I would recommend to anyone, specially the Ube cake!

    Found them on Instagram after seeing a pic of their silvanas! I had to try them right away so I DM'd Ruth and she made the order process sooo easy! I picked them up the next day and got a dozen assorted silvanas (matcha, cookies and cream, original, ube, mocha, and chocolate) I will definitely be ordering more from her!

    Very pleased with the services provided by Need For Sweets! We requested services for your baby's first birthday, and were not disappointed! From the beginning Ruth was very informative and made sure we understood our options available! She made sure she understood what it was we requested! We ordered this beautiful two layered cake, with last minute orders of cake pops! Both were absolutely delicious, moist, and flavorful! Would highly recommend her services and would be a returning client!

    I randomly found this wonderful local baker through yelp and she was amazing. I ordered cake pops as our wedding favour and it was the best I've had. Not too sweet and super moist. She even helped me wrap it nicely and add the sticker label on it which saved me time on the wedding day. The cake I ordered was a vanilla cake with whipped cream and strawberries. Again, it was perfect. Everyone loved it! She even made taster samples for us before we placed the order. I definitely recommend her for any of your special events!

    Ruth made our cake exactly as we wanted it....and we made all the arrangements strictly via texts and emails. She also made us heart-shaped leche flan, as a custom request. The merengue and silvanas were a huge hit. Her dessert creations for our special event are not only delicious, they're also gorgeous.

    Ruth was so nice and her work was amazing!! My daughters birthday cake was everything I imagined it to be. I told Ruth exactly what I would like on it and she brought it to life! Everyone at our party kept saying how yummy the cake was and how beautiful the design was. I couldn't agree more! HIGHLY recommend!

    Moving from Cali to LV meant leaving behind all the good bakeries we ordered cakes and desserts from. And it's usually a hit or miss when it comes to finding a good cake shop/cake maker. While I was planning for my daughter's birthday party, I came across needforsweetsLV on instagram, so I messaged Ruth. She was so patient with me since I had to change a couple things I ordered but she was accommodating. I ordered ube cake, meringue cookies, chocolate raspberry tartlets and fruit tarts for my daughter's birthday. I'm so glad I found her on Instagram! The Ube cake was amazing! I showed her the picture of what I wanted it to look like and it looked beautiful and it tasted soooo good! Everyone at my daughter's party loved it, even the ones who have never heard of or tried "ube." She made it perfectly moist and the level of sweetness is just right. I just love how the desserts she made weren't too sweet. They're the kind of desserts that you won't get tired of easily because of the sweetness. I can't say enough good things, you just have to try what she makes! I also ordered some silvana cookies and I can't wait to try those!!! We will definitely order more goodies from her.

    Ruth is amazing! I've used her twice for cakes and they have both come out perfectly and exactly like I asked. Not to mention they are absolutely delicious! She is always nice and, although I unfortunately have not been able to meet her yet, both people I've had pick up the cakes have said she is a complete sweetheart. I will definitely continue choosing Ruth for my cake needs!

I ordered my birthday cakes from Tous and the staff were so helpful in my decision for which cakes to pick out. I had about 30 people at my party and so we opted for 2 cakes the Blueberry Yogurt Cake and Green Tea Cloud. Everyone pretty much tried both flavors. Both were so delicious and went well with my theme. This location is smaller than the Spring Mountain location, but I love the convenience and presentation. I've tried their macarons, sandwiches, drinks, cakes, all delicious. It's a great place to do some work too if you like. There's a couple of tables and seats for you and I enjoy the coziness as well.

However.... There're also controllables that went wrong and is the prime reason for this review. I ordered 2 drinks along with some baked goodies (we found some stuff we like even though they were out of almost all our favourites). The forgot one drink completely, so when we were still standing around in the middle of the shop the girl behind the cash register looked at me and said "did you need anything else?" Like, yes my drink? Remember like 7 minutes ago I placed the order? So, starts making the hot pistachio latte in a tiff but sprays frothed milk all over the place. So, during take two, she's taking off her apron and asking the guy next to her to help. He was super useful when he just pointed and whispered something to the other girl- who now took over my (apparently super complicated) hot latte order. Second girl kept consulting her 3 other coworkers (cuz apparently it requires an act of congress to get the recipe together for hot milk + tea....) After a very entertaining series of events I was handed a drink and left. First sip in the car... COLD. CHUNKY. MILK. FROM. HOT. COFFEE. CUP. Quick u-turn later, I'm once again greeted with deer in headlights by a group of 4 confused people. I told them my drink is cold, she asked if it was supposed to be hot. Ummmmm yes?! Beyond the fact that you handed it to me in a HOT DRINK CUP? It's on my receipt? Take 3... she apologizes and starts making the drink and then gets confused once again. I believe she was holding the "cloud" bottle as she's conferring with her cohort and asks if SHE SHOULD MICROWAVE IT.... To which the male worker says, you're not supposed to microwave those. *facepalm* Bunch more whispers later I'm handed a drink. She said "do you wanna see if that's hot enough for you?" MA'AM IT's STRAIGHT UP ICE COLD. The customer service line is a whole other series of jokes. This place is like being caught in twilight zone during April fools day. $6.25 for a small hot *ice-cold* latte wasn't worth it

Our go to choice is the classic sliced white bread which is delicious and makes amazing toast. They also have a large selection in the cold case of specialty cakes and cake slices. I really like the Black Forest cake! Again, these cakes are less sweet than you'd expect which I like! They also have a selection of specialty coffees and boba drinks!
