    Raquel came to my rescue when the person I booked far in advance canceled on me last minute. Rachel's cake was yummy, beautiful and reasonably priced!! I'm so grateful to her for helping make my daughter's 17th birthday vision come to life!

    Delicious chocoflan for a birthday

    Raquel's work never fails. She does Amazing work and is very tasty. I highly recommend her.

    It has taken me 4 years to finally post it, but I love Raquel's cakes and service. We have been ordering my daughter's cake since she was 2, and we just celebrated her 5th birthday with a really pretty AND delicious peppa pig cake. Raquel can make and decorate the cake exactly how you want and the design has never failed us. Prices have gone up quite a bit, but understandable with inflation sky rocketing. This year we had ordered a tres leches with a custard and whipped cream filling, and that has been one of the best cakes of my life. Perfectly done! I haven't looked beyond this business in the last four years and hope to continue in the following years to come.

    The cake we got. The design on the sides is weird.
    Michelle B.

    Updating due to response and lack of accountability from the baker. This experience made me never want to order a custom cake again. The white icing on the side of the cake is so uneven and looks like a beginner did it and it's not worth almost $200. Just beware when asking for an intricate design. She will say she can do it but if you see my pictures she can't.

    Ordered a college graduation cake for our daughter. Just beautiful. All our guests were impressed and they loved that even her meringue fondant was delicious. It was white cake with strawberry filling and the cake had a slight tres leches texture. Extremely moist. Next time I will ask for a little more strawberries, just my personal preference. You can't go wrong with her lovely creations and the price.

    I contacted Raquel after our original baker was unable to make a cake for my daughter's quinceañera due to illness. Fortunately, Raquel was available, with less than a week to go before the event! After some text exchanges regarding the number of guests, flavors and the theme of the reception, she texted back "Okay, got it!" And, yes she did. Her cake captured the colorful papel picado and rebozos that decorated our outdoor canopy area. She was also able to accommodate our request for a later delivery time. The sponge of the cake was soft with dulce de leche filling in the middle. Overall, Raquel provided a quality cake in what was a very short time frame. Thanks Raquel!

    Recommend 100% her cakes are so moist and not overly sweet, she can make any cake flavor you request. I have ordered 2 cakes from her and they were so delicious and flavorful.

    Raquel is a life saver! I found her on a Monday and I needed my cake by Wednesday She managed to whip the most beautiful cake in such short notice I will keep coming back for more!

    Raquel did an amazing job on a cake that I ordered for a baby shower. The cake was delicious. She makes a point to understand our needs on flavor and design and delivers. Will highly recommend her.

    I came back for another cake! I had a rush order of 2 days and Raquel was glad to accept it! The cactus cake is beautiful and tastes delicious like always. My family and I really enjoyed it! Thank you!!

    I texted asking for some Paw Patrol treats for my daughter's 3rd birthday. Raquel was really pleasant to deal with via text and assisted me with all my endless questions. I ended up getting a small 6 in decor cake with 3 dozen cupcakes from her at a very reasonable price. She was also able to bake a special flavor for me. Thanks!

    Cookie order for a baby shower

    Great communication and easy ordering and design process. The final product was great! And she delivered them as well- excited to provide these favors at a shower this weekend!

    Scott is amazing!…read more Just a few days before my son's birthday party, I realized I needed more than just cookies. I wanted unique cupcakes instead of the typical grocery store variety. After looking around, the first ones that caught my eye were Kick Ass Cupcakes. Even though it was only a couple of days before the party, I figured it couldn't hurt to ask. The worst he could say was no! Not only did Scott say yes, but he made it happen. He created two dozen beautiful cupcakes in four incredible flavors: Orange Creamsicle, Strawberry Lemonade, Shirley Temple, and Lemon. They were absolutely delicious and a huge hit with both the kids and adults. The cupcakes tasted just as amazing as they looked. I can't wait to order from Scott again and highly recommend Kick Ass Cupcakes for birthdays, celebrations, or any special occasion!

He was totally flexible and ready to bake whatever combination of cupcakes we needed. I took a bit longer than planned to finalize the flavors and quantity (classic busy-parent moment ), but Scott didn't miss a beat. Even with the event date quickly approaching, he graciously moved forward and made the entire process feel easy and stress-free. We ordered 40 cupcakes--10 each of four different flavors--and every single one was outstanding. These Kick-Ass Cupcakes absolutely live up to their name. They were universally loved by everyone, from the birthday girl to every last guest. Thank you so much, Scott, for taking such wonderful care of us. We'll absolutely be back, and recommending you to everyone we know.

It's obvious to me that they spent a lot of time on the branding of the name and concept. 10 stars in my book. The server's were nice and also helpful. I ordered 2 lemon cupcakes and a slice of the lemon poppyseed cake with buttercream frosting on top. $19+ for said items. The server put them into 2 beautiful boxes and a very nice bag. "Price 3 stars, boxes 10 stars" SusieCakes does not take cash! "I'm personally not happy about that" I don't want to hear your excuses why you are doing that, I do not and never will like that. That alone is reason enough for me not to go back. I had a slice of the lemon poppyseed cake at room temp per instructions with a glass of milk. I felt like the buttercream tasted like every other buttercream, nothing special. The lemon filling in between the slices was also just ok but the combination of the lemon filling and buttercream made the slice of cake very, very sweet, did I say sweet? I mean way way way too sweet. (And I love sweet) it just ruined the flavor of the cake, as in I could not taste the cake at all. 2 stars The lemon cupcake was better than the lemon poppyseed cake, still very sweet but not like the lemon poppyseed "I could taste the cake a little better but the icing still overwhelmed the flavors of the cake. 3 stars

Lindley is easy to communicate with. From the start of our email communication, he responded in a very timely manner and made the ordering process so easy. On the day of the event, he dropped off the cupcakes and tarts early, which worked out for me and I was able to set up the dessert table with plenty of time. Overall, I had a great experience.

I guess I missed the note on their website that says you need to order vegan or gluten free cupcakes two days in advance. It was nice that they had red velvet but it seems like it's the go-to choice for most places, which makes it hard not to judge against other cupcakes. It was very good, the cake was moist, and I enjoyed the frosting. But it didn't quite measure up to my favorite vegan red velvet cupcake from Sprinkles. The shop is so cute and there's a good amount of parking. I went on a day when there were two people working, and they were both super nice.

I've recommended this place to so many people, so it's a shame that I'm always disappointed with my orders now. And it also looks poorly on me when the same issues happen to people I've recommended this place to. I always order extra bacon (as did my friend twice now because she gave them a second try based on my (former) love for the place and their sandy's) and whoever makes the sandwiches now (gosh I miss Andrew) either doesn't add the extra bacon, or slathers it in mayo). See images of how they used to look vs how they look now. I've had to send my husband back for extra bacon on more than one occasion and today it's DRIPPING in mayo when I didn't ask for extra mayo. Amazed that this is the new baseline for mayo. They also didn't give us a straw and we are on the go today (seen of image in car), so now I can't drink my drink. Please make your sandwiches good again; I would love to keep being a regular, or even a customer of yours at all still.

They're best known for their famous Burnt Almond Cake, though they also offer a variety of other pastries. Personally, I come here just for the cake.

We ended up getting three burnt almond cake slices (2 vanilla 1 chocolate) and some brownies. The brownies were pretty good, balanced sweetness and chocolate flavor without being overwhelmingly sweet and I enjoyed the walnuts, but it was a very fudge like texture and I prefer my brownies to be slightly more cake-y and airy. If you like fudge brownies you'd like these. My issue was the burnt almond cake, both vanilla slices were on the dry side. The chocolate slice had a hint of chocolate otherwise tasted exactly the same. The almonds and cream were fine, I would've preferred stronger almond flavor. Was meh. Price is good at $5 for a hefty slice. If I'm in the area maybe I'd go back, otherwise it was about the same as a Safeway cake slice.
