Was recommended Jenn's Cupcakes from another local bakery and I'm so glad I was!…read more We initially wanted to do a cake tasting for my wedding next year, but in speaking with Jenn she mentioned it's easier to try the flavors by going to their local pop ups. I decided to stop by one of their pop ups and try 6 different flavors: triple chocolate, sprinkle, Oreo, lemon raspberry, carrot pineapple and red velvet. Wow, these are the moistest cupcakes I've ever had. Presentation was 10/10 and flavors were spot on. My fiancé and I landed on the red velvet for our wedding! So happy to have found Jenn's cupcakes. The team is so nice and helpful, they answered all my questions and were quick with responses.

I ordered a cupcake pull apart Dinosaur cake for my sons 2nd birthday!…read more I sent a dinosaur image I got from Google and asked if they could add a party had with his age on it. I honestly wasn't expecting it to turn out this good but wow! The artwork with the buttercream nailed the original image. Flavors: I opted for 4 flavors cookies n' cream, funfetti, Vanilla strawberry filling and chocolate! The chocolate cupcake with the chocolate filling were to die for. Super rich! Will surely be ordering from this place again!

Service: 5 Placing order/inquiry was pretty easy. She is…read morevery responsive and handles short notice orders. I was looking for a cake less than a week from pick up. Sent in order/inquiry via email and she was able to communicate effectively all the details that needed to be addressed in the span of a few days. Cake quality: 4.5/5 I originally chose s'mores and guava but because I wasn't sure if two layers would be too much for 2 people serving, I decided with 1 layer and 1 flavor. S'mores flavor was a marshmallow delight, which included a marshmallows buttercream for frosting, chocolate flavor cake, and marshmallows and graham cracker center. I loved that the frosting and cake were not overly sweet but felt that there could've been a bit more graham cracker. Overall: would highly recommend! If you are looking for a fast turn around time, and solid in quality flavor and design, please consider paperrock fork bakery! Also, Cheers to Elmeisher--She really cares and aims to make every cake wonderful and her best work yet. Can't wait to try her bakery again :)

I live in this neighborhood so I can get to Full Belly Bakery within a 15 minute walk. There are a…read morebunch of different bakery options in the area, this place is added to the mix. They're in a location that used to be a Subway. I've only have their cookies, I'm a sucker for good cookies. I particularly recommend their Peanut Butter Miso (a flavor I don't think you can get at a lot of places, sweet savory), and Ginger Molasses. I've also been supporting them because they're part of the Rewards Network Dining. I subscribe to the program to get Alaska/Atmos points on qualified dining, and I'm trying to get as many points as I can, so dining with restaurants as part of that program is helpful. You can order full cakes as well as they have slices avaialble for purchase. I got a tiramisu slice for my mom, which she said she liked. Good addiiton to the neighorhood.

I'm a total cake lover, so I was excited to try Full Belly bakery. I was surprised to see that it…read morewas not a full service bakery, and there was no inside seating. Their primary focus appears to be on their special order cakes-which look amazing. The woman at the counter was friendly and helpful. After asking a few questions, I decided on the Passion Coco cake($5) and the Brown Sugar Pecan scone ($3.50). I enjoyed the Passion Coco cake slice. The coconut, passion fruit, and strawberry flavors worked well together, although the passion fruit flavor was very subtle. The sponge was cake moist, and the butter cream was spot on with its melt-in-your-mouth creamy texture. The Brown Sugar Pecan scone was good, but it had more of a dense muffin texture than a traditional scone, and the flavors were a bit muted. They did not skimp on the pecans though, which was nice. I would have enjoyed bolder flavors and a more traditional scone texture. Overall, I found that the walk in options are limited, but a great spot for locals to stop in and pick up tasty baked goods-and I would definitely order one of their beautiful and delicious looking cakes for a special occasion.

For our wedding, we had a highly custom request for a wedding cake (Maplestory themed!), so we…read moreconsulted with Natalie before purchasing. She was extremely nice and accommodating, even outside of the bakery's business hours since we were super late. We taste tested and loved ALL the flavors, but ended up with matcha, ube, and vanilla. During the day of the wedding, Natalie and her team promptly delivered this beautiful 3 tiered custom themed cake. It was completely hassle free (I don't even know when she dropped it off on the hectic day), and exactly how we imagined it to be. Additionally all the guests loved the design and especially the flavor, so we were definitely feeling a little proud for choosing for this place. Thank you Natalie for this amazing cake!!

I can't believe I haven't written a review for a business my kids and I frequent all the time!…read moreWe've been coming to Always Yours since it opened. Hands down they have the best drinks, cookies, macarons, cakes, and now salt bread! I always come to get treats for my kid's teachers (for their birthdays, teacher appreciation week, just because, etc.). I've brought friends visiting the Bay Area to this bakery, which they have loved. Always Yours also has fun cup sleeve events, macaron classes and afternoon tea from time to time. We love supporting small businesses and this one is definitely worth supporting! P.S. with all these drink places popping up in the area...we still think the drinks at Always Yours not only taste better, but also are of higher quality.

Today was a terrible day, I was upset and saw a booth for cupcakes at the Castro Valley Street…read moreEats. Just what I needed, something sweet. The booth was super cute and each cupcake was individually boxed. They also had French Vanilla and Maple Bacon cupcakes, red velvet cookies, apple pie (only $5) and caramel squares (yum!!). I choose the Mocha one and boy was I surprised... I swear, this cupcake is one of the best I've ever had. The frosting was light and not too sweet, the cake was light and fluffy (chocolatey flavor too). Right now, I'm sitting here wishing I had bought a dozen to eat all myself...to eat my sorrows out with this delicious goodness. Final Thoughts: Next time I have an event in need of a cake (or even a company party).... and maybe my future wedding, I will definitely be calling Desserts First!!

My sister bought several Goddess Noir cakes to have with Mother's Day brunch at her place. I'd…read morenever heard of them, but not only were they beautiful, they tasted sooo very good. The cakes are miniature little things that we cut up into four slices of each. We had chocolate, marble, and gluten-free sweet potato. I'm not usually a fan of cake or cupcakes, but these were exquisite. They weren't overly sweet, which was so refreshing. I had a piece of the chocolate cake and it was heavenly. Everyone agreed they were absolutely delicious. I don't know much about this company except they are based in Oakland and woman-owned. I hope they do well.

The dessert table at our wedding held deeply personal significance, and we're grateful to Brittany…read moreat Goddess Noir for helping us bring that to life. Our dessert table wasn't just about having yummy treats at our wedding--it held deep personal significance. We had lost both of the bride's parents and another important mother figure before our big day, and we wanted to honor their memory alongside the groom's parents who were there to celebrate with us. We chose specific desserts that represented each parent, as a way of keeping their presence felt through the idea of food, the most timeless way parents show their love. In addition to having some delicious desserts on her standard menu that suited some parents, Brittany worked with us to make a strawberry shortcake (not something she normally serves) in honor of the bride's father. We ended up bringing in two of the desserts from other vendors, and she plated those beautifully as well. Admittedly, there were a couple communication challenges during the course of working together which caused a bit of a scramble in the week leading up to our wedding to ensure that Brittany could properly plate the outside desserts. However, in the end she really brought our vision to life, and we heard from many of our guests both how beautiful our dessert table was and how delicious the desserts were.
