The only thing that's difficult for me is the hours of operation because I don't live locally. Everything I've ever ate from Sugarbee's is absolutely amazing and delicious. Their buttercake slices are a must must must. I love lemon bars and their's is perfect to me! The cake decorations are creative and stunning. read more

Hands down one of the best places to get your keto fix! It's hard to find a bakery that sales keto items... let alone more than a handful of different choices. Definitely a must try if you're on the keto journey! read more

Disappointing breakfast. First, the place is tiny. Not very stroller friendly, as there is a step up right at the front door. We were the only ones there and ordered 3 sandwiches. They took a really long time (close to 10 minutes). It was too long for this type of walk-up cafe. Also, it's kind of annoying when there's isn't anywhere to really sit or maneuver your stroller and 8 month pregnant body. The sandwiches were ok. The breakfast panini was TINY and the classic was ok. I felt like the waffle was undercooked. They egg was a pre-mixed egg patty thing. It was a good size though. The few pastries they had out sounded good. I might come back to try one. Edit to add RE: seating There was construction going on in the hallway and the alleyway was closed. I suggest taking a peak around for open tables before getting your food if you hope to sit-down. RE: Accessible entrance I've learned you just have to go around the other side to enter. A sign on the door or even the cashier giving me the tip would have saved some trouble. And my iced tea from spilling! read more

Sugarbee Custom Bake Shop - The Classic and Breakfast Panini. I was so bummed they weren't delicious. - Desserts Near Me - Redlands, California

We are so excited that we can get Keto baked goods close to home! We especially love the peanut butter bars & brownies. Highly recommend!

This place is amazing! They went above and beyond for my crazy order and I could not be happier. I ordered a dozen and a half cupcakes and asked for them to be individually packaged so I could hand them out to friends and family. I even got some that were vegan and Sugarbees did it all-above and beyond what was expected. The ladies were helpful and generous and I will definitely be going back. Thank you Sugarbees! read more

Called last week to see if they can accommodate a last minute cake order and the girl was super sweet (I think her name is Krista) and did what she could to accommodate my request which I so appreciate!!! We got two cakes, vanilla and a lemon cake. Cakes were slightly a little too sweet but the lemon cake with a strawberry filling was pretty tasty. The only disappointment was that the shopkins cake wasn't exactly like the pictures she showed me but overall it was still cute and what was annoying was that the eyeballs on both cakes kept falling off and the eyelash on the pony broke and fell off. Prices were reasonable for size and design. Parking for the place is complete crap. I would def be back for more cakes just hope they hold up better then the ones I received this weekend. read more

Candace made the perfect Harry Potter/ Jurassic Park cake for me. The customer service was great, even with a weird request like a Harry Potter T-Rex theme. The cake was perfectly chocolatey and moist, and beautifully decorated. I highly recommend Sugarbee for any event you have that would need a cake! read more

My first time ordering from Sugarbee and I am happy I did! The cake was so adorable, and it tasted good too! Everyone I spoke/wrote with were very upbeat, sweet, and great to interact with. I will definitely order from here again, and recommend them to everyone. read more

Absolutely disgusting of you to say I cussed at your employee!!! Not only do you have poor customer service you are a down right liar!!! I asked your employee about reminders and she was unsure, at that point I knew she was not the owner. She was actually kind! Who knows what else you would lie about?! How would you expect someone to trust you with their bakery needs knowing you are a liar! I simply suggested to you to send out reminders to your customers of their pick up time and date, but unfortunately your unprofessional attitude couldn't handle a suggestion. Grow UP! read more

I've been here awhile ago and it was okay .. recently went back and nothing! I walked in with hoping to grab a cupcake for my daughter I seen the lady in the back but I'm assuming she didn't hear the door open or the little bell ring we waited a while. I decided to just leave since there wasn't much left anyways. We won't be back read more

Stopped in today, haven't been in for a year or so. They had wonderful paleo desserts. A butter cake and a raspberry cake ( like a coffee cake). Had a nice cup of coffee back at my office with my afternoon treat ! Call in your order for pick up! Loved it. read more

This is my favorite provider of baked goods in the world. I've been everywhere but never have I tasted such exquisite foods in my life. Very friendly staff that are willing to answer all questions and are very friendly. A trip to California would be incomplete without stopping by this American landmark! read more

I've only had the Mint Chocolate cupcake and the Plain Jane. Both very good. They were very moist. I recommend you give this place a shot support your local businesses. read more

I cannot say enough about Sugarbee--other than they are going to make me fat. I have been eating there since they opened and I love most everything they make. It is really just great food; the sandwiches have always been to die for and the cupcakes are additive. I love this place so much I had them do the cake and catering for my wedding and it went phenomenally well--they were the most organized of anyone there. We had a lemon mascarpone cake and both lemon lavender and banana coconut cupcakes (most of which I ate). They also did a waffle bar for us that everyone was talking about--it was truly my favorite part of the wedding. read more

I love desserts and was excited to find out when this place opened in DTR. It's been quite some time since it opened, but I finally went here as I saw a Labor Day promotion for $2 butter cakes, cupcakes and brownies and I happened to be in the area. I went there right when it opened at 10 AM, going through the entrance in the back where nearby CheeseWalla is located. The shop is pretty small, but simple and cute. The menu is limited to the desserts I mentioned plus a few more items, such as avocado toast, floats, and coffee. I went ahead and ordered one butter cake and one strawberry cupcake to go. I tried both items and I was not a fan of either. The butter cake was way too sweet to enjoy; I could not finish it. The cupcake was moist but tasted as if it was made from the box. Sorry to say, but I guess my taste buds were expecting a bit more in terms of taste and quality. I would give this place another try but probably not anytime soon. read more

Heard they opened up shop here in Redlands and I was excited to see what baked goodies they had to munch on. Went there to pick up some baked goodies and found they have a lot more on their menu. They have baked goodies and lunch goodies like paninis and waffle sandwiches. I asked about what the best seller is (the queen bee and the stinger) and decided to get two paninis to taste them. Side note: while asking about the menu I found out they change the baked goodies menu every week. So expect something new/fresh every week. I ordered the buffalo chicken on sourdough bread and pescara (pepperoni and cheese) on croissant bread. I also ordered a donut cupcake. The buffalo chicken tastes like any buffalo chicken wing you can get your hands on. The sourdough bread is the only plus. The pescara tastes like a quickly made pepperoni and cheese sandwich. Again, the only plus is the croissant bread. I feel they are on point with the bread choice. ***The donut cupcake*** A chocolate cupcake with mint colored frosting and topped with a sprinkled purple glazed donut. I was fooled. I expected the donut to be a donut and found out it was sponge cake shaped and decorated to look like a donut. I was not impressed with the taste of the decorated sponge cake. The chocolate cupcake and frosting was alright. It was very light and sweet like any cupcake. Overall everything tasted good, however, they did not amaze me enough to go back ever. read more

I ordered a "simple order" on their website which I think was super convenient! I ordered I believe the masculine drip cake, the only thing was the color of the icing was grey instead of the green shown the toppings were obviously not the same but that didn't really matter because it still looked amazing. The only real thing was the color of it but at the end it's okay. Everyone loved the cake ! Received many compliments and although I didn't taste it I was told it tasted delicious. One other thing is I called the day I was suppose to pick up and no one answered the phone I called about 10 times I believe and my call was never picked up. But I did message them on Instagram and they responded right away. They are under remodeling so I can see how that may have effected them answering my call but it was a bit frustrating. All in all though will definitely be using them again ! read more

I don't like to leave bad reviews. I would rather just say nothing. However, my overall experience has remained on my mind and therefore needs to be shared. First, the cake that I ordered for my son and daughter-in-laws baby shower was truly beautiful! Exactly like the picture I provided. Unfortunately, the cake itself was really disappointing. The first tier was white cake with raspberry filling and was pretty good. The second tier however, was absolutely horrible. I had asked for marble cake with an Oreo filling - understanding that the cake would be a white and chocolate marble. (which made perfect sense with an Oreo cookie filling). It came a yellow and chocolate marble. The texture was dense, very very dry and had a minimal amount of Oreo filling. It was so disappointing and embarrassing. Our guests expressed that they were not impressed and sadly most of a $160.00 cake was thrown away because nobody wanted to take any home. The cake is the centerpiece of an occasion. Being beautiful is really important but being moist and delicious is paramount. Lastly, when I called the Thursday before to ask what time my son could pick up the cake, the lady who answered seemed bothered by my call and was rude. When my son picked the cake up the following day, he experienced the same thing. He came back saying that the woman who helped him had been really rude. With all that we had going on in preparation for the baby shower, we did not think to get a name. We should have though. read more

I love this place for all keto and non keto items.. they have helped me when i couldn't get baking goods int he store..

I saw on their website and Instagram that they have keto products and that is what appealed to me. I ordered a keto cake for my anniversary and at first I was worried about how it was going to taste, but it was SO GOOD! They only have chocolate keto cake so far, but I hope and wish that many more cake options or flavors are offered for keto products. I would reorder this cake again! In addition, it is better to order online or reach out via email than call by phone. When you call, it automatically sends you to the machine and tells you that you cannot leave a message. read more

I really love supporting small businesses so I stopped by for my son's first birthday to get our family cupcakes. I understand they probably focus on cakes but the girl there that day seemed really bothered to have stopped what she was doing to ring us up. I would suggest not having that option so customers don't feel bad wanting to stop by just for a cupcake. The cupcakes presentation was cute but the taste was just alright. Probably won't go there again. It's a real bummer. read more

I wanted to order a cake for my mother, but I live out of town. The Sugar Bee staff was helpful and accommodating over the phone. The cake was beautiful and tasty - a lovely shade of lavender, just as we had ordered! read more

Great bakery, love to stop in for cupcakes whenever I'm at market night. They did a fabulous job on my son's little artist birthday cake. He loved it! It came out just like the pic i sent and they did a few small modifications I asked for with no issues. The cake and filling were delicious. The fondant was a tad thick but it probably needed to be to hold the cake together so perfectly and support the weight of the toppings. I placed my order online and communicated all my requests via email. Great experience. Love this place! read more

Sugarbee Custom Bake Shop - Awesome custom cake! - Desserts Near Me - Redlands, California

In the city of Redlands (or anyplace) when you think about lunch foods, the thought of going to a bakery doesn't come to mind. Sugarbee Cafe is the exception to that rule. They offer many breakfast and lunch options, and just like their cakes and stuff the food is simply yummy I love the inviting and friendly staff and owners treating customers like guests in their home, rather than at a business. read more

We visited Sugarbee during their Grand Opening weekend and it was worth the drive all the way to Redlands!! A quaint little café with adorable décor & the smell of the baked goods makes you want to order everything from their menu. After much debate we tried these items: The Stinger - Very flavorful chicken and waffle combo, would definitely try it with the gluten free waffle next time, we heard it's crispier in texture. Caprese Panini - My mouth waters thinking about this one, just such a great flavor and texture in your mouth. I love paninis and you could tell their bread & ingredients are just so fresh! Grilled Cheese - My kid finished it in no time! He rarely ever finish his sandwiches since he's more of a noddle or pasta boy, but this, he loves! I stole a bite and couldn't agree more. Crème Brulee Waffle - delicious waffle covered in crème brulee with the crunchy caramelized sugar on top & some fresh raspberries. I was so full from the panini but can't say no to dessert, I have to say this is a very huge portion of waffle! It is a shareable portion. We took home some other goodies to share with our relatives and they said they were all delicious! Our favorite was the butter cake, my husband isn't a dessert kind of guy but he totally ate the cake when I didn't see. He said it was very good! And that's a lot coming from a non-dessert guy. Now if only they are close to us in Orange County, so I can get more of that butter cake. Hope they open other locations in the future!! read more

I was greeted but not a warm greeting. Seemed like I annoyed the guy working. Came in and ordered a few cupcakes...they didn't look or taste great but I thought I'd give it a try. $3/each for the cupcakes. Eh. I saw some other things like a red velvet brownie, but again that didn't look amazing so it probably doesn't taste great. I probably won't be back....no great service. Lacking knowledge of what was in the cupcake, etc. Not sure what's up with all the other reviews...seems fake. read more

Butter cake is delicious and a craving I have every Thursday as we walk by during market night. However, with the new shorter hours we hardly ever make it by before closing. So in quick conclusion, sort of very inconvenient hours if you're at all busy during the day but awesome when able to make it by while doors are open. Also- the stinger waffle sandwich is a taste combination worth trying. Such a clever, tasty idea. My one note would be to hand batter and fry chicken fresh so that the texture and taste are even better. I'd be willing to wait a few extra minutes for that! read more

Went in for their grand opening this past weekend... And I couldn't be more pleased with their food selection and service... Tried the Honey Bee waffle sandwich which had crispy chicken, cream cheese and kiwi jalapeño jam... They had me at cream cheese... And with kiwi jalapeño? Can't go wrong... We also tried the breakfast bagel and The Stinger, both were great as well. My favorite though was the Creme Brûlée waffle... The waffle itself was fluffy and with the Creme Brûlée on top along with the raspberry, it makes a perfect combination in your mouth... I like a bit of savory and sweet in my dessert so I added a touch of salt on top and it kicked it up a notch even more. If you are there, ask them for their housemade syrup... I swear it is sugar and butter goodness in liquid form...I want to just dip everything in that syrup... I bought some to take home and drizzled it on plain donuts, on toast, on waffle and some other stuff... I wish I had gotten more... Definitely a place to check out when you're around the area... I guess many people has been anticipating them to open because when we were walking off our breakfast around town and I had a Sugarbee cup in my hand, some people asked me if they were open and they have been wanting to try this place out since they saw one of the owner compete on Food Network Cupcake War... read more

I love this place. I have been here a few times and I am always satisfied. The waffle sandwiches are incredible, but they also have panini's and baked goods in a case. I had a caprese panini and a strawberry lemonade it's my favorite combo and I also took a cinnamon roll home and it was so good it tastes freshly homemade (perfect with a coffee btw) The caprese has tomato, spinach, and mozzarella cheese and balsamic on a bomb sourdough bread. One of my fav places in such a cute downtown spot. read more

Okay I waited way to long to check this place out!! Omgheee it was amazing and it's such a special place. I had the vegan Caprese sandwich.

I had anxiously anticipated going here ever since seeing them on cake wars. I had heard a lot of friends taking it up and decided to drop in. It was in the afternoon during their new hours in the first week of summer. I've waited to write this review to see if I still felt the same. Sadly, I do. I ordered two cupcakes and a soda in a can. The bill was a $8-9. Compared to other bakeries in the area, including Riverside, they were a bit small. Cute designs, but ultimately, just average in taste. The cake was very moist, I will say that. The frosting on my donut cupcake was, I hate to say, not good. It tasted overly artificial due probably to the blue food coloring and I am not a fan of whipped cream frosting. The most disappointing part was the cashier not knowing what was in most of the items when asked. I have specific allergies so I asked what was in their berry pastry and she didn't know so she asked lady who entered from the kitchen wearing a chef's coat who replied, "Berries," sarcastically, "Blueberries and blackberries" then smiled at the cashier and walked off. Not great customer service at all. This wasn't playful either. I guess the take away is, especially in Redlands, HOW you treat customers who decide to choose your establishment is just as important as the quality. read more

We would give Sugarbee and Daisy 10 stars if we could. We had to order our son's birthday cake remotely and she was incredibly patient, understanding and accommodating. The cake was absolutely delicious and so fresh. We look forward to having another opportunity to order from them. The staff and the desserts are incredible! Thank you for helping make my son's birthday memorable! read more

Sugarbee Custom Bake Shop - Be sure to try anything at least once. This place is new in town with a lot of delicious personality.Thank you!!! - Desserts Near Me - Redlands, California

I got married October 1st and had an aggressive work schedule that didn't allow me to place my wedding cake order 3 weeks in advance like most bakers required. When I walked into Sugarbee they worked with me and explained that my two tier cake was something simple for them to do. This is what a bride needs to hear. The owner is an expert baker and simply said that two weeks was plenty of time to place an order because a naked white cake for 50 people is something that any baker should have the ability to do. She was awesome.! It was such a relief to to hear that. read more

I like to support local business when I can. Rather than eating at a chain, decided I'll give this place a try. I ordered the stack of two waffles with strawberries and cream. & the Denver waffle. I went in with high expectations. Based on all the reviews. Yes everything tasted fresh and made from scratch. But it was just ok for me, "blaned" is the word I'm looking for. We don't have a Waffle House in California. so I'm always on the lookout for a place that serves good waffles. Maybe they just need to play with the batter a little. Ad a little more flavor to it. I would come back for the pastries they did look delicious . Looking forward to tasting the brownies. read more

If I could only leave my 5 stars and one word.. it would be AMAZING!!!! I went in right before closing since I was on a late lunch from work, And still got a great sandwich. Usually going to a place that's getting ready to close I expect something in-edible lol. Not here! I got the turkey club with avocado and it was delicious! The waffle that looked a little bit like too much bread, was the perfect amount. On to desserts. I purchased a coffee cake muffin thing and it was moist and perfectly sweet! I also purchased a piece of the butter cake and OMG I couldn't wait to get home to eat it. Overall this place is great. Fresh made sandwiches and even better desserts. I will be back soon even if it's just for the butter cake!!! :) read more

Stopped in to this new location here in Redlands. Staff was friendly. I ordered a few item from the menu. Creme brûlée waffle, spicy waffle sandwich called "The Stinger", lemon raspberry cupcake and a purple macaron. All were delicious. Hope all goes well for this business here. We'll be back. read more
