    Jess was great to work with and made an absolutely beautiful 50th anniversary cake for a party. We…read moreordered a 8 inch round cake and a half sheet for about 100 people. The cakes were supposed to serve 70 people or so. We ended up having quite a lot of cake left- the entire round cake and maybe an eighth or so of the sheet cake. The round cake was pretty hard to cut due to the height so I think we should have had the venue slice this first - sheet cake was a lot easier to pack back up and transport. That sort of made me wonder if I should have even ordered a round cake but it was definitely stunning and added a lot in terms of aesthetics and looked great in pictures. Jess was great to work with and did a great job checking in when needed. I ended up sending her a design for the round cake and she made something really lovely. She also found some gorgeous real flowers for the cake and sent me all the different options so I knew what to choose from. She even ended up adding some details to the sheet cake even though these are often left plain just for serving. We had discussed not wanting the cake to be too sweet and I think it was probably a bit too sweet still for myself and most guests. The actual cake itself was perfect in terms of texture and also flavor and sweetness and was so much better than most if not all cakes I have had. However the buttercream texture wasn't my favorite and I found it to be a bit sweeter than expected. I also wanted there to be a lot more triple berry butter cream/berry flavor. Some of the issue was also deciding to add a white chocolate layer (our suggestion so definitely on us) which didn't help the texture or flavor. Ultimately a solid cake and the vanilla bean cake itself was pretty spectacular. If I order again in the future, I would just discuss ways to make the outside buttercream less intense and find ways to incorporate more of the fruit flavors of the berry buttercream filling. A bunch of guests did ask me about the cake and say they enjoyed it so that was good. I did shop around a small amount and the prices were competitive. I had a very positive experience overall. The cakes were also easy to pick up and well packaged - if you have some kind of large flat surface like a foldable seat or back of an SUV you should be good. I would definitely order again for a party but probably would opt for even fewer portions and would make those notes about the flavors.

    Baby shower was yesterday and had to come and write a review, that's how good the cake was! We…read moreasked for delivery, cake was on time and setup was great and super quick, even put our topper for us. All everyone kept saying was how good the cake was. Flavors and texture were amazing like a freshly baked cake. This was my first time buying, but definitely won't be the last! Thank you!!

    What a beautiful bakery tucked in the corner of the west hills area of Los Angeles…read more You are welcomed with a friendly and cozy bakery and the woman behind the counter was very kind. There is a gelato section on the right with a cookie and pastry display case that definitely opens your eyes with excitement. Since it was Mother's Day this weekend we got these flower meringues as well as some chocolate/tiramusu cakes. You can definitely tell these were handled with care. There were pretty good but I do wish the Tiramusu was a little denser but that is just my palette. Pricing was a little above average for items but then again, it seems like everything everywhere is these days. Also, it is unfortunate they aren't open sundays. Will I be back? Most likely yes! This time, earlier because it seems like by the afternoon a lot of the stuff was gone which means they are doing something right!

    This is one of my favorite if not my most favorite bakery. The owner is such a joy to talk to and…read moreI've never once had bad service. The gelato is fantastic and the serving sizes are generous and extremely delicious! The danishes are to DIE for, and I have never eaten something from this place that wasn't fresh and extremely delicious. The place is not usually packed which blows my mind when it's so good! The owner is SUCH a sweetheart and remembers us every time we come by, and the last time we came by the cheese and apricot danishes (my new favorite because of this place) were hot and freshly glazed right out of the oven. I've had danishes from a few other places, and this place completely outshines them. I'm always excited to try a new pastry from this place. 100000000/10, I cannot recommend this place enough!!!!

    Had them for the first time on my birthday, though definitely on the pricy side…read more But they're so beautiful! Accidentally held one cupcake sideways just as I opened the door home, so the frosting got smushed but obviously didn't affect the flavor. I think this review will be heavily biased by user error thus the 5 stars though my feelings are more on 3 stars. Since we were all busy, we'd have to eat them around 10+ hours after buying and to make sure nobody accidentally ate them before my birthday; we stored them in the fridge instead of room temp which clearly did something to the frosting and cakes. Family's average favorites in order are red velvet, the confetti, cookies and cream, smores, and strawberry. The red velvet is pretty good, it's pretty rich and moist compared to the other cupcakes and the cream cheese frosting is so nice. S'mores has a strong dark cocoa flavor but also was dense and a little dry. Strawberry and confetti had nice fluffy frosting but due to the fridge mistake, it was kinda like eating chilled whipped butter. I strangely really enjoyed that. Confetti also felt and tasted like corn bread; I wasn't there to choose or see the flavors, but it was a fascinating surprise when I kept chewing and felt grit between my teeth. I didn't expect the birthday cupcake to taste like a southern take on fairy bread? But it isn't bad! Overall, I feel like they're a nice place for a little treat--the red velvet is definitely their signature for a reason. But for ~$7-10 a cupcake the flavors we chose seem to lack a reason to come back :( Unless you have dietary restrictions! I didn't try them but they have keto, vegan, and gluten free options; I know how hard it is to find a bakery that honors all 3. I also got my cupcake in one of those adorable birthday boxes (bearer of the unfortunate frosting carnage so no photo) but the butterfly is so cute! They're definitely worth a visit once, the bread puddings looked fun too, but unfortunately it seems the cupcakes are just not my cup of tea.

    Decided to pick up a few pastries and cakes just because. Love the service and of what's available…read moreto choose for an impromptu celebration or treat ! Doan's isn't just a place we order celebratory cakes but also pick something up to make a random Tuesday evening feel special

    Not sure if it's worth driving to The Valley just for cake, but What Would Ethan Hunt Do?…read more Like I'm sure at least 30% of their clientele, I first heard about Doan's when multiple news outlets started posting about the magical White Chocolate Coconut Bundt Cake that Tom Cruise gifts colleagues and associates every year right before Christmas. Whatever you think of Tom Cruise, he is a towering figure in entertainment and thus a pillar of Los Angeles civic pride... if Pete "Maverick" Mitchell esteems a piece of dessert to this degree, who are we mere mortals to ignore such ambrosia? You can get a whole 10" cake delivered to you anywhere in America for $140... or you can make the trek out to Woodland Hills and get it for much less. For a simple "taste test" if you're counting calories or afraid of commitment, they also have Mini Bundt Cakes about the size of a large slice of cake for individual or shared enjoyment. The cake is good: I wouldn't say it's great... although I suppose to someone like Tom who rarely ever consumes sugar, it probably tastes like Heaven. Sweet but not teeth-achingly so, the mix of cream cheese frosting, coconut flakes, white chocolate chips, and coconut bundt cake really reminds me of something grandma would serve you when you'd go for a visit... Definitely would go great with some hot coffee with lots of cream and sugar. I got a Mini Bundt Cake and a cookie for $21.50... not the most affordable treat but also not an absurd price for something that has reached near-mythical status. Would I drive to The Valley just for this? That's a big HELL NO from me... but if I'm in the area and looking for something sweet and a story to go with it, Doan's Bakery provides a fantastic option.
