    Amazing! Josel is so sweet and amazing to work with. We decided pretty late what kind of wedding cake we wanted to do and Josel immediately made time for us to discuss what we were looking for and meet with us to do a tasting. Quality of the cake is great and flavors were so good. We kept sending her inspo pictures of the type of marble look we were going for and she would create samples of it and send us pictures. We provided our feedback and she adjusted and sent more samples until it was perfect. We also wanted an invisible tier and she was able to find one exactly the same as the sample pictures we showed her. She was so easy to work with and would highly recommend. We are so happy we went with her for our cake!

    If you're looking for custom cakes, desserts she's the one that can do it all. She very easy to get along with and will communicate and get you what you need. Took me by surprise w this cake. I really didn't expect it to look that good. You just have to let her know in advance set up the date. I will most def go back to her again when I need a custom cake. Great customer service. Keep doing what you love

    Everyone raved on how great it tasted and it was absolutely beautiful. The Vanilla De Leche was amazing! There were so many flavors to choose from. I highly recommend Sweet Escake!

    Our first time to order a customize cake from the very sweet and kind owner Josel, and we love it for sure we will keep on coming back to order again!. Also we tried the chocolate crinkles its to die for! Highly recommended to those who want a delicious customize cake! She will also help you how to find the right cake for the said occasion-all in all delish cake and a generous owner.

    She turned our DREAM WEDDING CAKE into reality. I gave her all the pictures of our cake inspiration and she was able to incorporate everything. It's not just the design that was great but also the TASTE OF THE CAKE!!! Omg, you can't find that flavor anywhere. It's only with sweetescake! We thought that we will be having our favorite flavors for our wedding(chocolate or red velvet) but we ended up getting her Specialty flavor! A MUST TRY!!! And now our favorite We ordered a three-tier cake and gosh!!! If only that was zero calories. We would finish everything! Will recommend her for all custom and non-custom cakes! Thank you so much, Josh!!!

    Wedding cake - vanilla buttercream with real fresh mango filling!

    If you're looking for a delicious, gorgeous and best of all affordable cake for your event then look no further! Josel did our 3-tier wedding cake and we couldn't be happier!! Josel is an aspiring wedding cake baker and wow is she a hidden gem. Josel gave us the all-star treatment and allowed us to try 4-5 different flavors before deciding on vanilla with buttercream and real mango filling to fit our Polynesian themed wedding. She also provided all the floral for a small additional cost which not many other bakers do. She came to our home for the tasting and delivered the cake at our venue in perfect condition in Moorpark, CA. I couldn't have asked for a better experience. Plus everyone, I mean EVERYONE, loved our cake!! Some people told me it was even some of the best wedding cake they've ever had! It's not overly sweet and Josel will customize it to your liking based on the tasting (she is so easy to work with!). She was also hundreds of dollars more affordable than some local bakeries that have to pay for staff/a shop, which is great for most brides like me on a budget but still wants their dream cake! Seriously book Josel - you won't regret it! I am recommending her to all my friends getting married!!

    The cake are made to an extremely high standard and not only do look stunning but the taste are amazing!!!Highly recommended!!!I will surely order again!!!

I also ordered a bagel with cream cheese, which they offered to toast for me. The food came out pretty quickly and the person taking my order was pretty patient with me taking my time to look at their menu. The ambiance was nice too - it seems like a cozy enough place for people to hang out and I even saw someone working on their laptop for awhile.

The latte was strong and not too sweet. The blueberry syrup they used didn't mix well with the drink and I had clumps of it in the bottom, no matter how hard I stirred it. This meant that some sips had no blueberry flavor and others too much. My brother got the Hibiscus Desert Rose Iced Tea. It was good but not necessarily anything special. Also, the cream/milk they added to it kept separating. The biggest thing for me was the price. It was around $25 for both of our drinks which is very expensive. If the drinks were incredible then I wouldn't have as much of a problem with it, but I don't think they are worth the price.

If you go in summer do not skip the Japanese ice, The ice is flown in from Japan, and I had the strawberry. It was absolutely delicious--light, delicate, and incredibly refreshing. It's a special seasonal treat you won't want to miss. I also took a picture of the Matcha ice. I purchased the strawberry ganache pastry and also got a Matcha ice drink to go on ice. Everything was absolutely phenomenal. I also always appreciate a self-serve water station that's so pretty and maintained. Every aspect of Le Hérisson is so elevated, beautiful, and thoughtfully curated. My only little suggestion would be to consider putting the more delicate pastries, like the raspberry ganache I ordered, in a small box rather than a paper bag. Something this beautiful deserves to arrive looking just as beautiful--and mine unfortunately got a little smooshed on the takeout What an amazing hidden treasure to have right here in Simi Valley. A French-Japanese pâtisserie this special feels like such a wonderful find, and the easy parking makes it even better. Thank you! Support local.

I honestly don't know why I waited so long because wow everything was delicious. The flavors were bold, rich, and absolutely delightful. I ordered the Popeye, a fresh-baked puff pastry with egg, bacon, spinach, and Parmesan cheese, along with the Caprese Danish, which was my absolute favorite! It reminded me of a margherita pizza, and I will definitely be ordering it again. For my drink, I got the Iced Chocolate Blend, and the little girl in me was screaming with excitement it was so rich and delicious, almost like a lightly thick chocolate malt. It definitely did not disappoint! The restaurant itself is super cute, with both indoor and outdoor seating available and awesome music playing throughout the café, which creates such a fun and lively atmosphere. The staff was incredibly friendly and worked hard to keep up with the morning crowd, all while greeting everyone with a smile. One suggestion: Le Harisson should showcase their drinks more because the Iced Chocolate Blend deserves way more attention. Highly recommend! They also have a great variety Matcha and Japanese Teas MUST TRY!

They have amazing teas, matchas, coffees... and even lunch items like sandwiches and savory pastries with meat and cheese. I visited for the first time two months ago and i've been back regularly- more than once a week. The service is great, everyone is very helpful. It's clean and there's music and you can hang out and enjoy your treats in a pretty & modern setting. Each pastry / bread item is priced between $1.50-$4.00 each... and i'm telling you - this place blows starbucks out of the water. you'll never want to grab a quick pastry from there ever again...!

I've been to Italy multiple times and grew up around Italian baking, and this is hands down the best frittelle I've ever tasted. Light, golden, and filled with vanilla custard, then finished with a dusting of powdered sugar, it was truly unforgettable.

Within ten seconds of walking in, I was greeted by Ama, who set the tone for the whole visit. She was warm, welcoming, and attentive throughout. She even let me sample different gelato flavors and suggested some great dishes to try on my next visit. That kind of thoughtfulness goes a long way. The affogato here is on another level. Most places serve it in a paper cup where the espresso and gelato just blend into a mushy mess. Not here. Carrara's presents it beautifully on a stone tray, with a proper espresso cup and a transparent glass so you can actually see the layers of gelato and espresso. And Ama personally poured the espresso tableside, which really topped off the whole experience. Great food, great service, great atmosphere. Will definitely be back.

Some of the flavors were really delicious. And some of them needed a little tweaking with the recipe I felt. My family and my neighbors also felt the same. Some were really good and some of them just needed a little work. I had read some of the reviews before going and I'm so glad I did. The hours are all over the place.

I would have been upset if I drove all the way over and they were closed. For the flavors, the banana cream was one of my favorites. I liked the white chocolate raspberry and the salted caramel. The pumpkin spiced donut sounded amazing but I was disappointed. It lacked flavor. The cookie dough I didn't love either.

Hours vary as they're only open until they sell out of various flavors or cheesecake. Service was friendly and the lady answered all my questions.

My wife and I both dug into a lemon cheesecake topped with a tasty lemon bar and were full before we could finish it. I'm a lemon bar fan so I stole the most of the lemon bar. Even without the bar on top, the lemon glaze gives it a nice lemon flavor while the cheesecake itself is light yet rich in flavor. That's this critic's review, until next time, I'll be eating.
