Need something sweet? Scroll no further... Sweet Reba's will satisfy. We picked up the pumpkin spice cookie sandwich... no, I didn't stutter... the peanut butter chocolate sandwich cookie... wait for it, and a slice of the raspberry lemonade cake. I had a warm cappuccino in one hand and the pumpkin spice sandwich cookie in the other. One bite, just one, eyes closed and I had a moment. The cookie had a perfect crisp and chewy texture flavored with warm notes of ginger, nutmeg, and cinnamon. The filling was pumpkin heaven. Had to save the other sandwich cookie and the slice of cake for later because this sandwich cookie stands alone. Next time you're in Carmel stop by Sweet Reba's for a sinful treat... don't worry the Carmel Mission is down the street... you can absolve your gluttony there... read more

So Disappointed!!!!!!! We were only in town for a few days to pick a cake for our Wedding. We went to Reba's based on reviews, tasted 7 different cakes, All DRY and lacks flavor except the hummingbird which is a banana cake something we do not want for our wedding. We love cakes so this was a shock that we didn't even want to take more then 2 bites of them! Honestly we can not understand all the glowing reviews...maybe their other baked goods is their saving grace! Since we have no way of tasting any other bakery's we will be making our own! I would NOT order their cakes. read more

I wanted to love Sweet Rebas. I decided to try a new bakery for my dads 70th birthday . I called on a Tuesday and ordered for Saturday January 17 gave the date twice just to make sure needless to say I showed up on Saturday at 3 for my cake and pie and both were not made. They offered to deliver it to me later after 6 but being that the party was at 4 it wouldn't work. When you order in advance it's with the expectation that it will be ready. I had to try and find another birthday cake causing a very bad taste in my mouth for this bakery. read more

I came here based on the yelp reviews. I took off 2 stars because when I got there no one was wearing a mask, or gloves...I saw the baker (lady) taste test a dessert as I was ordering. She didn't seem concerned if anyone was looking. I prayed that my mom and I would be ok after eating them. I had a peanut butter cookie which was good, but could've used more peanut butter and been a little softer. The morning glory was good 4/5. Red velvet cake didn't have much flavor, & the icing didn't taste like cream cheese as her site states- my mom said she'd give it a 3/5. The blueberry cake slice, and blackberry lavender lemon slice she gave 4/5. The cinnamon donut cakes were nothing but sugar, no flavor! I don't plan on coming back, but everything was moist & customer service was good. My mom got a birthday discount too! read more

Cherry chocolate cookie! If you see it, get it. Brownies were out of this world. The lemon bar was tasty. Muffins are nothing special.

Sweet Reba's not only took my long-distance cupcake order for a client's birthday, but will also deliver them to their hotel! AND agreed to take down my transcribed note! stellar customer service, super friendly, and they look delicious. I'll certainly seek them out myself if I'm ever in Carmel, and will definitely call again if I never need a sweet treat for guests in the area. read more

Every thing is delicious! Got a wonderful birthday cake and love the donut muffins - the cookies are fabulous.

I had my little elopement wedding cake made with the carrot cake in a semi naked style. The reviews do not lie , their carrot cake really is one of the best I've had. And the cream cheese frosting, not to sweet. Overall the cake was both beautiful and delicious! And well decorated with flowers, figs and nuts, very similar to the photo I showed her. I look forward to buying more from this bakery. read more

Cakes look nice but overall did not feel welcomed. Owner was rude like I was interrupting her day. I'm sorry if I'm trying to ask you questions about things and you couldn't take the time to answer them cause you were busy. Hopefully you stay busy because with that rude attitude you must be one great cake decorator. Customer service in my opinion is the #1 reason I will buy, return and buy more or never return again. So I don't think I'll be recommending or buying from "Sweet" lol Rebas. Hopefully she treats others better. Idk maybe I didn't look like I could "afford" her time. I can't read her mind but you feel how you feel!!! read more

My family was visiting Carmel to celebrate my sister's 40th birthday. I called Sweet Reba's to order a cake and they could not have been nicer or made a more beautiful or delicious cake! We got the 8" Blackberry Lavender Lemon and everyone loved it (including the kids!) read more

See all

We happened upon this cute little place by accident while we were having lunch nearby. We kept seeing people walking up and leaving with these beautiful looking cookies. So we made our way over. We ordered 2 peanut butter, 1 oatmeal cranberry and 2 pupcakes for our pups. Wow, great cookies and our pups were quite happy too. We'll be by on our next trip through the area! Highly recommend this little place. Gonna try one of their 6 inch cakes next trip. read more

So, WE LOVE SWEET REBA's!. So for my 58th birthday I asked Reba if she could make a cake for me just like my Aunt May (Bless her heart) would have made for me when I was in my early teens. Not having the recipe she listened to how she would make it including the fine details and the cake tasted just like my Aunt May would make. It is this kind of true customer care that makes Sweet Reba's standout among ALL bakers in Monterey County!! Sweet Reba's love of baking, but more importantly her love of customers is what makes her just the finest bakery of all times! Stew read more

The best baked good in the area hands down!! Also the best prices!! Don't miss the $.50 donuts and the snickerdoodle cookie!!! Going back for more today!! read more

Lemon loaf was absolutely lovely! Distance ordering was clean and simple. Reba is a wonderful, supportive member of our local community and we are so lucky to have her. Thank you Reba! I will be back! read more

I really love Sweet Rebas and want to try everthing! So far her cakes are beyond wonderful, even better than Rosines. Soups are so good and so "homemade". I am a donut lover and there are not many good homemade donuts in Carmel so when I saw the Donut Cinnamon Muffins I couldn't wait. They are so beyond good but WAY TOO MUCH SUGAR for me. It was actually "gritty". Who knows, maybe most people actually want all that sugar and if so, I'm hoping she'll make half just lightly sugared because they were so warm and delish! Peanut Butter Bar, amazing! Hope she will make us some shortbread! read more

Damn that blondie is ridiculously amazing. I wanna go back and buy more today. Love the selection of baked goods and there's a special cake ready for a slice to go too. Nice people and great offerings made right there. I need to try the brownie. Love this place. read more

Amazing! Not only are her treats and cakes delish in the store but her custom cakes are out of this world! She has done a custom cake for my baby shower, baby's baptism, and a gluten free cake for my sister in law's wedding shower! They're beautiful and delicious and always delivered on time! read more

Never in my life have a had a baker if I wanted an edge piece or the middle(when ordering a bar). Blondies are the bomb! Cake was rich but the frosting was fluffy. So good!! Perfect texture combo!! read more

Quite simply the best cakes on the penninsula! Reba's cakes not only look amazing but taste amazing!! Her custom cakes are fantastic...her decorating skills awesome!! The carrot cake is the best carrot cake I have ever had next to my Moms. Her cookies are simply delish!! Do yourself and your tastebuds a favor and visit this place! If you need a custom cake ..this is the place to go!! read more

I first tried Sweet Reba's when she had a stall at the Old Monterey farmers market; the first things I tried were the carrot cake and the blondie. Ridiculously delicious! Not too long after that I saw her signage go up in the Crossroads and waited happily for the shop to open up. Since then I've tried many things. I still love the carrot cake and the blondie, but in addition I love the ginger cookies (especially when still warm), the coconut joy, and the coffee cake. I have never had coffee cake that is so deliciously memorable: the crumb is so tender and the flavors and textures are addictive...like so many of her things! One thing I really enjoy is that her goods are not that sweet and the high quality of the ingredients is obvious. I also always get great, friendly service. read more

Just had a slice of their strawberry shortcake which was out of this world! Everything else looked awesome, but I'm pacing myself and will be back to try the cookies and brownies/blondies. One suggestion to management: Please offer some teas to round out the dessert experience. In a word: Awesome! read more

so delicious! chocolate cake, donuts, lemon brownies to die for. Wish they open another bakery in HALF moon Bay!

Ending a 30 day road trip back east. New York and New England. Always alert for a bakery (sweet shop) that might be better than Sweet Reba's. Tried many. Couldn't find one better. Looking forward to getting back home. Back home to Sweet Reba's. read more

Great food and OMG SWEETS! You may want to do yourself a favor and go to Sweet Reba's. So nice to have this local treasure.

The endless is the best way a big freaking beat really fast service and they try to please you if there's things you specially like

Wow! What a delightful surprise. Perfect little business. The treats looked amazing, and tasted even better. Ordered a peanut butter brownie and a butterscotch chip brownie. After a bite of each, we had to then get some cookies for later. The brownies were delicious and moist. Ordered an oatmeal and cream sandwich cookie and a chocolate cherry cookie. Both were delicious. The oatmeal cream sandwich cookie was crazy good. I wish we were staying longer so I could try more items. It's the cutest little walk up window. Prices were great. Reba you absolutely nailed it. I have paid more for far less quality products. It is a MUST try little shop. read more

You will not be disappointed with all the delicious goodies from Sweet Reba's. Their blondies are out of this world! Our son has very bad food allergies so we ordered him a vegan cake, vegan snickerdoodle cookies and vegan chocolate chip cookies for various occasions and they were AMAZING. We would have never known the cookies were vegan - they were that good. Thank you Reba! read more

We stopped in yesterday on our way back to San Francisco and ended up getting an assortment of things to try: snickerdoodle and ginger spice cookie, a coffee cake muffin, a raspberry lemonade cupcake, a mini pineapple upside down cake, and a slice of gluten free red velvet cake. I am a really tough critic, particularly with baked goods since I am a baker myself, I am constantly buying and then tossing out baked goods that are just waaaay too sweet. I was amazed to find that every single one of the things we bought were really good, while they were all sweet (as would be expected of cakes, cookies and cupcakes) none were sweetened to the point of no longer being able to taste anything besides the sugar (which is how I experience most baked goods from other cakes shops). I loved that the cream cheese frosting still tasted cream cheesy, and the raspberry frosting on cupcake still had a strong berry flavor. I wish I would have discovered Reba's at the beginning of our visit to Carmel, rather than our last day, but I am happy we found them and will be sure to visit whenever we are back in the area. Truly exceptional baked goods all around. read more

In a random act of kindness, I asked the owners of Sweet Reba's where they got their hand sanitizer dispenser because ai needed several for my dental office. Not only did they tell me, but Michael of Sweet Reba's said he had an extra one and would give it to me! I tried to pay him but he refused, I was very touched please support these hard working Americans at their delicious new bakery in the Crossroads in Carmel, they even have Friday night dinner take out. Ron Kroll DDS read more

Most amazing cakes! We decided to try the "Cookies and Cream cake" for a birthday celebration and it was the best cake we have had, hands down! So glad to have an amazing bakery with interesting and delicious products in our community. read more

Liked the chocolate chip cookie because of the softness in the middle. I prefer something that is soft all over, however. The size of the cakes is problematic for me because it's huge, tall, too much. Hope they'll offer up some single layer cakes sometimes. Would be great if they could make some great bundt cakes like those previously sold at the Bundt store. Many of us miss those cakes. Good luck. read more

Just "discovered" this bakery when I was at the Crossroads Shopping Center today, although it opened in Oct 2019 - the owners are very nice, and the "Life by Chocolate" cake slice I tried was deliciously rich and chocolatey! Also ordered a cute cinnamon mini muffin (moist and flavorful) and a small cup of homemade Italian wedding soup w/ kale + sausage in clear chicken broth, an excellent lunch! You can taste the home cooked goodness in their food :) Looking forward to trying more of their selection next time. read more

I picked this place based on reviews and was not disappointed. The cake not only looked amazing but was delicious too. Thank you for helping make a special occasion even more so! read more

Thank you for making my surprise perfect! ordered a cake over the phone for my Wife's birthday during a weekend getaway. I was worried having never visited the store or being able to see the cake. I was very happy with the outcome. The cake was beautiful and delicious. They even put fresh flowers on the cake to make it special. Make Sweet Reba's your first choice for all baked goods. read more

I normally do not post reviews. I have given this bakery a few chances. I first ordered a birthday cake for my brother (carrot is his favorite). This cake was tasty and flavorful but overbaked. The devoration was very simple. I had hoped for better. My brother ordered myself a birthday cake the next month. It was a raspberry lemon. Again very overbaked..... crust was very dark and sponge dry. Little lemon curd and raspberry filling. We actually gave it away. Last chance Reba. We purchased two pies for Thanksgiving... pumpkin and pecan. Pecan had loads of pecans and less brown sugar filling.... but the crust I believe was phyllo. It became saturated with the sugar and cut like and tasted like wet cardboard. Pecan is my all time fave and this did not work..... also overbaked. The oumpkin was the only thing that was not overbaked but it lacked flavor... bland, not enough pumpkin spice. Sorry guys, we will. Not be back. read more

Sweet Reba's has delicious flavor combinations and is so easy to work with. Came from Texas for a destination wedding and everything was done over the phone and a few emailed pictures. She not only did the small individual wedding cake for my husband and I, but individually boxed cupcakes for our guests. (COVID was not going to stop us!) Blackberry Lavender Lemon, Life by Chocolate, and Apple Pie Cake were all a big hit. She did a birthday cake for my new father-in law's birthday the day after we got married, Lemon all the way, and she even tempted my husband with her Snickerdoodles, Brownies, and Blondies in the window display when we stopped by her store. Most excellent treats which everyone enjoyed and makes me wish we had a Sweet Reba's in Texas! read more

Delicious fresh baked treats. The crossroads smells like yumminess when she is baking. Reba is fantastic. She's a breath of fresh air and the antithesis of the couple that owns the crumby coffee shop a couple of doors away. read more

only 5 star bakery in town! the sweets are delicious! the breakfast, immaculate and the service is out of this world! whole experience nothing short of amazing. come with the kids they have options for all! read more
