After looking up some mochi places in the SD area on a whim, my boyfriend and I decided to stop by…read moreHogetsu Bakery whilst in Chula Vista! Located within a plaza of stores, it was pretty easy to find the bakery. My boyfriend and I parked right outside then walked in. It's a cute shop with a glass case displaying all of their mochi flavors - there was a lot of options! I knew immediately it was going to be difficult to make a decision. I asked the lady working at the counter about their most popular flavors and she gave me some direction. From there, I picked out which flavors I wanted to try the most! I got chocolate, strawberry, mango, strawberry daifuku, and red bean with soybean powder on the outside. They have some instructions on how to maintain the integrity of the mochi, so as soon as I got home I put them in the fridge, That night, I was finally able to dig in! The mochi was very soft and had the perfect texture. I made sure to sample each flavor and was so stuffed. My favorite had to of been either the mango or the red bean with soybean powder. However, there were all very delicious! If you find yourself in the area, it's definitely worth giving this cute mochi shop a go! :)

That said, you can still make your own personalized box or bag, which is great. We always go for our favorites--the Polar Bears, Double Caramels, and the Pecan and Almond Buds. Hoping they return to their full-size location

They literally are half the size of what they used to be for more money. All you taste is chocolate you don't even taste the nugget or anything on the inside I had an old bar in the freezer and I matched it up in size and it literally was half the size and if you look at the picture the wrapper, they still have the old picture and then you look at the candy bar and it's literally half as thick as what it used to be and even shorter in size very big disappointment. The rapper used to be tight on it now it's loose because. such a big disappointment probably won't be buying candy from them for the holidays to give out.

Since the 90s this place has been the place for anyone in South San Diego to get their desserts for celebrations, birthdays, potlucks, holiday parties and more. One of a kind, and always fresh and consistent. Don't forget to get a ticket so that the staff can take care of you! Such a local vibe, and I love that it's not super hipster and still reminds me of "home".

Grab your ticket but never wait more than 10-15min to have someone help you with your sweet selections. So many items to choose from and the staff here is always patient and willing to answer any questions you may have. My favorite items here are the strawberry short cake, key lime tarts, pineapple upside down cake and their black forest cake. Mind you I have tried so many other things but these are truly the best. They have a fridge stocked daily with ready to go items for faster check out. Truly cannot go wrong with this bakery.

Our family favorite is the Funfetti cake--it's always incredibly moist, perfectly sweet, and absolutely delicious. The decorations are consistently beautiful and always exceed our expectations. My son looks forward to his birthday cake from Sweetest Revenge Bakery every year, and this year they also created the stunning cake for my 40th birthday celebration. It was not only gorgeous but tasted incredible as well. The customer service is outstanding, the prices are reasonable, and the quality is second to none. Every cake we've ordered has been a crowd favorite, and our guests always rave about how good they are. Whether you're looking for a birthday cake, special occasion dessert, or just something delicious to celebrate, I highly recommend Sweetest Revenge Bakery. They have earned our loyalty, and we will continue ordering from them for years to come. Thank you for consistently making our celebrations extra special!

I highly recommend giving this bakery a try!

My daughter ordered the strawberries and Nutella crepes and they do not disappoint. Very generous on every aspect the fresh strawberries, the Nutella and the crepe. 4 star because my pear tea (which I drink hot) was kind of not so pleasant , almost like an instant tea flavor to it with a sweet taste that was not for me. Should have gone for the coffee with delicious grains staring at me on the top of the coffee machine.

Cute little cafe in downtown Chula Vista…read more This place is located on historic 3rd avenue amongst several little shops and restaurants. It's tiny but has a lot of charm...we usually grab the corner window seat to enjoy our desserts and drinks. My favorites: Strawberry Matcha, White Mocha, Coconut Cake, Fruit Tarts, Chocolate Mousse, Muffins and so much more. We usually come here to satisfy our sweet tooth after visiting La Bella Pizza Garden, which is a few doors down. Parking can get a bit tricky: they offer metered street parking as well as their own lot which you also have to pay for...with Sunday being the exception I believe. Service is fast and friendly. A-OK in my book!

Absolutely phenomenal cake, perfectly sweet but not too sweet, incredible texture and incredibly moist but not too wet like some tres leche cakes can be. Very impressed and felt like the price $45 was fair for such a fresh, delicious and big cake. We had half the cake left over from 6 adults and one child. My Dad loved it, thanks for the amazing cake and for being so helpful helping me pick which would be best. All around great experience and I can't wait to try other ones. They have tons of different flavors and if looking for something specific, i was told it's best to order ahead either online or over the phone. Which I'll definitely be doing the snickers tres leche for my Dad next.

They have a big variety of cakes all ready to go in their cake display. I chose the chocobombon since they didn't have any all vanilla cakes and this one had some vanilla in it and my husbands favorite is vanilla. I really liked that they had candles and cake decorations as well in the store and I bought a few Birthday embellishments which were all $1 each, great price! The staff was nice but not too friendly when I was trying to find out more about the cakes and flavors, I had to read the labels since she didn't provide me any details. The cake was just okay, it was very dense and a bit dry. The marshmallow frosting was a little thick and the overall flavors were definitely different but not sure I would get this flavor again. I would like to try a few more flavors and maybe a tres leches cake to see how those are. It is located in Chula Vista in a small shopping center, limited parking available.

The cannoli was still super fresh and crispy with some chocolate inside as well. The cheesecake had a whipped cream and almond shavings on the outside with a layer of strawberry jelly on top. It satisfied the cheesecake flavor I needed. The tamales are really good here and never dry. Whenever I would come here, the bean and cheese tamales would usually always be sold out. Today I finally finally got to try one for the first time. It was so good that I wanted to go back inside and buy more, but I had already bought other tamales for my family to work through. Every flavor of tamale will not disappoint you, whether meat or vegetarian. Generally speaking every item here is made with love from these little older ladies. They make everything as though as they're making it for their families because everything tastes like they perfected their craft. They are easy to talk to and I love their customer service every time I come in. They are always joyful here. They now have seating if you want to enjoy your treats there. The area as a whole is not a big cafe, but it gets the job done. The dessert I usually always have to get is the merengues with walnuts. I used to get 10, but now I just get 3 because *health* lol ..
