Decided to be a rebel and have dessert before dinner. Boy oh boy I do not regret my decision I've been eyeballing this place for a while now. I've seen the beautiful pics and I've been wondering are these desserts more than just a pretty face? The answer is yes, yes they are. I don't think I need to describe how beautiful these desserts are. Especially with all the amazing photos all these great yelpers have uploaded on here The flavor of these blew me away! The ambiance is absolutely amazing! This place is so cute! I can honestly say I have never sat inside a bakery / dessert shop before (I usually get my stuff to go) but this place is so pretty! They have couches and adorable chairs that are extremely comfortable (And spotless) The staff was really helpful, they have a lot of flavors I've never tried before and they gave me their recommendations I ended up getting - A tiramisu Red velvet Oreo cheesecake Nutella bear (gluten free) And A dulce de leche I am not kidding when I say every single one of these were great. I honestly couldn't pick which one was my favorite The parking situation is awesome They have plenty of private parking right up front They also have little WiFi codes you can scan on the tables. So that's awesome if you are here for a while enjoying all your desserts They do have music playing but it's not loud at all. It has a really relaxing vibe The amazing woman working here also brought out two ice waters (without us even asking) I'll have to come back and try something from their nice sized drink menu There's also some outdoor seating And they also have two private bathrooms. The one I went into was extremely clean. I hate going into public bathrooms with stalls where I have to listen to people do their business I'll 1000000 percent come back here!!! The only thing missing was a glass of champagne lol P.S. they also sell full sized cakes. Which are absolutely stunning. On the menu they seem to run around 45 dollars depending on which one you get. The ONLY downside to this place is you'll literally want to try them all. It's so hard to pick just one - two items read more

Such a nice cafe to relax for a while and enjoy their beautifully crafted desserts and drinks! The restaurant is very clean and has a nice open feel. I like how they created different sitting areas with different furniture. They also have a long space for larger parties. The service is well paced and super friendly. The dessert choices offer so many flavors that it was hard for me to choose! They also offer a few desserts that are pure art! We had the hypnosis! The flavor of their drinks and desserts is so delicious! Many times you find beauty without flavor, that is NOT the case here. You will get both! Don't forget to check in on Yelp for a free lemonade, while supplies last! read more

Best girl's dessert outing ever. We were thinking of places to go after the gym and this was the perfect place. It's so cute inside, you feel like you're at a tea party. They have so many desserts to choose from and cute character ones as well. We had a nut-allergy friend and she was able to have many options there as well. Besides the super cute desserts, they also have coffee and tea drinks and whole cakes for purchase. My favorite was the Nutella bear. The lychee bunny was also a favorite. We got the pistachio and mango mini cakes as well. Everything was delicious. Everyone helping us was very nice and made us feel at home. There's a parking lot but if it's full there are more spots by the Wendy's. The prices were decent, between $5-$7, and there's plenty of inside seating. All the desserts were flavourful without being overly sweet. Great meet up place for friends. Parking: there's a lot and more by the Wendy's. It's not marked so looks like all the places there can use the parking spaces. Price: drinks and desserts range from $5-$7 Ambiance: nice seating for friends or a date night. Service: very nice and friendly read more

First off, the decor. Great job to whoever designed this place. On to the food. We got the yuzu mango mousse cake and the melona honeydew coco cake. I'd give the yuzu cake a 4/5. It was tangy, flavorful, and just the right amount of sweet (on a scale of 1-10, it would be like a 6). The honeydew cake was probably like a 3/5. Besides how it looks, there wasn't anything special about it. The flavor was mild and the cake was a little dry. read more

It was about a year ago I found this dessert establishment on Instagram. While waiting for traffic to lightening up on rainy day to return to San Diego I decided to stop by here. There were several reason why I wanted to come here base on what I saw on Instagram. First the Nutella Bear, the smoked (dry ice) plated desserts, and the blooming tea. Upon arrival to the location I saw cute, simple decor. The vibe was relaxed. There was a group at a large table and us in the establishment. When it was time to order I didn't see any plated desserts that were appetizing. Also, the establishment no longer offers dry ice to the plated desserts, so that was disappointing to learn. I ordered the Nutella Bear, a blooming tea, and the Durian Mousse. The Nutella was smooth, creamy, light, and just sweet enough. It was very good. The blooming tea was served in a clear tea pot. The flowers were aromatic and beautiful. My partner would have preferred the teapot served without the hot water so I could had the full experience of pouring the water my self in the pot to see the flowers bloom. Drinking the tea right away was great. As the flowers steep longer the taste of the tea becomes intensely floral. He enjoyed the Durian Mousse. It does have an acquire, earthy taste. I enjoyed the bite I had, yet I don't know if I would order and eat the whole dessert. I ordered myself a second dessert. The Ube Cheesecake. That was wonderful! Creamy, yet more filling than the Nutella Bear. More of a bolder flavor. I would definitely orde again the Ube Cheesecake! read more

When we went, it wasn't busy, but it took a while for the server/cashier to greet us. Visually, the desserts look amazing. Like art. However, taste wise, I wasn't impressed. There wasn't anything great about the mousse. I felt some lacked in flavor (matcha kalamanci) Being forward, it didn't leave a lasting impression. It wasn't worth the price imo. Just to be sure, we ordered a mix of desserts and drinks. Did not taste as good as it looked. Some also came partly frozen. There's plenty of seats. Some may be a bit tight. read more

What an interesting little spot, and in of all places, Stanton! This little boutique is quaint with plenty of seating. The decor is clean and different. The ceiling patterns were neat to look at and I loved the little space with bright and bold furniture. The service was quick and kind. There was no rush feeling. We ordered a blueberry lemon cheesecake and a mango dessert. These are the very big but just the right size for a quick sweet nibble. Also ordered was a tea and I ordered the pumpkin spice latte on ice. I don't think there was enough or hardly any caffeine in it but if you want a pumpkin pie in liquid form - this is it! It was so delicious, not too sweet, and tasted fresh and homemade. All their desserts looked beautiful and delicious. Can't wait to find an excuse to go back. read more

What a charming little place. The desserts are so pretty and tastes as good as they look. I love anything with tropical fruits. It is pricey for such a small dessert but the amount you of work put into it is worth it. I would go back for special treats from time to time. Staff was friendly. It does take them time to box your purchase as each individual item is "glued" to a mini cardboard. read more

Coolest little dessert factory. Everything here was outstanding and their innovative and creative! Some of the best desserts you can get and not being in a fancy restaurant.

Deserts are beautiful and amazing. They are pretty pricey but great for a special occasion.

This is my new favorite dessert place! I've tried many dessert places around OC and by far this has the yummiest desserts and delicious drinks. The atmosphere is quite chill. There are several couches and tables in the sitting area as well as well as your typical 4x4 and larger and tables outside. Service is friendly and attentive. The shop has high ceiling creating an inviting, lively, and happy environment. Will definitely be retuning with friends. Highly recommended! read more

Fun, tasty, unique. Staff is nice. Seats are okay, tables are not comfortable because they are so low and far from the fancy seats. They need to be a good 12" taller to be able to eat from when sharing. If eating solo you can pick up the saucer and eat your dessert like you would hold a tea cup and saucer. I'd put it at $$ price. You can tell there is a lot of detail to the desserts which is very eye catching, the bear is definitely a must! read more

I went there looking for specialty desserts for one of my best friends birthdays. I used yelp and found The Spoon. Every dessert they make look spectacular. When I mentioned to the lady that it needed to be transported as I was going to be bringing these treats to my friend, she packed them up so nicely for me and gave me frozen ones on their own little pads, stuck to the bottom of the boxes so nothing would connect as I drove them to my friends house. They made it unscathed and every single one we tried was absolutely amazing! I know they're a little pricey, but for special occasions, it's a well worth it! The service could not have been better either. The café itself was very cute and we cannot wait to go back and sit in the atmosphere of the café and eat some fresh from the case. read more

The Spoon is a cute but modern take on classic desserts with an Asian twist. It's located inside of a plaza, making parking very accessible and plentiful. Walking into the establishment, there are plenty of tables to sit at to enjoy your desserts and drink. I loved how cute the aesthetic was with the decor, plants, and furniture choice. The cashier who helped us was very friendly, and I appreciate how he would provide us his suggestions/recommendations for the ones we were stuck on! We ended up ordering the Lychee Rose Rabbit, Thai Tea Panna Cotta, and the Soursop Iced Tea. The Lychee Rose was my favorite! It wasn't as jiggly as I thought, but you can really taste the flavors of both the lychee and the rose, without it feeling too artificial. The Thai Tea was also very potent and I loved the texture, as it reminded me of mousse! The iced tea was also so delicious and refreshing. A nice tart to counter the rest of our sweet desserts. Overall, I really enjoyed my sweet treat at The Spoon! I highly recommend this dessert spot to anyone trying to grab a sweet and Instagrammable dessert. read more

If you need a spot for cute cakes, this is it. The icing is all the Asian flavors on display! I've been to The Spoon a few times now and they don't usually disappoint. They have various box sizes so you can customize how many cakes you want to get. I've had almost all their cakes at this point and each of them is so unique and delicious. They often run promos such as B3G1 free which is always nice too. It's located in a small plaza so parking is easy and they always have plenty of seats to relax and enjoy your desserts too. There's no other place in OC like this so I will definitely be back! read more

Came by on a Friday evening at 6pm. Not too busy, but took us awhile to decide on what to get because everything looked so good! Ended up ordering too much anyways. A bit pricey, but the craftsmanship of each piece was very nice. We thoroughly enjoyed each item and appreciated all the different flavors! Probably enjoyed the Yuzu Mango Mousse, Lychee Bunny, and the Peanut Butter Mousse the most. Definitely give this place a try! read more

Spooning with someone is definitely a real treat but doing it with these desserts and a tongue just can't be beat. So eye pleasing to look at with all its curves with the flavor to match and that is my word. I'm not going to name all the desserts I ordered but I'll tell you none of them disappointed my tastebuds. I also had a couple of drinks and those I'll definitely name. The Ube latte was spot on with flavor and it came in a glass cup and not like other establishments that have the it but pick and chose who gets it, Ahem!!! Anyways! Their creme brulee latte was also on point with flavor and I can just imagine how good the rest of the drinks are. The atmosphere is chill and they offer other eye pleasing desserts but one has to be there early before they run out. Service was also on point and I definitely enjoyed their playlist. And as Smokey would say, I don't care what they say about me, I don't care what they do. I don't care about no one else but Spooning with U! That's my take, Peace read more

This is a dessert place with really cute sweet treats. The pictures brought me in to brighten up my day. Some dessert pieces are better than others, so knowing what to order is important here. Below are some items I got. * Strawberry Pig 3/5 - Cute little piggy. It looks a bit angry which has its own charm. Tasted okay and didn't really wow me. * Coco Pandan 3/5 - Okay treat that tasted a bit fatty. Didn't quite have the coconut flavor. * Yellow Bear (Mango and Lychee jelly) 5/5 - This made me happy after feeling underwhelmed from the other 2 desserts. It's more of a tart dessert which isn't what I like usually, but this one hit the spot. Plus, it's so cuteeee! * Matcha Tiramisu 4/5 - This was a good dessert. Not sure if it's quite a tiramisu. It's more of a layered cake with matcha cream. The cake part was normal, a bit dry, not the ladyfingers dipped in coffee like you'd expected. * Tiramisu 4.5/5 - Mm creamy and delicious tiramisu. * Kumquat Tea 5/5 - Delicious kumquat tea. I'd get this again. read more

This place has been on my list for a while due to how pretty it looks so I had to see if it met the hype. Parking: There is a large parking so you don't have to worry about parking being an issue. Customer Service: The lady that was very helpful and explained all the desserts to us. Quality of Food & Drinks: The dessert definitely didn't meet up to the hype. It looks prettier than it tastes. It was very gelatinous and had a lack of flavor. My dad had a latte and it was not good. The coffee tasted burnt. I would recommend you try somewhere else for quality but it you want instagramable photos come here! read more

Cute ambiance, great service, and tasty treats - all presented beautifully. The ice cream was shaped so cute (a sleeping teddy bear) that my son felt bad getting it to eat (we can work on that later - eat the bear!), but he loved both cheesecake flavors and I enjoyed them along with the coffee. Great place for small groups and the configuration lends itself for conversation and fun times. It's a quality over quantity place, which I prefer, but just an FYI. I'll certainly return, and I'd recommend others to give it a try. :) read more

The Spoon - An ube cheesecake, Oreo cheesecake, and a Viet iced coffee. - Desserts Near Me - Stanton, California

Was searching Yelp to see what has durian and found this spot. Upon entering, u see glass cases full of the most beautifully decorated desserts. Some of the larger cakes are so pretty I wouldn't want to cut into them. The restaurant itself is cute and decorated in a modern style. There are comfy couches to sit on our booths along the wall. Even the walls were textured with large flower pattern. The service is top notch. The owner took time to explain everything and the different flavors in the desserts. We ordered the durian mousse, ube cheesecake, and yuzu lychee. The durian mousse was my fav. It def tasted like it was made with fresh durian. The ube cheesecake was light and didn't feel heavy. The yuzu lychee popsicle stick was like a mousse. It's also very light and refreshing. Vietnamese coffee was nice and strong. The beauty tea is actually very tasty. It's a mix of dried Asian herbs like Logan, wolfberry, jujube, some other stuff and tea. This is an Asian style dessert place where it's not overly sweet or heavy. Portions are small enough where you can get several to share. Will def be back to try other stuff. read more

When I see the words contemporary dessert, I automatically think of tiny, expensive desserts that look really good but don't taste all that great. This place fits the description, with the exception of last part. Everything I tried tasted excellent, and my whole family loved everything I got. All the items had a gelatin outer layer with sponge cake and other fillings in the middle. All items had enough sweetness, and presentation was just superb. Guava Cheesecake is my favorite so far. It tasted just like the description and had guava jelly in the middle. Thai Tea Panna Cotta is a close second. Very smooth texture with perfect amount of Thai tea flavor. Banana Oreo Cheesecake was excellent as well. It tasted just like the description. My five-year old son was able to taste Oreo and banana without even knowing what it was when he ate it. Dulce De Leche Choco Mousse had the best presentation, but probably the least interesting flavor (at least for me). Also received some type of cream pop as a complimentary item. I think it was part of grand opening special. It had matcha filling, and outer layer tasted like strawberry (or maybe raspberry). Also a good item. Service was excellent. Decor is nice and elegant. It has somewhat of a lounge look with few velvet chairs and tables. Think it also serves coffee and drinks, although I didn't see any menu for them. I may actually come back tonight to get more items. My wife wants to try the Durian Mousse. read more

Sugar art! One of my favorite forms of art lol The beauty of each cake made it so difficult not to visit. While browsing, I realized that they have durian mousse. It excites me even more lol for sure, I gotta try it. Ordered the durian mousse and strawberry Creamsicle. I really wanted to order more, but I am kinda full. Now, I m not a fan of mousse. However, this place did an amazing job. I enjoyed both. The durian mousse was pretty light in flavor. Normally, I would complain that the durian flavor needs to be stronger and they need to add more durian. However, I was fine with the way it was created. It had the right amount of sweetness to it. Will go well with a good cup of latte. I finished the cakes before the latte came out lol The strawberry pop was also good. I m not a fan of fruity cakes, but it was well executed. I can taste the strawberry. It was not too sweet nor too sour. It all blended very well. I really really want to try the banana one because it looked so pretty. Sadly, the stomach can't fit anymore. Will return lol Latte was ok. A strong coffee.... Service was good RR avail Parking avail read more

3/2/2023 3 1/2 Stars FIRST IMPRESSION Newly opened dessert café in Stanton. I parked at the side of the café. There was a side door right where I parked, but wanted to take a picture of the front. Surprised to find 4 large empty boxes and a small wooden plank right in front of the café's front doors! It was such an odd sight given the café was already opened and ready to receive customers. So I decided to turn around and walk in through the side door. They did not have a menu posted at the front nor did they offer a menu for me to look at. They just stood there waiting for me to order something when there's no menu. I just decided to order whatever they had in their display case. I asked and they do offer various ice teas and coffee. Cream pops are $3. The mini cakes prices ranged from $6 - $9. The whole cakes prices ranged from $35 - $45. The café had beautiful velvet armchairs, velvet sofas and small tables to place your coffee and ice teas and create Instagram photos. There were also slightly larger tables in the back. The ambiance was there and it was pretty to look at, yet it wasn't a space where various groups can come in and hang out comfortably. It wasn't created to be a hang out spot. Maybe a 2-3 friends can come in and take a quick photo type of spot. UBE CHEESECAKE It tastes like caramel. Can't taste the ube or the cream cheese. The outer consistency is jello-like and jiggly. The inside texture is more of a mousse than a cheesecake. There was also a thin layer of vanilla spongecake. So it was confusing because the name is different from the actual taste, flavor, and consistency. Overall I liked the flavor, but it's not ube nor is it cheesecake. OREO JASMINE MOUSSE It tastes like a fruity and creamy peach. You know those fake peach flavors in drinks. It's not completely a peach flavor, but it has a refreshing, light peach and fruity flavor. No jasmine present at all. There was an oreo cookie in the center. Only the outside chocolate cookie layer. Strangely the fruity and oreo flavor worked well together. This was my second favorite. DURIAN MOUSSE Tastes like durian as expected. Same like the other cakes, it had a jello-like texture and exterior. Inside is spongecake and a small sliver of durian fruit pieces in it. But small enough where you can miss it. MATCHA TIRAMISU Not a tiramisu. Nothing about it is tiramisu. Not sure why it's named that way. However, it does taste like matcha. But not the Japanese matcha strong bitter flavor. It is sweet, light sponge in the center. It's a bit gooey and with the outward jello-consistency, the overall mouthfeel is jello-like and mushy cheesecake-like consistency. This is my least favorite out of the five cakes I've tried. GANACHE DULCE LE LECHE This cake was given as a complimentary /  promotional item! This is the best one out of the five cakes I've tried. It delivers in name, taste, and consistency. Chocolatey,  fudgy ganache and a bit of chocolate sponge cake. I like that there's a variety in cake selections, but the cakes I've tried so far did not live up to my expectations. For the price, it should have been better. All the mini cakes I've tried except the Ganache Dulce Le Leche, all had similar jello-like textures and had thin layers of sponge cake. I'm not sure what I was eating most of the time. The flavors weren't bad, but I'm confused to what I did eat. For those who want to try, give it a try. At least the cakes look pretty. CUSTOMER SERVICE There were two Asian women working there. I assumed were the owners. However, I did not ask, so I'm not 100% sure. Overall, good customer service and everyone was polite. LOCATION plaza Way + Orangewood Ave Inside the same place where Fusion Corner and Wendy's is located. read more

This place has the prettiest desserts I've ever seen. So pretty that they should be displayed at a fancy hotel/restaurant. My nieces loved the lychee bear which is a light mousse with bits of lychee jelly. The matcha tiramisu was a little too earth for me but I love the calamansi panna cotta (so refreshing and citrussy). Would love to come back to try their other items and drinks. read more

Prices are affordable for drinks. Desserts are many, light and refreshing. We tried Pandan and that was our experience, cost for them is about $7-9. Drinks are Vietnamese style and are strong and sweet, ask for it to be made either lightly sweet or ask for a side cup of your desired milk to dilute condensed milk or sweetness level. Perfect place for a meeting or to meet up with college friends or a bridal/baby shower group! Desserts are very pretty, they are light and refreshing :) Beauty do desserts I rate a "10". Taste I give it a "7" where it's good with coffee and just light. read more
