    Chocolate Mouse Cake
    Emmeline H.

    The only local bakery that came through for me on short notice! I called and also submitted an online inquiry to see if they could make my daughter's 9th birthday cake. I didn't hear back for a day or two, but they eventually returned my call and were able to accommodate my request. I had a few specific details in mind--my daughter wanted a chocolate mousse cake, she loves bows, and her favorite color is white. They absolutely delivered! As you can see in the photos, they executed exactly what I envisioned. The cake tasted delicious, the portions were very generous, and the pricing was reasonable for the quality and size. My only suggestion would be sending a pickup reminder. Between mom life and work life, things can get hectic, and a courtesy notification that the cake was ready would've been helpful. They also had a limited selection of birthday candles. Overall, I'm really happy with how everything turned out. They were able to bring my vision to life, and I would definitely order from them again for future celebrations.

    Spinach Quiche

    The food was good. We ordered a quiche wedge bread basket (5/5) and a panini combo- turkey and Swiss (4/5). For the road we ordered a London fog (4/5). The service was quick. The ambiance is pleasant. They offer indoor and outdoor dining.

    Went in this morning to get my mom a cake for her 83rd birthday. The staff was very lost in what direction they were supposed to take in helping the clients A lady cut in front of me so that was already highly annoying. They should probably adapt the number system like Olde Tyme Pastries. It works well for them. Also the cake taste like old bread the frosting was not good. There was so much frosting and it's not good. You cannot eat it. You have to scrape it off. They actually filled in part of the broken cake with more frosting. If you can believe that! I'll post a picture so you can see for yourself. As if this is not upsetting enough now we have to try to cut a cake that's like an avalanche! But the best part was I couldn't get anyone in the Bakery to write on the cake because everybody was either on their lunch, gone home or on vacation and that includes the Manager. My mom summed it up pretty properly though she said out of 83 years this is the worst cake I've ever had! I will definitely not be going back there. $45.00 for the cake that went into the trash. Who knows the cake may have sat in the case all weekend long I'm not sure. Wouldn't have given one star, but I had to

    cinnamon bun was hard super dry and tastes old.see pic. My bear claw was very bready not buttery or danish like with no flavor. My wife's chocolate danish was not fresh either. on the plus side the area was spacious and clean and staff was very nice. I'm thinking we caught them on a off

    I should have written this review earlier around the time but it slipped my mind. I had had trouble with another bakery when ordering my sister in laws birthday cake, the other bakery which I will not name lost my order and refused to compensate me with anything. That experience left me going to village bakery in hopes of getting a last minute cake, knowing that the bakery doesn't do same day orders. When I spoke to Sarah on the phone she was very kind and understanding and assured me her team would be glad to help, we didn't just speak about cakes either, the bakery itself is very clean and welcoming, and all the staff were so kind. Village bakery made an absolutely beautiful cake with every detail na flavor I asked for. This was one of the best cakes I've ever had, and I am so thankful to the village bakery team for being so kind and helping me out.

    Tiramisu Cake
    Kristy S.

    Ordered a Tiramisu cake for Christmas this year and it did not disappoint! Not only was it absolutely beautiful but it tasted DELISH! May have been one of the best tiramisu I've had. On top of that the staff was so friendly and helpful... especially with it being Christmas Eve and all the orders they had. They were so pleasant. Worth noting: You do need to give them 36 hour notice for ordering this. Perfection takes time ;) I even picked up a few extra Christmas cupcakes for my niece and nephew! Their selection of baked items is a great variety!

    We stopped in for the first time today. I had no idea what to expect, but was slightly underwhelmed…read moreby the amount of options compared to other shops in the area. There were limited quantities of each so I'm not sure if they have more things on the weekends, which would totally make sense for a local small business on a random Tuesday. Parking is easy once you find it and although the inside is very small there are a few chairs and cafe tables perfect for a duo. Nonetheless, we left with a good haul and got one of almost everything: Red velvet slice, Carrot cake slice, Chocolate Mousse slice, Chocolate brownie, and Lemon bar. They also had a sheet cake, a small pack of cupcakes and cake pops in a separate case, so I wasn't sure if those were preorders or display or available for purchase. Here's what I loved: THE BROWNIE. One of the best I've ever had! The lemon bar was also delicious, super tart and perfectly baked. I'd get either of those again! Customer service was very friendly, prices were clearly displayed and fair, and the portions were good sizes. Here's what I just liked: The cake part of the red velvet, mousse, and carrot cake was a bit dry. They were beautifully decorated, the frosting and fillings were great, but the cake itself just wasn't as soft and moist as I was hoping. Another Yelper mentioned sticking the cake in the microwave and I wish I would have tried that. Definitely a small business worth supporting!

Upon entering, I was struck by three things, how friendly the worker was, how hard the door was to open (I do have mobility issues on occasion), and how little there was on display to choose from. Still, I found a couple of nice items (red velvet and some serious chocolate cake) my wife loved the chocolate but we found the red velvet to be quite dry and hard. I suspect that it had been in the case far too long. Fortunately the chocolate was so good, my wife said that it more than made up for it. Overall, the ambiance was simple bakery, nice folks, serving well. I suspect where these nice folks shine is in pre-orders (which makes TOTAL sense, as foot traffic, particularly in this bakery's location would be a tough sell indeed). I suspect that we will be keeping Dessert European Cakes and Pastries in mind for our upcoming bakery needs.

However, if your not local and purchase from the vendors in the bay area, then your prone to the time it sat at the bakery, travel time to bay area and how long it's been sitting on the shelve before you bought it. Did that! the product went bad the next day! We happen to be in town and stopped by. This was our opportunity to visit for awhile because we moved from Modesto to the bay area and we always bought here when we were local. We requested pandesal on the rack. I wouldn't think that be a problem if a customer requested that versus that already packaged, mind you that it's not every customers expectation, so do it. I'm a Manager in Customer Service so this was the test because the last visit a while back was off and about the same with the same exact aura on the front-end and I just thought maybe it was that one day. There was asian woman and white woman at the front counter. The white woman approached and we requested. Then for some reason the asian woman responded with this attitude that it was fresh and brought out. I could tell she got irritated because she disappeared to the back and never seen. The white woman rung us up, but then you can tell she was brushed off with the same attitude of the asian woman and she rung us up so quickly to get us out. This was similar to our last visit from a year ago and I still remember that visit! Ambiance is great on the first minute before you enter with the aroma, but once you make contact at the front counter and make requests. Good luck! The 3 stars here is strictly the hopia and pandesal we bought that were amazing. The customer service was deteriorated by 2 stars. Just want to make that clear!

I even told them I don't like buttercream because it's too sweet and that I didn't want it anywhere on this cake. When I placed the order, they asked if they could add a little buttercream to the outside for texture. I said okay, but only a tiny bit mixed with the whipped cream. What showed up was all buttercream on the outside with zero whipped cream. When I asked about it, they told me it was whipped cream. I know what I'm tasting, and so did my guests. It was definitely buttercream. The inside was even worse. There was some ganache but barely any. The further we cut into the cake, the more buttercream we found. I did not want buttercream inside the cake at all. I barely agreed to a little on the outside and they didn't even respect that. The photos show it clearly. The further we cut, the messier and more uneven it got with just buttercream and buttercream. One slice had a thin layer of ganache with barely any pecans or caramel. Everything else was buttercream. I picked this bakery because I had a good experience with them the first time. The design looked nice, but the cake itself was really disappointing. Way too sweet from all that buttercream I specifically said I didn't want. I gave them detailed feedback with photos. Instead of owning up to it, the decorator got defensive. He said he used buttercream as glue to hold the cake together. But that doesn't make sense. If ganache worked fine as glue on my first order with them (which had no buttercream inside at all), why couldn't he do the same thing this time? He just chose to use a lot of buttercream instead of actually following what I asked for. I even sent more photos pointing out exactly where the problem was. But they still insisted it was whipped cream. My guests noticed it too. So are they lying? Management offered me a 10% discount on my next order. That doesn't help. I paid for a cake that didn't meet what I asked for and it ruined my event. I asked for a 50% refund which seemed fair. They read the message but never answered. Just complete silence. If a bakery is going to charge premium prices for custom cakes, you need to actually follow what the customer asks for. I was crystal clear about what I wanted. That's literally the whole point of a custom order. They like to ignore customers when there's an issue. I was ignored at first, then only responded after I pointed out how unprofessional they were handling things. That's when they offered the 10% discount. But the moment I asked for a fair 50% refund, they ghosted me completely. No response, nothing. That says everything you need to know about how they treat customers who have legitimate concerns.
