I love their treats, the cakes are beautiful, and everyone that works there is super friendly and helpful!

there's no prices displayed. i saw online they had cookies, cupcakes, and all these treats but the cookies are tiny af and everything looked dry. i was going to walk out until i saw there was a refrigerated area with cake and pie slices. it all looked good so i just grabbed a lil piece of chocolate pie. bruh......$10 for a slice of pie...that fits in the palm of your hand....diabolical. i even looked it up. $80 for a whole ass pie?? just because it's vegan and gf? places like this is what makes that lifestyle a luxury and inaccessible. shouldn't be that way. the slice was good tho that's why it's an extra star lol read more

We love this place! My favorites are the confetti cake and the apple pie! We also like the "Vegan Goatless Cheese" (with cranberries and dill). We have not tried everything (yet), but what we have bought has been very good! For maximum enjoyment, store and reheat baked goods according to their instructions. read more

A perfect cookie! And vegan too! I'm so glad I stumbled onto this bakery around the corner from my stretch therapist, now I've got two reasons to come here! I got to meet Ivonne, she was so nice and took time to explain the pastries I was interested in. read more

Yvonne's Vegan Kitchen - Ginger date molasses cookie! - Desserts Near Me - Pasadena, California

I cannot rave enough about Yvonne's Vegan Kitchen. I live very close to the storefront, and I love the warmth and hospitality Yvonne has brought to our neighborhood. My husband and I stopped in one day for a sweet treat while Yvonne was working up front. She is such an incredibly kind and talented individual. Everything we tried was beyond delicious. As someone who is dairy free and gluten free, it is often challenging to find decent desserts and baked goods, but Yvonne's whips up the most incredible vegan and gluten free items. Last month my husband surprised me with a special birthday cake from Yvonne, and it was hands down the best cake I've ever had. It was an incredibly moist confetti cake that truly tasted like it was made with love and it was decorated so cute. Even if you are not vegan or gluten free, you must give Yvonne's a try. You will not be disappointed. The kitchen is innovative and whipping up some of the yummiest flavor profiles I've ever had. read more

I'm not vegan and these were some of the tastiest desserts I've had! I do have some food allergies and enjoyed being able to sample almost everything in the case without concern. The owner offered a sample of the lemon loaf and it was delicious. I wanted to try the jalapeno chedda biscuit and she offered to warm it for me. It was delectable! I ate it in the store so it didn't make it in the photo but I added a 3 pack to my purchase because I needed more! The service was impeccable! We were given a warm welcome and thanked by the owner for making the journey to her storefront. The shop is tiny but blissfully packed with warmth and good food! There are tables and chairs outside to eat alfresco. Perfect to sample any goodie so you can run back in the store for more! read more

Yvonne's Vegan Kitchen - A variety of desserts from the case - Desserts Near Me - Pasadena, California

We ordered a lemon curd cake (vanilla cake with lemon curd on top), and it was delicious! Finding vegan lemon curd is almost unheard of, so this was a real gem of a find. A lot of times vegan and GF cakes are too dry or overly sweet, but it was not the case with this cake. If we didn't already have so many desserts for the party, I would have bought more items from Yvonne's on the day of. The dessert case inside the bakery is very tempting. I sampled a rice krispy treat and it was amazing. I will definitely be a repeat customer and will likely try some savory items next time. read more

Our daughter needed a vegan gluten free wedding cake and after a fun tasting with her fiancé they chose the lemon. On the big day, there was an unfortunate mix up with the delivery and the bakery saved the day by creating a brand new cake and personally delivered it to the venue! It was beyond delicious! Amazing grace under pressure and we will be using them again!!! read more

Yvonne's Vegan Kitchen - Our Minimalist Wedding Cake replacement after the original cake was kidnapped! Delicious & Perfect in every way! - Desserts Near Me - Pasadena, California

Thank you, Yvonne's, for saving my birthday party! The person who was going to make my birthday cake suddenly couldn't do it and I was scrambling to find a bakery that could accommodate my order in five days. My cousin recommended this bakery to me, and I called to see if they were able to help me out. The person who I spoke with first, Lex(?), asked me what kind of cake I needed and they said they'd speak with the bakers but there was no guarantee they'd be available to fulfill my order. I said that's totally fine, and I got a call back a couple hours later from Lynn telling me they'd be able to help me out! I ordered their stemmed flower cake with chocolate cake and strawberries inside (photo attached) and I also ordered mini cupcakes, 2 dozen chocolate and 2 dozen vanilla with raspberry jam buttercream. The cupcakes were so cute and the cake came out BEAUTIFULLY!!! The cupcake with jam buttercream tasted like a graham cracker, and the chocolate cake was rich and fresh. I would absolutely order from here again and I'm so grateful to the staff and bakers for making amazing products! read more

Yvonne's Vegan Kitchen - Stemmed flower birthday cake made with their chocolate cake and strawberries inside! - Desserts Near Me - Pasadena, California

Picked up a mini red velvet cake and some cheddar jalapeño biscuits. Not sure if these two items were from the day before, but they were really dry and tasteless. Bummed that I spent $50 on this B-Day treat for myself. Not worth it. read more

I don't even know where to begin! Yvonne's Vegan Kitchen is an ABSOLUTE GEM! Everything they make, cakes, slices, donuts, cupcakes... THEY MAKE THE BEST VERSION OF EVERYTHING! I'm NOT even remotely exaggerating! (It's fact!) I have been buying their cake slices from Follow Your Heart for months now, so I was *tickled pink* when I heard they were opening a store front! :) I had the pleasure of visiting their stunningly beautiful new location on their opening weekend. Yvonne and her staff were so incredibly sweet and friendly, giving my husband and I amazing recommendations! ALL WERE ABSOLUTE WINNERS & JOLLY DELICIOUS, so much so.... we ended up going back the next day to load up on more goodies we hadn't tried! :D One thing I want to mention is just how utterly *perfect* the texture and level of sweetness everything is! I LOVE that these baked treats are not too sweet! I am the sort of person that works out at the gym everyday and eats as cleanly as possible... but I DO have a sweet tooth :D I NEVER feel any guilt eating any of these goodies, and they never make me feel "sick" like a lot of other sweets do. I seriously need to move to Pasadena just to live closer to this bakery! For anyone living in the Continental United States... it's WORTH the drive! read more

Love the variety of desserts they have... and they're all vegan!! My favorites include their pies, ube loaf, coffee cake, and cake balls.

I was looking for a delicious vegan cake at a good price, and I found the place! Yvonne's Vegan Kitchen... The best! The cake is so yummy, shaped like a heart, just how I wanted it! And the service? So sweet! No wonder they make sweets!! Haha. Yvonne and Rachel helped me out! They are so cute... Sweethearts! My birthday party was so much better with my charming cake! I'm really grateful for everything, and I highly recommend it! Renata Sarmento read more

I found Yvonne's kitchen on Instagram and decided to slide into their DM's to inquiry about pricing, to my surprise they responded fairly quickly and passed along an email address I could use to place a custom cake. Once I sent the email I was in contact with Lee, who not only helped me find a cake that was in my price range but made sure I could pick my cake up a day before. The experience was so seamless, prompt, respectful, kind, caring, and beyond what I typically have experienced at most places in Los Angeles. (The service is typically good in Los Angeles, but Yvonne's was so welcoming). Before getting the cake they already had me in a good place. They had respected my price range, responded to my emails, dm's, were easy, sweet, and just overall wonderful. But I couldn't have imagined the experience getting any better until we received the cake. Whoa - exceptional. We followed the instructions and let it sit out for a few hours, and the minute we got into the cake it blew my mind. VEGAN, GLUTEN FREE? Can't be???? But it is and it's delicious. The inside was spongey and moist (apologies to people who don't like that word), filled with incredible vanilla icing, and the outside tasted like heaven. I got a chocolate butterscotch cake, and it just melted in my mouth. I can't say enough how much Yvonne and Lee made our day. Birthday's can be harsh, depressing and trauma inducing for some people - so when you're lucky enough to deal with bakeries like theirs, it's a true blessing. Thanks for being incredible and for sending over a cake that not only blew our expectations out of the water, but for topping it with a wonderful customer experience. read more

I absolutely recommend this place, especially for my dairy and gluten intolerant peers. My faves were the carrot cup cake, thin mint cookie, and faux-tess. I got to meet the one and only Yvonne who is kind and chill. One thing I didn't see on the menu and would love to request is Chantilly cakes which I love and have never seen vegan versions of. read more

I am beyond happy about this vegan cake. My birthday is around February & on their website they had heart shaped cake options. This personalized cake is absolutely gorgeous! They did such a wonderful job decorating it. It was very elegant & classy. It also tasted amazing too. I don't usually like cake, but really love the taste & texture of vegan cakes. This one did not disappoint. Their website was easy to use too. They take orders as late as a week, but allow a late service fee for those that need it sooner. It was such a smooth process & it was exactly what I wanted for my birthday. I got white frosting with funfetti type cake. I am a very satisfied customer & hope to get future bday cakes here. Thank you for making my bday so special with this beautiful cake. read more

I have been mostly purchasing items as gifts for others, but everything that I tried myself was good! I shared items with those at a local cat cafe called Tail Town (where one of the cats is named "Miss Yvonne"). The vegan cupcakes, donuts, and cookies were all well received! So, I hope others also visit for vegan bakery treats! read more

Where was this place when I was avoiding dairy??? Sampled coffee cake and ube bread. Left with pandan cake and some mini doughnuts. Overall, you can taste the quality ingredients in these. There's slightly less moisture in these than the non vegan counterparts, but the ingredient quality taste makes up for it. I enjoyed the pandan cake. Not too sweet and had a pandan flavor. The frosting didn't have any flavor of soy or coconut or anything indicating it was vegan besides slightly in texture. I'll definitely come back to try more. read more

YVK made me the most beautiful birthday cake ever! Like, the level of care that went into it was so evident--all the flowers placed onto the cake complemented one another, color wise, and I can't thank them enough for truly making my birthday special and beautiful! Can't wait to make this a yearly tradition! :) read more

Yvonne's is upping the vegan gluten free landscape in LA! Best scones around, pies are perfection. Worth the price and really, it's all so good. The crumb-cake is like crack. you will become addicted and you will come back for more. Parking is well, Pasadena parking...You could almost miss it, right off Fair Oaks...Some balloons outside might do some good, but Pasadena probably won't allow them. In any case, Thanks Yvonne and your great staff. You make many vegans happy! read more

By far one of the best cakes I've had. I'm not even Vegan , but man have you all up the game on taste. I even went back to the bakery myself a week after my birthday and had your pumpkin loaf, cookies , blueberry lemon curd cake and stuffed cookies. read more

This vegan bakery is as good as it gets. The cakes, pies, bars and cookies are incredible. Plus the owner Yvonne and her manager Lee are most lovely. My personal favorite items are the taro pie, thin mint cookies and the cranberry dill cheese/crackers. Yvonne's is a perfect 10! read more

Hands down one of the best apple pies I've ever had. As a non- vegan, I pride myself on hating people that show up to normal social functions with their vegan only offerings upsetting all the non-vegan taste buds. Well this one ain't that situation, and I unashamedly took some home in my to go bag. I gave myself the side eye for my own actions. Only people deep in the baking game might be able to tell it's vegan or gluten free. Banana pie, choco buddy pie and a little of the apple pie corner i needed to clean up the edges on came home with me. Fire. I only shared with the people back home for confirmation in my surprised assessment. I was not wrong, but later regretted sharing once it was gone. read more

I looooooooove Yvonne's baked goods and cheeses. Everything I've tried at Yvonne's is magical. When I read the ingredients list I can pronounce everything on the short list. My favorite is the cashew pumpkin pie. The new storefront is cozy and keeps me coming back for more. Yvonne, like her treats, is so sweet! She offers the best help and it is impeccable service like this that will keep me coming as she's now made a loyal customer out of me. read more

omg all i can say is yazzzzz my favorites are the goat cheese, lemon cupcake and pretty much everything just go! read more

If you love sweets, you HAVE to try Yvonne's Vegan Kitchen. You don't have to be vegan or gluten free to enjoy it--promise. Those two are just bonuses. : ) Yvonne recently opened a storefront, and I'm glad she did! They make cakes, muffins, cupcakes, donuts, breads, have a grab-n-go section with fruit and drinks and more! I've liked everything I've tried so far and can't wait to go back. Let me know what you like when you go! The service is great and ambiance is cozy. You can even eat outside!

We just got some treats from Yvonne's - All vegan! Amazing products, everything we received, (especially the cheese) was just fabulous. I was skeptical on the Vegan cheese but to our surprise, it was amazing you couldn't tell that it was vegan! Chocolate covered donuts are so amazing - and the cookies are to die for! We are so glad we discovered Yvonne's - the service was fast, attentive and very well organized. We are delighted with our choice of treats and we will definitely need to order more! read more

Yvonne's Vegan Kitchen - Treats- Cookies, Goatless Cheese, Crackers and Chocolate covered donuts! - Desserts Near Me - Pasadena, California

This place is UNREAL. I've been vegan for almost 7 years and these are some of the best desserts I've ever had. They are quality products and DELICIOUS. The ingredient list is very easy to follow, which I loved. I got a slice of red velvet cake, slice of vanilla cake, lemon loaf and cranberry dill goat cheese. Everything was 10/10. I'm legit still dreaming about the cake and lemon loaf. I love that they had samples out. The samples are what actually persuaded me to buy the goat cheese. Really really hope this places thrives and more people experience their magic. Such a cute spot too with really warm familial service. read more

We got a gluten free cake and some cake pops for my daughter graduation and engagement party and both the items were to die for. A little on the sweeter side exactly the way I like it! Highly recommend read more

Met up w/ a close friend at this quaint upscale all Vegan bakery/caterer on opening hour Sunday 11am. We were lucky to have met the down to earth owner Yvonne, her sweat heart mother Pearla & personable employee Demi. They provided yummy samples that enticed us to purchase a plethora of delicious options which were all moist & not too sweet: Pumpkin loaf slice, Pandan loaf slice, Chocolate Chai cookie, Death By Chocolate cookie, Mini Chocolate donut, Mini Pink donut, Thin Mint cookie, Coffee cake, & a Cake ball. Pricey but keep in mind that the owner uses all unprocessed healthy vegan ingredients! There is no indoor seating but there are three 2 seat/umbrella sidewalk tables. There is metered street parking or a pay parking lot across the shop on the corner of Fair Oaks/Dayton St. Delight yourself w/ a box and gift another for someone special:) You will not be disappointed:) Can't wait to try her Vegan meals:) Also read the owners amazing inspirational journey on her website. It exemplifies all of her heart & soul efforts she pours into her business! read more

We got so many things and everything was incredible. If you're vegan you know vegan deserts can be hit or miss, this is the SPOT. Staff is very enthusiastic and the place is colorful and fun to be in! read more

This little bakery has some stand-out items that I really enjoyed. Their apricot ginger scone was phenomenal (and imagine you can't go wrong with any flavor scone here)! They also make savory nut-based vegan cheesees that are delicious as well as raw crackers. The scones and crackers were very satisfying and didn't take any hits to flavourful or texture despite being gluten-free. I did want to try their cupcakes, so I bought 6 different flavors. You can taste the love that is baked in. As someone who doesn't have celiac disease, gluten-free cupcakes are usually something I avoid, but if I had gluten intolerance, I would definitely come back for the cupcakes since they were good, but gluten is my homie. I will come back for their scones, vegan cheese and crackers! read more

This was my first time visiting Yvonne's Vegan Kitchen, and I'm so happy I found it! As I've been changing my eating habits, it's been hard to find treats that fit my new diet, but this place is perfect. Their sugar cookies are amazing and the chocolate cookies are incredibly moist and delicious. The best part is that everything is gluten-free and vegan! The shop is super clean and organized, and the staff is so kind. I had my dogs with me, and when I asked for a cup of water, the cashier happily handed me one for my pup, which I thought was really sweet. The great service, warm atmosphere, and delicious treats make me so excited to come back! read more

After my 2/12 review, I went back to Yvonne's Bakery on 3/17 and have to say, I was very pleasantly surprised. She changed all of the mislabeled items and she retrained all her employees. It's not often when a company actually listens to you. My concern was for my grandson's health, I am happy to say I can again buy him his favorite cupcakes. Thank you! read more

So good! I love the ginger molasses cookies and the vegan rice crispy treats. I'm not vegan but it is still one of my favorite dessert places read more
