Love love love everything here, the matcha strawberry dessert really what got my attention yet everything we got was yum!! Durian cake in a jar- I ended up buying 2 more to bring home. I love durian and first cake find! The ladies working were wonderful too. I will be coming back. 💕
I was able to try these out in California adventure park during the Chinese be year celebration. These were delightful fresh and fruity treats. We tried the lychee panda cream dessert that was paired with a green tea matcha dessert. We also tried a mango grapefruit crepe cake. They were fun to eat and look at. Highly recommend!
The restaurant is tucked away in a first-floor corner. They offered great selections, and I was pleasantly surprised to find a coconut jelly dessert!

Yu Cake is a charming cafe located inside South Coast Plaza, near the Saks 5th Avenue entrance. It resembles the popular chain Lady M but offers its own unique cakes. The selection includes flavors like Matcha Strawberry French Mousse, Caramel Coffee Cheesecake, Hazelnut Chocolate Mille Crepe Cake, and Durian Mille Crepe Cake. The cakes are visually delightful and made with love, making them a special treat. The cafe has a bright, clean atmosphere with plenty of seating, both inside and outside, perfect for a quick break during shopping.
Customers appreciate the creative coffee drinks and the variety of flavors available. Some find the prices a bit high, ranging from $9.35 to $11.75 per cake, but the beautiful packaging and friendly service make up for it. The cakes' consistency and sweetness are praised, especially the Matcha Strawberry French Mousse, which many consider perfect. The durian Mille Crepe Cake is also a favorite, and the caramel coffee cheesecake is highly recommended.
While the service can sometimes be slow during busy times, it remains a cozy spot to pause, enjoy a sweet treat, and sip on coffee or tea. The cafe is especially popular during the holiday season, making it a nice little escape from the shopping hustle. Overall, Yu Cake offers a good cake experience with a variety of flavors and a lovely atmosphere.
