“It's Cold Stone...you know the routine. Pick your ice cream and what size you want then choose what you want them to mix into it. They smack and slap it together on a (wait for it) cold stone. Serve and enjoy.I got coffee ice cream with Heath bar pieces mixed in.The coffee ice cream had above average flavor. Not weak but could have been more bold. The creaminess was right on. Usually the mix-in pieces are small but this time they were monstrously huge and plentiful. I liked it! It was like they just took one swing of a hammer to a Heath bar and dumped the whole bar of chunks into the ice cream.There is some seating out in front of the store which is where I sat and ate my "like it" size cup of ice cream. Staff were pleasant and efficient and did a superb job of spanking the ice cream.“
“My go-to for sweets! Staff are welcoming and friendly. Communication for cake ordering went smoothly. Best of all, my mom loved her birthday cake! Thank you! Highly recommend Sugar From the Heart! I just added the cake topper purchased from etsy :)“
“My girl and I finally made to eat here, today is our 2nd attempt, 1st time said was open but when we arrived was closed. Today i had the chicken wrap which can be pair with green salad or chips and pistachio smoothie for my girl a croissant sandwich and cucumber lemonade. My wrap is really good as well as the smoothie, I'm impressed, now in my girls case lemonade is good, not sweet which is good, the croissant was good but so poor, inside only a slice of tomato, one slice of cheese, one single slice of ham some jalapeño and some greens all this make the sandwich super thin , in my personal opinion this croissant can be prepare better and bigger with more ingredients ,and of course couple more bucks . Will definitely come back and try their breakfast . And our dessert was oatmeal, . They have a nice variety of coffee, frappes, teas cookies, muffins and more,. Workers are very friendly. Cozy place Decorated with Friends framesParking: Look for street parking, at least in this area there are not parking meters“
“An Echo Park staple with the greatest cakes and bread. Ive been coming here since I was a child and it brings me so much joy to patron a long standing family owned business. They're so friendly and always have an awesome selection of treats!“
“I have to say this is the best Panderia I have ever been to . The bread is an amazing !!! The coffee is fire and the service is excellent . This place is a must try . So happy to have found this place and be so close . This will for sure be my go to Saturday mornings“

“Vegetarian options: My husband and I are the second time we have ordered from this Bakery. On Thursday we ordered a vegan, sugar-free cake for our baby who was turning 1 year old. The theme was kittens, butterflies and flowers because that's what my baby likes the most. And the truth was it was the most beautiful and exquisite. I highly recommend it.“
“Who doesn't love cupcakes!? While out and about, I came across Coco’s Lip Smacking Cupcakes. The sign said it all for me and I had to check it out. When I entered, the space was very clean, organized, and just very appealing to the eye. The aesthetic was very cute and definitely my vibe. They offer a bunch of different yummies including cookies, cake, cobbler, and of course, cupcakes. The lady was very sweet and helpful. I went with a dozen cupcakes. I got a variety of different flavors. I got red velvet, chocolate, vanilla, cookies & cream, and a few others.The cupcakes were so good!! The cake part was very moist and the frosting just melted in your mouth. It wasn't heavy or too sweet. If I'm in the area, I'll have to pick up some more! Thank you for a great experience!! “
“If you haven't ordered a cake from here Go! NOW! They are so moist and delicious. We have ordered them at work for coworkers birthday and it comes with a sign and a bow. So festive and special. The cakes are also ready same day or you can order ahead. My favorite flavors are chocolate,lemon, and carrot.“
“I came in, everything from cookies to the slices of cake looked amazingly delicious!! Definitely the environment felt welcoming and especially the young girl taking control front end with a very positive and well attended to costumers!! When I say I took a bite at the Oreo chocolate slice cake I purchased, wow! Definitely what I was looking for taste and texture from a cake. The cake sponge wasn’t dry nor soggy but texture was at its best touch, the pairing with the frosting wasn’t overwhelming with sweetness but the perfect touch. Wow I say this MOM AND POPS business pls continuing being you and share the amazing love you give in into the next generation of amazing pastries!!! I can’t wait to come the next time when I place my order for sister’s birthday cake!!!!“
“I was desperately looking for a place to order some cookies for my son's school Christmas party. We needed large gingerbread shaped cookies for decorating. But I needed mine to be eggless bc of his egg allergy. Everyone I called said I needed to order a week in advance. Gladis not only made themonly a day in advance, but she adjusted the ingredients to make them eggless!! They came out beautifully and everyone loved them! I had a taste and think they actually taste better than the normal cookies with egg. I will 1000% will be placing many more orders with her. She was quite literally an answered prayer. 10/10 would recommend!“
“I am new to Bellflower, and haven't really acclimated yet. I needed a birthday cake asap. I am so happy I found Fantasy Cakes Bakery. The owner took my order and he was very personable.. I ordered the cake Friday afternoon and it was ready for pick-up Saturday morning... The bakery was not even a five minute drive from my house, lots of ample parking in the back, and the shop is too cute.. that whole area has lots of curb appeal... I don't ever drive that way (work in the opposite direction). The cake was adorable, it was perfect... it wasn't an elaborate cake, but it was perfect for me. I wasn't able to take any pictures, it was eaten in like, 2.4 seconds. I don't even like cake or sweets, but I liked that cake... The cake had lemon cream filling and vanilla frosting, it was moist and just very delicious... all the February birthday names fit perfectly and they loved it... one of my nieces kinda had a tear.. not sure cause I remembered her birthday or maybe because she was suppose to give up sweets for lent.. Anywho, this bakery is a win, win, win... Thanks Fantasy Cakes for making me the best auntie ever!!“
“I love buying custom cakes frm Maggy. She is always very detailed, easy to talk to and makes the best cakes. Everyone loves them,she did my daughters birthday cake and I called her last minute. She went beyond my expectations for sure. She made another amazing cake which was yellow cake with Chocolate Ganache. As you can see we have enjoyed the cake. It was Inspired by the Holidays and she went above and beyond. Don’t hesitate to call her for your cake needs. She makes very delicious cakes, and they all are very unique.Thank you Maggy.“
“Dien from Sweet Deetails helped make the cake, cake bars, and custom sugar cookies for my sis's bday and they were a hit! They were beautiful and made the dessert table stunning.Dien is a true artist, a creative at heart, and very busy, but also easy to work with. She did an amazing job with the cake bars and sugar cookie colors and artwork.One thing that wows me about Dien is her attention to the small details and her overall artistic vision. You can tell her the direction you want to take, provide some inspiration photos, details about colors and key elements, and somehow she comes back with an interesting sketch.She can make your vision come to life.Dien has such pride and ownership in what she does that she'll even make small suggestions that improve the overall piece.1 four-inch cake1 dozen custom sugar cookies (red & white)1 dozen custom cake bars (flowers)All her goodies look professionally baked and uniform which makes for a good setup and photo!We also have went into her shop and bought her cupcakes as well. They're delicious!I personally loved the cake bars.Beautifully doneDeliciousProfessionalLocalDeliversOur family uses Dien for all extra special events. Book well in advance, this business will deliver! (Both in expectations and to your house haha)My family loves the custom cookies, cupcakes, and cake bars.The only improvements I could think of may be personal preference, but I've always felt the cake is a bit dense. I suspect it may make it more structurally sound especially for tall or multi-tier cakes, but I have a biased love for soft, moist, airy cakes.I also know the team is masterful with fondant, but if you wanted something to be specifically buttercream instead, make sure to specify and to see if it's possible.“
“Great coffee- and I’m pretty picky about my double short Americano. The fresh baked goods are also tasty, with a Mexican flair like the guava/cheese danish and the chocolate tres leches muffin. Small place with a few tables. Very friendly service.“
“The employee were very friendly, kind and welcoming. We were traveling from out of town and stopped in and tried the sweet bread and chocolate cakes. I would strongly encourage you to stop in and try all the great things the have. Very pleased to go somewhere and feel welcomed and appreciated. Please give them a try. Also I like the cashiers eye lid make up done in red , white and green ..“
“It's such a joy to find friendly people that do great work. First time getting my cake at Calico and I absolutely loved it ! It was made so delicately, made us not want to eat it, but glad we did because the inside was just as perfect! Taste fresh and so yummy. Thank you for making an amazing cake!“
“We ordered a vegan pumpkin pie & apple crumble pie. They were both very delicious. Everyone enjoyed them on thanksgiving. They also make bomb vegan cookies.Dietary restrictions: My daughter cant have eggs dairy or gluten & they were able to swap out items & make a delicous vegan pumpkin pie & vegan cookies.“
“New ownership since the last time I stopped by a few years ago, but happy to see someone move into the spot. More of a classic panederia now vs the modern Mexican that was there before, but still very good. The new owners are definitely “mom and pop”, very hard working and very friendly. They didn’t have what I was looking for, which were the mini churros with dipping sauce for my office mates, so I tried a few other options and everyone seemed to love what I brought in. They gave me a card and said I can pre-order anything I wanted, including the mini churros sans dipping sauce as well as other mini versions of their regular pastries. Will definitely be back!“
“We pre-ordered a cake online and it was ready to be picked up when we arrived. Nothing Bundt Cakes is usually a solid option if you need a cake or want mini bundt cakes to share for an event. I always thought the cakes were tasty and moist.“
“I work up the street at Haros Barbershop and I needed a cake for my mom’s Birthday. Honestly hands down the best cakes in South Gate ! Even after a few days in the fridge it taste fresh and fluffy and their cream is amazing ! Please check them out ! Red velvet and Tres leches taste absolutely amazing !“
“sweet potato cake here is so good. it's topped with a soft crumb and decorative, chewy sweet potato slices. the cream is just the right amount of sweetness, and the sweet potato paste is delicious. i would highly recommend the cake here! heavenly.“
“If you're a desert lover like myself, and you're looking for a good cake or slices at that point, then you're missing out if you don't come to SusieCakes to get yourself some of this goodness. This place rocks.!!! service is always good, the people that work there are super friendly, and the place is spotless on top of all that.Now onto the cakes, in my opinion, these things are absolutely perfect. They're rich decadent, and I'm telling you one slice of this cake is enough for two servings easily but I do like to buy the full cake there and I'm telling you it feels like this thing weighs about 10 pounds, yes it is a little bit more pricier than some of the other bakeries in town but 100% you get what you pay forThe red velvet is the best in the business, the chocolate cake is also fire, and if you want something a little old school go with the carrot cake. I feel like the cupcakes and be a little dry at times but I've never had a problem with the cakes or the slices always moist and delicious.They do an excellent job of decorating and you can also order online, which is a bonus I've got a mini Nixon cake from this place and never have been disappointed. Don't walk ,RUN to Susie cakes to get yourself a delicious cake for any occasion.“

“I go here all the time and the girls are lovely and helpful. Sometimes some customers are really rude to them but they still serve them with a smile. Sometimes we forget that customer service is hard especially when treated that way. So I appreciate each one of them for doing a good job.“
“My girlfriend and I went since I got a birthday BOGO and it was great. I got banana ice cream with Oreo pans peanut butter cups mixed in with a chocolate dipped waffle cone with nuts. It was magical and my girlfriend got their Mud pie signature ice cream. There wasn't much of a line and we were served quickly and she was patient while I went back and forth about what I wanted. Over all it was a great experience and the ice cream was so creamy and amazing. I will surely be back. Even my cat was trying to get a taste once we got back in the car with him lol:“

“This little bake shop is awesome!! It's small and I loved the decorations. Went in to inquire about ordering cupcakes for my office. I was greeted instantly with a big smile and hello. Customer service is great and the cupcakes...OMG...so good. Hard to choose a favorite. The one that caught my eye was the Boston Cream cupcake. I love Boston Cream anything so of course had to give that one a try along with a few others including red velvet, cookies & cream, chocolate and vanilla. I did not try it, but they also have a vegan cupcake which I'm now intrigued about. Highly recommend. Stop by if you are in the area.“
“I was stressing looking for places who did cakes like this for a friend of mine, and on a short notice i came cross this place and she was so kind and understanding on how i would want the cake she was quick and over all made sure she would give me what i had in my mind she also delivered it the same day. I drove a long way and i was not disappointed i was scared but OMFG it was beautiful i loved it and will now come and grab any future cakes here. I 10000 percent recommend.“
“My kids love their birrote its nice and fresh for their tortas, and I love your capirotada cookies my hubby loves their cochinitos the small ones, they have good bread for everyone in the city I live in b.g and I have to drive to hp nice cashiers thanks for our daily fresh bread one happy “
“Great ice cream! Cold stone never fails on providing great service, however staff here is very very low. Probably just one or two people are serving, so expect longer wait times than usual if there’s a lot of people. Other than that, staff is friendly and do their best to be efficient and quick. I notified that they support local business, if you buy a pizza nearby (business on flyer) you’ll get a discount there at cold stone upon showing receipt.“
“I came here for the strawberry passion cake for a birthday. They has the different cakes inside a freezer where you can pick what kind of cake you wanted. They also offered different sizes. I picked my cake and paid. It was quick and the cashier was friendly.“
“What a wonderful bakery! I needed a last minute birthday cake and the staff here was so incredibly helpful and made us the exact cake we needed in time for the party, plus matching macarons. We will definitely be back everyone loved the desserts.“
