12 Best Bakeries in El Cajon

“Best cookie ever!! I think they are a 10/10 would eat them again!!“

“I’m so impressed! —from the moment I called to place my order, they were genuinely excited to help and made me feel like my request really mattered. When I walked in, I was greeted with the same kindness and enthusiasm. They went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect, and the whole experience felt so thoughtful and personal. Of course the cake was amazing!“

“What a lovely discovery! The young man working was so helpful and kind. I wasn’t familiar with the menu so he prepared an amazing “variety tray” of items for me to try. Everything was SO GOOD! A wonderful alternative to pre-packaged treats, and a beautiful, clean atmosphere with pleasant, patient staff.“

“We came here for the Baklava and Turkish delight. The honey Baklava was easily my favorite as it has a less harsh sweetness than the other kinds I tried. They were still amazing but the honey one just stood above the rest.
We also got a few kinds of Turkish delight the star definitely being the small rose ones that had wonderfully delicate rose flavor that avoided the pitfall of tasting like perfume.
For drinks we had the Pistachio late which sublime, perfectly roasted coffee and pistachio flavor. Also tried Mina's signature drink that was a rice pudding late with hazelnut flavor, it was very reminiscent of an horchata with different spices. I greatly enjoyed it.“

“Amazing customer service, people always smiling and doing their best to serve customers. Always leave the place with a sweet feeling ;)“

“The only bread I eat. Specifically the brown pita. Tastes the best.“

“Today, I bought a cake for my sister, and the service was excellent. The staff was friendly, joking, and laughing, creating a great atmosphere. I don’t understand why some people say their service isn’t good—we’ve been buying from them regularly and have never had a bad experience! I would give them a well-deserved 5 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️, plus an extra 10 stars for the wonderful lady who provided outstanding service ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.“

“Love the food, and the workers there are super sweet. ( pun not intended )“

“Dream Fountain is the place to go for all your desserts and catering needs. Martin and Ivan do an amazing job on their work, and their cakes are very detailed. For my sons baptism cake, it was done at Dream Fountain. It was so detailed and was very good. My wife and I couldn't have imaged the cake any better then this! They never disappoint!! Highly recommended!“

“Ahearn Team Real Estate purchased 300 pies to give back to the community for thanksgiving. The pies were delicious, kosher, and a huge success, thank you to Langs! They were delivered at the promised time and very reasonable on the price for such a large order. Our clients in the community were thrilled with how tasty they were and the presentation was lovely. We look forward to coming back to Langs each year for our annual giveaway.“

“Visiting the area & stopped in because it was close to where we were - glad we did. The best frappes we’ve had, no joke! Cozy little coffee shop. Good service.“

“Christy's donuts in El Cajon has the best donuts. They don't have a shiny new store like that other place in Santee, but they have better tasting donuts the owner and his family run the shop and they are so very nice.

Instead of cakes, we've started treating ourselves to Christy's donuts.

😋 Delicious!“
