Custom Cakes near El Monte, CA

“This weekend, at my niece’s Sweet 16 celebration, I tasted a cake that completely changed my mind about dessert. I usually hate cake—but this one? Hands down the most delicious, unforgettable slice I’ve ever had. I was so blown away, I had to ask my sister-in-law where she got it and the exact location. It was that good.“

“I have been going to Happy Bakery for years. They have the best cakes. I loves them. Highly recommend it.

Parking: It has plenty of parking all the times.

Kid-friendliness: It has great customer services.“

“This place was cleaner than expected, my friend got a cone yummy and i got a rainbow sherbet the sherbet was more on the sour side but rlly good. We will come back again. My friend thought the cone was exquisite and should be in a museum. Noooooo“

“Porto’s is always a great spot for sweets, especially their birthday cakes, which are some of the best. The food is also very tasty, and I really enjoy their coffee because it’s always well made. The service is very attentive and friendly. The only downside is that it can get quite crowded, especially on weekends when the lines are long.“

“Want to acknowledge Vanessa your supervisor for such exceptional customer service really appreciate her food delicious“

“I’ve been coming here for a little while now and it is absolutely delicious, I discovered this place by accident on my way to work one day and I was hooked on the first bite of that matcha croissant, oh my goodness let me tell you I thought how could something that looks simple and beautiful be this delicious from then on every time I get a chance I come by for some pastries for myself or for my coworkers and they all agree that these pastries are a delicious delight , just tried there turkey sandwich as well the flavor of that sandwich was absolutely amazing, definitely have found a new little place to go by myself or with friends“

“Paul is very nice and made me feel so welcomed! He remembered me even though I've only been there once. He was very knowledgeable about the menu and offered great recommendations. If I recall correctly, he said that the strawberry cake ball, coffee cake, and a few others were popular picks. There is only outdoor sidewalk seating (a total of 3 small tables with 2 seats each). The interior is tiny, and it carries the feel of a quick in-and-out pickup store. It's also right across the street from Pasadena's Central Park if you're looking for a stroll while you eat. It's very transit-accessible. It's a 5 minute walk from the A line Del Mar station. death by chocolate cookie ($3.85) - It's just a typical double chocolate cookie! It's a little gritty and dry (maybe it's gluten free?) but still delicious nonetheless. coffee cake ($5.88) - sweet, with a flavor of cinnamon (not in an overpowering way). If you enjoy coffee cake, definitely get this, as vegan coffee cake is a rarity in Pasadena and LA. ice cream sandwich ($9.25) - honestly, i think this was a little too sweet for me. The ice cream itself was plain vanilla soft serve, but when sandwiched by two entire chocolate chip cookies, I think the sweetness can be overpowering. Keep in mind that it also melts very fast (since it has the consistency of soft serve) and this makes it hard to keep the whole sandwich in shape. If you do not plan to eat it right away, I would not recommend getting this as it'll melt in a mere minute.“

“es el mejor lugar los mejores cafes y postres ynoseles olvide llevar su rikisimo pastel selos recomiendo. está rikisimo todo“

“I would like to recommend this bakery, they baked every day, so the bread always is fresh. highly recommend. tasty!!! A+.“

“My wife ordered a custom cake for my son's bday and it was perfect! This was a 4th custom cake with them and they always do an amazing job. Annie is a very talented baker and communicates well. Excellent value, service and quality. Highly recommended!“

“Definitely a pastry lovers’ indulging dream! Line was around the building on a Saturday afternoon, but moved pretty quickly. We were inside eyeing the pastries through the display in about 20 minutes. My favorite was the blueberry cheesecake crumble danish! The cream cheese was not overpowering and all the flavors were well balanced! The earl grey morning bun also a top contender with a strong enough earl grey flavor that was delectably enveloped in the flaky pastry. Cinnamon roll croissant was not too sweet and the center was the best bite! The french onion soup danish was good and tasted even better when warmed up at home. They should offer that option in store because it makes all the difference! Personally, as an almond croissant lover, I found the filling to be a little too sweet and leaned heavily on an almond extract flavor/aroma. All in all, pastries are of quality and I would return for more!“

“I had a problem with a product and call them up and they took care of it right away . They customer service.is great.“

“Best egg tarts in town. It’s carb worthy. Love the mini fruit tarts, pineapple buns, scallion buns, thick toast as well.“

“Great small cake shop that has unique flavors!“

“My little kid love this....😋“

“It was exactly 2 weeks before my daughter’s quinceanera. I had been considering making her cake but after a lot of stress and agonizing over what to do, I decided to stop into Sugar Mama’s just to see what they had to offer. Within about 10 minutes I was placing an order. The shop is very cute and the staff makes you feel instantly at ease. The order process was fairly straightforward. If anything there are almost too many options for flavors and additional toppings but that’s not a complaint. The day of our event came and the cake was beautiful. They took my inspiration photos and made her a gorgeous cake. It was delicious and reasonably priced too. Overall, we had a great experience with this business and will be back.“

“👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍“

“Highly recommend Baskin Robbins for your next cake order. Cakes taste amazing! Spoke to Brian, goes above and beyond to make your experience the best
Everyone at my baby shower loved the cake, were looking for seconds. My daughters bday was also another hit with their cakes yum! All the kids loved the jack skellington design ??
I will definitely continue ordering cakes here in the future“

“I love supporting small businesses. It is the spot when I crave for cheese cake or need pick it up for potlucks and parties. I love the Japanese Iced cheesecake . It's light, not too sweet Percy texture and so delicious. They have the original , matcha , strawberry and Oreo flavors. You can either one flavor or a set of all 4.

The taro snowflakes is a must try, creamy taro sponge cake made with real taro.

This shop is clean, cutesy and is family owned and I was helped by the owner's mom, she's super nice lady, the owner makes all the cakes.

They take cash, Venmo and Zelle as payment options.“

“Special Thanks to La Poblana Bakery!! We contacted Kelly last minute for pan dulce & coffee they responded really quick and they were also able to help us on Delivery it to us.
Pan dulce was delicious, we when back to thank them for what they did and also purchased more pan dulce to bring back home to Utah.
Thank you,
Rene C.“

“My family has been coming here well over 35 years ( in fact since they 1st opened )….We still continue to get my mothers birthday cake here ~ the only difference is we drive in from Phoenix ~ we bag it and place it on ice in a ice chest ~ This year she will get it a few days earlier. Happy 81st Birthday ?“

“Quite unique and yummy pastries.. Highly recommend“

“I can’t say enough great things! I went out on a limb and called Valentine Sweets. I live in New York, however my brother lives in Pasadena! I was doing a gender reveal for my friends and family in New York and wanted my brother to be included. I called early in the morning and spoke to the decorator Tatiana. I explained I needed one single custom gender reveal cupcake and she had no issues with the request or making it happen! A simple cute vanilla cupcake. Decorated with blue and pink sprinkles. And surprise pink frosting in the middle! She had the cupcake done within a couple hours for my brother to pick up! She had great communication and texted me when it was ready. Besides the fact that it was adorable,
My brother said it was delicious! I am upset I don’t live local myself to try it! Amazing service and communication. I can’t recommend enough for special occasions!“

“5 stars for the service but omg we just came to try the Tiger Milk Tea with boba and oh boy avoid at all costs. Whoever thought of it had a great idea and presentation(minus the vanilla scoop making it look like chunks of cheese floating around your tea) but awful awful execution. Also did not know the brown sugar boba was popping boba and it just felt like exploding gobs of caramel with each boba, very unpleasant. Get something else!!Also big sad there's no bubblegum flavor ice cream. :(“

“The girls here are always so nice and helpful. Very fast professional service always! Last night one of the girls showed my daughters and I how they hand make the waffle cones😃 I love this 31 Flavs in particular!“

“Store is great clean and employees are very helpful and courteous..small location but vary quaint“

“冰淇淋的份量很大，CP值高！“

“We got the ice cream cake with chocolate cake and chocolate chip and mint chip ice cream. The ice cream cake was good and fresh. The whip cream wasn’t that good but every else was good. We got great service. Everyone enjoyed the birthday cake. Ten out of ten recommend. They have plenty of parking and no public restroom.“

“These are amazing! Never had filled churros like these, they are sooo good. Highly recommend!“

“Girl those creme cheese muffins with bacon are to die for! We are very pleased with our cakes too. You are a true artist.“

“When the scoop’s too cold,
Lick it like it’s hot.
When the cone starts to fold,
Flip it like it’s not.
If your sprinkles hit the floor,
Scoop ‘em off the spot,
I got thirty-one flavors,
And they all taste hot!“

“Delicious and excellent price compare other bakey in the area.“

“I have been enjoying Baskin-Robbins for many years since I was very young I can remember my parents take myself and my two brothers enjoying a scoop of ice cream that's bring good memories in my childhood. My wife loves Baskin-Robbins also especially so many flavors to pick and flavor of the month. Every time we go out we always go to a Baskin-Robbins.“

“They have a great selection of bakery goods. I got the pandan sponge cake and it was just the right amount of sweetness and very moist. The lady who helped me was also very sweet. Give this place a shot. Good prices and i love their sponge cake!“

“Baskin Robbins is too overpriced. They didn't even have my flavor.“

“I ordered a custom cake from here, and it came out so beautiful and delicious! Such a good cake. Thank you to whoever made it. Honestly, they went above and beyond. It was definitely the star of the night. My sister loved it, and everyone was fighting for extra servings. Thank you!!“

“I’ve never had any rude interactions with these employees but you also have to understand that they also have a life so coming in with 5 minutes till closing with all your family members trying to figure out what they want puts them in overtime and me as a business man can’t afford to pay out that much O/T because you decided to wait to the very last moment . So get use to it it’s happening all around in a lot of businesses .“

“Baskin-Robbins is premium ice cream and is more expensive, but it worth it. The serving size is a generous scoop every time. The service is very friendly and helpful. They even offered water to a customer that was coughing and we were impressed with the concern the server had. Our granddaughter enjoyed her two scoops of ice cream so much that she wouldn't even share a little with us.“

“Always great!! A bit expensive though 😊😊😊“

“Just tried this bakery Omg absolutely delicious“

“My friend and I dropped by for some ice cream at around 8 PM on a Friday. It's a pretty small location, and at that time, it was not crowded at all, and the service was quick. On the wall, it said 6.99 for a small, but it seems like we were charged around 5.99 instead ( which is still expensive, in my opinion, but I suppose that's the state of our economy. It's better than paying 7 bucks at least ^_^ ). There are a variety of flavors and toppings to choose from. I got the cheesecake flavor with graham crackers. It was a good combination. There's outdoor seating available in this area. Overall, it's a good place for a quick, cool treat.“

“love Fabulous Cakes and frosting Supply!! This is the only store I frequent, so close to home. Virginia is slways so helpful and very knowledgeable.“

“It's In n Out. What more is there to say? It's the closest location to my place. I guess they could cook their fries a bit better. But as always. Great food quality. The only downside to this location is that the parking suck, and when it gets busy. Forget getting in. The lot is so small that the car line to get in is ridiculously long and sometimes blocks traffic.“

“I went into this location looking for a cake for my daughter’s birthday. It was very last minute and they didn’t have the cake she wanted. David went above and beyond! He took my number, made some calls, and called me within an hour to confirm my daughter will have her cake for her birthday. Great service! Thank you.“

“Disappointed to say the least the ice cream wasn’t made properly, the employee was least bothered to even ask what I wanted. It felt like so much pressure to just ask for a sample and decide if I wanted that, the loud music made it so hard to hear the person and for the person to actually even listen. Wanted to take it to go but wasn’t even asked if I wanted that and felt forever to ask for a lid. Not to mention the ice cream literally has no toppings except the m&ms paid more than $10 to get nothing but a bad tasting ice cream.
Edit: The manager followed up and was kind enough understanding the situation and offered to make the ice cream and make it right. That was really sweet and I appreciate that since I got the ice cream after a few days from my initial visit and she remembered me, also gave me the sample for churro ice cream!! Made my experience better“
