Ordered a cake for my sister's birthday. White cake filled with pastry cream, topped with berries and covered in white chocolate shavings. Maria was so helpful and thoughtful about details. It was absolutely beautiful and delicious!!!

Top notch bakery for your cake needs. I ordered a chocolate cake for a birthday, they made a perfect chocolate cake. Everyone loved it and it tasted amazing. They work with you to get your cake when you need it. The customer service was exceptional as well.

Saw the other reviews about the raspberry chocolate seduction cake and had to try it. I was not disappointed. I got one with purple icing for my friend's birthday who had family visiting from out of town and everyone loved it (including me). Amazing!

I was tired of my family purchasing bland cakes for my birthday, so I decided to take charge and buy my own cake. After a few searches I found M & M Patisserie and boy I am glad I did. I ordered the Raspberry chocolate seduction cake and it was absolutely delicious. My family complimented it on how good it was!! The chocolate has the perfect amount of sweetness, the fruits are fresh and the decoration was pretty. Maria took my order, she's so nice and sweet. She was very attentive and asked some questions to make my birthday cake special. Thank you M&M Patisserie! I will definitely keep purchasing delicious cakes from you.

I purchased a birthday cake for my son's 50th birthday this past weekend. All i knew was he loves chocolate and i wanted a fruit filling for 12. Maria recommended the Chocolate Raspberry Seduction. OMG! It was a huge hit and beyond delicious. What i appreciated most was she asked questions and contacted me with ideas to customize to fit the occasion perfectly. I had purchased a cake topper and gold candles to match the party theme and decor. She incorporated those into her design. I love that she kept in touch with me from the time i placed the order until i picked it up 2 hours before the party. She also told me how to store it during the party to ensure that it would be perfection for serving time. Maria is a joy to work with and the cake was a show stopper!! Thank you sooo much, M&M!

So I found this place thanks to Yelp. The reviews were good enough for me to take a chance.......And WOW!!! I'm glad I did.From the first phone call to the last, Maria (I think) was nothing but nice and helpful. Her patience was very considerate.I wound up getting the Bailey Irish Cream Cheesecake. It was beautifully decorated for the holiday (St.Patrick's) and tasted like heaven. It was just the right consistency and you could really taste the Baileys flavor without it being too overpowering.I will make this my first call the next and every time I need a cake for a special occasion.

I ordered our first cake for my husband's birthday - a delicious, moist and beautifully decorated carrot cake. I will definitely order from M&M again. This is a hidden gem in La Mesa I have driven by for years. Can't wait to try the Tres Leches or any other desert. Maria bakes with ❤.

I wanted a "real" carrot cake for my birthday. My sister usually makes me one, but she is a long way away. Restaurants are always out when you go to dinner...and that's the only reason I go out for dinner is the carrot cake dessert. I ordered one from Maria and it is SO delicious. Has all the ingredients I love and the real buttercream cheese frosting. It is so worth it. I definitely recommend her and the bakery. She gave me mini cheese cake and Flan and they were incredible,too. Maria is so kind. It made me feel special on my birthday. Merci, Maria!

I ordered a cake for a going away luncheon sight unseen. And I had never tasted any of Maria's creations before. Boy am I glad I found her! I ordered the lemon wedding cake and she customized it with a message for us. Not only was it absolutely beautiful but it was so light and flavorful. It was a huge hit with the entire party. I don't often have occasion to order desserts or pastries but this will be my first choice any time I do.
Maria is very kind. She told me that her husband of many years died last year, so it's just her making the cakes. She was able to make a very last minute cake that was a delicious lemon buttercream. Honestly, the price surprised me, but as I'm no longer baking for my family, so it worked out well. The cake was perfectly moist and perfectly sweetened & creamy. It was a beautifully decorated cake-no tacky pre-made accessories here. While waiting to pack the cake she gave me a sample of a macadamia nut tartlette and it was so delicious- light buttery crust. I can't wait to try other creations by Maria. Just know she does not have a storefront but calls back if messages are left on the phone.

Ordered 2 bday cakes, lemon Bavarian cream. The cakes were flavorful and beautifully decorated. The owner was so incredibly kind and warm. I'll definitely be ordering from them again.

This place is amazing! I needed a cake for my sister-in-law’s birthday and not only was it decorated beautifully, but my family said it was the best cake they’ve ever had. The staff is also very nice and accommodating.

Best lemon cake and buttercream ever. I ordered a cake for my wife's birthday on the recommendation of a friend. The cake had to have been made with real lemon juice, since it tasted so fresh, with the perfect amount of tang. The buttercream was the ideal complement, and it wasn't 'just' frosting, it was a tasty part of the whole cake This is a small shop, opened in 2005 by a husband and wife, and when her husband passed away last year, Maria is doing it on her own. She doesn't have a storefront, so everything is pretty much on demand and made to order. You call her, she calls you back and explain what you want and she hooks you up. I absolutely recommend M&M. Oh, and the macaroons are delicious!

Maria made recommendations and special touches for my son’s birthday cake. It’s so good to support a local business who is doing such great work!
