“Came here for a pit stop and grabbed a torta. I meant to order something else, but language barrier (and my stupidity) ended up with me getting something different. I realized my mistake too late, so rolled with what they gave me. It wasn't bad, but I've had better tortas. I would come again, but try something different next time.“

If you’re short on time, I recommend calling ahead to place your order. I also picked up a double-baked almond croissant for my mom, and she said it was absolutely delicious. All the pastries looked incredible! I highly recommend checking out this gem!“

“One of THE best bakeries in Salinas. Every cake we've ordered from here has gone abive and beyond our expectations. Our last cake we ordered was a moon cake in which we were expecting something pretty simple. Well the gal that runs the place did a frosting painting of a night sky with moon on it. Looked way better than what we were thinking about to begin with. (We were alsp pretty vague when we ordered and literally just said "moon cake") All I was expecting was a grey cake with some black circles, instead I get a Monalisa moon cake. Put far more effort than we ever expected. And the cake is incredible by the way. Frosting so soft its hard to even feel it. Best cakes and this is for sure our main bakery both for aready and going forward.“

“First time ordering from Cake Express and they did not disappoint. I was a walk in customer,I went in Staff was friendly and right away welcomed me in.I asked them if they could make a cake with a pic. for Sat.this was a Frid.1 day before the party.So I was hoping they didn't say it was not enough notice of time however got the opposite they quickly said sure what kind would you like! Results were amazing my daughter's photo looked amazing and the cake was yummy everyone enjoyed it and not to pricey either.“

“This place is deliciously good!! Would recommend stopping by. I also ordered through door dash and it didn't give me full option to mix and match mini Cookies but when I called, the gentleman was nice enough to change it for me. Very kind and courteous.“
