Custom Cakes near South San Francisco, CA

“I cannot say enough about The Cake Queen and Coffee Bar. The cake was just what we wanted. They worked with me, making everything easy. The taste of the cake was equally amazing and received rave reviews at my nieces baby shower.“

“I hadn’t been to J&J Bakery since they had changed ownership from Sanitary Bakery. After figuring out Starbucks coffee across the street prompts me stomach issues, I decided to give J&J Bakery a visit. Today, I got their coffee, cream, and sugar. I was impressed by the flavor and freshness of the coffee. Additionally I got me a sugar twist, an apple turnover, and a brownie. I took a bite of each before writing this review and they all taste better than anything I’ve had at Starbucks. It’s sad that by virtue of habit we go to corporation chain stores and never give the local moms and pops store a chance.I recommend this bakery for its coffee and pastries. Give it a shot instead of Starbucks. You won’t be disappointed.“

“Wonderful service. They accommodated our custom requests that were placed shortly before the delivery date was due.The cake itself was delicious and a hit amongst everyone. The fact that the cake was not too sweet was the icing on the cake, so to speak.“

“Ordered birthday cake and it was divine. Cake was so moist and delicious. Customer service was fantastic too. Will definitely order again“

“I’ve never been here in person but I’ve frequently ordered the hand-scooped pints from here on Doordash, and they always give a generous amount. The grasshopper pie flavor is the best by far and might be my favorite ice cream flavor ever. The ube and strawberry flavors are also really good.“

“Fantastic bakery on Cortland. I randomly stopped by one time at the end of my urban walk (it’s how I justify the calories!). I ordered one of their apricot Jam croissants and it was so good! I went back a couple of weeks later and got a slice of their maple pie (like pecan pie without the pecan). And that was as good as the croissant. Definitely worth a visit!“

“Must try Affogato!! Espresso poured over Vanilla ice cream or over your favorite ice cream. Delicious 😋“

“We had a great experience working with Yana at My Baking Creations! Yana was responsive, creative and an amazing cake artist/baker. From start to end of the process, Yana was communicative and helpful to bring our design idea into fruition. Delivery was seamless and on-time as well. The cake had beautiful fondant work and the chocolate cake tasted divine and decadent. Looking forward to going to Yana again for future birthday cakes!“

“Great place & cakes!“

“soooooooooo........goooooood 😋🤤💯❤ All the Cookie dough and Hot Chocolate 💯❤🤤😋“

“We had such a wonderful experience working with Cake Coquette! From the start, she showed us a variety of beautiful examples, listened to our ideas, and within minutes designed a stunning custom cake that felt perfectly “us.”

She even customized the flavor to create a Black Forest cake, which turned out absolutely delicious. The whole process was fun, creative, and effortless — truly one of the highlights of our wedding planning. Our cake looked incredible, tasted amazing, and reflected our style perfectly. Highly recommend Cake Coquette for anyone looking for a personal, professional, and inspired cake experience!“

“Great service, delicious treats, and lovely patio for outdoor dining💕“

“lisa is my to go person when it comes to ordering a cake I Love her work the cakes taste and look amazing she is 100% recommended by me and my husband 🥰“

“We tried hokkaido sponge cake, crème brûlée, chestnut slice cake, tiramisu and chocolate mousse cake on various occasions. They all were delicious. The staff was also friendly. It’s hard to find parking due to the busy downtown location. The place gets crowded very quickly. Their egg tarts and buns are also popular.“

“Incredible choice of pastries! Wow! First time visit did not disappoint 😊“

“If you are ever in need of satisfying your sweet tooth and or a wonderful customer service experience, A Girl Named Pinky is one of the finest local bakeries in the San Francisco Bay Area. Tina, the owner is amazing at what she does and puts much so effort into her work. I can’t pinpoint a specific dessert because they can whip up just about anything. My favorite in particular is Tina’s delicious red velvet cupcakes. The treats are tasty and made with love. More than that, Tina provides superior customer service. Tina’s staff at the UC Berkeley location is always going above and beyond to make sure that everything is perfect and with a smile. A Girl Named Pinky is valued in the local community and their dedication to you is unmatched. You can place an order online and they are still open for business during the pandemic. Please go support!!“

“This place is a hole in the wall. We ordered a slice of the following: matcha slice cake, tiramisu slice cake and black sesame slice cake. Omg. Their slice cake is a bit expensive but it so worth it. My favorite is the black sesame cake. My sister in law was the matcha cake. We had to order a cake for a birthday so guess what we ordered?“

“You definitely need to know what order here:
Egg tarts and BBQ pork buns are made fresh in the morning and honestly quite the hidden gem here. I'm an egg tart connoisseur, and for a hole in the wall in the Mission, it actually is one of the better egg tarts in SF, in fact, the peninsula. (Try to buy them earlier in the day though).

Many of the other items are a gamble though; many of the cakes don't seem fresh. It's probably best to ask the employees when each thing was baked.“

“Best. Cakes and cupcakes ever. I recommend Lelenita's Cakes to everyone.“

“This is a cute little bakery and very busy most of the time. The service was great, but it felt so rushed that I didn’t get to see all the options because there was a long line behind me. Good business, I suppose.

I ordered a few slices of their cake options: strawberry shortcake, mango tres leches (not the traditional version), tiramisu, and carrot cake. My favorite was the carrot cake—it had the perfect balance of moisture and sweetness, and you could tell they used fresh ingredients. I hope my next visit isn’t as busy so I can explore all the options and try more!“

“Ice cream flavors always made according to your request, taste fresh and the girl that served my daughter was very friendly , she even shared her some kpop souvenirs , did not expect that .Way to go ?, I keep coming back to see what more new flavors they have ?“

“This place is under new management and it's most definitely showing, ordered a pick up for me and my boys and they were all the same size despite upgrading a couple upon ordering. The manager Queenie gave me a call and made things right without hesitation, she's great. Best cold stone on the peninsula without a doubt. Thank you again for your integrity Queenie, Very cool!“

“One of my fondest memories is coming here circa 2017 on a chilly day and eating ice cream while walking along Haight Street. I think it’s when the PB and cookies first came out. So good! Recommend the brand and this specific location, for their progressive values and hardcore nostalgia of Haight Street.
