I very seldom put reviews for a business until after I have tried their products. However, 1914 truly has the kindest staff and owners. I spoke to both Mark and Lorie who have been above and beyond accommodating. They have some stellar reviews and I can certainly see why.

I searched high and low for a gelato cart for my wedding in Temecula and I'm so happy I stumbled upon Gruttadauria's 1914 Bakery! All of my guests said that the gelato was delicious and hit the spot. We also catered tiramisu cups and cannolis and there wasn't one left at the end of the night! If you're looking for a bakery for your wedding or any event, I highly recommend them!

Enjoyed having gelato truck at a friend's wedding last night. You guys were incredible. The gelato was some of the best I have ever had (I am an expert) and the service was excellent. Only potential issue / room for improvement (1) not having enough servers/scoopers when rush of people happened, though that was only an issue for like 5-10 minutes and (2) not having a tip jar for the excellent server. Great selection, great flavor, great service.

1914 catered dessert for our wedding in Temecula, July 2023. We couldn't have asked for a better experience!From the beginning, Linda and team were responsive and super helpful. Linda walked us through all of their amazing options during our tasting appointment, and guided us in choosing our pastries. I called/emailed them multiple times before the wedding to ask questions and make adjustments... each time, the team at 1914 was professional and gave us what we needed.Day-of delivery was seamless; the desserts were on the tables and in our guests' mouths before we knew it! In addition, when there was a miscommunication and we weren't able to freeze our wedding cake, 1914 worked with our venue to get us a replacement cake within hours.Overall, 10/10 recommend.

We worked with 1914 Bakery as part of our wedding package with Wedgewood Weddings at Bel Vino Winery. Our cake came out beautiful and tasted amazing. Months later our friends and family are talking about how delicious the cannolis, mini Oreo cheesecakes, and lemon pastries.

We are a Italian family from San Pedro, CA. My son was getting married at Callaway Winery inTemecula. My son and daughter in law really wanted Italian pastries at there wedding and not knowing the area we had no clue for bakeries that made Italian pastries. I did some research and discovered Gruttadauria's-1914 bakery. After reviewing reviews and photos I was amazed with there pastry displays. I will say that photos do not show justice on how amazing they taste. The cannoli's are so good it reminded me when I was in Palermo Italy. Not to mention all the other pastries were amazing as well. Mark and Linda were amazing to work with, since living out of the area they made it very easy to coordinate our event. I would give them 10 stars if I could. Thank you Mark and Linda for the beautiful pastry bar that gave us so many compliments from our guests.

Had our wedding cake tasting appointment this morning and Linda was so helpful and lovely. We had a lot of cakes to taste and gelato and sorbet and pastries! Everything we tried was fantastic, it was so hard to choose just 3 cake flavors!! Truly appreciated all of Linda's help, experience and knowledge of the wedding industry. She made our hour long appointment so easy and fun and packaged all of our treats that we couldn't finish so that we could bring home with us.Really looking forward to our wedding so we can eat the delicious treats and can see their cute wooden pastry displays that we are renting for our event in action!! Thanks so much to y'all over there working hard to get us great desserts!!

This bakery came with our venue package & I am so so glad it did because WOW. First, the cakes are so so good. We did a tasting a couple months before our wedding and everything was so good. Second, the owners are amazing and so nice! I spoke to Linda a couple times regarding our cake and what we wanted. It was very simple. We got a white cake w/ their raspberry filling & buttercream and we got it Naked style with no design, decor or florals. We were having a very rustic country style wedding so everything for the most part was a little more simple. My husband and I bought a cake topper for the cake and it was PERFECT! (The bakery put our topper on for us at the venue). We told Linda what we wanted just a few weeks before the wedding and she was on it & so sweet. All of our guests loved the cake! I would definitely recommend this bakery to anyone needing a cake for any event or celebration.
If you're looking for a fun dessert for your wedding or any other event, look no further. We booked the 3-flavor gelato cart for our 5/20/23 wedding. The gelato was a MASSIVE hit with our guests. The cart arrived on time, and everything tasted just as great as when we tasted samples in August 2022. Linda was an amazing person to work with, and she made our wedding day all the more special. Linda, if you're reading this, thank you so much!

Incredible & A+ service! The overall experience was one to be added on our must have list. Our wedding cake & desserts from 1914 were exceptional in presentation, taste and and all-around best of the best. We knew from the moment we met Michael for the tasting, the experience would be next to none! Bravo! Lavoro ben fatto.

Beautiful cake for my dad's 70th and it tasted great

We had our 50th anniversary cake and pastries from them. Our guests and family bragged about them months after. Be sure to save some for yourselves. It goes very fast once your guests tasted them. My grandson wouldn't leave the desert table
