I stumbled on this bakery looking for a place to make cupcakes on short notice. The service was awesome, staff was accommodating, and the cupcakes were a hit. I will definitely be getting cakes from here again

This is my neighborhood bakery this is how I found this gem. The male owner is always nice. He gives me suggestions and helps me decide what to ultimately pick especially when it comes to the cakes. The mocha cakeā˜•ļøšŸ« is our favorite. These are our top 3 favorite cakes. Their cookies are great too. Me, my husband and our teen daughter find love and comfort enjoying their high quality affordable bakery items. We thank and appreciate you.

Long overdue rave review for Sweet Temptations! My husband and I stop in often for a treat- my favorite is the tiramisu! We have enjoyed their fabulous Tres Leche cake before and more recently, put in an order for a dozen red velvet cupcakes and a dozen strawberry cupcakes, and they were delicious! I'm pretty picky when it comes to red velvet and the cream cheese frosting, and in my humble opinion these were perfect.

Exceeded my expectations on how delicious this cake was from my wedding!!! we did three different layers. The fun, funny cake and buttercream was one of the best cakes I’ve ever had!

I was excited to order a cake from here but was disappointed by the lack of care. The cake tasted fine, but for all the questions in the custom order form on their website it seemed almost none of it was taken in or maybe not even read.

Picked up the cake and they didn’t have a box for the cake. I ordered a very small cake and they insisted on the height be tall because it was necessary for the design (it was not), but then had no box that fit it? Very odd. So it was put in a small cake box with the lid partially open and parchment paper taped to the opening.

I got home and the piping was very messy and had many gaps showing the bare/crumbed layer underneath. Again, I was really excited to get a cake from here but considering I paid $100+ for a small 6 inch cake and the piping looked to be done in 5 minutes, I think I’ll try out some other bakeries next time I need to order a cake for a special occasion.

I ordered a big cake from them for a special occasion and I had a very specific vision in mind. Sweet temptations completely delivered on that vision and everyone was blown away both by the cake flavor and decoration. Yes it can be pricey for a custom cake but it's totally worth it. Also they did delivery and were professional and on time with that as well.

Gansito cupcakes cost 5.50 each. A decent size but very disappointing. Bread was dry and a dollop of jam. The cupcake can’t be marketed as ā€˜Gansito’ because it does not live up to the name… way too overpriced for the minimal enjoyment I had.

I ordered cup cakes for teachers appreciation week and almost all the school staff were asking me about the bakery. Cakes were so pretty and delicious at the same time. I ordered customized cake for my son's birthday and it was more than my expectations. Staff was very nice and it overall coasted me reasonable. Thanks for adding happiness to my occasions so beautifully.

Got my sister a custom cake from here for her first big job.
It took a big to get my order through since I submitted a request from the website. They were very kind though and customer service was great. The cake is decorated beautifully and I couldn’t be more happy with it.
