I ordered a 10” chocolate cake with chocolate pudding filling for my son’s 3rd birthday party. Not only that it came out looking amazing, it also tasted so good. It was a hit!

Thank you so much for getting it done even though it was so last minute!

The cake was absolutely delicious. The consultation was done over the phone and they nailed it. The frosting was not too sweet, The cake was moist and light. The merengue cookies and macaroons ontop were just as good. 10/10 presentation 10/10 taste

We could not have been more impressed with our wedding cake! We chose the 3 tier strawberry shortcake and had an additional sheet cake of red velvet. In addition to making my EXACT dream cake I had envisioned, it was DELICIOUS. Every piece was eaten (some even took 3rds!) and received countless compliments on how light and fresh the cake was. We will be returning!

This place was amazing. The cupcakes were delicious and they saved my daughter's 1 year old birthday!

Worst cupcakes ever
Oreo is disappointing
so is red velvet and cheese cake flavor cupcakes
they're unsweet and bland taste
grocery store cupcakes would taste better

The cupcakes were great and the icing was so light and creamy. They were also very flexible with our crazy schedule!

Came here to find vegan cupcakes for a friend but you have to ORDER AHEAD. There are no vegan cupcakes at the place to buy from. The regular cupcakes where good but not what I was looking for.

I ordered my sons birthday cake and cupcakes last minute from cupCAKES a La Yola and they still nailed it! VEGAN red velvet and VEGAN vanilla with fresh strawberry cake! They did a great design and were very friendly. Made the process of ordering over the phone easy and pleasant. Highly recommend!

They made a 2-tiered wedding cake on short notice for me for a friend's wedding and did a wonderful job. Cake was visually perfect, just like we asked, and really good frosting and cake. Overall very happy and the red velvet cake was the best red velvet I have ever had. Thank you so much!

Cupcakes look amazing. Taste isn't the best. I didn't even finish mine because it wasn't worth the calories. Super dry and stale tasting. I had two different ones and they were both not great. I had chocolate pudding, the chocolate pudding inside made it taste raw. I also had smores, the marshmellow whipped cream was ok. They taste like they are vegan or gluten-free, if you don't choose to eat this way then your food shouldn't taste like it is. Mediocre at best.

This place is pretty neat. They sell cupcakes, cakes and a bunch of other goodies.
I intended to only buy cupcakes here, but I ended up buying banana pudding as well.

Small, overpriced, and stale cupcakes. All my mom wanted for her birthday was a decent vanilla cupcake, she said it was the worst she ever had. The pictures on the website made them look deceptively bigger or I would have never spent 20 bucks on five tiny cupcakes. The lemon coconut was good but still too small to give a good review.

I've never heard of this Bakery but decided to give it a try. The Vanilla cupcake was dry. The Chocolate Chip was just ok. I really enjoyed their red velvet cupcake. It was very moist and not too sweet. So I decided to give it another try a few days later. I'm giving this place 2 stars due to the handling of my cupcakes on my second visit. I was very disappointed to learn that the young lady went straight from doing work on the ipad and handling some papers to picking up my cupcakes without washing her hands or putting on some gloves. I just don't understand how washing your hands isn't a standard practice for one, but now we're in a pandemic with covid and you're deciding it's better to just go straight to serving someone without proper preparation for handling after doing paperwork and touching Electronics.

I've heard so much about this place, but it was not as great as expected. I had the red velvet cheesecake which the employee recommended over the cupcake. It was decent i guess. I guess i should of stuck to plain red velvet cupcake. I also tried the banana pudding which was good but not amazing as everyone says.eh 3 stars. SO hard to find parking and a bit pricey!

Five stars go to their banana pudding.it was the best banana pudding I have ever had. I tried their cupcakes and they were just ok not worth going back.

I initially wanted to get cupcakes here because someone brought in a dozen to my work and they tasted delicious. These cupcakes are moist and have great and unique flavors. The reason why I'm only giving 3 stars is because the price. If you are on a budget, really consider your choice on buying from here. But if budget isn't an issue by all means go here! Great cupcakes, just pricy.
