“The Veruca salt cake is totally worth $61.50 (for 8" as of March 2024). It's described as "devil's food cake paired with salted caramel buttercream, pretzel crunch and Valrhona Caramelia crunchy pearls". The cake was well balanced, not too sweet, and had really great texture. This is a cake that I definitely cannot make myself at home at my current skill level. It was too perfect! I really appreciated the neat hand writing. You are allowed three words... generally it's "Happy Birthday (Name)". The baker wrote it much neater than I can do with a pencil or pen. Well done! It's controversial, but I wasn't a huge fan of an automatic gratuity of 15 percent and being asked twice to tip online, especially before receiving the cake or experiencing the service. It can be manually adjusted whatever value you prefer, but I rather the employee's wages be fairly baked into the price - just personal preference. We bought some day-old cookies for a discounted price. No regrets there! We enjoyed every bit of it! No vegan options (currently) for those who live that life style - sorry! If you want the cake, you must order in advance. I ordered the day before. Just do it! You'll love it!“

“Cute lil spot with the best Tres Leches Cakes. Address needs to be updated on google…only location is on Henderson but worth the travel. Quaint and has little things to buy. Loved this spot“

“It is a huge panderia. You can get everything here. We got a mix of pan dulce, Bolillo rolls, jalapeno and ham pastry, tamales, and a drink. The tortillas are made fresh. Everything is so tasty. The staff is friendly. The cakes look amazing.Update: my son wanted conchas from El Bolillo for his birthday, and they produced gorgeous colorful blue and green conchas for his birthday. We also picked up Earth day donuts and cookies. Everyone was excited to eat and celebrate my son's birthday and Earth Day. Thank you, El Bolillo!!!!“

“My sister and I stopped by Jeannie's Cakes after being offered a sample from the owner. He was so engaging and shared a heartfelt story about the namesake, Grandmother Jeannie. You can tell that he loves what he does and it certainly shows through his hospitality and delicious desserts. I recommend anyone stop by, you're in for a treat!“

“Gorgeous in flavor and in appearance! Perfect ❤️“

“Before and After. This is long time coming. I truly enjoy my experience with Bianca. I sent her TikTok of my idea and she nailed it completely. I order my little cousin bday cake back in Nov and never saw a kid so happy with his cake. The cake was really tasty and frosting was to die for. Everyone enjoy they cake adults and kids to. It was perfect and Bianca truly works for you!“

“Bavarian Cakery was fantastic! The lemon cake was divine and she did a fantastic job on a chocolate groom’s cake displaying all my husband’s favorite teams. Tara was amazing to work with, understood our vision for both cakes, and delivered them to perfection. Tara was also an extremely calming presence and so organized. It made us feel so comfortable! We’d highly recommend Bavarian Cakery and will be using her for parties and other occasions in the future.“

“It’s our fave bakery!.. I love their bread and Cakes❤️❤️“

“Immediately when I asked my Houston friends what bakery to visit, they all said Six Ping. Truly a mom and pop shop, an elder woman ( I assume the owner) greeted me when I walked in in Mandarin. Some regulars definitely loyal to the shop. Clean, affordable, large selection and most importantly...DELICIOUS. Soft buttery bread on each bite and they don't skimp on the topping or fillings. Lost a star because the cashier was so incredibly rude when my card had to be run again, and yelled at me in Mandarin and then asked if my card was even real? Will always continue to support local, but rude service isn't necessary.“
