Cakes and Stuff

I found a bakery close to my house for my sisters birthday party. The cake I ordered was red velvet fondant cake with cream cheese filling. The fondant was all white very simple.
The lady there was very helpful and actually took me in a little after six when they were already closed to order the cake. I order the cake about 4 days in advance, some place wouldn’t do such a short noticed but I’m glad they did. I left a deposit.
The cake was so beautiful and it tasted delicious. I got a lot of compliments on the taste and look of the cake. It wasn’t too sweet and the bread was moist, I liked it!
I order the cake very plane with no design because I put a little touch on the cake, my mom and I made red fabric flowers to add to the top of the cake. See pictures.
I did get yelled at a bit by the lady because she told me the cake was going to be ready by 9am Saturday and I ended up picking it up by 2:30pm. I did phoned them to tell them I was going to pick it up later. When I got there she told me that she needed space for other cakes and that they woke up early to make it. I thought it was kind of funny but I understood and didn’t take it the wrong way. Great couple though, the husband help me take the cake to my car too.
I’m a fan of this place and so is my sister. I’m definitely ordering all my cakes from here.

I never write reviews because I understand that everyone has an off day and I hate being negative.
But the cake we picked up from this bakery was literally thrown together!
The cake was a simple 6″ and 9″ stacked solid black with a tie wrapped around it.
It was tilting, it was cracking and patched all over from attempted repairs. I told them I wasn’t happy with the look of the cake and hoped it taste better then it looked. Instead of apologizing or trying to find a resolution they just told me I had to find another bakery next time. Absolutely RUDE
I would have refused this cake if I had not already given them half the money for it.
We cut into this cake and it was soo dry, and had no support for the top cake hence why it was sagging lower and lower as it sat.
Do not go here unless you want to be treated like it was ur fault there cakes are dry, falling apart, and the reason why there rude.

Rum balls were very rich & delicious — mini eclairs were good but a bit to sweet for me. Although I’ve read reviews about a bad attitude from older lady running the bakery — I was treated well and even given free samples. It’s amazing what a smile and kind word can do! Overall very happy with my first visit!

By far my favorite bakery! They are so sweet the prices are great an they gave me a sample of every flavor they carried since they are European flavors. (The Marilyn Monroe cake in photos) you have to take a photo right next door so they can print it on rice paper for $ 13 and they will add it to your cake at the bakery! Loved loved this place (:

The eclairs were pretty good, but the service was horrible. The lady was so rude to us. She looked annoyed by our presence.
There wasn’t much of a selection either.
Not returning. Probably would have if the lady was decent to her customers.

Okay… so all of their stuff are delicious, but they have one flaw… RUDE TO THE MAX!!! the two times I’ve gone to order a cake… the lady was rude both times. Wanted to give it another try because their cakes and desserts are fabulous. Maybe because I am not Romanian??? She told me to come back during the week because she was too busy to take my order. HORRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE. She didn’t even say she needed to step away and walked to the back of the bakery… I walked out. IGNORANT! Well… I’d love to give her a 5-​star rating, but with this horrible customer, just can’t.

RUM BALLS!
Their rum balls are exceptionally delicious. I’ve tried other items too, but I always get the rum balls. For 50 cents a pop (and they are a generous size) you can’t really beat it.
My boyfriend likes the rum balls so much, I had the woman make him a GIANT rum ball birthday cake. She definitely delivered on what I asked for. I didn’t bring any pictures or anything. I just told her what I wanted and it was exactly what I expected.
Some other reviewers mention that she is rude. I have to admit, I too was put off by her attitude when I first went. But, the rum balls… they kept calling me back.
I think maybe she read some of those bad reviews because I think her attitude has greatly improved and she’s more friendly now. She even gave me two free eclairs to try! (They were delicious! and I normally hate eclairs)
Yummy things I’ve had:
Rum Balls (with nuts, coconut, chocolate)
Eclairs (the cream filling was really good)
little jam cookies in a box (super good and great when you have guests)

This place is great, they make very delicious pastries. We order from here every year before Easter and Christmas. They make a very traditional Romanian marble cake with walnuts and other goodies, definitely a must on my shopping list if I am in the mood for something sweet.

I came here 3 weeks ago to get a general price quote for a wedding cake. I came with a picture of how I wanted it to look like and the lady was soo rude !!! It was very simple nothing fancy and she kept telling me to hold on and she would leave and help another customer or go to the back … What should have only taken 5 mins tops took about 20 … With me waiting most of it. So i asked her husband a few questions and he kept saying «i dont know «and he would ask her in their language and I heard her say in English «this is why I don’t do consultations on Saturday» When I finally got a price out of her it was cheap but it’s not enough to make me want to go back !! she apparently didn’t want my business !!

What a cute little bakery! I came here to get some eclairs for a co-​workers birthday and they were incredible and so cheap! I love how the filling isn’t too sweet and they’re just the perfect size to just pop in your mouth. The place is small but the service was excellent. A very sweet Romanian lady helped me and even gave me a sample. They have a lot of European desserts on their menu, but everything is made to order, so you won’t find a cake just available on the counter like other bakeries, but they do have a variety of pastries to choose from. Can’t wait to try more of there delicious sweets! Definitely will be back for more.

We ordered a spiderman cake for my son’s 4^th birthday we gave them an example of how we wanted it, the cake was supposed to be red with blue spider webs and guess what? They did make the cake the same but instead of the red color it looked like pink color not red! I was very upset because of the color. The cake was good so that’s why I was going to give them another chance. Next cake would be a baby shower if they didn’t do it right we would never be going to go there anymore.
Baby shower cake $ 100
They got most of the cake right but once again they didn’t get the colors correct. The cake on top was supposed to be mostly beige with a couple white stripes, they did the opposite. When my husband brought it up the lady mentioned that it was stupid and that they would never do a cake for us again. I gave one star because her attitude she was rude!

This bakery is definitely worth to try! Their Europian chocolate cake was so good! Not too sweet at all, which I like in a cake. I posted the photo of the cake I ordered which was the transformer’s cake=D.
Their mini eclairs are also delish! Their prices are very reasonable too.

This bakery is amazing… we ordered a baby shower cake with the shape of the baby’s butt covered by a blanket with little legs and feet sticking out. They did it perfectly and the cake was very tasty. There was a little miscommunication on the time the cake was suppose to be ready and they offered to deliver it to Fountain Valley but since my neighbor was headed to the baby shower later, she picked up for us. The owner was so sweet to sent a box of her tastee sweets as an offering for the miscommunication. I will definitely use them again and just this morning recommended a couple for their wedding cake!

I went there to order a birthday cake for my daughter. I used to order from JJ Bakery either in Rowland Heights or Hacienda Heights, but they make it seem like THEY are doing US a favor by making a cake. We try to explain something or order something a little different from what they offer (no fruit on the cake) and they make a face like we’re stupid. So anyway, I decided to come and order a cake here even though I had never tried any of their stuff. We made sure they had the design we wanted and then started to make the order. I asked the owner’s husband and he wasn’t sure so he asked his wife (the owner). She suggested that we try their Almondine (sp) and proceded to give us a slive to try. The cake was delicious! I couldn’t believe they gave it to us for free. The husband also gave my daughters a mini éclair each and a cookie. I haven’t received the cake because the party is this coming Sunday so if anything changes, I’ll come change my rating.
The reason why I gave it 4 stars instead of 5, is because the owner never smiles and it makes me a little uncomfortable. She seems to be in a bad mood all the time. The husband is very pleasant, smiley, and even laughs. She doesn’t crack a smile at ALL.

I just ordered 5 dozen of the mini eclairs from them for a party. Not only did they drizzle them with the color theme but they were so fresh and tasty! I wish the red drizzle they put on wasn’t a gel consistency.. .but considering they never drizzle icing on the eclairs I will give them a pass.
It is a perfect little bakery with friendly staff. Don’t let the run down strip mall scare you! You need to check this place out!

It was the 11^th hour and I needed a graduation cake. We are from San Francisco and we were looking for a cake in Southern California, so we didn’t know where to go. We drove around trying to see what we could find. Problem was, everyone was booked! So were the people at Cake N’ Stuff, but we begged and pleaded and the nice owner lady agreed to bake us a half sheet cake. We needed it simple, white cake, vanilla butter cream. We picked out a graduation design and placed the order.
The next morning we had this beautiful cake with a hand made fondant graduation cap and stars. We were a bit worried because when you walk into Cake N’ Stuff, it looks like a hole in the wall. But that’s where the best stuff comes from right?! Right!
We kept our fingers crossed as the cake was presented, cut and passed out. It was absolutely perfect! Super soft and moist, but not sickly sweet. Everyone loved it! We were so happy that we found this place. Great cake and a friendly owner.

This bakery makes the best cakes at a reasonable price! They are so helpful and accommodating. Bring in a picture of almost any cake and they’ll try to make it. They don’t make «fancy» cakes (cakes with fondant), but they do an amazing job with cream!

Once again one star. We decided to give this place another try and guess what i found in my Dobosh cake: hair. AGAIN. People cover your head when you cook/​bake because no one wants that on their plates. Never again.

Cakes and Stuff is a small little strip-​mall bakery that should not be underestimated. It’s easily missed — unless you happen to frequent the Goodwill Store next door — yet in reality Cakes and Stuff is centrally located not far from Imperial Blvd. on the corner of Beach Blvd. and La Habra Blvd. — directly across from Costco in La Habra.
I hit every bakery I could find in search of a wedding cake that would beat the pre-​frozen variety offered at a number of grocery stores. I expected to find a better tasting cake in a «real bakery» but what I didn’t expect was to find a much more competitive price. That was an especially nice feeling because I’m all for supporting «mom & pop» businesses.
Not only were wedding cake prices more competitive, but the cakes from this shop vastly more fresh and original in comparison to the usual grocery or bakery faire. To die for: The bavarian cream — super fluffy and not too sweet! Equally pleasant: There was no double-​talk about price per slice multiplied by the serving numbers, at which point — if you’re lucky at another bakery — you end up with something resembling an actual price.
At Cakes and Stuff, we asked for and were given both prices and samples right on the spot. There was no «Come back on Friday when our baker is in» — aka «When it’s fresh because today it is stale». And because Cakes and Stuff was on the tail end of a long and fruitless search for a wedding cake, we also fully expected to hear: «Come back on Monday when our manager is in.» Boy were we in for a shock when the manager — or rather the owner — turned out to be the very person who was helping us!
Maria, the owner, does what any good baker really ought to: Keeps her shelves stocked with pastries and cakes fresh enough to serve on the spot — and that’s what ultimately tipped us off to the fact that we were in good hands. Fortunately, the good fortune did not stop there. At your standard grocery store and even many of your independent cake bakeries, wedding cakes come in 2.5 flavors: Classic vanilla. Straight chocolate, and a ⁵⁰⁄₅₀ mix of the two called Marble. If none of those flavors constitute your dream cake, and you are hankering for something more exotic, expect to hear a flat-​out «No» or brace yourself for a hefty up charge.
At Cakes and Stuff, not only did I receive a beautiful custom-​decorated wedding cake exactly to my specifications — right down to the ribbon color around the base of the cake to the spacing between each tier — but delivery fees were much more competitively priced, and Maria had no problem customizing the cake itself to our liking. (We opted for European Chocolate and Tiramasu — downright exotic compared to anything else we had considered.)
The cake was not only delivered on time but Maria added the cake topper just like we asked. We enjoyed our fall-​theme wedding thanks, in no small part, to Maria’s efforts.
And did I mention, she’s really friendly, too?
Cakes and Stuff is one of those hidden little gems you just shouldn’t miss, especially those of you who are on a tight budget and who don’t appreciate the nickel-​and-​dime tactics of other wedding cake bakeries. We literally found Maria’s shop in the telephone book — yes, those big yellow PRINT books still exist. We walked in and walked out with a cake order placed, and full confidence that she would deliver.
So what lies ahead? Sampling all the other delicious bakery items in Maria’s shop. Mmm, mmm good!

I like most of the stuff there; sadly the pumpkin treat they have tastes like model plane glue while I was hoping for something closer to the local pumpkin empanada.
The prices seem reasonable for the quality of work and freshness.
I read the other review after I went here; I feel it is too biased though I do respect the trichophobia.
For our town, this place is a major plus.
