I recently had the pleasure of working with Leah at the Little Things Bakery for my wedding, and they surpassed all expectations. Their cake was a delectable masterpiece, combining flavors flawlessly. The attention to detail and artistic flair were remarkable, and the handcrafted decorations matched our theme perfectly. Leah at the Little Things Bakery provided exceptional customer service, making the process stress-free. The delivery and setup were flawless, and the cake became the highlight of our reception. I highly recommend The Little Things Bakery for their talent, commitment, and passion. Thank you for making our day magical!
Our wedding cake turned out beautiful & delicious. At our tasting we couldn't decide between the 3 flavors so we ended up with all of them: lemon cake with raspberry filling, chocolate cake with mousse filling & red velvet with cream cheese filling.
Working with The Little Things Bakery was a breeze - Leah was super helpful over email with what we wanted. The person at the bakery we met with at the tasting (apologies I didn't catch his name!) was also really helpful.
We regret not saving the top of our cake it was so good. We'll be back in a year to get one just for ourselves!
Leah at The Little Things Bakery was very helpful when it came to ordering our wedding cake. She had the best flavor combination recommendations and worked with us to create our dream fiesta-inspired colorful wedding cake. The carrot cake was absolutely delicious and very moist. We highly recommend their desserts and look forward to working with them again in the future!
Looked amazing, tasted even better. I ordered a chocolate cake with mocha mousse filling and dark chocolate buttercream decorated with chocolate shavings and it was the perfect cake. Rich and deep chocolate flavor with a light creamy filling. Somehow so so fluffy! Not overly sweet but also not dense. Exceeded all expectations, so I will definitely be coming back!
I booked their services for my wedding and everything was pretty much great! Guests loved the flavors. My only complaints were that I had asked for piped flowers on my small cake on top. It was plain so I had to improvise. Also, I was expecting a little bit more piping detail in my cupcakes. The greenery surrounding the piped flowers was not enough and there were spots where you could see the baked cake underneath. Other than that the cake was great and staff was kind.
I recently contacted the bakery from out of the area and asked if they might make a gluten free cake for a special birthday being celebrated in Santa Barbara. Not only did the staff provide a great cake decoration theme, but according to the birthday person the chocolate cake with chocolate mousse filling was extraordinary. The staff exchanged lots of emails with me including delivery details and because of this everything came off without a single problem.
Thanks Ari, Leah and the rest of the staff. Hopefully one day I will get to Santa Barbara and be able to visit your bakery in person!
Our wedding cake from The Little Things Bakery was so delicious!! We ordered the smallest size cake just for us to cut and it turned out perfectly. Very easy to work with, fairly priced and so delicious!
The service for after hours delivery is very pricey and they will not give you any grace if you are on the cusp of their after hours. (We have our venue starting at six, their regular service runs until six, but because we are right on the border of their timeframe we have to pay an extra $45.00) It's a very strict policy and they won't budge if you are trying to plan something from out of town and have limited resources to work around their schedule. I was excited about the creative process and working with them at first, but the extra charges were a barrier and they seemed pretty ambivalent that we were struggling to work around them and remain in budget. Deposits are nonrefundable, so do your homework and make sure that your timeframes match up with their availability in order to avoid being stuck and having to pay expensive delivery fees or lose an even pricier deposit. Also, compared to our other vendors, they just didn't seem very interested or excited about our event. We went to the trouble of picking out and mailing them edible decorations that we had specifically envisioned, but they didn't really ask us any questions about how we would like them used, etc. Hopefully the cake is worth it and everything looks and tastes good. But if I had to do it over again, I would have picked up the phone and spoken to someone rather than communicating via email, so that I could get a better handle not only on the costs/fees, but a better feel for the level of commitment to customer service, attitudes, etc. They did mention there are only two people for the bakery, so maybe they are just too overwhelmed and distracted to really give great customer service. I gave the second star because I am optimistic that even though it's not exactly been a pleasure to work with them, the cake and sweets table will turn out to be what we were hoping for.
Lovely little shop with simple yet delicious crowd pleasing cakes.
Went to a birthday party where their cake was served and we all thought it was from Jeannine’s or Lilac’s, and learned for a fraction of the price and less fuss, this little shop in the Mesa shopping mall offered great cake! Two years later went to pick up a last minute cake for a dinner and saw they had some and wrote a message on the cake at no charge and I was on my way in 5 minutes. Great service, unpretentious and I love supporting small businesses that offer good product. Cute party favors, balloons and candles too.
