    Excellent service

    We were admittedly a bit vague on how we wanted our cake designed (neither of us having strong opinions on it). However, Half Baked did an AMAZING job creating a beautiful, elegant cake for our wedding. A terrific cake, along with reasonable prices, a site delivery option (proving very needed day of), and a fun and filling tasting session, make Half Baked a definite recommendation.

    Cait, it was an absolute pleasure baking for your wedding! You and Jose were so easy to work with! We always enjoy bringing the couple's vision to life. Your kind words are much appreciated, and mean the world to us! We look forward to baking for you someday in the near future!

    Best cupcakes

    Delicious cupcakes for me and my girls during our visit dress shopping at Lauren Elaine next door! Seriously a highlight of our trip. If I wasn’t getting married in Texas I would have them do my cake! Amazing!

    Half Baked Co.'s reply:

    Alicia, you are too kind! Your kind words means the world to us, if you were local it would've been an absolute pleasure to make your wedding cake. We hope to meet again, someday. Thank you so much!

    The best wedding cake you'll ever have!

    Our cake was one of the highlights of our wedding, with so many guests coming up to us to say it was the best they'd ever had! For our tasting, Christina and Nina provided us with a dozen mini cupcakes in their cake flavors, which were all genuinely delicious and made our choice very difficult. We ultimately went with the Honey Lavender flavor, which was unique yet delicious, but we had to order a few dozen mini cupcakes in other flavors so our guests could sample them (specifically, we recommend Chocolate Strawberry, Old Fashioned, Golden Vanilla, and Red Velvet but you truly can't go wrong). Christina and Nina were just so wonderful to work with and super responsive throughout the process, and we can’t thank them enough for helping make our day special. In fact, one of us had a birthday recently, so naturally we went back for cupcakes to celebrate!

    Half Baked Co.'s reply:

    Marisa, thank you so very much for the kind words! It was a pleasure baking for your special day. All of our couple's hold a special place in our hearts. The honey lavender flavor, is our personal favorite too, as it is definitely a unique one. All the other flavors are great as well, just as you mentioned. Thank you for trusting and choosing us to bake for your wedding. We hope to see you again sometime soon!

    Sweet thoughts,
    Nina & Christina

    The Best Bakery for a Wedding Cake

    We used Half Baked Co for our wedding cake. We went for a cake tasting and loved all the flavors. Narrowing the options down to our favorites was extremely difficult and decided to do different flavors for each tier (3 tiers). I didn't get to try them all on the day of the wedding (unfortunate but that's just how weddings go for the bride/groom), but the piece we had was amazing. Production level was still the exact same as our tasting! Multiple guests also made a point to tell me how great the cake was. I also want to make sure I mention Nina. She was so helpful and answered all of my many many questions. She made the wedding cake ordering process so much easier for us. We will definitely be purchasing more cakes for special occasions from this bakery.

    Half Baked Co.'s reply:

    Thank you so much for your feedback, Blaire! It was a pleasure baking for your wedding, and attending to all of your needs! Glad to have made the process so simple for you. We hope you stop by soon so we can have the privileges of baking for you again!
    Best,
    Nina & Christina

    Great for people with dietary restrictions

    Great for people with dietary restrictions!! I have a severe nut allergy, but I had no issues working with Half Baked. The cake was delicious, beautiful, and arrived without issue. Plenty of options to choose from too. Highly recommend!!

    Best tasting cake ever!

    We absolutely LOVED our cake from half baked co!!!! Guests were texting us the week after the wedding and asking about the bakery, even guests who came from across the country were asking for when they return. Also, the team was so kind and responsive to our needs. We had such a fun time at our tasting and had such a hard time choosing all their delicious and unique flavors. I also love that they have options for different allergy needs. We can't wait to go back to their cafe at every anniversary.

    Half Baked Co.'s reply:

    Hello Alissa! Thank you for the sweet and kind words! It truly makes us so happy to hear that the cake was enjoyed by both you and your guests! We look forward to baking for you next time around!

    Best,
    Nina

    Beautiful Cake. Great Service

    Half Baked met all of our expectations for quality, service, and delivery. Located in Burbank the store was easy to get to for a tasting. The staff and owner were so nice and accommodating. The cake was beautiful. The delivery on time. No issues with any aspect of the process. The prices for the cakes were competitive with the market. We ultimately picked Half Baked because the quality of the cake and the price beat out another company with similar quality but at a higher price.

    Half Baked Co.'s reply:

    Thank you so much for your feedback, Daniel! It was a pleasure baking for your wedding, we look forward to baking for you again sometime in the near future!

    Nick & Annette's Dream Cake 10.19.19

    The team at Half Baked Co. made us not only feel welcome, but they ensured quality, taste (half the calories that nobody ever new about or tasted)...and they surely delivered. I was magically delighted with my gorgeous Gothic cake...I will always recommend and order from them!

    Half Baked Co.'s reply:

    Thank you, Annette! It was a pleasure working with you and Nick on this awesome cake! We look forward to baking for you two always! - Natalie

    Look no Further

    My wife and I visited several bakeries and did several wedding cake tastings. We had high hopes with the first few bakeries which all ended up falling below our expectations. We then came to Half Baked Co and were blown away. First off, the staff was very nice and pleasant to work with. Then, when the cakes came out for tasting, we were convinced that we found the right place. The cake we ordered was perfect. It was exactly what we wanted. If you are still looking for the perfect wedding cake, look no further.

    Half Baked Co.'s reply:

    Thank you for your review, Francis! You were one of our first "messy swirl" designed cakes, and I'll never forget trying out that new style for your big day! We're so glad we got to bake for you and Alyssa again this week and hope to do so again soon! -Natalie

    Gorgeous and Delicious Wedding Cake

    We had Half Baked Co. make our wedding cake and desserts. The #1 reason we chose them was because their cakes taste amazing. We were hunting for a chocolate cake that’s to die for, and we found one in their Death By Chocolate. Not too sweet and decadently chocolatey. We also had a vanilla and lavender tier of cake that was ALSO amazing. We asked for a 3-tier cake with a bit of a watercolor effect as decoration, and it came out absolutely gorgeous. The planning process was really smooth. Natalie helped us plan the desserts for the right number of people and they were easily able to match the colors of our wedding.

    Along with the wedding cake, we ordered donuts (which were a HUGE hit), cookies and macaroons. Everything was really delicious and beautiful. The cake and desserts were delivered on time on the day of the wedding and we couldn’t be happier with the bakery we chose. Would highly recommend them to anyone looking for cake and/or desserts for their event.

    AMAZING experience from Start to Finish!!!

    We purchased our wedding cake and it was just an amazing experience from the beginning of our initial conversation with Natalie to the cake tasting and day of wedding! The cake was everything we could have expected! Natalie was a true joy to work with as she was very responsive and quick to answer any questions. Would highly recommend to any couple getting married!

    Half Baked Co.'s reply:

    Thank you for the sweet review F&A! It was such a pleasure working with you two. I'm a total orchid gal now after your wedding! We look forward to baking for you as a Mr. & Mrs. :)

    Amazing vegan wedding cake!

    I must say Half Baked is the best place for vegan cakes! They made our wedding cake and it was so delicious! All of our guests commented on how good the cake was! Melissa and Natalie were also so patient in helpful every change of the way!

    Definitely use half baked for all your cake needs!

    Vegan Lavender Honey!! Do I have to say more??

    Half Baked Co. made a show-stopper of a cake for my wedding! I had the most amazing experience with their lovely staff members from our first correspondence via email to the last bite of vegan honey lavender cake my new husband and I savored on our wedding day! They were so accommodating of our preferences for myself and our family, making a vegan and nut-free three tiered wedding cake. Plus, we had something for everyone! The top layer was decadent Death by Chocolate, the middle layer was Honey Lavender, and the bottom was Red Velvet, all of which were delicious (and yes, I made sure my coordinator saved me and my hubby a slice of each)!! And finally, the cake was gorgeous. The brought to life our rustic elegance theme with a naked cake with gold leaf surrounded by beautiful blossoms!

    Half Baked Co.'s reply:

    Thank you for this sweet review, Genevieve! It was a pleasure working with you and Kenneth, and we look forward to baking for you two again this week! :) -Natalie

    This place is amazing! They literally created a cake batter specific to my allergies and it still tasted delicious. I’m so happy I was able to eat cake at my wedding. Super professional and really friendly. A+!!!

    The Best Cake!

    From the friendliest and nicest staff to work with to the most delicious vegan cake—Half Baked tops them all. The tasting and design process was very relaxed without any pressure. They were honest about the size we needed and were open to our changes as they arose. Everything turned out just how we expected and beyond. We even stopped in for cupcakes several months later and they immediately remembered us. Cannot recommend them highly enough!

    Delicious and beautiful desserts

    We are so happy we decided to go with Half Baked for our wedding cake. Natalie was so friendly, knowledgeable, and patient. After having tried so many flavors of cake, we went with carrot cake (my husband doesn't even like carrot cake, but that's how good it was!) They are a bit pricier than some of their competitors, but honestly the cakes are so good and beautiful it was totally worth it. Not to mention that their cakes are healthier than other bakeries. We also ended up adding a bunch of mini cupcakes and platters. They cake was beautiful and so was the cupcake display. Thank you Natalie and thank you half baked for making our special day even more special!

    Most Amazing Cake Designers in all of LA!

    This is our second speciality cake by Half Baked, and they woo us beyond every time. We accidentally discovered them while running an errand and saw their brick and mortar bakery, and it was love at first bite with their cupcakes. And my then boyfriend always returned to get me valentines cupcakes and then my birthday cake, which was beyond impressive, I refused to cut it at my birthday party, it truly was a work of art like nothing I had ever scene before. So we made sure we continued going back to them for treats. And then when it came to our wedding, we knew who to go to! I knew what I wanted and would not waver on getting my dream cake, so we knew they could get the job done! Their creative talent is only surpassed by their delicious cakes. Yes, you have stunning aesthetic in a cake with their creative talent and the most delicious cake ever. Best part is, half the calories but full on flavor! Everyone at our wedding said our cake was the most impressive cake ever. We knew they would give it their all once again. I can not recommend this bakery enough. Not only talented but customer service to the nines! The owner is such a sweetheart, so accommodating.
    This team is a must have from weddings to special events. You will not be disappointed!

    Half Baked Co.'s reply:

    To the happy couple,
    Thank you so much for your very kind words. The whole team will be so happy to read this message! We had such a wonderful time creating your elegant and unique wedding cake. You always come to us with the coolest design ideas. Thank you for allowing us to be a small part of your big day. Congratulations to you both and we hope to help you celebrate many happy occassions in what is sure to be a beautiful future.

    Beautiful cake!

    We hired Half Baked Co. for our December 29th wedding and we're so happy we did! The whole team were always on hand to answer any questions and everything went seamless. We ordered a smaller cake, plus an assortment of cupcakes, donuts, and macarons. Everything was beautiful, delicious and the set up they did was so pretty! Really happy with our choice and would definitely use them again!

    Cannot rave enough about them!

    I'm so thrilled to have found Half Baked Co! I have a variety of food sensitivities that I was worried I wouldn't be able to enjoy my wedding cake! Half Baked Co created a custom batter for me and my husband and we ordered a beautiful petite cutting cake for our reception! Reasonably priced and so delicious! My husband has no food sensitivities and he loved this cake! We are coming back to order birthday cakes, anniversary cakes, etc. Thank you!

    Gorgeous and Delicious Cake/ Desserts!

    Half Baked made us the most beautiful rustic wedding cake! They also made a dessert bar for us all completely gluten free! I have celiac and wanted to be able to enjoy the desserts at the wedding and they were able to accommodate! I will always be so grateful to Half Baked because they came to our rescue less than a week before the wedding! The baker I had booked flaked last minute. Needing a gluten free Wedding cake at the last minute was scary but they put us at ease! They put together a last minute taster for us and were so helpful and gracious! I'm so grateful for this bakery! EVERYONE loved the cake and desserts and no one knew it was GF!

    Amazing Bakery

    Loved this bakery! the staff was always friendly and helpful when we came in. Planning the cake was not even a stress factor when we were planning our wedding. They always responded quickly to my emails. And the detail on our cake was amazing. I'm sure it took them a long time to pipe the crazy design we had chosen. so glad we chose Half Baked.

    Perfect Vegan wedding cake of my dreams!

    Half Baked made our cake and cupcakes for our wedding and we could not be happier! From the moment we walked in to do the tasting we knew this was the right place for us. The flavors they offer are so unique and absolutely delicious, I love that they even offer sugar and gluten free options as well. They nailed the design and were a pleasure to work with.

    Gluten Free Wedding Cake of Our Dreams!

    So I already love Half Baked Co. because they're my local gluten free bakery; and as I and several of our guests are gluten free, they were our top choice going into choosing a cake. Not only were they able to make an entirely gluten free cake, but they also ran with our crazy cake ideas. We were like: we want dragon scales, and they came back with: do you want them to shimmer? Um, yes please! We had other places tell us that what we wanted wasn't possible, but that was never even suggested at Half Baked. The cake tasting was amazing too - we got to pick a lot of combos to try out with mini cupcakes, and we settled on a chocolate/chocolate base, a vanilla/strawberry middle, and a chocolate/salted caramel top. And I mean, it was delicious. Everything I've ever had from Half Baked Co is amazing, but I think they went over and above with our wedding cake. Now I really want to go get some cake...

    Half Baked Co.'s reply:

    Thank you so much for your review Jacqui & Devin! We absolutely LOVE that you wanted us to put dragon scales on your cake, and how could we not make them shimmer?! We look forward to baking more for you in the future - starting with your one year anniversary cake tomorrow!

    the wedding cake was beautiful and it looked just the way I wanted!
    I got the honey lavender as well as lemon and everybody said the honey lavender was bomb!
