NOW THIS PLACE IS A SURPRISE. Moist and delicious is all that needs to be said. No samples which is a bummer, but that’s OK. When you have a good product and you know it, how can a person complain. Great customer service as well. I will make that trip again.

[Review] Cupcake cravings during pregnancy
- Los Angeles, CA -
via Yelp
I’m on the hunt for the best cupcake place in Orange County since I developed a cupcake craving during pregnancy that has yet to go away. I have a clear favorite, but it’s way too far to drive to on a whim. Therefore I started searching closer to home and found Patty’s Cakes. On a lazy afternoon, I headed over, and I was completely thrown off by the location. It’s in a strip mall in an industrial part of town, and it’s randomly on the side of everything next to a dry cleaners. Admittedly, I waited in the car with the baby to decide if I really wanted a cupcake. I decided I really did. Upon entering, I was greeted by a very nice lady but surprisingly no cupcakes. Turns out you order off a menu and they are essentially frosted to order. This was a neat idea, so I bought 4. I just ate the salted caramel cupcake and OH MY GOD it was AMAZING! I was hesitant because the frosting is NOT buttercream and I rarely like no -buttercream frosting. What I got instead was a chocolate fudge/mousse-like frosting and plenty of it with salted caramel melted on top. Delicious! The cake was moist and super soft (not dense) which I loved. I will now be recommending this place to all my mommy friends (who seem to share a similar craving). The only reason why I didn’t give five stars is for the odd location. Otherwise, I recommend this place hands down. Yum.
[Review] Mini cupcakes were a huge hit!!!
- Orange, CA -

We were looking for mini cupcakes for our wedding reception and tried many other competitors in the area, but none were as amazing as Patty’s Cakes.The cupcakes were a big hit and everyone raved about them. My favorite is the salted caramel, but all were equally good. I will definitely be ordering these again for our housewarming party.
[Review] Desperation cake!!!
- Fullerton, CA -
via Yelp
I went to Patty’s Cakes in a bit of desperation for my April wedding- My fiance had asked a friend of his (who to be fair had done a few wedding cakes before) to do our cake, and she agreed…then totally flaked. She was even going out of state the day of our wedding and didn’t tell us! So with less than three weeks to go I just called up the cake place I had seen coming home from work sometimes, knowing nothing about it and fully aware that they may not be able to take us anyway. Thank God, the stars were aligned. Not only were they able to fit us in and schedule a tasting straight away, but then I was able to see all the great reviews- and they really do equal them. I was surprised at first to find out they were a fondant-free bakery (you just kind of assume that a wedding cake is going to have that fondant look) but Patty told us that while fondant may give a nice look, it doesn’t have a good taste and often leads to the cake inside becoming stale. You sacrifice taste for looks, and at Patty’s, taste is a priority. Well I had no problems with that argument, and two weeks later she delivered our stunning raspberry and custard cake to the venue, complete with real purple hydrangeas we had supplied as decoration. It had turned out even better than I thought it would, and after all of the stress leading up to it, it was so *so* nice to get such a lovely product. It really did taste amazing too, and I would certainly recommend them.
[Review] 71st Birthday cake!!!
- Yorba Linda, CA -
via Yelp
My client had his 71st first birthday coming up and I had NO idea what to get him until my mother-in-law suggested a treat of some kind. I typed “treat, Fullerton” into Google and up came Patty’s Cakes.
I went to their beautiful website and learned that it’s best that you call ahead for more than six cupcakes in an order, so I did.
The lady that answered that phone was very nice and said she’s have my 18 cupcake order ready within the hour. When I arrived I explained to the lady (turns out it was Patty herself – talk about service!) behind the counter that I was worried that showing up with 18 cupcakes might be weird. The bakers box was probably the same size as and the six cupcakes would be rolling around and look cheezy; There are exactly 9 people that work in my clients office and I didn’t want anyone to feel left out. She explained that they had a different sized box that had a cardboard insert in it, she showed it to me and the cupcakes looked like they were on a little stage!
The cupcakes were just gorgeous little delights, so I ordered an extra one for my mother-in-law and my husband too! Another lady came out when a customer came in and asked me if I wanted a ribbon on the box (at no extra charge – UNHEARD of!!) she put a cupcake themed ribbon on the big box and a dark blue ribbon on the 6 pack. As she was wrapping the smaller box she said she would bring it out when she finished as I loaded the other in my car. I was too fast and when I got back in I heard the other customer say that it was their first time. I looked at Patty and the other lady and explained that it was my first time too. They were surprised as I called in the order and seemed like I had been there before. (I am pretty shy and they both made me feel so comfortable and welcome I felt like I had been there before too!) Patty’s assistant took both my hands in her’s and looked me in the eye as she said “Welcome and thank you for choosing us to be a part of this special celebration”.
I can’t rave enough about this place and how much everyone LOVED the cupcakes. My client said he had never had better!
Thank you Patty, for making me look good and giving my client a taste of just how important he is to me!
I will be back because I never did get a cupcake for myself, too many choices!

The cupcake i had was super yummy and moist
[Review] Decorations are very nice and price is average!
- Santa Ana, CA -

My husband researched and found Patty’s cakes. He got 20 cupcakes of variety flavors for my birthday. The decorations are very nice and price is average, not pricey. All their cupcakes have cream/frosty in the middle of the cupcake. I think this is their specialty. Their cream/frosty is definitely different from other places and worth a try. It’s not sweet and very creamy. My favorites have to be the lemon and banana. Red velvet is decent as well. There is a cupcake with bacon on top of the frosty. I wish I had a chance to try it but my friend that ate that one said it had a taste of banana with bacon on top. I would definitely come back and recommend this place.
[Review] Devil’s food cake!
- Los Angeles, CA -
via Yelp
I was making a wedding cake for my nephew and now niece, but as I live in LA and the wedding was in Anaheim, I needed “backup” – that is, two half-sheet cakes to make up for what I had no room in my home refrigerators or the venue.
I went to Patty’s about 5 weeks before the wedding, and Bethany could not have been nicer or more helpful. She understood exactly what I needed and was extremely professional and kind about ordering the cakes to my exact specifications (devil’s food cake, chocolate mousse and raspberry jam filling, and white mousse icing with no decoration and just beading on the edges). Their prices are very fair, they deliver for a modest fee (and deliver promptly as promised), and they are altogether the best and most professional bakery I’ve worked with in a long time – in or out of Orange County.
Oh yeah – the cakes were delicious too (in fact, I’m sort sorry I didn’t just let them make the entire cake – would have been much easier on me!). Patty’s is a gem, and a must for anyone looking for a great celebration cake. Thanks so much to Patty’s and their great staff!
[Review] Buy one get one free!
- Fullerton, CA -

Went in here today before work, as they were having a buy one get one free cake ball sale. I ended up getting almost every flavor of cake ball, and also 5 cupcakes!! I gave some to a few co-workers and they all said they were great.
I think my favorite is the red velvet cake ball, definitely worth trying!
I gave my mom, who is one of the pickiest eaters, the banana cupcake and she said it was the best cupcake she has ever had! And ate the whole thing!
Thank you Patty’s cakes! I will definitely be coming back.
Oh and also, the two ladies working in the front were very friendly and helpful.
[Review] All I can say is wow!!!
- Irvine, CA -

Wow!
Is probably the best word to describe the flavor and service we received from Patty and Phillip! We decided to go Patty’s Cake & Desserts for our wedding cake!
I scheduled a meeting with Phillip, but unfortunately the timing was off. One Saturday on a whim I called again to see the availability for a meeting & tasting. Philip had nothing available and said he would call me if there was any cancellations that he could squeeze us in. (At this point I was getting nervous as our wedding day was fast approaching.) luckily Phillip called me back a day later with an opening that worked with our schedule. My fiancé(now husband) and I went to our appointment and was greeted immediately by Patty. She got straight to it, asking me details about my wedding. We started discussing design, size, look, height.. You name it she covered it. When it came time to taste the cakes she did not hold back. She made sure every flavor I considered, I tried. (I’m rather picky and indecisive, but that did not bother her one bit) after figuring it what flavor to with she started sketching out the design of our wedding cake. She definitely is good at what she does. (Both, baking and designing cakes). After finalizing everything we put our deposit and left.
Day of: August 3,2012
To be honest I was not worrying about them! With my other vendors I worried about them being punctual and to set up in the time given. But with Patty and Phillip, I knew I didn’t have to worry about them one bit!(based this off of the great connection I felt I made with them the night I met them). Sure enough Phillip delivered our cake ahead of schedule. I was extremely happy he was punctual considering their shop is in Fullerton and my wedding was in Laguna Beach in August! (Everyone knows that Laguna Beach in August is dead lock due to the sawdust festival) Phillip set up our cake and made sure the cake looked its best!
I could not have asked for better service from Patty, Phillip and the rest of the staff there! I felt extremely comfortable working with them! They played a huge role in making my wedding as special as it was! Since our wedding we have had patty do more cakes for us and still experienced the same level of service! If you’re looking for a vendor that’s prompt, honest, and genuine on top of having amazing cakes, Patty’s Cakes & Desserts is the place to go! They will NOT disappoint!
