Found this place by chance. Super great cupcakes. Friendly staff. Presentation is 100% spot on. Will be back. Purchased 2 1/2 dozen full size cupcakes
20/10 omg this place is really beautiful and the food OMG ?it’s delicious.
We were just some tourists walking aimlessly around the streets looking for a bathroom and we thought that this place would have one, unfortunately we were let down BUT my sweet tooth had an unforgettable experience. I don't know if I was just hot but the cookies and cream gelato was fantastic. Thank you to Victoria for the samples and outstanding service!
Super yummy cakes and also amazing staff who are so helpful. I have called so many times with so many questions and every time they are friendly and informative. Manager is awesome!
Im all about energy. Thanks for all the love you put into your crafts and the patience with my children and now elderly mother. THANK YOU !!
Lately, I’ve been going through a sweet tooth craze! While driving around West LA, we drove past Hotcakes Bakes. With my sweet tooth, actually, I should say sweet teeth; hubby and I decided to turn around and check them out.We found a parking spot in the back behind the building and walked around to enter. We were greeted right away, and we immediately looked to see what they had to offer. They have cupcakes, cakes, tarts, brownies, croissants, gelato, coffee, etc. Hubby and I ended up getting some cupcakes (big and mini), a cake roll, and a berry tart. The lady that was helping us was new, and she was very patient with us because we kept adding more and more to our order. When it was time to check out, we wanted to order coffee. As we were about to tell the lady which coffee we wanted, another lady from the back came out and overheard us trying to order coffee, and very rude said, “she’s new, she doesn’t know how to make coffee yet, I do, but there are other people here, you’ll just have to wait.” Instead of clapping back at this lady, I just kindly said, we don’t want the coffee; we’ll go elsewhere for coffee. I felt that her tone was not needed, and we were here first, tell the other people to wait and make our coffee. The new lady could’ve helped the other folks after checking us out. Ugh!Unfortunately, both the cake roll & berry tart were not good. The berry tart tasted old and was super hard. The cake roll tasted funny, wasn’t good. We ended up throwing both of those treats in the trash after one bite. The cupcakes were just eh. The only pretty fantastic tasting was the mango tres leches cupcake. That was fire!!! After our first bite, I made my hubby go back for more of just those. When my hubby came back out, the rude lady told him she could make our coffees now. Girl bye! It’s too late. But yet she made coffee for the people waiting in line behind when we checked out the first time.Even though that mango cupcake was stupid delicious and the shop is super cute, I won’t be coming back. That rude lady ruined it for us. That’s ok, though; there are plenty of other bakeshops around.
If you are going to spoil yourself or a loved one... time to get the really good stuff. Hotcakes put the love and care into it. You can taste it.How else do you tell Grandma that you love her and care!
Will return for breakfast when the weather warms up.
Looks delicious ?
As a cheesecake aficionado I must say the cheesecake cupcakes are legitimate. ?
