We couldn't even cut open the cake, it was so mushy and just difficult to slice and it just crumbled everywhere. Not impressed with the quality of the cake I should be able to smoothly cut a slice. Wouldn't recommend. Look at the cake when trying to cut through it.

The first time I visited the treats I purchased were not that fresh. Second time, the male who helped me put my cupcake in a box and didn't have anything to support and it was a mess taking with me. I haven't had the best experience yet. third time hopefully.

Torrance Bakery has been our go-to for many years, and it is always beautiful and delicious! Their cakes are always moist and fresh and beautifully decorated. My fave is their banana cake with fresh banana and custard filling!

My wife found this gem not too long ago. And I am so angry that WE HAVE NOT TRIED THIS PLACE BEFORE! Not only their cupcakes are so adorable and delicious but also their sandwiches are AMAZING! I definitely recommend the sandwich called "Stephanie" (one of photos I uploaded). Perfect combination of everything inside and perfectly grilled bread! Apparently the place is about to be 40 years old in 2024.
So obviously the place is pretty crowded and hard to get a table. But be patient and you can find one! This one family who took the table that we left circled the block 10 times! Oh btw, outside seating is so pretty and comfy. It's also very quiet even when the place is super busy! Workers there are incredibly friendly. Almost family-like! This one guy who was going back and forth of kitchen and curbside delivery was not hesitant to play with my 3 year old son to make his day :) Truly wonderful place, amazing food, and grateful people!
