Pastries by Nancy

We ordered our wedding cake from here. Our mouthwatering, 3-tiered wedding cake with vanilla, chocolate, and marble tiers with buttercream frosting... mmmmm just thinking about it makes me salivate. And not only that, but the cake looked like a million bucks - so gorgeous and classy. I cannot look or taste another wedding cake again without comparing it (and having it coming up short) to our cake from Pastries by Nancy.

The cake from here was beautiful it also tasted delicious.

We had Pastries by Nancy do our wedding cake for our June wedding, and couldn't have been happier with the results. The cake (red velvet) was absolutely delicious, and everyone kept complimenting it throughout the evening. I still get comments about it! It was beautifully decorated, just what we wanted. I can't wait to use their services for another special occasion. I highly recommend.

We got married at the Los Angeles River Center and Gardens on March 19, 2011. Pastries by Nancy was referred to us by the venue. We went for a tasting and we knew our wedding cake would be beautiful, affordable and best of all, tasty. Pastries by Nancy were approachable, easy to work with, and very reliable. The cake was delicious! Our guests really enjoyed the cake and so did we! We highly recommend Pastries by Nancy for your wedding or event cake. They had beautiful samples at their business in Altadena, CA and their prices are very affordable. You'll get quality cake for a comfortable price. Our cake was absolutely magnificent.

When my now husband and I first went for a cake tasting at another bakery, we had a horrible experience. Because we were in the area, I called up Pastries by Nancy (a preferred vendor of our venue), and asked if we could come in for an impromptu cake tasting. To my surprise, Sean obliged and allowed us to come in.The experience was wonderful! Sean was so nice, and he had everything set up perfectly and explained what everything was and how it should taste. We really wanted to try the carrot cake, but because it isn't a normal wedding cake, they didn't have any available for our tasting. When I told Sean, he said he'd call me later in the week so I could come pick some up. When I came by later in the week, he gave us a whole top tier of a carrot cake FOR FREE! It was excellent! I took it immediately to my now husbands work, and because it was so big, we allowed some of his coworkers to have some. They all loved it, and after tasting it, we knew we had to have it!Sean decorated the cake exactly how we wanted, and it was delivered and set up without any problems. It looked beautiful and tasted even better! It is the best carrot cake I've ever had, and the best part is that they don't only do wedding cakes, so we can order a fresh carrot cake on our anniversary every year after this! I would recommend Pastries by Nancy to all future brides and grooms!

This bakery is really great. We priced alot of places for our wedding cake and were floored by how expensive wedding cakes actually were. Especially when you end up paying per slice. This place was very reasonable in price and the quality cake was really good. I have to admit the lemon with raspberry was really delicious, even though it wasn't my first choice in flavors. From now on this will be the spot to order all my cakes for any special occasion that's coming up. I can't wait to order our anniversary cake!!!

OMG. the best tasting cake that I ever had in my life.......... by far go with the bavarian creme. It was so good even on our video when taking the first bite i stop and say........ DANG THATS A GOOD CAKE........ Then my wife says, my goodness it really is...... as far as the price it was included in our package with caterer but i definitely would have paid top dollar. and it looked stunning........

We loved our cake!! Even though the day of I only had one bite of cake, I knew it was delicious! Our guests went on and on about how good the cake was! When I went cake tasting, I knew right away I had to have the white cake, with barvarian cream filling with fresh strawberries! It was to die for!! Even a few days later ( after it had been frozen) when I got our top cake (to save until 1 year anni) the frosting was still delicious! It is all freshly made there at the bakery! Great quality and your guests will love it!!! I highly recommend this bakery for any cake needs!!

I loved this bakery! Even if this wasn't included with my package for my reception, I would have bought my cake here anyway! The sweet gentleman that helped us (I think he's the owner, but I forgot his name!) set up a cake tasting for us, even after I had to cancel on him the day of before! He was honest with all of his prices that were not included in the package we bought so that there would be no surprise charges the day of our wedding. My husband loved the butter cream frosting and he promised that he would be about to get it almost as smooth as fondant so we trusted him. Our cake was beautiful! It was just as we wanted it and the top layer was saved for us at no charge (two other bakeries wanted to charge us 50 bucks!!) I liked how this place does business in a very friendly and professional way! I got compliments on the cake from guests for weeks after our wedding, and you know it had to be good for someone to remember it and say something! I would highly recommend Pastries by Nancy to anyone!!

The cake turned out beautiful and it was super scrumptious.
We had the white cake with bavarian cream and strawberries, second layer was chocolate with chocolate mousse and bananas, and third layer was marble with bavarian cream and strawberries. The vendor was very easy to deal with.
I highly recommend this bakery.

From the very begining we fell in love with the little shop in Altadena. The cake tasting was a great experience for my husband and I, very friendly and knowlegeable on cakes a flavors that work well together. The cake for our wedding was a vanilla sponge cake with custard cream filling and one layer of added fresh strawberries. It turned out to be the most mouthwatering piece of desert that I have ever had - simple put, the cake was Amazing! We saved the top teir to serve to our close friends and family as we opened our gifts on Sunday, and everyone couldn't get enough. Highly recomended.

My wedding was on September 22, 2007. Pastries by Nancy can make a cake look as smooth as fondant! My cake was beautiful and it was sooooooo yummy! I have gotten so many comments from guests about how good the cake was. I can't wait for a birthday to order a cake. :)

I fell in love with Pastries by Nancy cake when I went to have my tasting. We ordered a two layer white with Bavarian cream and the chocolate with Bavarian cream cake. We had a specific pictures, one found on THEIR website, and brought it too them stating it was the exact cake we wanted, with the colors gold, with a white pattern and black trim. 2 DAYS before the wedding, the owner called and stated he would not be able to make my cake the way I wanted because the black would bleed. I compromised with him and changed to a dark silver. I did specify that I still wanted the majority of my cake gold, which he agreed to do. What kind of vendor calls 2 days before a wedding to change things?

The day of my wedding I was heartbroken. He did not provide me with what I asked for in terms of design. They did not give me the gold cake I requested. After, when I talked with the owner regarding why they chose not to go with what I had requested, his initial response ways, "what do you want me to do about it now". After explaining that he did not provide me with what we requested, he stated he would call me back after talking to his employees. I had to call later to finish dealing with the situation because he did not return my call. In return, he finally reimbursed me half of my design fee...a whopping $15.00.

Although the cake was delicious, I would not recommend this bakery due to the lack of customer service I received. The owner was quite rude and the employees were vague and not very helpful.

I had Pastries By Nancy do my favorite cake for my wedding reception: chocolate cake, chocolate mousse, chocolate ganache. If you're a chocoholic, this is the BEST ever! Day of, it was fresh and tasty just like always. Delivered on time, the design was great. I loved it!
