Each cake is custom designed to reflect your personal taste and style. No two cakes are ever the same. That being said, the price of your cake will vary depending on the complexity of your design.
Choosing It's All About The Cake as our cupcake vendor was the easiest decision I made in regards to the wedding. The wedding was in La Canada and it should say something that we went all the way to Dana Point to get our cupcakes. Not only were the cupcakes the best I've had (and I've been all over LA) but the service was phenomenal.

I’m very disappointed about this place. Few time ordered the cakes for Birthdays (we live close) and every time we got the same taste (no matter what you order) of cheap kind of sugar margarine inside. And tastes every time worse.. But their prices are solid. Honestly, Ralph’s cakes or Whole Foods cakes are much better in my opinion. Me personally forgot about “All about the cake”.

Our Daughter-in-law ordered & paid for a Custom Birthday Cake for our sons 60th Birthday more than three weeks ahead of time. She contacted them several times making sure all arrangements were in order.
Four days before birthday All about the cake sent an email stating they were unable to fill her order. Of course it was too late to arrange for another bakery to build the cake do to the short time and a weekend involved before birthday party. I have no idea how a company like this could get a 4.8 out of 5 rating with this kind of service.
DO NOT TRUST THIS BUSINESS TO DELIVER WHEN PROMISED. If

Took pic of a cake I wanted them to copy and it was spot on maybe even better, downer was we ordered red velvet w/ cream cheese filling and received a chocolate cake with some sort of cream filling. Huge mistake for a cake we paid $200.00 for let alone all I wanted for this BIG bday was this special cake.

The first cake I got here was outstanding. The detail was phenomenal. It was a large skiing themed lemon and coconut cake. The second cake I got here was the smallest cake they had, had little imagination to it, missed the theme i requested and cost the same amount as the first cake. I was definitely disappointed because I felt the communication on the second cake was subpar and the price was outrageous. On this occasion I also ordered 6 cupcakes for children and told the person exactly what I wanted. The cupcakes I got were sticky and wet and had a weird frosting on them. They were nothing like

I cannot say enough great things about it's all about the cake. My husband and I have VERY different tastes in sweets and they were so accommodating with different flavors in each tier. Everything was DELICIOUS. we did a smaller cake with a dessert bar and everyone loved everything. From the tasting to the delivery it was seamless. I even added a birthday cake for my niece since my wedding fell on her birthday weekend. Not only did it taste amazing but it was beautiful.

This little bake shop was perfect for our wedding. We had a great tasting with dozens of flavor options that were all delicious. We chose to do a cutting cake and cupcakes and we did the chocolate cupcakes and the lemon cupcakes. I usually don't like lemon desserts, but these were so good we ended up getting them! They also had gluten free flavors that were really good that we ordered for our GF guests.
The design was simple and classic, which is exactly what we wanted and it looked beautiful with our flowers and greenery from Wildflower San Clemente.
The entire process was seamless from start
