Joanie & Leigh’s Cakes

Unforgettable, in every way, and forever more, that’s how you’ll stay. For over ten years, I have been a customer of Joanie and Leigh’s Cakes prior Cake Divas. Recently, I took a hiatus re entertaining for few years. Last week, a last minute wedding for my assistant occured. Called Joanie and Leigh the day before and they delivered an incredible, unforgettable cake, The bride and groom enjoyed it, in every way and forever more a delicious cake. For a monumental event or to simply just celebrate life, this is the place. Yummy memories that are as sweet as one can get and will leave you with a memory for today and tomorrow.

We LOVED our wedding cake by Joanie & Leigh’s!!! We had an outstanding chocolate/​vanilla/​sea salt caramel as well as a red velvet with cream cheese and they both were to DIE for! Everyone said how much they loved our cake even non-​lovers of red velvet. They use organic ingredients which is a big plus for me. The design was beautifully executed as Joanie is an artist. We wanted a simple floral vine and that’s what we got. Highly recommend them!

Joanie and Leigh’s desserts were nothing short of spectacular at our wedding. They made us a small, simple two tier cake for cutting, and an unbelievable spread of mini desserts for our guests. Flourless chocolate cakes, caramel toffee cheesecakes, pumpkin pie shooters… the list goes on, and our guests raved about them.
Our tasting was one of the highlights of our planning process, too. They are so warm and were so helpful in suggesting treats. They even sent us off with sugar-​free desserts for my diabetic grandfather. Very wonderful bakery with very wonderful owners.

Joanie and Leigh were awesome to work with. Our wedding cake was beautiful, delicious, and exactly what we wanted. Everyone was drooling over it all night long. Their bakery is cute and was a fun escape from the other chores of wedding planning. I will definitely use them for other cakes and events in the future.

Ordered a cake for my sons first birthday and it was nothing short of amazing! Every single person at my party commented on how good the cake was and asked where it’s from. Joanie was such a pleasure to work with as well.
The cake turned out EXACTLY as I pictured and it was perfect!!! Definitely my new go to place for cakes!!!

I just tried:
Ding Dong — adorably individually wrapped in tinfoil. This chunky baby is enrobed in a thick layer of chocolate, and has a rich and moist chocolate cake & creamy filling. DELICIOUS! Definitely one of my fave things here.
Triple Chocolate Brownie — soft, moist & half cakey, half fudgy, super chocolatey
French Boule — a round loaf, soft in the middle & chewy on the outside, great with butter
So conveniently located next door to the little neighborhood market, this bakery is a gem!

Delicious, everything I have tried… banana cupcakes, eclairs, brownies, coffee cake.

PLEASE STAY AWAY! The beauty of Unilocal is that it allows consumers to know about business that are amazing and give great customer service and those on the opposite side of the spectrum that do shoddy work AND provide terrible customer service. Well, this place is an absolute joke! I placed an order for a birthday cake and when I went to pick it up, it was completely different than what I had specified! I tried speaking to the owner Leigh and she was incredibly rude!! Not only did she brush me away like I’M the crazy one, (what happened to the motto that the customer is always right???) but she made racial slurs and comments in front of other little children standing nearby! I wish I had the wherewithal to record her and share this w the local news. In any case, the beauty of Unilocal is it allows us to share such awful behavior and hopefully puts shameful businesses like on notice. I can’t believe what I witnessed at this bakery!

I just got married on Saturday, August 16, 2014 and had Joanie do our wedding cake and groom’s cake. She is PHENOMENAL! Our wedding package allowed us to choose from 4 cake vendors. But, we had a special family recipe that we wanted. Two of the four vendors flat out refused to make our recipe. Of the two left, Joanie and another lady, the taste test we did with the other lady left us with a bad taste in our mouth… literally. Joanie was our only hope, and boy did she over deliver! She NAILED our family recipe, was willing to work with us on every detail (we wanted 4 very specific fillings), and she was a joy to work with every step of the way. The wedding cake turned out perfectly!
I also asked Joanie to create a surprise Groom’s Cake in the form of my fiancé (now husband’s) dog. Joanie created the most incredible 3D cake and it was identical to our dog! Again, this cake was a special recipe with a special filling, and Joanie had no problem with making it to our specifications.
I really can’t say enough about Joanie and Leigh’s Cakes. I am SO HAPPY with both of our cakes and am incredibly grateful to Joanie for working with us on our recipe. I highly recommend them to everyone!!!

I have been going to Joan and Leigh for 5 years now and I must say they make the most beautiful and fabulous cakes. Thank you Joan for being so sweet and kind to me and my family, we are so grateful for the time and dedication you put in to making our dream cakes come true, I have to say you are amazing and I am looking forward to the next 5 years, there is no other place I will ever go to to have my Grandson cakes made and now that my daughter (who found you guys) is about to become a GodMommy, we get to eat your delicious cakes twice a year. Thank you!

We had Joanie & Leigh’s Cakes make our wedding cake. We discussed about what we wanted as she jotted down notes and began sketching out a cake with her colored pencils. We were thrilled to end up up with a cake that fit us perfectly. We also worked our way through all of their different flavors of cakes and fillings which was absolutely incredible in itself and gave us a whole lot to think about! On our wedding day, our cake arrived and was set up without a hitch and was absolutely amazing. Not only did it impress with its looks, the flavors blew our minds and there were endless comments from our guests about how much they enjoyed it. I would highly recommend Joanie and Leigh’s Cakes, not only for the amazing cake, but for the entire experience of designing and personalizing the cake with them! Writing this makes me want to order up another cake!

Fantastic bakery! We had the opportunity to have Joanie customize and design our wedding cake. She was highly recommended and did a phenomenal job with everything — turned out beautiful and elegant. The taste turned out amazing, too — and so delicious, all the guests LOVED it!
Most recently I went back to Joanie to have them do cakepops for a 2 year old birthday party — another MAJOR hit! Everyone was obsessed with how delicious and moist they were…
Simply the best bakery in town with amazing service! Thanks, Joanie!

I stopped into this new bakery for the first time today looking for treats for an office meeting. I bought the «baby maple pecan Danish» which was absolutely delightful! While I was there, they brought out some beautiful breads. This bakery is going to be a regular for my family!!!

We ordered our wedding cake from Joanie and Leigh and the result was spectacular. I had heard about the «cake divas» from a friend who swore that this was the cake to have in Los Angeles and boy was she right. Based on their reputation, I knew the cake would taste good, but beyond that it was so beautiful. I had 60 guests and we did a square white cake with blueberry colored blossoms randomly climbing the tiers. The cake was a simple vanilla with Bavarian cream and it was lovely and light. Delivery went off without a hitch. I asked Joanie for a cake topper at the last minute and she provided the sweetest, vintage bride and groom (with a real lace wedding dress and white tie!) The effect was stunning. Thank you Joanie and Leigh for adding this touch of class to our celebration.

I have to take a star away because I just cut into my top tier cake from the wedding. I had wanted a vanilla cake with passion fruit mousse and berries, but when I cut into the cake, there were no berries :(During the wedding I only got a piece of the marble cake, which was delicious; I’m just disappointed in finding out the cake wasn’t exactly what I wanted. It was still tasty nevertheless :)
