Sweet & Saucy Shop

Just had my wedding Saturday and my cake was not only beautiful but delicious! Everyone kept complimenting how good the cake tasted, I got the birthday cake, coconut, carrot cake, strawberry and the cinnamon cake flavors and that buttercream was amazing! The 5 tiers were beautiful, and some of them were hand piped. Definitely would recommend this shop and will use this shop for my future events.

Adorable. It doesn’t look like much from the outside, but this cute little dessert shop has a sweet filling.
I was just looking for something sugary after lunch and stumbled upon Sweet & Saucy. It was empty, but the décor and display of desserts made it feel bright and cheery. The woman at the counter was friendly and helpful, offering her person favorites of the cupcake varieties.
The minis were the perfect size to satisfy my after-​lunch sweet tooth without putting me in a coma. I had the birthday cake, which tasted just as it promised, like a funfetti cake! I also took home a few others for friends; everyone enjoyed them. Plus they were affordable, and there’s sort of a shortage of sweet shops (or maybe I have an overactive sweet tooth) – so I’ll be stopping in again soon!

Sweet & Saucy Shop was the first cake shop we’ve gone in selecting our wedding cake. The wedding cake tasting and the designing was fun. Our wedding cake was the one thing I couldn’t wait to see and was looking for on the day of our wedding. We gave them our cake design and the flavors we wanted on all 5 layers. We were pleased when I finally saw our wedding cake! It was perfect, beautiful and the flavor we chose on each layers were yummy!

This place is amazing I would recommend the lemon cream, candy bar, and praline cinnamon roll. The bread is so soft and the icing is so smooth and creamy, especially the fillings best cupcake or cake place I’ve ever tasted ! This is my go to place when I need to buy someone a present for a special event now talented and creative bakers we have here in long beach. $ 1.75 mini cupcake $ 3.25 for normal cupcake… it may seem pricey but when you taste them you’ll see why it’s a more than fair price

The staff did not acknowledge at all. When I opened the box, one cupcake was fallen over. The cupcakes were too sweet.

Sweet & saucy
Sweet & simple
Sweet & clean
The look is very simple on the outside but as you enter the first thing that comes to mind is very clean. They have cute tables/​chairs if you want to eat your dessert here. I can tell that the staff is really professional since they cater to events and birthdays. Very approachable I would say.
While my eyes glazed across each individual assortment of cupcakes from regular to mini, cakes pops, macarons, slices cakes, cookies. Ooh yeah!!! What to choose?! I want them all but can only budget on a couple, what a shame haha.
I remember coming here a couple years back to order a dozen cake pops and a mini birthday cake. The cake pops are to die for!!! There birthday cake pops are so popular that when I came back this was the only thing that was missing from there display. It was all gone :(but yes try the cake pops. I suggest birthday cake, strawberry, lemon, and vanilla cake pops.
Okay so onto the present time… I needed some sweets in my life so I got the original red velvet cupcake and the lemon cupcake. Let me tell you when I took a bite, the cake was very moist and the frosting was softly sweet. I didn’t have a cupcake hangover so that means this place doesn’t put a ton of sugar into this product! Thank you! I’ve been to so many cupcake places that either the cake is dry that everything falls apart or the frosting is soo sweet from all the sugar that I die from sweetness! Haha just kidding! But seriously, have you ever experience that?!
Anyways, the prices for reg $ 3.25, mini $ 1.75, and cake pop under $ 2 I think?

I really wish the cupcake was a little bigger — especially the top portion. Being the cost of the cupcake, you would want a little more and little bigger than the average size homemade cupcake size pan cupcakes. Also pretty disappointed that at 3pm they don’t have a lot of «normal» flavored cupcakes — such as vanilla on vanilla or vanilla on chocolate or chocolate on vanilla and chocolate on chocolate. If they are popular items, than make more of them. Frosting has good flavor and not too much either which actually is perfect because often times their is way too much frosting.

I decided to go to Sweet and Saucy to try their cupcakes and get an inquiry for a customized birthday cake for my daughter’s 1^st birthday after tasting their cake at my co-​workers party. I had to wait a bit for a consultant since they were all busy with phone calls. The consultant finally comes out and did not seem interested to help me. She did not even introduce herself or give information about their cakes and prices. She just asked to see a picture of the cake I wanted. After looking at the picture and adding the total on her phone, she gives me a surprising quote for the cake without even explaining how she got that total. After I told her what my budget was, she didn’t offer alternatives or ways to help meet my budget. She was very unhelpful and seemed like she did not want to be bothered.
I did purchase mini cupcakes from them. It was good. Too bad I won’t be purchasing a cake from them. Their desserts are good, but their customer service needs to be way better.

I walked in on a Saturday afternoon, looking for some sweets to bring to a grad party. Lo and behold, I was met with a barrage of beautiful cupcakes and desserts. I opted for a dozen of the mini variety and was tempted to throw in a bunch of other goodies. Next time, next time…
The cupcakes were a hit. They are a sight to see when opening the box, and people were able to pick their poison. I was only able to taste one, and I loved it, so I’ll have to go back and get more for myself. :)

I am in charge of the birthday celebrations at work, and discovered Sweet & Saucy on a morning walk.
On my initial visit, the staff was helpful in explaining costs, flavors, packaging, and pickup, so much so that I decided to try them for the next office celebration. They were a HUGE hit in the office. I order a regular for the Birthday person, and different minis for the rest of us. I like that I can change up the flavors, and do so regularly. Compared to a simple sheet cake from a local grocery store they are more expensive, but the variety of flavor choices available and the time to cut up & cleanup a sheet cake, there is no comparison – cupcakes are the way to go.
I am able to order via email, pay over the phone and they have the order ready for pick up the next day when specified.
I have been ordering for my office over a year now, and there has not been one mistake or missed delivery.

The inside of this place was very cutely decorated. The motif is very girly. But the best thing about this place is is their amazing cupcakes! I love their strawberry cupcake– it’s sweet with just a little tiny tart taste of the strawberry at the end. The only reason I gave this place a 4 out of 5 is because although it has cute decorations, the energy is a little lackluster with low lighting and no music. But besides that, this place is amazing!

THANK YOU S&S! I’m not sure how it’s possible for you guys to consistently create masterpiece cakes that taste as amazing as they look, but you do. Your decorators/​bakers are– no joke-​mean business-​bad to the bone– artists. This is my 3^rd custom bday cake. Well done. This 3^rd time around I was a little unsure b/​c the week before I ordered a smash cake that was off the mark in colour & taste a bit. But lo and behold you guys came thru again. I don’t give 5 star reviews lightly. I need food to look good, be clean & taste great. You guys deliver. We ordered a triple tier cake this time around, with Candy Bar flavor. The chocolate ganache is quality chocolate & perfect texture. Cake was moist like a cake pop, unbelievable! The cake was a business card itself, ppl kept asking where the cake was from. Whoever made this cake and/​or decorated it– hats off… We salute you… A-​mazing!

I had no problems ordering a Cars themed smash cake for my son’s 3^rd birthday a week prior to his birthday. Picked it up for his birthday and was so excited for it! It came out exactly the way he wanted! He absolutely loved it! Thank you!

They have really good cake pops and home made cookie ice cream sandwiches. The cupcakes are pretty good, but they are pricey. I really like the cookie dough and peanut butter cup cupcakes. My kids like the s’mores, chocolate and birthday cake cupcakes.
It’s better to go there earlier in the day. They have a bigger variety and the cupcakes are more fresh. I tend to come in the evenings when they run out of half the cupcakes we wanted.

Thank you very much for the cake pops for my recent baby shower ok 4÷16÷16.
My guests enjoyed them!
I love your desserts and I will forever be a customer.

Thank you Sweet & Saucy team for making my son’s 2^nd birthday special with the awesome batman cake. It was a hit. It not only looked incredible but tasted incredible too. People who don’t usually like cake told me how much they enjoyed it. You guys rock! Would highly recommend Sweet & Saucy for special occasion cakes. Their Nutella cupcakes are awesome too.

Still giving this place one star. What made me update is that my wedding anniversary rolled around on the 21^st, and yes, we froze a piece of the cake. Just as tasteless as the day of the wedding and I cut the portion off that they misspelled. Oh well, this too shall pass, but not for many, many, more years.

I can’t give this place 4 stars because I am not a fan, I will stick with my original cupcake shop. There were a few people before me while I was waiting, I took this as an opportunity to figure out what I was going to order since I was getting a dozen minis for a birthday the next day. As I am looking nobody acknowledges me I am just there for a few minutes standing and staring. I observe one of the workers an older lady go out of her way to open the door for a customer who was more than capable of doing it herself I thought that was nice I guess because she had the big box in one hand I’m not sure.
Anyways someone finally decides to help me as I tell her I want to order a dozen minis she gets a box and asks me to pick. I choose a good variety making sure to get 2 of everything. I take notice that a lot of the ones I am taking are the last few, and it did not look like they were replacing cupcakes it was around 3−4ish. After finishing I move up to the register to pay she asks me if I am eating these today or tomorrow I say tomorrow she tells me store it at room temp and then wraps the box in seran. Good tip considering I would have just put them in the fridge, don’t think that would have made any difference on the taste.
After I pay I take my box and purse I kind of have to juggle on this part I made a poor decision on how to hold things. I felt it was kind of rude for the lady who helped me not to at least offer to open the door for me considering the great deal she went through to open the door for the person before me as I described. She didn’t even offer, so whatever it is in my greatest opinion that all customers should be treated the same, don’t do one thing for someone and not even try with the next.
Whatever, so the next day when I opened the cupcakes the frosting was so hard I was kind of grossed out because these compared to the other ones I bought could not even match. Also, they put tons of frosting right in the center of MINI cupcakes every cupcake was filled it was to sweet nobody even bothered eating the entire cupcake because there was nothing but frosting. Definitely not impressed with the taste or the service of this place, the only reason I even tried it was because my cousin requested it for her birthday. She liked the ones I brought from my original cupcake lady better that day. Nice try though!

I have been following Sweet & Saucy Shop on Instagram for quite a while now and I can’t get over the quality of their cakes and their gorgeous designs! Plus, everything always looks so good and Melody’s kids are just gorgeous and fun to «follow» online.
After noticing all of my likes on this page, my husband surprised me with a trip to the Long Beach location and I was sooooo excited!!! I couldn’t figure out what flavor cupcake I wanted so I got a dozen of the mini cupcakes instead!!! lol. I got a bunch of flavors and tried almost all of them myself and I must say they were ALL very good! The salted caramel macaroon was also very tasty as was the Oreo cake pop. Too bad they’re so far away (or maybe that’s a good thing lol).
The girl at the counter was super friendly and even recommended some best sellers for me to try. I even got to meet Melody’s mom while I was in the shop! She’s the sweetest! They have some cute stuff for sale in the shop like kids aprons and baking kits too. The sample cakes they have on display are just gorgeous and the seating area in the front of the store is fabulous! Come check out this beautiful shop and have one of everything like I did! ;) Yuuummm!!!
Congrats on the amazing success Melody!

The Best cupcakes in the world! And I don’t even like cupcakes but would always make a trip here if I’m in Laguna Beach or Newport Beach. Trust me you will thank me if you have a sweet tooth! They are awesome and you will never look at another cupcake the same way. Love at first bite !! Located in Crystal Cove shopping center same plaza as Trader Joe and some other great restaurants !

Gorgeous store, huge selection of super tasty cupcakes!
They also design wedding cakes, as we saw a couple cake testing (so cute!)
The selection is endless and they offer both a regular as well as a mini size.
I went with a few minis to be able to sample more and they are priced fairly at just under $ 2, the regular ones just under $ 4.
Service was great, everything was very fresh and tasted great.
Soft cake, not too sweet frosting, perfect combination.
Love the décor and white airy vibe inside, easy parking on the street on front.

So yummy yum yum! This is one of the cutest bakeries I’ve ever been to. I absolutely love the set up. Very classy and chic furniture and décor. When you first walk in to your immediate right is a seating area and to your immediate left is the display case of all their goodies. They have so many treats to choose from. I like how they offer different sizes in their treats so it allows you to try more flavored without getting overwhelmed.
I originally Came here to pick up a birthday cake for my God daughter’s baptism/​second birthday and couldn’t help but get a few cupcakes to go as well. The cupcakes are so light, fluffy, and moist. And the frosting is just right with the sweetness. Due to it being a Saturday and me picking up the cake late around 2 or 3 pm there wasn’t many cupcake flavor a to choose from.
Cake was a raspberry lemon cake. Absolutely yummers! The cake was so moist And the tartness from the raspberry and lemon complemented well with the sweetness of the frosting.
Lemon crème– was this soft and moist cake with a lemony curd in the middle topped with a lemony sweet frosting. Very yum!
Pecan cinnamon bun– this was so good. Had chunks of pecan throughout the cupcake and wasn’t too sweet
The staff is ok, and can be sort of standoff-​ish especially if they’re busy. When I came to pick up my cake they were kind of disorganized because it took a little while to find my cake.
Parking is and can be a nightmare. There is street parking and very limited parking in them private lot.
I’ll be back to try more flavors and satisfy my sweet tooth.

Stopped by here with my sister since she was pulling godmother duties and picking up a cake for her goddaughter’s birthday party.
First impressions: a cute and quaint little bakery. There were two groups doing wedding cake tastings and all the samples looked ridiculously good! The lady at the counter greeted us as soon as we walked in. She was patient and provided good taste descriptions as I purused her display case. I could hardly choose, everything looked too good!
I ended up getting two cupcakes as a post workout splurge.
Lemon Crème: my favorite! Soft, tart and moist lemon cake with a lemony frosting that wasn’t too sickly sweet. Surprised by the lemon curd filling I found in the center. Lord, I died and gone to heaven. I wanted to run back for seconds.
Pecan Cinnamon Bun: sticky and gooey with good chunks of pecans interspersed throughout. A joy to eat. I think I tasted a hint of bourbon in the cupcake, or is that wishful thinking? I wonder if I can request a bourbon vanilla glaze for my next experience with this sticky delight?
I have a friend who is getting ready to do wedding cake taste testing… Can’t wait to recommend this spot!
