Nancy's Bakery - Altadena

What an absolute jewel of this shop is. We had made our pastries wedding cake from Nancy Oh boy, it wasn't disappointed. When we had to go, try cakes from different vendors, everything we could talk was the cakes from this store. The owner was also very helpful about the cakes know what could not work. I remember being most excited to have cakes at the wedding more than the other parts of the wedding! We love their cake so much we will come back every year for a slice on our anniversary.

I've got a few chocolate crocolate cakes here. I ordered one for the 60th and one for me. I wish there was a thicker layer of chocolate goose, but that's okay, still delicious. Good quality cake, good mousses and delicious goose. My kind of cake. If I had a wedding reception with cake, I would get one if this, they make good looking, elegant cake. I wish her website was up so you could see all the options, but at least you can call on the phone and order.

We go back and I've been a fan of her pastries for years! I plan on returning some time soon.

The Baklava- for the love of all that is good in this world, try the Baklava! It's the best in Los Angeles. It's Altadenas little secret.... shhh... don't tell. Actually, TELL EVERYONE!

I got a cake from Nancy's for my mom's birthday. It was chocolate cake with chocolate ganache and filling. It was delicious. It was huge too, but worth it. My mom enjoyed it. I asked that they put on a design of circles, inspired by Wasily Kandinsky. Eh, it didn't turn out so well, but that's ok. The hand lettered piping wasn't the best either, but it was legible. Still, it was delicious, and I'd like to celebrate other occasions with a cake from Nancy's.
