Karat Cake - Custom cake, Bakery, Coffee

“I bought the Japanese light cheese cake, the cranberry pound cake, and a cup of coffee. Out of the three, the coffee was the best -- smooth, aromatic, and definitely something I would come back for. The cranberry pound cake tasted okay, but the texture felt more like a muffin than a traditional pound cake. However, the Japanese light cheese cake was honestly a big letdown. Yes, it's fluffy and airy, but the flavor was very bland with only a hint of cheesecake/cheese flavor. It didn't really taste like a cheesecake -- more like a plain sponge cake, which was disappointing. Coffee was good, but the desserts were just average for me.”

“This is a wonderful neighborhood cake shop. We have gotten birthday cake from here on two different occasions and both cakes were phenomenal. They have a lot of decorating and flavor options and flavor combos. If you text them they would send you a list of potential designs and you can pick from variety of combinations. The people working there are also very nice and considerate! Place is hype!”

“Its a very cute spot. Clearly family owned. The daughter works the register, the son manages the sitting area. It's honestly very endearing. The scallion bun is amazing and milk tea tastes better than most places I've had. If you want to support a local small family owned bakery, this is a good place to do so.”
