Today I had a cake tasting with Susie Cakes at their Newport Beach location. I don't know where to begin... Susie Cakes is styled after an old fashioned all American Bake Shop. The space itself is clean, lacks unattractive clutter, and decorated in soft tones that reflect 1950s Kitchen Aid appliances. They have a great selection of small gifts, paper products and greeting cards that are great if you are picking up a birthday treat or gift.
The tasting itself was phenomenal! I tried three different flavors, Red Velvet with cream cheese frosting, Chocolate Cake with vanilla butter cream frosting and Vanilla cake with vanilla butter cream frosting. All of which were so good it makes it hard to choose. If it were my cake I would go with the red velvet, its by far the best I have had, and I must admit I am kind of a bake shop snob. The other two flavors were also irresistible and when I brought the left-overs home to my fiancé; lets just say there was nothing left!
The wonderful taste of Susie Cakes and the pleasant atmosphere was accompanied by friendly smiles and a great knowledgeable staff. Lindsay (Susie's Newport Beach Manager) was as sweet as the cakes and definitely made my experience wonderful. Even if you have ordered your cake, feed your sweet tooth at this great little bakery by grabbing a cupcake or one of their amazing cookies.
