Full Belly Bakery

That focaccia is so good. I can't even get over it. I am an Italian descent and I know quite a bit about bread and focaccia and you have the golden touch. The dough is divine on its own and you have just the right amount of sea salt to really bring out the delicate flavors. I love that touch. I believe you must use a high-quality olive oil as well. Anyway, Yum! and thanks! The only thing I didn't like about the cake is I wish I would have ordered a bigger size. It was so good. The cake itself was so delicate and moist. The blackberry compote was absolutely decadent in it's richness and a wonderful pairing with the light and fluffy white cake.

This charming bakery in Montclair is a great find. There's a parking area nearby, plus street parking around the block near the Chevron gas station. The owner, who took my phone order, was super friendly and accommodating, even fulfilling our order on short notice. The 6-inch cake we ordered fed about eight people and was both delicious and beautifully made. While the cakes are on the pricier side ($54 for ours), the quality and service make it worth it. Definitely recommend!

Found them on TooGoodToGo , and, I remembered hearing about them from my daughter's dentist. I got my box , and, as well purchased a banana bread with caramel sauce. The box came with 4 cookies and two muffin/scone type treats. The cookies were chocolate chip, ginger, oatmeal and chocolate.All the cookies were ok, but the oatmeal, ginger and chocolate really stood out. Chewy, and buttery and perfect. The other items were good but the cookies took the lead in that box. THAT BANANA BREAD DRIZZLED WITH CARAMEL THO!!!! Just amazing. I'm upset it was so tiny. I would love a bigger loaf. It was so yummy

At long last, I have found a craveable cinnamon roll! (Why are they so hard to find?) The cream cheese icing is well-balanced, tangy, and not too sweet. I will definitely return for one of these brioche cinnamon rolls in the near future. Note: they are currently only available on Saturday and Sunday.I also picked up a chocolate chip cookie for my daughter and a walnut chocolate chip cookie for my husband. They both gave the cookies rave reviews. Glad to have Full Belly Bakery in the vicinity and look forward to returning one weekend soon.

Cute pastry shop conveniently located across from the Safeway in Montclair. Not open on Monday and Tuesday. A variety of different options including rolls and pastry. Now serving coffee so grab breakfast and walk around the village. The pies are excellent and my favorite is the key lime pie. Pre-order for special occasions. Staff is friendly and helpful as it is hard to choose. Support a local baker who was born and raised in Oakland.

New bakery in town! Located in the busy Montclair Village where the old Subway Sandwich establishment use to be. Parking is not easily found but a nice walk through the village is always great! The ambiance is trendy, small and casual.I walked in this weekend for the first time & was looking for a yummy cake to feed 14-16 people. Unfortunately they do not have pre-made cakes but I absolutely appreciated them offering to make one with a turn around of 2-3 hours. Any other establishment would have said "no we don't have any and we also can't do it" ...and would have just let the customer walk out the door to bring business elsewhere. So for this I admire their hustle. I was thrilled! I picked the 14-16 person guava, vanilla cake (tall) for $84.00 . I did not receive a call to let me know it was ready BUT they are very punctual and had my cake ready by the time we had a greed on/ the moment I picked it up. To my surprise the size of the cake is so small for 14-16 people although the cakes have tall size options, i was just amazed. I come from a family of cake lovers and was super bummed and worried this wouldn't be enough cake! So I had to run to Lucky's and just get a cheap 14 person Oreo cake to compensate from not having enough. I guess this cake is meant to be eaten in very very small pieces, they even include a card with their cakes on how to "maximize" your cake lol. You basically have to cut your cakes halfway point and give your guest the bottom part, while others get the top part with all of the writing and jelly on top. The taste was VERY sweet - someone went way too heavy on the sugar!!! The butter cream is too thick and it's obvious you're consuming butter. My family has a sweet tooth & everyone was amazed at how small the pieces were but mostly how sweet the cake was compared to the cheap Oreo cake... the Oreo cake was less sweet. I couldn't believe it. I really thought this was going to be an amazing cake and I wanted myself and family to be amazed but it just didn't happen with this one. Especially after the amazing customer service I experienced when I walked in. The price, the size, the sugar .. it just wasn't it. And I'm so bummed I won't purchase another cake from my local bakery. It was too expensive for such a mediocre experience. see attached picture for size reference. I will though purchase their focaccia and cinnamon rolls! The samples tasted heavenly! Which is why i was even more bummed about the cake.

When I arrived to the venue to see the cake that Eva created I was in total AWE! It was so stunning (photo attached). And delicious. All the guests were raving. To top it off, she's just an all together good soul, really easy to work with, very accommodating. I highly recommend working with her and Full Belly Bakery. Thank you!

Incredible cakes and delicious cookies! I can't wait to try the chocolate chip walnut cookie. Call in advance for a cake or show up spontaneously for a nummy treat!

We stopped by when looking for some desserts to bring to a dinner party the day of. The staff was so friendly and walked us through what was available for purchase that day and answered all our questions about ordering a cake in advance next time we plan on stopping by. The chocolate chip cookies, apple crumble loaf, and the mini turtle tarts were all incredibly delicious. I'm not typically a pecan fan, but the Turtle tart was by far my favorite thing we ordered. I will be getting it again very soon.Support this great local business! It's a great addition to Montclair, and it's worth stopping by for a quick treat or ordering ahead online- the cakes looked amazing. Looking forward to trying one in the near future.

My partner got me their signature Salted Caramel Chocolate cake for my birthday. It looks lovely and has all of my favorite cake flavors, so we thought for sure it would be perfect.Pros:Best buttercream I have had from any bakery in the Bay Area. Perfect density, texture, with just a hint of sweetness. I will definitely try other items because of this.The salted caramel sauce had a lovely balance of sweetness and salty. It leans a tad sweet so if used on other baked goods, I might want to use it sparingly, but for this cake, I almost wanted a bit more of it because of the upcoming con.Con:THE CAKE! How can this be your signature cake and the cake is not good?! We followed the directions of leaving it out of the fridge for several hours to get to room temp, so I don't think this is was user error. The cake was completely dry, bland, and had a disappointing texture. On top of all of that, if I had been blindfolded, I wouldn't have been able to tell it was a chocolate cake. I thought maybe the caramel sauce was covering the chocolate flavor as it's definitely more strongly flavored but no, it's simply lacking in any sort of meaningful chocolate. Given the sweetness of the sauce and the creaminess of the buttercream, I think leaning into a darker chocolate flavor with hints of the bitter notes would play really nicely. But that sponge was over baked, lacking in flavor, and didn't have a great mouthfeel. That's where more caramel sauce could have helped to moisten the cake.I don't know if they had an off day when they made this cake or if he picked up on from a case that had gone from frozen to defrosted, but if it's your signature cake, your sponge has to be on point.
