Through The Looking Glass Cakes & Bakin Studio

Had a fantastic birthday party for my 13 year old here. She's an avid baker and we wanted something that was age appropriate but also not trivial skills, and this was perfect. The kids learned several techniques about cake decorating (different tips, flower building, using various accessories, effects of temperature, etc) that were all legit professional methods, not kid-themed free-for-alls. Each of them got to decorate several cupcakes and everyone had a blast.Definitely recommend this or any of the similar classes, it was great for any age!

Kids absolutely loved the baking camp and want to do it every summer until they go off to college!The baking studio is beautifully decorated and themed, and everything is spotless and organized before the day starts. This is pretty important given that there are about ten kids working on their baking creations, some of whom have little to no kitchen experience at all.Shanna and her helpers were enthusiastic, friendly, and genuine with both the children and parents. From the very first impression to the end of each day, she made sure everyone felt valued and accomplished. Little things, like helping with a cake topper when she absolutely did not need to, or making extra icing because someone ran out - these add up and speak to a genuine passion for teaching these young bakers.Over the course of a 4 day camp, they made French bread, pop tarts, cookies, and mini cakes, all of which were impressive both in appearance and taste. They also had opportunities to help prepare their own lunches and learned about the food that they ate. What an amazing and education experience!

Shanna made my baby's 1st birthday very special. We ordered a Mr.ONEderful tuxedo cake, spice cake with apple compote. Delicious! Even cooler, 1st birthday cakes come with a complimentary smash cake! It was a perfect mini cake with a top hat. She was very easy to work with, flexible, open to whatever I needed/wanted. Thank you Shanna!

Newly opened bakery and decided to give it a try. The cinnamon rolls are so good! There's other flavors so far I've tried blueberry and strawberry. Both good but the regular cinnamon roll is the best. The cream cheese frosting is amazing. Also the oatmeal cookie sandwich with marshmallow in the middle is super yummy. I like trying something new each time. I recommend trying it out! Also the owner she's really sweet!

I had my daughter's 8th birthday here and it was a wonderful experience. From initial contact to the very end of party, Shana is enthusiastic and gracious. I really appreciate the details and the whole ambiance of the venue.She and her staff took their time to teach and help the kids decorate. They were patient and enthusiastic and made it a very enjoyable and fun party. The cupcakes were also delicious! I would definitely recommend Looking Glass Cakes.

My daughter had so much fun at Through the Looking Glass Cakes summer baking camp. She made a loaf of sweet French bread, decorated sugar cookies, strawberry pop tarts, and mini cakes. They also helped make their own lunches at the camp. Such a fun and yummy experience. I love how clean and organized the kitchen was too. They offer kids baking workshops, adult baking workshops, and mommy and me classes too. My daughter is looking forward to doing more camps and workshops there in the future. ‍

Went to this new bakery in the Pocket area this morning. It is such a cute place...made me happy just walking in! Had to buy a little bit of everything because it all looked so fun and delicious! The Monte Cristo roll was amazing. Texture and balance of flavors was soooo good, very creative.... wish we had purchased more! Also, had the Blueberry Cinnamon Roll...the texture of the roll combined with the just-right balance of blueberry cinnamon and perfect-sweetness cream cheese frosting was a yummy surprise. My husband had the cinnamon roll and was also impressed. The oatmeal cookie sandwich filled with marshmallow cream...OMG!!! (Glad we bought 2!). It is not only a place to by scrumptious treats and special-order baked goods (including cakes, cookies, cupcakes, etc.), but it is set up for private baking classes as well! Checked out the website after getting our fill and found they offer kids summer camps, scheduled baking classes and private events. Can't wait to invite girlfriends for a private baking class! So nice to have such a unique and creative offering in Sacramento! Open limited hours so check the website before coming. Going back tomorrow to get more! :)
